Just wanted to say thank you to Kim Powell for all her support getting us a mortgage, she really does know her stuff. It’s taken me a while to come to leave a review, only just getting unpacked. Thank you Kim, I’m sure we will be back.

Incredible experience with Kim. She worked so hard for us and made it all worth it when we completed today. I would never use another broker. What a woman!!!

Kim provided exceptional support to both me and my son throughout what was a very complex situation, including transfer of equity on a shared ownership property and purchase of a retirement property At 61 and 21, we weren't the most straightforward case, and another mortgage adviser had already told us that what we wanted to achieve simply wasn't possible. We'd almost given up hope that we could both secure our own mortgages and own our own properties. Thankfully, we spoke to Kim. From the very beginning, she was knowledgeable, reassuring, and determined to find a solution. She guided us through every step, kept us informed throughout, and made what felt impossible become a reality. Thanks to Kim's expertise, we both now have our own homes and can move forward with confidence. We can't thank her enough for her professionalism, persistence, and genuine care. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kim to anyone, especially if they have a more complex situation.

Fantastic from start to finish! I worked with Oliver Wheatley, who was efficient, professional and always happy to answer any queries and questions. A very insightful mortgage advisor that would work hard to making the process smooth and seamless.
