Tom Jacob, Director of Product and Marketing at Foundation Home Loans, said:
“Last week we were able to announce a number of rate cuts across our Special buy-to-let products and this time we have been able to review all our core range pricing, making cuts by up to 30 basis points across the widest range of mortgages.

“There are price cuts across our three product tiers, F1 through to F3, for more specialist property types and those with more recent blips on their credit rating, and in a number of niche areas such as our EPC Saver products which provide full and comprehensive EPC information for a landlord. Additionally, there are pricing improvements across the remortgage-only products, mortgages for those seeking larger loans, or those who are seeking to add to, or remortgage, properties within larger portfolios.

“Our focus is always on both price competitiveness but also ensuring we have the widest range of specialist products for those landlord and property niches that many borrowers are now fully engaged with, and who require specific mortgage criteria depending on their needs and circumstances.

“This is a full core product review with multiple changes across multiple products, so we would urge advisers to look at the new product guide for full details, engage with our sales team representatives, and to speak to us about how we can best support the needs of their landlord borrowers.”
