Making the most of remortgage opportunities

According to recent UK Finance figures remortgaging is at a ten-year high, whereas house purchase activity has been more muted. This divide is most prevalent on the buy-to-let side with two-thirds of activity in 2018 being remortgage. Why is this, and what can advisers do to ensure landlord clients are managing their buy-to-let mortgage borrowing effectively.
