if you was to get a mortgage for a house that has a business attached to it would the mortgage be worked out from what you earn now or from what you would earn from the business aswell if you have the past 3 years accounts for the business?

Unless the whole lots considered to be a commercial property (i.e. a self contained flat above a pub or such like) then I cant see them taking projected income into account.

75k turnover from keeping folks muts when they go away on holiday........must be like 101 dalmations in that house 
Do you not need to have a business plan or business loan then if its to be a registered business & have the house down as a business asset or something??

i dont know  its something i said i would like to do in afew years if we can get some money behind us, but if we could find a ready made business and get the mortgage company to recognise the business turnover as potential income, thatwould make life a hell of alot easyer, dont know if it works like that though

Im mostly confused if it becomes a business premises or a residential home operating a small business 
I think you'd best speak to a solicitor as its not going to be as straight laced as just getting a mortgage!!

You wont get a mortgage whilst on benefits. It's the sub prime lot like you who are responsible for the down turn.
Get a job, stop sponging my taxes and try again in a few years?

75k turnover won't be much profit

It won't work like that.
A past income with a previous owner doesn't guarantee that you will run the business in the same manner.
If it worked like that they'd be lending you a load of money whilst you shut down the business and lost all their cash.

I was thinking that... sounds like it would be pretty long working hours and quite comitted, and I would imagine plenty of cost involved too

Impossible to say really - they may have zero overheads, very little running costs, etc. and be making £60k a year.

Well thats a given tbh.
What exactly are you purchasing here - a business with a house as part of its assets. Or a house and the business comes seperate?

Arent really any, and then you name two.
What about insurance? Rates? Water? Cleaning products? etc. etc. It'll have plenty of costs no matter if they dont employ staff.
How is the deal structured - are they just setting a price for the house and the business comes with it? Or is the business increasing the cost of the house?
Only reason I ask is you will not get a standard mortgage on it if the business is included in the sale price.

You would also need special business insurance which probably won't come cheap, public liability insurance etc etc.
There are LOTS of things you need to consider.
As for it helping you get a morgage VERY unlikely in the current market unless you have a rock solid business plan and a bank willing to listen

yes but how many family members does it take to run this business? ...and at what rate will you pay them?

Sounds like more of an investment for someone who has the "cash" to invest, rather than borrow on the never-never

No mortgage company will offer you a mortgage based upon potential earnings with business attached or not you either need a larger mortgage to cover the cost which you will need to have a large deposit. Or you would need a business loan with a very carefully planned business plan to buy the business only and even then no guarantee. However this way I guess isn't a possibility because the business could then have to be sold seperatly and then you could run into issues with rates etc.

On top of food, utilities, insurance etc you will also have to factor in vets bills. They aren't cheap!
Then there is the upkeep of the property, say if a fence falls down or a leak occurs.
Also, What if you want to go on holiday. You can't just ask the neighbour to pop round and feed you're dog. You will have to find someone to stay there and pay them.
You also need to think about the businesss in itself. People may only go to that place because they like the person or know them very well. It may well have a 75k turnover now but when you get it, Whats saying that the current customers will stay, they may go somewhere else as you can't offer the same service as them. So you will need to advertise and get you're name around to try and get the business up and running again.
I looked into buying a small company and to be honest, It's far easier to set up from scratch than get something that is already running (Imo) as if its already running, you may have to change a lot of things to get it running better and generating the business to make a good profit after paying all the overheads and unexpected things.
You wouldn't want to do it all for £1 at the end would you?

I no some one who runs a buisness exactly the same as your refering to, family run just the 2 of them ect and granted they turn over alot but there are alot of out goings in this kind of buisness, and very long hours, up at 6 done by about 8 most people think its easy but it really isnt, having said that they love it so it dont matter, they also have cats to look after and a few of there own horses but still it isnt a easy as you may think, but all the best if you do go for it worth a try if thats what you want to do they have a good life from it
