The Society saw £34 million of mortgage completions in the first half of the year against £22 million written in the same period 12 months prior. The success of its new lending has helped The Mansfield achieve a 4% growth in its net mortgage assets at the half year.
Products now available to intermediaries across England and Wales include a discounted rate of 2.65% for 2 years (2.94% below SVR) with free basic valuation, a £199 application fee and £999 completion fee. For remortgage, the Mansfield offers free legal fees.
Available for purchase or remortgage, the Society is offering a 3.49% fixed rate for 2 years, and a 3.69% discounted rate for 3 years.
According to Stuart Bryce, Business Development Manager at the Mansfield Building Society, there remains a definite need for more mortgage options for Buy to Let landlords with a portfolio of 10 properties or less.
He said:
“With tax relief being reduced following the Chancellor’s Budget this year and Buy to Let a source of supplementary retirement income for some, the Buy to Let sector needs lenders like The Mansfield to offer alternative solutions.
“We feel we have the expertise and specialist knowledge built up over the years to help brokers with their Buy to Let enquiries for both purchase and remortgage.”
