Paragon has reduced borrowing rates across its range of buy-to-let mortgage products, available at up to 80% loan-to-value.
The deals, which are suitable for individual and limited company landlords, come with a mix of low fees, starting at 0.25%, or zero product fees, free mortgage valuations and cash back offers.
The range for portfolio landlords - those with four or more mortgaged properties - being offered by the specialist bank and buy-to-let lender includes fixed rates starting at 2.75% for those looking to purchase or remortgage single, self-contained units (SSCs) and 2.85% for landlords seeking finance for houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) and multi-unit blocks (MBUs).
There is a selection of discount variable rates available starting at 2.65% for SSCs and 2.8% for HMOs and MUBs.
Highlights for portfolio landlords include a five-year and two-year fixed rate at 3.19% and 2.75% respectively. Both rates come with free valuation and £350 cashback.
Fixed and discount variable rates for non-portfolio landlords start at 3.45% and 2.65% on SSCs.
The increase in portfolio and complex buy-to-let business seen over the past two years is set to continue in 2020, according to Paragon.
Complex completions increased from 79% to 89% of new business in 2019, reflecting the long-standing expertise that Paragon has in this specialised segment of the buy-to-let market.
Moray Hulme, director of mortgage sales at Paragon, commented: “In recent years, landlords have had to be more strategic in their approach than ever before and the buy-to-let market has seen a significant increase in portfolio and complex business. This new product range caters for the professional landlord with competitive pricing, low or zero product fees, free valuations and cash back offers.
“We’re excited to build on the momentum of a strong 2019, where we introduced a new Intermediary Portal and increased our proportion of lending to the professional landlord community, with this new range, including lower rates on 14 products.”
