Attractive

According to Kris Brewster, Skipton’s head of products, buy-to-let is still an attractive proposition, especially given the fact that interest rates are now at 0.25%.

Mr Brewster said, ‘we are delighted to launch this refreshed fixed-rate buy-to-let mortgage range offering lower interest rates. In the present environment of ultra-low interest rates, buy-to-let would seem to be a more and more attractive proposition for potential landlords.’[1]

‘Skipton’s buy-to-let deals continue to prove popular and we believe this new range offers great value for purchasers of buy-to-let property and for those wishing to remortgage their portfolio. We have a total of 36 products in our buy-to-let range to give landlords and potential landlords plenty of choice and as many different options as possible to help suit their many different needs,’ he added.[1]
