Second Charge Loans

Promise was fortunate to be one of the first Brokers to offer second charge loans from Masthaven when it launched towards the end of last year. Since then Masthaven has got comfortable with the second charge market, other lenders have repositioned their products and Masthaven is now launching this product revision which in simple terms means more competitive rates and higher LTV’s.

This is good news for brokers and their clients and you will undoubtedly see Masthaven appear more often at the top of the sourcing table. The key points for Masthaven are:

  • Lower rates than others at higher LTV’s with mild unsecured adverse
  • Will accept large adverse units over 3 years old which would previously attract much higher rates with other lenders
  • Self employed applicants can provide bank statements to prove income but without additional 6 X income multiple restriction
  • Ex council and lower value property considered up to 75% where as others normally cap at 65%
  • Applications are not scored so can get flexibility in the underwriting
  • Second charge BTL loans available to 70% LTV – others max out at 65%
  • Will also offer interest only on BTL’s from £5000 whereas Blemain start at £25000
  • Same underwriting rules for employed and self employed. Some lenders apply harsher LTV and Income requirements for self employed

Key Criteria & Application Guidance

IMPORTANT

Alongside Shawbrook, Masthaven is also getting more comfortable looking at cases which fall outside criteria. If you have a case which you feel has merit, talk to us about it. Our lenders are willing to look at sensible exceptions if they make sense.
