Suffolk Building Society is taking up to 30bps off its fixed Buy to Let, Buy to Let Light Refurbishment, Expat Buy To Let and Holiday Let products.

It is also slicing up to 30 bps off its 95% resi mortgages, giving an affordability boost to first time buyers and those with smaller deposits.

A society spokesperson says:“We’re pleased to be able to offer landlords more affordable rates across various Buy To Let product types to help lower their monthly costs. And of course, lower payrates help with BTL affordability, enabling them to access the loan amounts they require.

“As well as new regulations around energy efficiency and the introduction of a new Decent Homes Standard requiring improvements, landlords are also facing further changes from the upcoming Renters’ Rights Bill. In addition, the Budget may bring further change. As a result, landlords face uncertainty so saving money where possible is always a positive.”

She adds:“With house prices still rising, and the average UK house price standing at £289,723, there’s a clear need to support first time buyers with their property ownership ambitions. First time buyers are in the spotlight at the moment and rightly so. 

“With the cost of living and the ability to save up a sizeable deposit becoming even more challenging, higher LTV products go some way to help those looking to get on the property ladder. It also provides an alternative for those looking to remortgage and borrow extra for home improvements too.

The following are now available for both purchase and remortgage:

●  80% LTV 2 Year Fixed capital and interest has been reduced by 20bps to 5.39%, max loan £1m.

●  80% LTV 5 Year Fixed capital and interest has been reduced by 30bps to 5.19%, max loan £1m.
