Buy-to-Let App is a Hit with Landlords

Landlords and brokers alike have responded positively to a free iPhone app developed by Mortgages for Business. Since being launched in September 2012, the Buy to Let app, which lists all the latest buy-to-let mortgage options, has been downloaded almost 1,500 times.

Managing Director of Mortgages for Business, David Whittaker, said: “The number of downloads confirms our research which showed that landlords were looking for a quick and easy way to access buy-to-let mortgage rates on the go.”[1]

Whittaker went on: “From the feedback we have received so far, it seems that landlords find the app useful when they are out and about looking at potential property purchases.”

He suggested: “In particular, they like the fact that the app allows them to play with a number of different financial and property variables to work out the most suitable funding solution.”[1]

Features

The application contains a rate finder and additionally, a portfolio manager that enables landlords to record each of their properties efficiently. The portfolio manager also allows users to set mortgage review reminders and to utilise the app to find the best remortgage rates for every property.

Landlords interested in downloading the app can do so for free from the App Store.
