Excellent! Myself and my partner are first time buyers and heard though other people that Sam was the best person to help us with the mortgage/buying process. He was amazing, always there to answer any questions we had whilst explaining everything in detail so that we understood. The mortgage process was made simple and easy, providing us with the best possible mortgage that there was for us at the time. Would 100% recommend! Thank you Sam!

We have used Sam as our FA for eight years and have always been more than satisfied with the service and outcome. The professionalism and dedication that Sam and his team demonstrate are second to none. We've also worked with Sam's colleague Michaela who demonstrates the same amazing skill set. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sam and his team.

Sam and Michaela are really good at what they do as soon as we were beginning to look at houses I got hold of Sam and everything we needed was done by the time we got to putting an offer in. They are really good at communicating throughout the whole process which made it so much easier for us knowing that the mortgage sides of things was sorted. I've used Whittlesea Mortgages for both my house moves and couldn't recommend them enough.

I could not recommend Whittlesea Mortgages more. Sam and Michaela were very attentive, patient and helpful even though we have changed our mind in regards to a property and our credit history wasn't the best but they have managed to get us the best deal possible. They've provided updates regularly which meant allot to us being first time buyers and provided advice in instructing solicitors and buying the necessary insurances. All in all very happy with their services

We cannot thank Whittlesea Mortgages enough for efforts in securing us a mortgage. Our house sale & purchase process wasn't a straight forward one and Whittlesea Mortgages worked hard to ensure we had the best mortgage possible. They went over and above with their services and were always on hand to answer any of our questions. I would highly recommend. They have a personal, professional and dedicated approach to their services. We will certainly be using them again in the further.

Samuel has been a great support from start to finish. I was very reserved when we had our first appointment with Samuel but straight away he put our minds at ease and explained everything with a excellent knowledge of the market. Personally we have some some factors that may have made our application a little more complex but Samuel was able to reassure us at every stage and secure the best product for us! His level of communication has been excellent throughout the whole process and we would highly recommend Whittlesea mortgages. We look forward to working with Samuel again in the future.

Samuel has being amazing, it's my first mortgage and house purchase and he has guided me through a fairly challenging and certainly not straight forward mortgage applications! But we have got there in the end thanks to all his hard work!! He has not only helped me secure a mortgage offer but also guided me through the various income protection policies on offer finding the most suitable one for my circumstances. Communication has being great all the way through, with clear explanation on the most suitable mortgages and protection policies. I can't thank him enough.
