£800,000 remortgage away from private bank
Case study
Our clients asked for help to remortgage away from a private bank.
They planned to switch their residential mortgage to a buy-to-let as they were relocating and did not plan to live in the property.
As they had been with their private bank for some time and they were paying an expensive variable rate, they also wanted to secure a better mortgage.
Solution
The property was in a prime area of London and our clients wanted to keep it as an investment.
Our adviser recommended a buy-to-let lender with a range of fixed rate mortgages that were more competitively priced than this private banks expensive variable rate.
