The Teachers returns to the buy-to-let market

Published on

The Teachers Building Society has launched two new buy-to-let products.

The deals are a purchase mortgage and remortgage and are available direct and through intermediaries.

The remortgage offers a fee-free deal – no arrangement or valuation fee and free legals.

  • Overall cost for comparison is 5.6% APR
  • Available for loans up to 75% LTV
  • £1499 arrangement fee and £99 application fee
  • Early Repayment Charge (ERC) applicable
  • Minimum income for main applicant £20,000
