Pre booking your new BM Solutions mortgage rate
You can pre-book a new mortgage rate with BM solutions up to 4 months ahead.
Therefore, for a new rate to start 1st May.
You can pre-book a rate from 1st January to start on 1st May.
You can pre-book a rate from 1st February to start on 1st March or 1st May.
You can pre-book a rate from 1st March to start on 1st April or 1st May.
You can book a rate from 1st April to start on 1st May.
It makes sense to book your new rate early, as this protects you for any rate rises in the months before your new rate expires.
If rates fall before your rate is due to start you still have the option to switch to the new, lower, rate.
BM Solutions Further Advances
BM solutions will not accept a further advance application within six months of completion of the original mortgage
A further advance application cannot be accepted within 12 months of completion of the previous further advance application on the same account
If the account is in arrears, these must be cleared and payments must have been made full on time for three consecutive months before a further advance application.
If an energy performance rating on the property is grade F or lower BM solutions will not accept a further advance (unless to raise funds to rectify this).
A further advance in the product transfer cannot currently be applied for at the same time. Either the product transfer has to be completed and then the further advance applied for, or the further advance has to be applied for and drawn down then the product transfer applied for.
If a product transfer is submitted and subsequently cancelled a further advance application cannot be made until the following month.
Birmingham Midshires buy-to-let existing customers need to arrange a product transfer through specialist brokers like ourselves. The good news is that we can arrange a BM Product Transfer for you swiftly, easily, and free of charge.

How our Birmingham Midshires Buy to Let existing customers Mortgage Product Transfer Service works
We need the following information to arrange your BM Solution Buy to Let mortgage product transfer.
- Your mortgage account number (starting 60, if the number you have starts with a ‘2’ or ’02’ it has been replaced by the 60 number)
- The full postal address of the buy-to-let property
- Your full name(s) and contact details
- Your home address
- Your date of birth
If you do not have your BM Mortgage account number to hand, check your online banking as it should be quoted in your DDM entry on your bank statement.
The Bank Account entry will look something like this:
BHAM MIDSHIRE REFERENCE
6092142091000000
The last two digits are not part of the mortgage account number, so in this case, the number we need is 60921420910000
Once we have the account number we can check with the lender your outstanding mortgage balance, the lender’s estimate of your property value, and your product transfer options. You then decide your preference. We then request the new rate from the BM on your behalf, and you have a single Authority Form to sign.
That’s it.
House Price Index
The House price index and your mortgage options as an existing BM Solutions buy to let borrower.
The loan to value on your mortgage account drives the mortgage rates offered to you when you select a new product. Loan to value is the ratio of the estimated value of the property to your mortgage balance. The estimated value is driven by the House Price Index.
A falling House Price Index leads to falling valuations and higher loan-to-value ratios. A higher loan-to-value can mean some of the more competitive rates are not available to you as a borrower.
What does this mean for you as a BM Solutions existing borrower?
If you are within four months of your current rate ending you can secure a new rate now before any valuation changes.
Securing a rate now will protect you from falling valuations, or future rate rises.
If available BM Solutions existing borrower mortgage rates fall between now and when your new rate is due to start, you have the option to pick up the lower rate.
Stick or save?
If you are already on a BM Solutions tracker rate you can make a big saving by switching to a new fixed rate. See how current tracker rates compare with an available 5-year fixed rate on a £100,000 mortgage.
| Standard Variable Rate | Available Fixed Rate | Difference | Monthly Saving |
| 8.34% | 4.73% | 3.61% | £300 |
| available 5 year fixed rate | per £100,000 |

How do BM Solutions’ product transfer rates compare?
The rates available from Birmingham Midshires on product transfer are competitive, but there may be more favourable rates available elsewhere on the market.
Being whole of market brokers we can, if requested, run a comparison for you so that you can ensure you get the best deal possible.
Remember, if you decide to move to a new lender rather than taking a product transfer you will need to:
- Pass a credit score with the new lender
- Have the property valued
- Prove your rental income*
- Prove bank statements (with most lenders)
- Prove your earned income (with most lenders)
- Cover legal costs (although some lenders will pay these for you)
*Recent changes to rental calculations across the buy-to-let mortgage may mean that under current circumstances your rental income may not be sufficient to support your existing lending. This may stop you from raising funding from a new lender, but does not affect your ability to request a product transfer

BM Solutions are the market leader in buy-to-let mortgages in the UK and are part of the Lloyds Banking Group. Below we outline some of the underwriting considerations that make BM Solutions so popular in the market, and underwriting issues you need to be aware of.
