Rob Stanton, sales and distribution director at Landbay, said: “While market conditions remain volatile, we’re committed to reacting quickly when opportunities arise to improve pricing, helping brokers access lower rates across our Premier, Core and Specialist ranges alongside an expanding product offering.

“These latest reductions, together with the launch of new 65% LTV products and the expansion of our Tier 2 criteria, give brokers even more options to support landlords with a wide range of borrowing requirements.

“We know advisers need a combination of competitive pricing, product choice and certainty of service. That’s why we’re continuing to invest across our range, helping brokers place both straightforward and more specialist buy-to-let cases with confidence.”
