Exclusive to intermediaries are six three-year fixed rates ranging from 3.09% at 60% LTV with a product fee of £1,995 to 4.49% at 75% LTV with no product fee.

And Natwest has cut rates on many of its existing buy-to-let deals up to 64bps.

Mark Bullard, head of sales at NatWest Intermediary Solutions, said: “We have had a very good response to the improvements we have introduced to our buy-to-let proposition in the last six months.

“The optimism for growth in this sector that our research identified at the end of 2013 appears to have been correct as buy-to-let volumes having increased in the first few months of this year.”
