Landlords are being asked to pay massive mortgage fees despite a surge in loans
being approved.
There were 24,900 buy-to-let mortgages granted in the second quarter of 2010 - a
13 per cent increase on the previous quarter. However, landlords still need a
deposit of at least 30 per cent to qualify for the best rates.
Market Harborough BS is offering a two-year fixed rate at 4.5 per cent with a
fee of £845 at 70 per cent loan-to-value. That would mean monthly repayments of
£834 on a typical £150,000 mortgage.
