Bluestone Mortgages can now consider lending over 4.5x income across their full product range, as they seek to further support underserved customers with their home ownership dreams.

Their Pepper 48 range is suitable for customers who have not had a Default or CCJ within the last 48 months. In fact, the vast majority of customers we support with their Pepper 48 range have never had a CCJ or defaults at all and so it provides a great solution for those customers who have simply failed a credit score with a mainstream provider or have other complexities which may not fit the mainstream mould such as complex income, or minor blips with unsecured credit or utilities.
Whether your customers are looking to purchase or remortgage, they could benefit from their reduced completion fees and 500 cashback to help cover additional costs, offering a valued alternative to a free legal option.
The inclusion of Limited Editions to their range supports their mission to provide you with product options that accommodate the evolving needs of your customers and, help more people succeed with their property plans.

Following the launch of their Non Portfolio product, aimed at simple cases, Shawbrook has introduced a mid range solution that supports the needs of portfolio landlords.

- Properties must meet AVM criteria and the AVM must be successful, but the customer can opt to proceed with a full valuation. If the AVM is unsuccessful, the case can proceed on Shawbrooks Specialist product.
Pipeline cases at pre offer stage will proceed on the new rates. Cases that have received a formal offer will proceed on the previously agreed rates.

23/04/2020 - TML launch 75% LTV AVM
TML is now live with Desktop valuations up to 75% LTV on both new and pipeline cases.
We will be utilising Desktops where possible, whilst the governments current measures around Covid-19 are in place that mean physical valuations are not possible.
Where a property is not suitable for a desktop assessment or
AVM, we will put the case on hold until government advice allows valuers to begin
physical inspections again.
This would include the following property types;
HMO and MUB
- New build property (built in last 24 months)
- More than 4 bedrooms
- Studio flats
- Flats in blocks with over 6 storeys
- Flats with suspected cladding
- Properties with land above 2 acres
- Listed buildings
- Modern methods of construction
- Leases with under 85 years remaining

22/04/2020 - Tipton change Later Life
Tipton have revised their criteria relating
to Later Life lending to introduce a downsizing option, upon the death of
either borrower. Changes are effective immediately and specific to joint
applications where both customers are currently retired and applying for
one of their Later Life products but excludes their Retirement Interest Only (RIO) products.
Where affordability (upon death of either borrower) cannot be proven in one name, providing it can be demonstrated that there is sufficient equity available for the surviving borrower to downsize to a 2 bedroom flat or house within 5 miles of the mortgage security this will now be considered acceptable for underwriting purposes. Subject to their standard minimum requirements for interest only (sale of mortgaged property) being satisfied - Max 60% LTV; Minimum 200k equity (500k within M25).
Speak to the impact Help Desk to find out more or to submit an enquiry.
------------------------------------------------------------------
17/04/2020 - Shawbrook confirm AVM stance
We have revised our approach to support completion of Desktop Valuations during this difficult time when our valuers are unable to undertake physical inspections.
As you will know, we currently use AVM to support our application process for single dwellings up to 75% LTV, and will continue to do so. The following is simply an enhancement that adds Desktop commentary on cases that may not meet the AVM requirements.
Please note that Desktop Assessment will be restricted to an upper value of 1,000,000 in Greater London (within M25), and 500,000 for all other locations.
- Residential Flat (4 storeys max) - AVM - Desktop - If Satisfactory, no further valuation requirements
- Small HMO/Semi Commercial - No AVM - Desktop - Formal offer subject to Physical Re-Inspection
- Large HMO/MUB/Commercial/HMO Conversion/Flat (over 4 storeys) - No AVM - No Desktop - Formal offer subject to full valuation.
Further to the Scottish Government issuing emergency legislation, we are pleased to announce that we are able to process and complete on loans in Scotland once again.
Please contact the impact help desk to find out more or to discuss an enquiry.

