Buy-to-let remortgage searches increased 8% yearly in January, indicating that property managers continue to reassess loaning arrangements, Twenty7Tec analysis shows.
Total searches from advisers reached 291,468, down 4% from January but still 2% greater than February 2025.
In the domestic space remortgaging is a lot more crucial for advisors, as searches for remortgages were 19% higher year-on-year in February.
There were 688,053 remortgage searches from consultants, which still represents a decrease of 9% from January.
Nathan Reilly, chief consumer officer at Twenty7tec, said the information suggests the marketplace is moving from the early-year rise into a steadier pattern of activity.
“February’s figures suggest the market is settling into a more common rhythm following the strong rebound in adviser activity at the start of the year.
“While search volumes have moderated somewhat month on month, the reality activity remains greater than this time in 2015 highlights the ongoing resilience of consultant need.”
Across the marketplace as a whole, total home mortgage searches reached 1,814,583 in February 2026.
This represents a 4.6% reduction compared to January, following the seasonal surge in activity seen at the start of the year.
However, search volumes were still 3.6% higher than February 2025, highlighting continued adviser engagement with the market.
