Leek BS strengthens support for limited company landlords

Published on

Leek Building Society has expanded its limited company buy-to-let mortgage proposition, introducing a series of enhancements aimed at improving support for brokers and streamlining the application process.

The lender’s range of limited company buy-to-let products includes both fixed and discounted rate mortgages, available up to 75% loan-to-value.

The offering is tailored specifically for landlords who invest through limited companies.

Among the key improvements is the provision of direct access to experienced underwriters, enabling faster and more flexible decision-making.

Unlike many high street lenders, Leek does not rely on automated credit scoring. Instead, each application is assessed individually, a move the society believes allows for a more personal and pragmatic approach to underwriting.

The society has also invested in enhanced broker support, offering intermediaries access to a dedicated business development manager and a central intermediary support team.

These changes are designed to give brokers the tools and relationships they need to progress cases efficiently and with confidence.

In addition, Leek’s intermediary portal has been upgraded to include online Decision in Principle submissions and live case tracking, further reducing delays and helping brokers manage cases from initial enquiry through to completion.

Nikki Warren-Dean (pictured), head of the intermediary mortgage team at Leek Building Society, said: “We know how important limited company lending has become in the buy-to-let market, and our offering is built to support brokers working in this space.

“Whether it’s straightforward applications or more complex cases, we provide the flexibility, access, and consistency brokers need to deliver for their clients.”
