FSE Manchester: Don't get drawn in by low interest rates

Mortgages for Business managing director David Whittaker had warned brokers to be on their guard when it comes to low fixed rates on buy-to-let products.

And the buy-to-let stalwart said broker experience will be key when it comes ensuring landlords aren't drawn in by headline rates.

He said: "All that glistens is not gold when it comes to rates.

"Low interest rates can appear very appealing but whatit comes down to is how lenders behave and that is where a broker comes in to their element.

"Broker experience is key and will help landlords make the right decisions."

Whittakerwas speaking at FSE Manchester at Old Trafford Cricket Ground.
