Nick has gone above and beyond expectation, he is calm and professional. He took all the worry and stress out of the application process and was in regular contact with me through out the process. Despite already having secured a mortgage offer for me, he re-visited my case and discussed porting my existing mortgage provider, who had initially said that it couldn’t be done. His perseverance has saved thousands in ERC charges. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nick to anyone looking for a mortgage. Brilliant service!

If you are looking for a mortgage advisor, look no further, you are in the right place, Ward James Mortgages (Nick) sorted our remortgage out within a couple of weeks, with one of the best rates on the market, which i was more than happy with. Kept me and the wife up to date right through the process, even chased the legals up. So what i thought was going to be a nightmare to sort, went super smooth. Thanks Nick for all your help, much appreciated. Andy.