16/04/2020 - Specialist Lending Guide
Download the latest Specialist Lending Update from impact by CLICKING HERE http://www.impactpackaging.co.uk/intermediaries/lenders/
This will give you all of the latest feedback from the lenders on their current situations, products, valuations and mortgage payment holidays.
Keep checking back as this will be updated as new information is received.
------------------------------------------------------------------
15/04/2020 - Tipton change criteria
You will appreciate that at the current time, criteria (both residential and BTL) is under continuous review but we are delighted to advise we remain very much open for business and continue to accept expat BTL applications up to our normal 70% LTV limit for both purchase and remortgage.
We would also advise of the following changes to existing policy:
- We have removed the higher HRT ICR calculation that was automatically applied where the clients UK equivalent income exceeded B#50,000. The standard calculation that now applies regardless of income level is detailed in the table below.
- Flats in blocks of more than 5 storey will continue to be considered on an individual basis by our lending credit committee, but are now restricted to a maximum limit of 8 storeys and 60% LTV#
- Applications for 1 bedroom apartments/flats will not be considered at the current time
- #Desktop valuations can now be completed, further details relating to our revised valuation process and any exclusions that apply will be released this week
#Full applications already submitted will continue to be
assessed and underwritten against the criteria that applied at the time of application.
------------------------------------------------------------------
15/04/2020 - Hampshire Trust restrict LTV
HTB - Until we have more clarity around the actual performance
of property prices post COVID-19, we are restricting our maximum LTV to 60% for
any loan which relies on a valuation report which contains material
uncertainty. We will continue to review our position as we are able to build up
our base of up-to-date house price data.
Valuation is as much an art as it is a science, but a
key element of any valuation is suitable comparable transactions and the truth
is that we wont have comparable transactions for a number of months in some
cases.
Despite what people are saying, the problem is not how
do we get surveyors to inspect properties during the lock down, this is merely
an inconvenience. The real problem is what number do we put on any valuation in
the months following lock down and how confident will we be to lend against
that number.
------------------------------------------------------------------
14/04/2020 - UTB Change AVM max
UTB - Hometrack Automated Valuation Model
The maximum property value for all UTB Hometrack AVMs has been increased from 500k to 1m. All other LTV and Loan Amount parameters specific to each product set remain the same, as does the minimum confidence level of 5.0.
All pipeline applications are eligible for this increase, and the UTB Hometrack Real-time Template has already been updated for Packager/Distributors.
We are also liaising with our Surveyor panel regarding other alternative methods of establishing security value, aside from a Drive-By or Full Internal Valuation, and will keep you updated in this respect.
------------------------------------------------------------------
14/04/2020 - Family update on Vals
Family have temporarily agreed that they will carry out desktop valuations from today.
For new cases we have agreed that we will instruct valuations as normal and the valuers will then either do a desktop if possible and within the parameters below, or place the instruction on hold until they are able to view the property.
A desktop report is
acceptable only for houses (not flats, maisonettes or barn conversions),
of standard construction and type, which are habitable, wholly for
residential/BTL purposes and where standard insurance conditions will apply.
The parameters where a desktop may be accepted are:
the loan does not exceed 60% of property value, which must not be
estimated at more than 500,000, or
the loan does not exceed 50% of property value, which must not be estimated at more than 750,000, or 1m inside London.
As we are only accepting a desktop report to 60% LTV we are happy to accept this but applicants must satisfy themselves as to the suitability of the property , especially on a purchase..
As the property is not being inspected there will be no
floor area reported and consequently no insurance reinstatement cost, again we
have agreed to accept this.
Whether a desktop valuation can be carried out or not all
cases will be underwritten as fully as possible , to the point where the last
outstanding item is the valuation, and introducers kept informed . Once the
valuers are able to visit property again, they will commence making
appointments.
If applicants or introducers are not prepared to wait for a full valuation we will refund any fee paid and cancel the application so they can submit to an alternative lender if possible.
------------------------------------------------------------------

