Multi-Unit Freehold Block mortgages

Our new Multi-Unit Freehold (MUFB) mortgages are available for independent landlords and Limited Companies. Our criteria defines a Multi-Unit Freehold or Multi-Unit Freehold Block (MUFB) as up to three self-contained units listed under one freehold title, not multiple leaseholds. Examples include a house that has been converted into flats, or a row of terraced houses. Each property on the title must be a self-contained unit and can be rented out to different tenants.
