To be perfectly honest, we thought that there was no way we could refinance our debt position, especially considering we had tried three brokers before meeting Garth. His knowledge was amazing and after our initial meeting, we had a really good feeling that he would be the solution we were looking for. Thank goodness, indeed he was and it was such a huge weight off our minds, knowing that we could amalgamate our historic problems and move forward. We ended up in a position that we now know we can cope with and it feels like such a weight has been lifted From us. We can’t thank you enough for all of the help and understanding with such a complex situation. At last financial freedom. Once again, thank you for all of your endeavors and the help you have given us. To recommend Garth would be an understatement More...

I have worked with hertslife (mainly Garth) on multiple occassions and would never use anybody else. Garth has always been upfront and honest with me which I have always appreciated and due to his many years experience, he is able to find ways around things that others have failed to do.

Garth is a true professional who knows his stuff, he put my mind to rest and provided me with the product I needed and spoke to me more as a friend than a client, I highly recommend him.

Garth Bernard is without a doubt the best mortgage broker out there. Myself my family and many friends have benefitted from his outstanding knowledge and professional advice . He will always find you the very best and competitive deal so my advice is to not even bother with another broker . Garth is always reliable honest and on time and explains all the jargon in a simple and easy to understand fashion . I give without hesitation a full 5 stars to Garth and his company as once you've found him you won't want to seek advice from anyone else . Many thanks Garth for your years of help. More...