03/04/2020 - Together Money update
TOGETHER - It is unfortunately become a well used phrase but these are unprecedented times, for everyone, but also within the mortgage industry. In our 45 year history, we have never encountered anything like this. But we remain determined to work together with our colleagues, customers and valued business partners to rise to the challenge in the way that we have to others in the past.
We have been reviewing the current situation and listening fully to Governmental guidance and have been able to safely enable over 700 colleagues to work from home and implement a process to assist our existing customers through these difficult times.
We have had to make some difficult decisions. We recently announced that we would stop accepting new applications for the time being as we reviewed the pipeline and we can now communicate the following.
These changes will now apply across both our Commercial Finance and Personal Finance applications in pipeline:
Cases at Pre offer stage
All cases are on hold until further notice. We will constantly review this and communicate further, either holistically or on specific cases when this changes. Unfortunately, in this market, we are not able to put a timescale on this right now.
Cases at Offer stage
Where we have issued an offer, our underwriters will continue to review cases and will communicate next steps with you as soon as they can.
Purchases
Where a case has already exchanged, we will review the customers affordability to ensure this is still right for them.
Where the case is offered and not exchanged as of 3rd April 2020, we will pause the application for an initial 3 months. We will constantly review our processes in line with market conditions and government advice, but for now, we will not progress these cases.
Remortgage & other products
We will undertake a full review of the customers affordability to ensure it is affordable, still right for them and that they want to proceed.
Where the current property value can be established (and with validated affordability), the case can progress.
Where the property value cannot be confirmed and/or affordability validated, the offer will be suspended and reviewed when appropriate. Again we cannot, in the current circumstances put a timescale on this.
In Commercial Finance where a case is below 50% loan to value and where we can be confident that affordability is both sustainable and plausible we will look to progress these cases. If this is a bridging case we will also need to be confident around the exit.
We are working as fast as we can. We will contact your customers directly and we will keep you updated on your cases as quickly as possible.
If you have any specific questions about offered cases, continue to call us on the number you have always used, and we will do our best to answer them. Please refrain from calling if your case has not offered as the information given above will apply.
Our teams are working incredibly hard helping our brokers and customers; our SLAs have understandably been adversely impacted as we prioritise the existing customer communication so please bear with us.
------------------------------------------------------------------
03/04/2020 - Further product updates
MT FINANCE
MT Finance is dedicated to continuing to support the broker community through this challenging time. Our core principles that have made up the foundations of our business remain unchanged as we continue to provide flexible, transparent, and commercial lending solutions to meet our clients needs.
We are lending at sensible loan to value levels, to enable
each transaction to work where possible, whilst also safeguarding against
further potential market changes. These are set at the following maximum levels
- Up to 65% against residential, for both first and second charges
- Up to 65% against semi-commercial properties, for both first and second charges
- Up to 55% against commercial properties, first charge only
We will ensure that each loan has an appropriate term, which gives clients the best opportunity to complete the transaction and implement their exit strategy.
We are working with all our surveyors and solicitors to
ensure that we can provide the best coverage and service possible. We are
committed to finding solutions to the issues that social distancing can create.
We currently have valuation coverage throughout the UK and Wales and a fully
operational solicitors panel.
Where available and appropriate we can consider existing
valuations from within the last three months alongside an audit from one of our
panel valuers. We remain focused on working creatively to find solutions to the
challenges we all presently face in conducting business.
All of our team have now been working from home for the last 3 weeks, supporting our brokers and each other to get transactions done. We will remain on hand to do so for as long as it takes.

