Two property portals which provide services for landlords are to form a partnership which is intended to make their services more accessible to property letters.

Buy-to-let mortgage brokerage The Money Centre is allying with rental sector service provider Smartlandlord.co.uk in a new cooperative arrangement which the former company has described as a "fantastic opportunity".

The Money Centre will be directing its clients to Smartlandord.co.uk's services via online and telephone-based channels, allowing buy-to-let mortgage customers more easily find other relevant products, such as insurance and tenant databases.

Kesh Thukaram, managing director of Smartlandlord.co.uk, said: "This collaboration will help us empower even more landlords to save money and reduce risks in managing their property portfolios."

Last week, Mr Thukaram welcomed figures from the Council of Mortgage Lenders which suggested that the buy-to-let market was beginning to recover and called for an accompanying increase in lending to help landlords to capitalise.
