Jonathan helped us with the mortgage process, and that was all quite smooth and professionally managed, as we were hoping when getting an independent broker. He definitely went above and beyond though and offered valuable experience when we had issues with other parts of the purchase process.

Jonathan has been my mortgage broker for many years. Every time I've been in contact, nothing is too much trouble. I always get honest, professional advice. He really goes the distance to ensure he gets the best deal available. Most recently he securiled a 10 year fixed 6 months before my current deal expires helping me avoid the most recent rate rise. It will save me thusands over the coming years. Can not recommend highly enough.
