Market Harborough Building Society has made enhancements to its UK and expat buy-to-let ranges, including those for high net worth borrowers.

The Society has increased its maximum buy-to-let loan size to £3m and increased the maximum LTV on its lower-rate tier 2 products to 80%.

In addition, more scenarios are now included in its tier 2 range, including non standard income, complex properties and joint borrower sole proprietor.

Market Harborough’s head of mortgage distribution, Iain Smith, said: “We’ve built real momentum going into 2026, with a series of changes designed to make our mortgage solutions up to £5m even more accessible. And we’re not taking our foot off the gas - giving more landlords and individual investors access to lower priced tier 2 products, broader 80% LTV availability, and increased choice with a higher maximum loan size.

“We’re passionate about being best for brokers, and that means listening to and acting on broker feedback - the changes we’ve made so far this year are a clear demonstration of this and our commitment to being an easy, supportive and solutions focused partner for them and their clients.”