03/04/2020 - April 3rd - lender updates
KENSINGTON
PRICING UPDATES ACROSS RESIDENTIAL AND BUY TO LET LIVE TOMORROW, SATURDAY 4TH APRIL
Please note that we are changing the rates across all of our
products, which are all at 70% LTV, effective from tomorrow, Saturday 4th
April.
CURRENT RATE SUBMISSION DEADLINES
- Decision in Principle Illustration produced by 5pm TODAY, Friday 3rd April
- Full Application submitted by 5pm on Monday 6th April
The market has continued to become more restrictive, with most purchase transactions being delayed and physical property valuations becoming impossible due to COVID-19. As a consequence, we have taken the decision to withdraw our products and suspend all new mortgage applications as part of a temporary pause in origination activities.
We will continue to process applications that have already been
submitted to us, prioritising those applications where the valuation has
already been completed. All other applications will be processed and
underwritten as normal, pending the availability of an acceptable valuation. We
are working on desktop and AVM alternatives to physical valuations and will let
you know if we are able to deliver this solution. All offered loans will
continue to completion as normal.
MASTHAVEN
We are making some temporary changes to our product range and criteria as a result of the coronavirus crisis.
We are open for lending. We believe that at this time it is important, as a Bank, that we support you and your customers with financing options responsibly structured and underwritten. So while we are making changes we are continuing to offer a lending range.
Property valuations
As you will no doubt be aware, there has been significant disruption to property valuation services with some suppliers withdrawing their services completely.
We have been working hard on a solution; however, it does mean that some of our lending will be further restricted as a result:- Where a full valuation is not available we will consider drive-by valuations supported by an AVM max LTV 60%
- Where a drive-by valuation is not available we will use our new AVM Plus service max LTV 50%
Product changes
The following changes are being made to our products on Monday 6th April but we thought you would appreciate a little notice:
Development/Commercial loans- We will not be accepting any new development or commercial loans until further notice. This will enable our team to support existing borrowers with projects already in progress
Bridging loans
- Larger loans our Bridging Plus range will be removed but the maximum loan size will be increased on our Prime and Standard range
- Prime bridging range will be restricted to 70% for first charge, 60% for second charge
- Minimum term will be 12 months early repayment is subject to minimum 1 month interest paid
- Refurbishments will not be available on Prime products
Full details of all these changes will be sent to you along with
our updated product guide on Monday 6th April. Applications
for any accepted DIPs not already submitted will need to be received by
midnight on Sunday 5th April.
We know that there are lots of changes being made across the market but hope you appreciate that making these changes enable us to continue to support you and your customers during this unprecedented time.
------------------------------------------------------------------
01/04/2020 - Shawbrook / Octane / Family
Shawbrook have made a number of product changes to their first charge and short term ranges:
With immediate effect, all products will be capped at 75% LTV.
- All applications over 65% LTV will be subject to additional assessment and may therefore take more time.
- Increased margins on certain products and LTVs. Please refer to the updated product guide.
- If your customer has a Formal Mortgage Offer (FMO), we will honour it, regardless of LTV.
- All other pipeline cases will be assessed based on the new 75% LTV maximum and the additional assessment over 65% LTV.
- Whilst the eAIP service remains live, please note that all cases will be subject to an overriding manual review and should not be considered as supported until such review is completed. An eAIP approval is therefore not an approval until confirmed by a Lending Manager.
- In addition to the max 75% LTV across all products:
- Heavy Refurb; The pandemic has substantially impacted the
construction industry and supply chains. We are unable therefore to consider
lending for this purpose until further notice.
- Developer Exit applications will be assessed on a case by case basis and will assume that the assets will be held for term, rather than sold. Standard BTL term affordability criteria will apply and market rent will therefore be a key consideration. Please discuss with your BDM or Sales Desk prior to submission.
- We recognise that any changes to our Regulated Bridging products may impact the initial advice provided. Please ensure that all new and pipeline cases remain compliant with your advice process and MCOB rules prior to completion.
- We are open for business albeit at reduced LTVs (on most deals this has only been a 5% reduction in LTV). As always, we review each deal on a case-by-case basis and now more than ever our #3rdGen product-less proposition will continue to assess each deal on a risk based approach.
- Our entire team, is 100% operational and working from home, we completed 15 deals last week so we know this is working well.
- Our legal partners are also 100% operational and working from home. We have worked with them to ensure that borrowers can sign without having to meet the solicitor face to face.
- The main stumbling block currently is valuations. While our valuer partners are eager to continue to support us, many are finding it difficult to do so while complying with the current government social distancing guidelines. We are working with our valuer panel to come up with creative ways to solve this.
We are making changes to our semi exclusive products.
Current products will be withdrawn and any applications on these rates must be received by close of business Friday 10th April.
In addition to the new products, the following changes have also been made;
- Cashback offered for residential remortgages where the client is using external solicitors is increasing from B#250 to B#400.
- The fixed rates noted above must complete by 1st October 2020 for this product set
- Minimum loan sizes on residential interest only fixed rates have been removed (previously B#200,000 now B#45,000)

