Reviews of Advantage FS - Mortgage and Life Insurance specialist broker
V. J.
Highly recommend Advantage FS, this was my second time using their services and they do not disappoint. Due to the percentage rates, we were uncertain from the get go but Steve Morris was professional, positive and approachable throughout.
We cannot thank you for your fantastic service! Due to difficult times, you took what turned out to be an extremely challenging application and successfully navigated us through the process to a successful conclusion. In every single step, you proved to be friendly, patient, polite, knowledgeable, and consistently available for all our questions. We both also needed to update our insurances, Laurence understood our expectation's and collated great cover and explained throughout. People say buying a house is one of the most stressful times but with Advantage FS how can it be....
Thanks again guys,

I received an absolute flawless service with Advantage FS, I cannot fault them. If you're looking for a 5 Star Mortgage Broker then look no further.
Their expertise and meticulous work ethic were incredible. I was a first-time buyer so the whole process was naturally daunting for me, but Dan explained everything step by step and responded to all my questions very swiftly.
These are the guys you want, trust me!

I would highly recommend AdvantageFS to anyone buying a home. Tom worked on our case, and as first time buyers, he was patient and knowledgeable and always willing to help no matter how many questions. Throughout our house buying process we had a number of challenges and Tom helped sort and smooth all of them. We also had another colleague James, who was also very good, helping us through home insurance. Both were always polite and helpful, and made the house buying process much less stressful!

Recently remortgaged a property. The process went on forever and a day and the solicitors thought communication was optional, but this was no fault of Advantage FS. I mainly dealt with Steve, the mortgage broker and Hannah, the para planner who were nice people, very helpful and generally fantastic. In fact, despite them having secured my new mortgage and me having paid their fee, they still responded to a couple of my emails, when my solicitors couldn't be bothered. I would recommend their service in a heartbeat.

