The move means brokers with clients looking to purchase or remortgage a buy-to-let in Scotland can now access the lender's leading range of first charge products.
The lender's individual approach to underwriting ensures that each case is reviewed on its merits, ensuring a smoother purchase or remortgage journey.
Andrew Ferguson, Managing Director of Buy-to-let at West One Loans, says: “Entering the Scottish market is an exciting milestone, and we believe Scotland's dynamic housing sector, supported by nearly 238,000 buy-to-let landlords, presents significant opportunities for us as a lender.
“While competition is strong, we believe our market-leading products, flexible criteria and commitment to tailored underwriting will be warmly received by brokers and landlords across the country.”
Jez Quinn, Head of Sales - North (Buy-to-Let and Bridging), says: "This is a huge step forward for us and we're keen to make an instant impact on the Scottish market.
"The buy-to-let market is more complex than ever and intermediaries need a flexible, solution-focused lender they can trust - we're here to be that lender for brokers.
"We're taking this move very seriously, which is why we have a dedicated northern based field BDM, Rick Davey, plus office support to ensure West One provided Scottish brokers with expert support on criteria and case enquiries."
