Commenting on the product offers Foundation Home Loans director of product and marketing Tom Jacob said: ““Landlords continue to seek higher rental yield and are increasingly drawn to higher-yielding properties like HMOs and MUFBs, so it’s not surprising we are seeing a growing interest in this part of the market. With these cuts landlord borrowers should find an easing of affordability, allowing them to either add to portfolios or refinance existing properties, by securing the loans they require.”

He added: “Tenant demand has not fallen back in the private rental sector, and these new products and price cuts should allow acquisitive landlords to keep adding supply to their portfolios in order to meet the ongoing need for quality rental properties.”
