The two-year tracker rates are offered from 5.00% (BBR + 2.75%), with up to 70% LTV.

SBI UK's executive director and deputy CEO Sanjay Pandey said, "We are happy to come back in the market to help landlords in this crucial time. Our tracker products are well placed to allow landlords to make a conscious decision on their buy-to-let transactions.
