MY PRODUCT COMMENTS: The Post Office for Intermediaries allows landlords to have a maximum of 3 mortgages with them, and 5 mortgages across all lenders. For remortgages you must have owned the property for at least 12 months so it probably rules out developers. The short minimum lease requirement of 45 years at the end of the mortgage is quiet generous and could particularly help, in Central London.
MY LENDER COMMENTS: The Post Office for Intermediaries is effectively Bank of Ireland for Intermediaries. They are fairly new re-entrants to the market and judging by their current excellent rates it appears like they are looking to crank up the volume.
