Mortgage Advice
James has been brilliant and always appears to be at the end of the phone no matter the size of the query at hand. James continually goes above and beyond and has a real understanding of the size of the transactions from a customer lens when it comes to moving house. Often, in my experience, professionals can view it as a transaction and treat it as such, not keeping the customer in the loop and creating unnecessary anxiety.
Not only have I seen the outcome I was looking for but more often than not, better than I was looking for - once, we had a mortgage agreed and I was happy with the outcome, it would have been easy for James to think, job done. But no, James continue to look and came back to me with a better deal saving me significantly each month.
In my experience, I've been delighted with everything and had no issues.

We were looking for a mortgage.
The property we were interested in was very popular, so James was brilliant at arranging a mortgage offer very swiftly in order that we could put in an offer on the property. He also managed to get our mortgage application over the line when our offer was accepted, right before the rates went up! We're very grateful to him for acting so swiftly on both accounts.
Yes, we did. We have the keys to our new property and can't wait to move in!

To receive the perfect advice and deals on my mortgage.
James secured us an affordable and ideal mortgage which consisted of everything we needed. James made the process easy and stress free.
Yes.
Nothing James has went above and beyond.
I wished to release some of the equity in my property and knew that I needed truly independent financial advice before I did so.
James carried out a thorough examination of my financial circumstances and then matched me up with a suitable lender. He kept in communication with me throughout the whole process and was an absolute pleasure to deal with, simplifying what could have been an extremely stressful process.
Yes, despite some complexities caused by my property, the process was concluded successfully and I have secured a very competitive deal.
I really cannot think of anything.

Purchasing of a second home and needed to act quickly to find a product to enable us to make an offer.
Advice on mortgage types to match our situation, applying for a decision in principle and then getting an offer from the selected lender.
Yes. Very rapidly.
Honestly, probably nothing. I was delighted with his approach - it really matched our needs. He worked much faster than any other advisers we have had in the past. He listened carefully to our requirements and so there was no need to reiterate or correct any parameters. I would have utmost faith that James would do the same for anybody else - it really takes the stress out if you can rely on your adviser and if you can trust them to get you what you need in an efficient manner.
My previous mortgage company had passed my mortgage on to a new company, which started charging me what I considered to be an extortionate rate of interest.
I am over 70 so was very doubtful that I would be able to remortgage my house but James found a mortgage for me within days.
The outcome was better that I had hoped for: I now have a mortgage with a rate of interest that is not much more than half what I have been paying
I can't think of anything he could have done better. He answered all my questions in a clear and direct manner and I cannot fault him.
