The lender is also continuing its exclusive five-year fixed rate product, with a two-year ERC, priced at 4.5%, which is available through Brightstar Financial, Commercial Trust, Complete FS, Crystal Specialist Finance, First 4 Bridging, Positive Lending, Rangewell, SPF, Sirius, Synergy Commercial, The BTL Broker, Watts Commercial, Vibe Financial Services and Yellowstone Finance.

Rob Oliver (pictured), sales director at Castle Trust Bank, said: “It’s now more than a year since we became a bank, and one of the many advantages is that it gives us greater flexibility in our product development and pricing. We have already seen the popularity of our HMO, holiday let and bridge-to-let products amongst brokers and we hope to make them even more attractive to a wider group of customers, with even keener pricing.

“We are also continuing to support our distribution partnerships with a new buy-to-let exclusive available up to 70% LTV and the continuation of our 5-year fixed rate exclusive with a two-year ERC.”
