What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

The main reason was for a straightforward honest appraisal of what we could actually afford with nothing left to chance. This kind of advice is simply not available from your bank if you are looking for accurate advice and outcomes.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

From the first time we used Steve he has been a tremendous help in every way, always delivering clear, sound advice and explaining all the options we have in terms that we can easily understand with nothing overlooked. Steve is our first, and only port of call when it comes to financial advice as I could not see us getting the same excellent quality anywhere else.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

As always, the outcome was never in question. Straight from the off we knew Steve would deliver and he has excelled once again.

What could they have done better?

There is always room for improvement as one would say however, I cannot think of anything that Steve could have differently to enhance the service.

Moving house, needed a mortgage advisor to ensure we got the best deal, both in terms of suitability and cost effectiveness.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve provided excellent advice consistently. He was very thorough and explained the pros, cons and considerations of a variety of different options. He also managed to put fairly complex scenarios and variables into layman's terms which made it very easy for my wife and I to choose the best options for us. Steve was also extremely patient and never once tried to hurry or pressure us, which helped remove the stress from quite a tricky set of circumstances.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Initial first time mortgage (credit default, small deposits, first time buyer). Remortgage (bad credit).

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve was instrumental in the success of our mortgage search. He understands the market, the lenders and the products to narrow the options down perfectly for the products that are likely to accept you. This was fundamental for us as we had credit issues. Steve is a flexible worker and always keeps you updated on the progress of your mortgage and the communications he is having. When we had problems during our first mortgage through our solicitor he was proactive and supportive in communicating directly with them, which was not in the scope of his role. Where mortgage application nuances arise, Steve is able to effectively manage these to reduce the stress or impact on us as customers. His relationships with the lenders is evident by the way he coordinated a manually underwritten mortgage for our first mortgage. He is also very willing to take the time in explaining the process and the reasons for each step. Without Steve we absolutely would not be in our beautiful home, for which we could not be more grateful. I recommend Steve to family and friends who I know have utilised his services.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely- we have loved in our home for 2 year and just secured our 5 year remortgage through Steve and his exceptional service. Even though we dif not necessarily need a mortgage broker during our remortgage, we felt strongly that the service, advice and outcome obtained by Steve was worth every penny we would spend for it. It is vital that the right expertise is provided during the mortgage process so as to protect your credit history and options, and Steve is able to do that.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Initiaially we were looking for our first mortgage many years ago and Steve was the first person we spoke to after visiting many other mortgage brokers we came back to Steve - the only person we thought would look after our interests. So a few years later we found him again - thankfully. Bought our second house with his help.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

He helped us get our first mortgage with some difficult situations. He has now helped us get a bigger mortgage and was able to understand my complicated working details - being a contractor worker.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Definitely. We now have 3 houses! He is alaways available and ready to discuss matters until completion, even though his job was completed upon acceptance of the application.

We were looking to get a new repayment mortgage in place of our existing interest only mortgage when we purchased our new home.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve was great. He looked at various different options for us and was mindful of our monthly budget when initially selecting products for us to look at. He was extremely professional from start to finish. He understood exactly what our financial needs were for the long term. Nothing was too much trouble and he took the time to go over everything and explain it fully. The whole process was completely stress free and he really took the time to follow things up and push things through so as not to delay receiving our mortgage offer. I could not recommend him enough.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

We were successful in getting the mortgage we applied for within our budget. I definitely feel that Steve helped us to secure the best deal out there. My husband is self employed which always makes things more tricky. Steve also assisted with getting us life insurance alongside our new mortgage. Again he shopped around for the best deal for us which was very competitive.

Needed a new mortgage, but was not going to be straightforward for a number of reasons.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Firstly Steve spoke to us at great length to ascertain our exact needs and to explain the different products available. Once he had found us an appropriate product, he guided us expertly through the numerous steps required to complete the process. Our application was not straightforward for a number of reasons and Steve was in touch daily to help us progress through the process. He frequently went out of his way to make things easier - visiting family members and solicitors to collect signatures and deliver documents. In addition to the new mortgage, Steve also proposed life assurance and buildings and contents insurance, both of which we subsequently purchased.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely!.

What could they have done better?

There is nothing that Steve could have done to improve, his customer service is first class! He makes you feel that you are his sole concern, yet you know what that you are not, so how on earth does he have time in his life to dedicate so much time to each client? Yet he does! A financial adviser needs to able to lead the client through the vast forest of financial and legal jargon whilst recognising the client's level of understanding so as not to appear patronising or overbearing, and Steve does exactly that.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Following family illness and unsatisfactory support from our current mortgage company we needed someone to give objective advice in relation to remortgaging. We had been planning to move but my parents ( who live in an annexe to our home) had significantly declining health and it was in their best interests to remain in the current home. My husbands is over 70 and I am the main earner with a large pension and 13 years younger. My daughter and her husband and son live with us whilst he I training as a paramedic. Despite all the income into the home and independent resources of all we were just outside people's policies.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve undertook extensive searches for a niche mortgage for our niche property a large house with attached bungalow. He identified a range of products and really persisted until he found the right one including taking calls and emails on holiday. He visited us at home, explained everything fully from monthly payments, risks, advantages to forward options, his fees etc. A brilliant personal approach with regular phone and email updates.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely and for the first time in a number of years I now have a great new mortgage and can financially plan ahead knowing the five year fixed rate but also the rates after that and Steve has diarist talking to us before the end of the fixed rate.

What could they have done better?

