Vida unveils new holiday-let products

Vida Homeloans has introduced a new Holiday Buy to Let range, expanding its specialist lending offering for intermediaries. 

The products are designed for both holiday let purchases and remortgages, catering to first-time landlords and experienced investors seeking to diversify their portfolios.

The new range reflects Vida’s focus on providing brokers with flexible solutions tailored to landlords’ evolving needs. Holiday Buy to Let products are available for both individual and portfolio landlords and aim to support the growing demand for short-term rental investments in popular UK holiday destinations.

Alongside the Holiday Let launch, Vida has also introduced several enhancements across its wider Buy to Let offering:

Consumer Buy to Let range: Designed for accidental or non-professional landlords who have inherited or been gifted property. This range provides a more accessible entry into this regulated segment of the market while maintaining the protections of consumer buy-to-let mortgages.

‘Let to Move’ proposition: Applicants who are letting their property while buying, renting, moving abroad, living with relatives, or still deciding on their next step can now be considered. This flexible approach applies across the buy-to-let range, giving brokers more options for clients navigating life transitions.

Ross Williams, head of mortgage product management at Vida, said: “We’re proud to be expanding our Buy to Let offering in ways that reflect the real-world needs of landlords and the brokers who support them. The launch of our Holiday Let range is a key milestone, but it’s the broader enhancements—like our Consumer BTL and Let to Move On propositions—that show we’re listening to the intermediary market and responding with specialist solutions that make a difference.”
