The expat BTL products are available to the whole of the market, have a £150 application fee, a two per cent completion fee and a maximum loan of £750,000.

The Mortgage Lender deputy chief executive Peter Beaumont (pictured) said: “There has been a 30 per cent rise in the demand for expat BTL mortgages year-on-year and our new range, which is available up to 75 per cent loan to value, meets the increase in demand from expat landlords and gives BTL brokers more choice for their customers.”

In April, TML launched a BTL product range with free standard legal fees and no application, valuation or transfer fees.

There are 141 fixed BTL options on the market from 20 lenders.
