The proposition includes flexible criteria points, rates for non-traditional tenants and landlords and complex properties and is available for individuals, professional landlords and limited companies. The range follows Masthaven’s launch into buy-to-let last year.
Matt Andrews, managing director of mortgages, Masthaven, said: "The rental sector has undergone some big changes over the last few years and some landlords and tenants have felt the strain.
“In a bid to support the market, we wanted to create a product range that offers brokers access to products that meet market needs.
“We want to offer products that suit UK borrowers. As mortgage requirements change, the industry must offer affordable and flexible options that keep up with modern life.
“We listened carefully to our brokers and believe our new range will support their clients’ needs.”
Doug Hall, director of 3mc, added: “Masthaven’s revamped buy to let product suite will provide a much-needed boost to the intermediary market.
“Buy to let has been in need of innovation for some time, so we’re extremely pleased to see this distinct new offering from Masthaven.
“Masthaven have made buy-to-let fit for the modern landlord and tenant with a set of three products that are easy for brokers and borrowers to understand, feature lots of relevant criteria points and bring buy to let into the modern world. We look forward to offering this product to our clients.”
