New integration aims to enhance route to specialist buy-to-let mortgages

Mortgage Brain has officially integrated Lendco’s range of residential buy-to-let mortgage products into its Sourcing Brain and Criteria Brain platforms, expanding access for intermediaries operating in the United Kingdom and abroad.
The partnership includes Lendco’s offerings for UK residents, expatriates, and foreign non-UK clients. A news release highlighted that these products cover standard residential buy-to-let mortgages with two-year and five-year fixed rates, holiday let mortgages with five-year fixed rates, as well as mortgages for houses in multiple occupation (HMO) and multi-unit freehold blocks (MUFB), available in both two-year and five-year fixed terms. In addition, product transfers, bridge exit finance, and special offers for new business have also been incorporated into the system.
With this update, intermediaries using Sourcing Brain and Criteria Brain will be able to access Lendco’s complete portfolio. The platforms, both accessible online, allow users to conduct searches and evaluate criteria simultaneously. Information entered into one module automatically populates in the other, ensuring greater efficiency in client servicing. According to Mortgage Brain, the dual integration supports more accurate results and reduces the time required to process client queries.
Mortgage Brain said it updates its lender product information twice daily, providing intermediaries with reliable and timely access to available offerings. Furthermore, the Sourcing Brain platform features a built-in Hometrack Automated Valuation Model, which supplies instant property and rental valuations at no extra cost. This feature supports intermediaries in submitting applications that meet requirements on the first attempt.
“We cater specifically to busy, professional property investors, seeking swift, accurate solutions. Speed is of the essence so that they can move fast to secure properties and service their portfolios,” said Sheryl Kirk, national account manager at Lendco. “With the efficiency of Sourcing Brain and the accuracy of Criteria Brain, it’s a winning combination. We’re excited about the opportunities ahead.”
“A very warm welcome to Lendco whose wide range of buy-to-let mortgage products, underwritten with a can-do attitude, are an excellent addition to Sourcing Brain and Criteria Brain,” said Neil Wyatt, sales and marketing director at Mortgage Brain. “We look forward to working together to bring diverse, specialist mortgage solutions to meet the many varied needs of property investors from the UK and further afield.”
