For properties valued between £70,000 and £75,000, the maximum available LTV is 75%.

Grant Hendry, director of sales at Foundation, commented: “This significant buy-to-let refresh reflects our determination to provide brokers with both greater choice and stronger pricing across a wide range of landlord scenarios.

“We have reduced rates across almost the entire buy-to-let range.

“Combined with reducing our minimum buy-to-let property value to £70,000, these changes provide brokers with more ways to support their landlord clients.

“Several products now sit in highly competitive positions within the market, including products that are at or near the top of the sourcing tables in their respective categories.

“As a specialist lender, our focus remains on responding quickly to market opportunities and ensuring advisers have access to solutions that meet the diverse needs of today’s landlords, whether they are purchasing, remortgaging, expanding portfolios or investing in more specialist property types.”
