Landbay Slashes Rates on Five-Year BTL Mortgages

Good news for landlords! Landbay, known for its expertise in the buy-to-let (BTL) sector, has just announced a significant reduction in its five-year fixed mortgage rates. This change means more savings and better deals for those looking to invest in rental properties.

The Details

Landbay’s latest move sees a drop of up to six basis points (0.06%) in the rates for its standard five-year fixed product range. This reduction is a big win for landlords, making these mortgages more budget-friendly.

Key Changes:

  • The new starting rate is now 4.65%, a noticeable decrease that makes these mortgages more accessible.
  • The fee structure for these products is variable, offering more flexibility to landlords.

Additionally, Landbay has adjusted the minimum loan size for some of its products, tailoring their offerings to better fit landlords’ diverse needs.
