Commenting on the enhanced products, Roland McCormack, Managing Director says: “We are still confident that there is growth in the BTL market. We have seen a lot of good quality business coming through and this has been reflected in the split rates to 75% and 85% loan to value. By adding a free valuation, we have also taken away a lot of the upfront costs and hassle associated with remortgaging.”
