Market Financial Solutions (MFS) has enhanced and launched a its buy-to-let (BTL) mortgage products to all brokers and direct clients.
The bridging lender has piloted the BTL products since October 2021 among 17 intermediary partners. Based on the success of the high-demand trial period, it has now officially rolled out the mortgage range.
MFS is building on its 15 years’ experience as a specialist lender for bridging loans working with property investors and brokers to now apply its expertise, speed and flexibility in the BTL mortgage space.
The new BTL business is headed up by Mike Cook, who joined the company last year as Chief Mortgage Officer. He has over 20 years’ experience in specialist mortgage lending and is therefore well equipped to find the right product for brokers and their clients.
MFS’s BTL mortgages provide truly specialist and professional combinations, allowing loans up to £3m at 75% LTV, portfolios up to £10m, foreign nationals, overseas companies and trusts, less than perfect credit, and strong yielding property types, such as large HMOs, multi-unit blocks and holiday lets.
The London-based lender is offering a super flexible interest cover ratio (ICR) which can be combined with rolled-up and deferred monthly payments and deferred interest. This can support prime London properties and help avoid failed transactions, delays, and lost fees.
With two or three-year terms and a bespoke approach, the loans provide optionality and breathing space between bridge exits or initial purchases and future long-term financing. Pay rates now start from 3.79%, with product fees from 1.5%.
Paresh Raja, CEO of MFS, said: “Following the success of the three-month pilot, we are delighted to announce the further enhancement and full launch of our BTL mortgages. With more than 15 years’ experience in the bridging sector, we will be taking the speed, flexibility and high level of service that we are known for and applying these qualities within the BTL mortgage space. We expect high demand for the products and look forward to enhancing our offering throughout 2022 to best meet borrowers’ needs.”
Mike Cook, CMO of MFS, added: “The BTL mortgage space is a natural fit for MFS – it understands the BTL market inside out, and will apply its experience in underwriting loans to ensure the right deals can be sourced for brokers and their clients. We experienced significant demand during the pilot, which demonstrated the need for products like ours, as well as the trust that brokers and BTL investors have in MFS to deliver the loans they require.”
