This week, we're joined by Tom Ashton from Mortgage Tribe to unpack the massive changes happening in the landlord mortgage market in 2025.

Buy-to-let lending has surged 47% in Q1 alone, hitting £10.5bn, and there's a real sense that the landlord sell-off might finally be over. But what does this mean for investors and property owners looking to finance their next move?

We cover everything from new build mortgage criteria, gifted deposits, and record mortgage choice for landlords, through to second charge 

mortgages and the new mortgage guarantee scheme.

If you're a landlord or property investor and want to understand where the opportunities are right now — you'll want to hear this one.

We cover:
