"Buy-to-let remortgage activity continues to be strong at 70% LTV."

The new fee-free deal at 2.32%, available to portfolio and stand alone landlords, comes with a free valuation and fees assisted legal services for remortgages.

Other products in the new 70% LTV range include a 1.61% two-year fixed rate, with free standard valuation, fees assisted legal services for remortgages and a £2,499 fee, and a 2.99% five-year fixed rate with £500 cashback, free valuation and no product fee.

Jaedon Green, Leeds Building Society’s director of product and distribution, said: “We have reduced our rates on some of our two and five-year fixed rate products, making them some of the leading rates in the buy-to-let market currently.

“Buy-to-let remortgage activity continues to be strong at 70% LTV. Landlords are reacting to tax changes impacting the market and actively managing their portfolios to protect yield, at a time when the likelihood of a rise in Bank Base Rate is increasing.

“This is an important sector in the housing market as a whole and we continue to work closely with our intermediary partners to further enhance the service we provide to them and their clients.”
