New GMAC buy-to-let deal fixed at 4.99%

GMAC-RFC has launched a buy-to-let product, fixed at 4.99% until January 2005 for loans up to 75% loan to value (LTV).

For loans up to 85% LTV, the fixed rate is 5.39%.

‘In today’s market many people like their outgoings to be fixed, so they can budget for their payments,’ said Gina Collman, head of corporate communications at GMAC-RFC.

‘This is an attractive rate we are sure will prove popular. We believe the buy-to-let market will continue to grow, even though this may not be at previous record levels, and we are experiencing increased demand particularly in areas outside London and the South East. Even if property prices do not continue to rise at the rates seen recently, many people are continuing to invest in property on the basis of longer-term capital growth.’

GMAC has also doubled the portfolio size to £2m. There are no income requirements on the mortgages, with affordability assessed on covering 130% of the mortgage payment, at 5.74% SVR. The loans carry an arrangement fee of £395, but no MIG. There is a redemption penalty of 3% in the fixed rate period. The procuration fee is 0.5%.
