The figures also show that despite the threat of rising base rates, the lowest rate five-year fixed products at 60%, 70% and 80% LTV are all holding steady on three months ago at 3.29%, 3.69% and 4.45% respectively.

NatWest Intermediary Solutions is introducing rate cuts to a number of buy-to-let mortgages in its broker portfolio from today.

It is cutting rates by between 9-23 basis points (bps) on its two-year fixed, five-year fixed and two-year tracker rate buy-to-let deals.

Rates will decrease on a number of its residential 90% and 95% LTV deals, including a 46bps cut on its five-year fixed rate 95% LTV mortgage.

There are also a couple of very small rate increases on its two-year 70% LTV deals.

Paul Kane, acting head of sales, NatWest Intermediary Solutions said: “We continue to have a healthy appetite to grow our presence in the buy-to-let market and have been working hard alongside out broker partners to improve our proposition in this competitive sector.

“These rate changes should provide a good indicator of our intent to make further progress with buy-to-let business for the reminder of this year and into 2016.
