Damian Thompson (pictured), director of mortgages at Aldermore, said: “We are pleased to announce the latest updates to our proposition for residential and buy-to-let mortgages. The latest changes come at a time when it is vital to provide support in a challenging housing market – whether they are a first time buyer with little or no deposit or a landlord looking to invest in a new property or remortgage an existing one.
“At Aldermore, our human approach to lending enables us to consider each case on an individual basis so we can support a range of home buyers. We pride ourselves on supporting individuals’ needs and aspirations and we are constantly looking to improve our proposition to do so.”
