In a move that could benefit landlords and property investors, Lendco and LendInvest have announced cuts to their buy-to-let (BTL) mortgage rates. These reductions come at a time when borrowers are seeking more competitive pricing and financial stability in the mortgage market.
What are the new rates from Lendco?
Lendco has introduced new two-year fixed rates across all property types. For single asset properties, rates begin for loans up to a certain amount. Additionally, borrowing for Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) and Multi-Unit Blocks (MUB) with loan sizes up to a certain amount also starts at the same level. For larger loans, rates begin at a slightly higher level. These adjustments reflect a reduction across their two- and five-year fixed-rate products.
How has LendInvest adjusted its rates?
LendInvest has implemented a rate cut across its two- and five-year fixed-rate BTL products. The lowest rates now start at a competitive level. According to Rod McPherson, head of distribution at LendInvest, this change aims to provide brokers and their clients with additional financial flexibility.
What does this mean for the mortgage market?
These rate cuts are significant for landlords and property investors looking to secure more affordable financing options. With LendInvest’s rates now starting lower than Lendco’s, brokers may find it easier to assist clients in accessing competitive mortgage products. As the mortgage market evolves, landlords should keep an eye on further changes in mortgage rates and consider how these adjustments could impact their investment strategies.
