Landlords Urged To Re-Mortgage As Tougher Lending Criteria Begin To Bite

Landlords are being urged to re-mortgage before tougher buy-to-let lending criteria, due to be introduced in September, make it more difficult to obtain finance.

The National Landlords Association (NLA) says the rise in re-mortgages is down to landlords looking to limit their exposure to the new buy to let tax regime. Read more on the NLA website.
