Hi
Im looking to buy a second home, not for letting purposes.
Can anyone advice on a lender who has an LTV at 85% or above, they don't seem to advertise them particularly well.
Many Thanks

Have you spoken to a broker?
I know of 2 lenders off the top of my head, who will do 85-90%.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response. No i have not, was hoping to do it direct with a provider to keep the cost down.0 -
Fair enough.
Unfortunately I can not name lenders on here. As I am regulated I need to know a lot more before naming companies but someone not governed by the same rules as myself may be able to help.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Going direct without knowing where to go to get the best deal will probably cost you a lot more than getting advice, recommendation and someone to do all the legwork for you.I am a mortgage broker.

Some brokers are flexible with their fee structure. You should speak to some.
Especially as you may get a better rate through a broker then you could direct.I am a Mortgage Broker.

In addition to what others have said, I know at least one lender who advertises an LTV limit for additional properties but are flexible with this depending on the circumstances and level of risk.
I wouldn’t even consider not using a broker.0