31/03/2020 - Product updates today
Foundation - We have seen lenders significantly reduce their product
offering and some have suspended lending completely. Whilst we believe all of
this will be temporary, we must take necessary steps in the short term to allow
us to trade through this unprecedented disruption. We have taken the decision to temporarily suspend all new
applications as from 31 March 2020. This is to allow us to focus on delivering
support, including MPH arrangements, to our 25,000+ borrowers.
UTB - 4 updates are summarised here:
- New Max 75% LTV for all employed applicants
- New Max 65% LTV for all self-employed applicants
- Employed Applicants:
- Guaranteed income, such as Basic earnings and Car Allowances, will be accepted as normal.
- 50% of Commission will be accepted, subject to the standard 18m history and evidence.
- Regular Bonus/Overtime payments will now not be accepted for most employees.
- For Key Workers listed on www.gov.uk regular Bonus/Overtime, including Shift Allowances, will be considered on an individual case basis, subject to the standard 18m history and evidence.
- Whilst underwriting can continue, mortgage offers and completions on all properties in Scotland must be paused. This is as a result of the Scottish Land Registry closing, and therefore no new lender charges are currently able to be registered.
------------------------------------------------------------------
30/03/2020 - Further product changes
Kent Reliance - Due to the unprecedented demand from our existing customers regarding payment holidays, latest government advice and the current situation with valuations, we have taken the decision to temporarily suspend new applications for all of our product lines and divert our resources to support our borrowers during this challenging time.
To facilitate this, we will be removing access to our online application system from Friday 27th March.
Precise Mortgages - Due to the unprecedented demand from our existing customers regarding payment holidays, latest government advice and the current situation with valuations, we have taken the decision to temporarily suspend new applications for all of our product lines and divert our resources to support our borrowers during this challenging time. To facilitate this, we will be removing access to our online application system from later today Friday 27th March.We will not process applications that have not progressed to offer; such cases will be placed on hold until further notice.
Fleet Mortgages - All products to 60% LTV with effect from Friday 27thLandbay - All products to 60% LTV with effect from Friday 27th
Pepper - currently undergoing assessment of cases in the pipeline to see if they can still lend to them
Kensington - As you know, surveyors are unable to offer internal valuations at this time. We are exploring an alternative valuation solution but this will not be suitable for our full product range. As a result, and to be fair to you and your customers, we are withdrawing, with immediate effect, a number of products that we know will not be covered by this solution and that we are therefore unable to make offers on today. We hope to reinstate these products once physical valuations can restart.
- We have reduced our maximum LTV on all products (both residential and BTL) to 70%. Whilst sourcing systems may still indicate we are open to applications at 75% LTV we will only consider loans at 70% LTV or below
- We have reduced the maximum property value to 1m,
across both Residential and Buy to Let
- Withdrawal of all New Build products including Help to Buy
- Withdrawal of Later Life
- Withdrawal of HMO/MUB
- We have extended our property exclusions. Please check our Lending Criteria online for the full list
- All pipeline cases ALREADY in receipt of a valuation will continue as usual
- Pipeline cases below 70% LTV without a valuation will proceed as and when we have an alternative valuation solution
- Pipeline cases above 70% LTV without a valuation will regrettably be cancelled as we will have no valuation solution until internal valuations resume
Masthaven - making the following changes (DIP by 5.30pm TONIGHT):
- First charge residential products - MB0/MB1 maximum LTV now 75%, MB2 no longer available
- First charge buy to let products - Specialist Property - no longer available / Specialist Landlord/Tenant - no longer available

