Together has launched a new, lower-rate proposition for landlords with two or more properties who are seeking finance of more than £1m.

The specialist lender’s new offering supports intermediaries’ clients who have faced increasing rates and tax pressures, as well as the impact of the Renters’ Rights Act in the past few years.

The proposition’s rates start from 4.69%, which is lower than its standard buy-to-let (BTL) product rates, standardised single monthly payments across the overall portfolio via one direct debit, one affordability assessment and one maturity date, and a personal guarantee.

Dudley Building Society has confirmed its new mortgage origination platform is now available to all brokers following a successful phased launch earlier this year.

Delivered in partnership with Ohpen, the cloud-based platform forms part of its wider digitisation programme and has been designed to improve the broker experience by reducing administration, speeding up processes and providing greater visibility throughout the broker journey.

The system aims to reduce paperwork and signatures, with only the mortgage deed still requiring a signature. Brokers are also set to benefit from real-time case updates and access to key documents directly through the system, reducing the need to manually chase for progress updates or decision in principle certificates.

Foundation has launched a new range of BTL special products, including two- and five-year fixed rate options at 80% LTV, with 3% and 4% fee options respectively.

The new products, which are available on its F1, standard HMO and MUFB ranges, are designed to broaden choice for brokers and landlord clients, with competitive rates alongside higher product fees.

The specialist lender’s new F1 special products start from 5.09% on a two-year fix, while its five-year product is available from 5.69%. On its F2 HMO special range, two- and five-year products start from 5.19% and 5.79% respectively, while on its F2 MUFB special products, rates start from 5.29% and 5.89% on two- and five-year options.

InterBay has strengthened its BTL proposition with a series of enhancements designed to give brokers greater flexibility to support a wider range of specialist BTL transactions.

The refreshed range introduces a new 65% LTV option, providing brokers with greater choice when matching products to their clients’ borrowing requirements.

The lender has also launched a dedicated £10m to £25m pricing band, enabling larger transactions to benefit from more competitive pricing tailored to higher loan amounts.
