Looking for high LTV on BTL

A friend of mine needs to extract some equity from a house thats currently on Consent to Let so they can fund buying a new place. They are happy to convert it to a BTL mortgage.

They need to get 80-85% LTV on it. I've tracked down two lenders Kent Reliance (85%LTV) and Aldermore (80%LTV)

Do any brokers have any experience of working with these lenders? Any info that I can give them?

    There is another but I think that is pretty much the market at anything above 75% LTV.

    Ive done business with both and use aldermore a lot. They are FAR easier to deal with than kent.

    There are a few more but be mindful many potential but to let's have issues with the rental yield on 80-85 percent ltv deals so do your research well.

    Some have issues around deposit % on ongoing ressie purchase too so again be careful and lastly any use of specific lenders on some 95% products don't like properties retained.

    Many a variable to be mindful of here so engage a pro or do plenty of what ifs
