Bluestone Mortgages has announced increases to its loan-to-value (LTV) bandings. The lender is now offering mortgages up to 90% LTV to provide more opportunities for customers with complex credit histories to access higher borrowing amounts.

Bluestone has increased its LTVs by 5% across its Clear, AAA, AA, and A product tiers. This follows on from Bluestone’s recent 5% LTV uplift across its BBB product range back in December.

Commenting on the launch Bluestone head of sales and distribution Mark Hollands said: “We recognise that many borrowers don’t fit the standard mortgage mould. By increasing our loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, we’re making it easier for customers with smaller deposits to access the finance they need, helping them take that crucial step onto or up the property ladder.”
