Daryl Norkett, head of real estate proposition at Shawbrook, said: “Shawbrook has always remained committed to offering competitive rates on our buy-to-let loans and we are delighted to be able to roll out these changes with immediate effect.
“This follows our recent pricing reductions on our Digital buy-to-let products which now start from 5.39% on a five-year fix and benefit from automated initial decisioning, AVMs and non-represented legals for refinances.
“As a trusted partner to brokers we want to ensure we are offering competitive pricing and flexible criteria that allows their professional landlord clients to access the finance they require when they need it.”