27/03/2020 - What we know - Residential
In the current climates, things are changing quickly. We have tried to summarise as below (these will be updated real time):
RESIDENTIAL / BUY TO LET
Bluestone - No physical valuations being completed until further notice. We are working on alternative solutions and will provide a further update as soon as possible. In the meantime, we are very much open for business as normal. We will prioritise those applications where the valuation has already been completed. All new applications will be processed and underwritten as normal, then held awaiting the valuation and our final assessment. We now have everyone working from home and the business is operating as normal, with the exception of us being able to send out offers to customers by post. Please could you forward to the Mortgage Offer and other documents to your customer.
Dudley - The Society has made the difficult decision to temporarily withdraw our mortgage product range for new applications with immediate effect. We will be contacting all of our partners to discuss the position of applications that are in the pipeline on a case by case basis and any pre offer applications will continue to be progressed up to the point of valuation. We ask that you keep us updated with any changes to your clients circumstances. Not taking other calls
Fleet - No valuations and no facility to do an AVM. If there are any changes with this they will let us know. All products limited to 60% LTV
Foundation Home Loans - We cannot currently accept Automated Valuations, Desk top or Drive by valuations. We are investigating viable alternatives, but in the meantime we will be unable to instruct new valuations until further notice.
Kensington - At this time, surveyors are unable to offer their standard valuations. We are working on a solution and considering the best options available, however please be aware that cases without a valuation cannot proceed to Offer until a valuation has been carried out.

Pepper Money - In common with many other lenders, physical valuations will now not take place in the next 3 weeks, the initial review period announced by the Government. As a result, there will be a number of customers who will have received a call cancelling their valuation appointment and who will be keen to understand what will happen next. Customers will have the choice of either receiving a refund of their fees if they no longer wish to proceed with their application, or instructing Pepper Money to continue with the application, accepting that the physical valuation will not be carried out for at least the next three weeks at which point we propose to review and contact the customer again. No facility to do an AVM at this time.

26/03/2020 - What we know - Bridging
In the current climates, things are changing quickly. We have tried to summarise as below (these will be updated real time):
BRIDGING
Hampshire Trust - At the moment, any properties which have already been inspected will be reported back in the usual way. However, any properties yet to be inspected will be placed on hold and our panel manager will liaise with each client as to how those cases should be progressed.
However, we can still do a considerable amount prior to the valuation being received. All documents can be reviewed and new enquires can be responded to in readiness for when that valuation lands on our desk. This preparation will allow you and your clients to hit ground running as soon as things return to normal.
Interbay - As it stands at the moment no decision has been made as a business we are obviously looking at options and will update you when we are in a position to do so.
Masthaven - looking at AVM model, and will consider re-types
MT Finance - will consider re-type
Octane - We are currently reviewing our options and working on an alternate yet suitable solution and as soon as we have worked that out, we will be shouting from the rooftops because we still have good appetite to lend and are still completing deals!
Octopus - Unfortunately, at this moment in time we would not be able to offer desktop valuations, however, with everything going on we are constantly reviewing our processes so this would be subject to change.
Precise - AVMs up to 50% LTV and up to 1m
Single unit residential property / Maximum value 600k / Maximum LTV and minimum confidence levels for capital value within certain parameters / England and Wales only / No property above or adjoining commercial premises / Freehold or minimum unexpired 85 years leasehold / No converted flats / No new build property built within last 24 months / Report is valid for 6 months / Rental income should be taken from the lower of passing and AVM rental value for DSCR purposes
Together - No new business
UTB - AVMs up to 55% LTV, and up to 1m
------------------------------------------------------------------

than usual from Application to Offer, but as soon as Kensington has a solution we will
update you.

------------------------------------------------------------------
24/03/2020 - Together halt lending
In
light of the above, the evolving situation across the country in respect to
COVID 19, the Governments and/or regulators current or future responses to
tackling the situation, and to provide clear, effective direction to our
business partners, we have made the following decisions:
|
- For a temporary period, effective immediately, we will not accept any new applications across our product range. |
|
- We are prioritising those applications already in the pipeline that are for purchases and specifically on those where the borrower has already exchanged contracts. |
|
- Our pre-offer pipeline is currently being reviewed whilst we assess the market environment and our lending criteria. |
Together as a lender has been supporting customers for over 45 years, through many challenging environments, and will continue to do so. Today we feel that supporting our existing customers through these difficult times is the prudent and sensible thing to do and has to be our priority.
The
situation will remain under constant review and our teams will remain in close
contact to ensure that you are kept as up to date as possible during this
period.
------------------------------------------------------------------
24/03/2020 - Foundation unable to survey
From Foundation - In response to the curfew imposed by the government last night, key valuation partners have announced that they are to suspend physical inspection of properties until further notice. These are very difficult times for everybody and we respect their decision we are certain that it has not been made lightly. We also expect that most valuation providers will follow suit.
We cannot currently accept Automated Valuations, Desk top or Drive by valuations. We are investigating viable alternatives, but in the meantime we will be unable to instruct new valuations until further notice.
We will keep you informed of any update during these challenging times.

