Charles McDowell (pictured), managing director at HTB, said: “It is more important than ever that we continually review our lending criteria as more information comes to light.

“With immediate effect we are increasing our maximum LTV to 75% for the right type of deals – the right properties, the right yields and the right borrowers”.

Marcus Dussard, sales director at HTB, added: “The whole team is buzzing about being able to deliver these criteria changes to our brokers and their clients.

“We all work with our intermediaries on a case-by case-basis and can’t wait to deliver our specialist lending in what is likely to be a resurgence, albeit a cautious one, in the property market”.