Honestly nothing at all. He was everything my major bank was not. Communication, knowledge, personal tailoring to need our needs. Dealing with the bank building society solicitors etc all very efficient. The only thing I prompted him on was sending me his invoice for payment and again the costs were very reasonable for the level and quality of support given

We were moving home - selling and buying together for the first time - and were looking for an impartial expert to take us through the mortgage application process.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve was excellent from the word go. He understood exactly what we needed, presented a range of products and explained them to us in a way that was easy for us to understand. He was always able to answer any questions, was freely available on the 'phone, and even did some emergency handholding and information gathering when a solicitor asked for an extra piece of information. The most important thing Steve did for us was to identify that if we went with a certain product we would avoid early repayment charges, saving us nearly £5,000. Equally, we found while working with Steve that we had a larger budget than we thought available to us - enabling us to move to the exact area we wanted. All in all, working with Steve showed us the real value you get when working with an expert.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely - we were able to move home! The recommendations we received were ideal for us, the product we chose really suits our needs and, crucially, we were successful in getting a mortgage!.

What could they have done better?

Honestly, we don't have a bad word to say. This was our second house purchase so we were still very green when it came to our knowledge and understanding of this kind of thing. Steve's open, impartial and honest approach enables you as a customer to get to the heart of what it is you want to achieve. I would 100% recommend Steve's services and, should we ever want to move again, I'll be calling him!

Steve listened carefully to my requirements and, after clarifying a few points with me, he talked me through my options, explaining the pros and cons of each; he was very clear and concise and did not use unnecessary jargon.

We were buying a house and looking for the best mortgage.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

My wife and I highly recommend Steve at Personal Mortgage Solutions. His knowledge, style, understanding and manner are exactly what we needed when we were making the biggest purchase of our lives. Steve was recommended to us and after finding a house we needed to move quickly and Steve was right there ready to help us. From the beginning Steve wanted to add the “Personal” to Personal Mortgage Solutions, travelling more than ninety minutes to see us and listening to what we wanted from a mortgage and insurance, offering his advice and suggestions. We came to a decision very quickly and we were able to move forward and purchase our dream house. Along the way Steve was right with us. He was available to speak to at any time, day or night and it never felt like an inconvenience to him. We felt like the most important people to him even though he was dealing with other clients and we were particularly impressed with this, as he understood what we were going through as first time buyers offering support whenever we needed it. During our journey of buying our house we had various, and at times significant, problems with solicitors, vendors and estate agents. Steve was there to help us out whenever we got stuck with any of them, going well beyond the normal role of a financial advisor. He helped us out enormously and without doubt we would not be in our house if it weren’t for Steve’s help. Steve is a very smart gentleman, a lovely guy and a pleasure to deal with. We would not hesitate in recommending him to any of my family or friends and when our mortgage term is up we certainly will be using him again. Thanks for all your help Steve!.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

We were moving to a larger house with 2 young children.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve visited us to help us see what we could afford. Then throughout the process came to us for paperwork etc so we didn't have to find babysitters or try to deal with bank calls with babies around. Took the stress out of the move.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

We're in the house we wanted (after several months searching) it only took 6 weeks between offer going in and moving.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

My fiancé and I were first time buyers and wanted expert advice on the various mortgage and insurance options available. As our budget was tight, we needed someone who was going to deliver at a reasonable price.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

After a preliminary phone call, Steve met with us in person late one evening at my parents' house to discuss the various different mortgage options available to us and gave us advice on how much we could afford, and which options best suited our needs. After this meeting, we put down an offer on a house and Steve was very quick arranging some quotes for us - he got us a really good mortgage rate with a building society and because the Estate Agents were very difficult, he spoke to them on our behalf, which really was above and beyond the call of service. He completed all the paperwork for the mortgage application for us and was the go-between, which relieved a lot of stress from us! Everything went through smoothly and he was always incredibly polite and provided great service. After the house exchanged, he also provided quotes for buildings/contents and life insurance, as well as provided us with information on the other insurance covers available.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, we completed on our house and got the mortgage/insurance we wanted.

Wanted some reliable advice on what was best for us mortgage wise.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve was amazing from start to finish always on the end of the phone to talk us through anything we weren't 100% sure on or just some reassurance. Such a friendly guy really puts your mind at ease as moving can be a very stressful time but Steve made it that much eaiser!! 100% in all areas.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes even better than we thought it would be!.

What could they have done better?

Nothing!!

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

We initially used Steve through an estate agents when buying our first house 5 years ago, but have since used him a few more times for mortgage renewal and general advice. I trust Steve completely and he is the only person I will ever go to for financial advice or needs!.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

He helped us find our first mortgage and then remortgage after that too. He did all the leg work which was very nice because it can get very confusing when looking at interest rates and mortgages!.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

We are currently living in our house and are very comfortable with the mortgage thanks to Steve. It is definitely the outcome I was hoping for!.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I was buying my first home and required expert advice in terms of mortgages.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve helped me secure my first house via the Help to Buy scheme, which I wasn't familiar with at the time. He made it easy for me and took the stress away from dealing with borrowers directly, especially as this was my first house.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I have my house and am already discussing with Steve the best options for remortgaging when interest rates rise. Steve helps me to understand how best to plan for the future.

What could they have done better?

I don't think he could have done anything better. Perhaps a simply presented excel page or word document showing what my deposit was, how much the bank loaned and how much the government gave me, etc. so I could see everything at a glance.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

My wife and I had just celebrated the birth of our first child and life insurance was at the front of my mind, I needed to ensure my wife and child would be ok and I didn't know where to start.

How has Steve Farrell helped you?

Steve was excellent, we knew each other from a previous mortgage which he had organised for us and he explained all options to me without any bias and I believe we found the right solution for me.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I am extremely happy with my insurance, Steve suggested critical illness cover which I hadn't considered and now I'm extremely grateful that he was there to advise.

What could they have done better?

Genuinely there was nothing I would have changed, he helped me work out what I could budget, the type of cover which was right for me and I believe we found the right product for me
