A tailored mortgage lending approach for letting opportunities

Purchasing properties to let is a delicate balancing act for prospective buyers, and finding the right mortgage can often be a minefield. That’s why we take a flexible lending approach, individually underwriting our BTL mortgages to accommodate all kinds of buyers.

Our buy-to-let mortgages are for both established landlords and people entering the market for the first time. We consider various financial situations, including those fully supported by rental income or where personal income is required to help cover the costs.

Working directly with intermediaries, we can untangle even the most unusual property needs, tailoring our mortgage solutions accordingly.

If you’re an intermediary or professional mortgage adviser, any eligible application you submit to us will be carefully reviewed by our specialist underwriters.

Key features of our flexible Buy-to-Let mortgages
  • We accept first-time buyers and landlords, plus experienced ones
  • Top-slicing options are available
  • We consider non-owner-occupied properties for BTL mortgage lending
  • Each applicant’s situation is individually assessed
