We’re making changes to our lending criteria

We’re returning our capital raising limits back to pre-covid levels from Thursday, 21 October

I wanted to let you know about the changes we’re making to capital raising and our minimum income level on 5.5x lending.

Capital raising:

► For buy to let up to 80% LTV for all acceptable purposes
► For non-property related and property related, including purchases on our residential owner occupied ranges, subject to LTV
► For business purpose – subject to additional underwriting guidanceWe’ll continue to look at each case on an individual basis, so we can make sure we’re
making the right lending decisions for our clients.

Minimum income level on 5.5x lending:

Our loan to income ratio (LTI) up to 5.5x income for individuals or joint applicants has increased. Applicants must now have a total allowable income of at least £60,000 to access this LTI.

Any DIPs in process will remain at the previous LTI of 5.5x income up to £50,000
for a maximum of 30 days. 

All new DIPs keyed on or after 21 October will revert to the new minimum income level.

Please note: This change isn’t reflected in our affordability calculator at the moment.
If you’re looking to key a case between £50k and £60k, on 5.5x LTI, please contact our BDM team on 0321 333 1000 who’ll help you with this.
