The new calculator provides brokers with calculations of how much their clients are able to borrow, whether they are applying in their own name, or as a limited company.

Last week the specialist lender launched a range of two- and five-year fixed rate buy-to-let mortgages for limited companies. The five-year fix has a rental calculation of 125% at the pay rate and the two-year fix has the higher of the initial rate +2% or 5.50%.

Pepper Money also cut rates across its buy-to-let range and launched an option for free valuations on purchases and remortgages.

Paul Adams, sales director at Pepper Money, said: “Pepper Money’s new buy-to-let affordability calculator will help make the process easier for brokers to find the right deal for their clients; and our limited company buy-to-let range will offer new options for the growing number of landlords who choose to hold their investment in an SPV.

“The new year is just a few weeks old and we have already made a number of improvements to our products and proposition at Pepper Money. This is a signal of our intent for 2020 as we will continue to increase our lending, work with more brokers, and help more customers achieve their objectives.”
