Chris was very professional and knew his stuff, he understood my situation which wasn’t straight forward! I had been turned away by other brokers and banks, Chris managed to get me a mortgage much to my delight! Would highly recommend
What do you love most about your job?
Job satisfaction - Guiding clients through what is essentially the biggest purchase and one of the biggest decisions they will ever make in their life.
Variety - Every client has different individual circumstances and no two days are ever the same.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I am not from a sales background, my mortgage experience is from 13 years of working in New Lending, Quality Assurance and underwriting roles within banks.
I decided to start my own business, as it allows me the freedom to advise on my own terms and build long-standing relationships with clients. Rather than just to hit monthly quotas set by sales managers.
Why should our clients choose you?
What I do above and beyond a standard mortgage advisor is, in addition to mortgage advice, I also provide protection advice (Life Cover, Critical Illness Cover, Income Protect Cover etc), I arrange any home insurance needed and I also arrange solicitors to complete any conveyancing work, selected from a panel of specialists that I use.
I have a wealth of experience on both sides of the fence within the mortgage industry, both as an advisor and working in Quality Assurance and underwriting roles within banks.
I am a whole-of-market broker, meaning I consider all lenders that I have access to. I am not tied to any one lender, or small panel.
