When it came to buying my next home, I went no further than Simon. He helped me 4 years ago with my first home, and now when it was time to change things up, and I was greeted warmly and with total professionalism. Simon ensured he secured us the best possible rate, and alongside that made a stressful process mostly stress free, going above and beyond for us at the final hurdle - keeping me calm on settlement day Thanks again Simon, i will continue to recommend you widely

I have used Simons services twice with little issue. He has been helpful, courteous and efficient on both occasions. He communicates in an open and transparent manner. Being a visual person, he even had to draw a diagram to explain financial numbers to me, but he was happy to clarify anything I was confused with. If you are looking for someone to get the job done quickly, Simon is your man I heartily endorse Simon to anyone in need of a Mortgage Broker. Thank you Simon for your wonderful help.

I had always been uncertain about using a mortgage broker but having recently refinanced with Simon I would never go back to dealing directly with a bank. His regular and clear communication, sage advice about navigating the application process and experience in dealing with our complex loans have really paid off. We now have one of the lowest interest rates on the market which ticked all the boxes in matching our requirements.

We couldnt have ask for a better mortgage broker than Simon. Simon was highly proactive, diligent and responsive anytime of the day or week throughout the process. From our initial meeting he clearly explained to us as to what was required and how much we had to have in our saving for the house deposit. Simon also extensively knowledgeable about the banks requirements and how to manage their expectations. Despite leading to Christmas holidays in December, Simon managed to have our mortgage loan approve in 2 weeks We couldnt have been more grateful for Simons effort. He truly treat our application as if his own. Without Simon guidance we wouldnt have been in our new house. We couldnt recommend Simon highly enough to whoever is considering mortgage loan. Thank you Simon for making our dream a reality.
