ModaMortgages is also offering a limited edition range of 2 and 5 year buy to let mortgages with rates starting from 3.74% up to 75% LTV with a choice of either a 2.5% or 5.5% fee.

Darrell Walker, ModaMortgages’ director of sales and distribution, said it was now “all systems go” at the specialist lender.

“The official launch of ModaMortgages is the culmination of two years of hard work and dedication, so it’s an incredibly exciting time for us,” he said. “The controlled launch period was hugely successful and the traction we’ve had has been really pleasing.

“Our ethos is all about doing the basic things really well – that’s our mantra: smarter, faster, simpler. We offer a great broker-friendly proposition, clear and transparent criteria, certainty up front and competitive rates, all backed up by a team that has a mass of mortgage experience and industry knowledge.

“Our sales team covers all of England and Wales. They’re hungry and will be a breath of fresh air in the market. When you place a case with ModaMortgages, you know what you’ll find – good people giving it everything they’ve got and doing their best to help you and your clients.”

Doug Hall, director at 3mc, one of the distributors who worked with ModaMortgages during the controlled launch period, said: “We’re delighted to partner with ModaMortgages during such an important time for their future growth. We’re really looking forward to placing more business with them.”

Martin Reynolds, chief executive at SimplyBiz Mortgages, commented: “We’re excited by ModaMortgages’ proposition at making buy to let lending as quick and simple as possible. We’ve enjoyed working closely them as they’ve prepared for their official launch and believe their offering will resonate with intermediaries keen to work with an uncomplicated, reliable lender.