10/06/2019 - New 5yr fixed from FHL
Remortgage
activity has long proved a vital revenue stream for intermediaries within the
buy-to-let sector. Particularly in recent times as the increase in stamp duty
charges for additional property owners has impacted the number of new
purchases, a trend which shows no sign of slowing down any time soon.
A
recent study by Foundation Home Loans undertaken by BVA BDRC suggested that
nearly a third of all landlords took out a remortgage last year, and a similar
number are expected to remortgage in the next 12 months. And, with more
landlords looking for additional security and greater longer term stability
over their payments, the launch of the Foundation Home Loans five year fixed
rate remortgage special is bound to prove attractive for your BTL clients.
The new mortgage is part of Foundations Tier 1 product range and can be accessed by first time landlords, non portfolio and portfolio landlords.
The five year fixed rate remortgage special is priced at 3.59% up to 65% LTV, and 3.89% up to 75% LTV. The product comes with a flat fee of 2,995 and ERCs of 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%. It also comes with one FREE standard valuation and 250 cashback upon completion.

13/03/2019 - Magellan Stop Lending.
.gif)
From the lender - "Today, Magellan Homeloans, the specialist mortgage lender, announced
that it has taken the decision to close for new business.
In response to competitive pressures the business has recently seen a number of
lenders reducing mortgage loan interest rates and increasing credit risk
despite increased funding costs. Viewing this as unsustainable Magellan has
reluctantly taken this decision, having considered a number of alternative
options.
Magellan will cease accepting new business with immediate effect. However, it
will continue to honour unexpired mortgage offers, although these will not be
extended or materially varied.
Decisions in principle and applications in the pipeline will not be progressed
any further. Mortgage applicants who have paid administration or valuation fees
to Magellan but who have not received a mortgage offer will have those fees
refunded."
For further information, please contact the team and we will see if we can assist.

We are hoping you have noticed our fresh and dynamic new brand! But in case you missed the press releases:
AToM, the specialist mortgage broker and distributor has announced that, from January 2019, it will change its operating brand to impact specialist finance. This comes after the family run business, which is moving into its 28th year in 2019, has entered into an agreement with Atom bank.
Founder and chairman, Vic Jannels, said, "We have enjoyed many successful years operating in the specialist mortgage distribution sector. During the last few years we have traded alongside the bank as we mostly operate in differing areas of the mortgage marketplace. Our change of brand has been embraced by the whole AToM team and we are ready to make an impact, through impact specialist finance, in the New Year. Our offering to the market will remain exactly as it is today plus we expect to have many new and different lender products available too."
Dale Jannels, Managing Director, added "It is sad to lose the very well-known AToM name as it has served us incredibly well over the last 27 years. But change is good. We sat down and looked at all the things we do, which include Insurances, Mortgages, Protection And Creative Technology, so the new name is right on the money. This is an exciting new era and having a fresh, dynamic, eye catching new brand in impact, will be a great start to 2019"

22/03/2018 - AToMs Case of the Day
One of our clients - a
father and son - were looking to make a residential purchase on a property with
lots of land. However a well known supermarket chain had sprayed old meat over
many years on the surrounding land of this property making it difficult to
place for high street and specialist lenders. The client was declined 6 times before
speaking to the AToM sales team!
Fortunately this is where we could help! We were eventually able to place their
case with a helpful building society on an Interest Only 2.29% 3 Year Discounted
rate with a 1.50%
arrangement fee. This was completed quickly and to the customers relief!
Remember if you have a case you are struggling to place please call the AToM sales
team and see how we can help!