This is the first time we've used Advantage and I cannot recommend them enough! From start to finish they have "held our hands" throughout from advising on the process of application clearly and in easy to understand terms, in ensuring we had all the necessary documentation and evidence required in advance of submission to the mortgage lender, in explaining the advantages and disadvantages in mortgage terms, fixed and variable products etc and especially in our particular case with myself being self employed for only a relatively short time and needing to move fast securing a very good rate in an amazingly quick time.
Every member of staff we have had any contact with have been friendly, professional and efficient - during what often is a stressful process Advantage FS have gone above and beyond to to ensure our mortgage application sailed though with the minimum amount of fuss.
In short if you are looking to get a mortgage no matter your circumstances, I really don't think you could get a better broker than Advantage FS
A. H.
We cant give enough praise and gratitude for everyone we dealt with at Advantage FS.
Hannah and James were extremely helpful and came through when we needed them too with very short notice.
Ryan was our broker and we honestly believe we wouldn’t have made it into our new home if we hadn’t used him. We had the usual nightmare with solicitors but, Ryans professionalism and calm manner helped the stressful process of buying our first home go a lot smoother. His forward thinking and advice was key and he continued to assist us right up until our completion date!
Thank you so much team, we are extremely grateful for all your hard work!
N. E.
I had previously been told by a mortgage advisor that we wouldn’t get a mortgage but then we found Tom at Advantage FS. We can’t thank Tom and the whole team enough for all their help. As first time buyers the whole process seemed very overwhelming but Tom took the time to answer our questions and always responded promptly. We were always kept in the loop with regular updates which was very reassuring. We really appreciate Tom for
working so hard to get out mortgage application in on time to beat the rise in interest rates. I would highly recommend Tom and the team. Also big thanks to Larry who again spent time sorting the insurance side of things, always a pleasure to chat with Larry. And finally …thank you to James for keeping us in the loop and regularly updating. You’re all just simply wonderful! Thank you 🙏
K. G.
Ryan from Advantage has been such a wonderful help in securing us the best possible mortgage while remortgaging our house. Always brilliant with communications and leading the way with supportive and helpful chats through the process. I feel Ryan goes above and beyond to push forward what can be a stressful time obtaining and completing on a mortgage and we really couldn’t have asked any more from him. Just a great all round service.
j. p.
Had a really great service from Dan Light at Advantage recently. He made buying our first home as easy and stress-free as possible, the process much easier to understand and opened us up to options we weren't aware we had. He was always on hand to answer any questions we had and was super supportive throughout. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Advantage to anyone, they were invaluable!
K. T.
I'm retired and have specialist mortgage needs so I looked for an adviser and found Advantage FS. One of the better choices I've made in life for sure. Tom, my adviser, was knowledge, helpful and found me the funds I needed at a competitive rate. He was always available to patiently endure my questions and reviews so I feel confident in the advice that he gave me. Strongly recommend.
J. N.
At a time when mortgages are particularly volatile, Advantage FS were exactly what we needed. Michael talked us through every aspect of applying for our first joint mortgage and made the entire process simple and easy to understand. We ended up opting for a mortgage from somewhere we wouldn't have considered with Advantage FS, at a better rate than the high street banks or going it alone.
Highly recommend Advantage FS for all your mortgage needs!
C. T.
Steve and his team are absolutely incredible. It has been so easy to buy our house through Advantagefs. Everything has been going so quickly. We haven’t had to do anything except decide on a house we liked! Thanks so much to everyone who has been involved in us buying our house. You have been absolutely incredible and it’s been a great stress free experience!!
M. P.
Phenomenal service from Eliana on our remortgage. She was extremely informative and detailed and helped us immensely with finding the best deal for our situation. We have her to thank for the good deal we have now despite the crazy market at the moment. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for quality, sound mortgage advice and service. Don't bother going anywhere else!
S. P.
We would highly recommend Advantage FS for all of your mortgage needs. Especially a big thank you to Eliana who dealt with our remortgage from start to finish. Communication was superb and what seems like a minefield in todays market was made a breeze by her professionalism and making a serious situation exciting. Her knowledge of the products available to us put us at ease and gave us confidence right through the process.
I would also like to thank Laurence who also with great professionalism provided an Income Protection policy at a very reasonable premium.
I would not hesitate to use this company again in the future.
K. W.
Ryan Harvey at Advantage FS was fantastic and hugely supportive. As a first time buyer and buying during a period of uncertainty, Ryan was extremely helpful and explained all the steps and the process very clearly to me, whilst also being very patient with my many questions. The process was extremely smooth and all executed very quickly. I felt supported during this time and would highly recommend Advantage FS and Ryan Harvey! thank you!!
C. J. (.
Susannah Truslove was really brilliant and took a lot of the stress out of the process of buying my first property. She took time to understand my requirements and was really patient my complete lack of understanding of the mortgage market!! We had a few challenges along the way and it was fantastic knowing that Sue was just at the end of the phone/email to answer any of my queries. She was also incredibly proactive communicating with the estate agent and solicitors on my behalf as needed. I can’t thank Sue enough for all her help!
T. H.
Advantage were recommended to us by our estate agent after our previous mortgage arranged by another broker fell through. We were in quite a stressful situation as the seller was threatening to pull out of the deal so we needed someone to help us get another mortgage fast.
Sue was incredible. Very calm and clear about what steps we needed to take and managed to get us a new mortgage in principle that suited our requirements within about 48 hours. From then onwards it was just a question of waiting for the lender to take their time processing all the paperwork... Sue was very helpful with chasing them regularly and keeping us updated at every stage of the process.
We're very grateful to Sue and the rest of the team at Advantage for helping us through a stressful process and enabling us to successfully complete the purchase of our new home.
D. M.
The best mortgage adviser firm in the south west in my opinion. Tom Collier our mortgage adviser was very professional and diligent in getting myself and my partner the best mortgage rate on the market.
I would 100% recommend to friends and family and will be a life time customer for any future endeavours. 5 stars from me
D. C.
Michael at Advantage FS was fantastic! We approached Advantage FS as we were advised by a mainstream mortgage advisor that we would not be able to obtain the mortgage we required due to being newly self employed. Michael's expertise made us feel at ease as he guided us through the process. Highly recommend!
G. B.
Worked with Dan Pike from Advantage FS for our first property buy and he has been very professional and put client first in recommending suitable product.
He followed up and supported us from the mortgage process until approval and all the way up-to completion.
Fortunate to have advantage FS and Dan Pike as our mortgage advisor , we are always kept updated on the progress.
Would strongly recommend Dan and Advantage FS for our friends.
J. R.
Advantage FS were the best part of buying a house for me. Their advice was invaluable, precise and prompt. I came from a difficult situation fleeing an abusive situation and Advantage FS treated my case delicately ensuring I was supported throughout the process of buying a shared ownership house. I owe them so much for helping me get my fresh start and making things easier for me. Sue in particular was a mortgage angel going above and beyond for me and making sure my anxiety wasn't getting me down! Thanks so much :)
G. T.
Tom and the Team have been fantastic in helping us secure a mortgage for our next home. We’ve had some relatively complicated questions, a drama during the chain and some last minute changes, all of which were handled professionally, expediently and courteously. I can’t recommend FS highly enough - really helped the process of moving.
E. S.
Sue was totally wonderful from the first conversation we had, where I had no idea what getting a mortgage entailed...she was clear and positive and so communicative throughout the whole process. She was always available to answer questions and clarify where we were up to and did so in a friendly, upbeat and personal manner every time. Can't thank her enough! I would recommend her to anyone, especially if you're a freelancer with an unusual income pattern like me.
H. S.
I have used Advantage FS on more than 1 occasion now for remortgaging both my residential and buy to let properties and the service that I have received is outstanding.
Not only they helped me choose the best products from the market, but also helped me chase the solicitors to get the job done in timely manner.
Highly recommended.
G. S.
Fabulous service, we 100% recommend. We approached Sue with a view to finding out what we would have to do to get a mortgage as first time buyers. After our first chat we realised we’d be able to buy straight away, and so we were on the journey. It was a long and not straight forward path due to the first house falling through and my confusing short term creative work contracts but Sue and the team went above and beyond to help us every step of it. The information was always presented clearly. The phone was always answered. We felt very supported through what is a definitely tricky process. So thank you! We love our first home.
z. m.
I would highly recommend Advantage FS. They provide very professional and excellent service. I have been dealing with Susannah Truslove and she is absolutely the best, very experienced, friendly and super helpful. I can’t recommend her more! I now got my mortgage offer through and very looking forward to moving into my new home in the New Year! Being from the EU brought more challenges to my mortgage application e.g. transferring my EU funds, getting an EU gifted letter approved etc. Thank you ever so much Sue and Advantage for all your help and for making my dream to come true very soon!

I was previously with an excellent broker. This was someone with inside connections and an extensive knowledge of the market. When they where unable to secure me a mortgage and reported it impossible, I thought I would try someone else but not expecting much.
I was very surprised that Sue could not only get a product but one with very good rates.
Have since benefitted from Sue’s expertise and professionalism for three subsequent products.
Unfortunately the most recent one has been particularly stressful. Sue has gone above and beyond to not only secure me a product but being kind and generous throughout.
I would recommend Sue’s services to anyone and everyone! Unsurprisingly other friends who I recommended her to are equally thrilled with the service and will not be looking elsewhere in the future.
K. B.
Susannah helped me with my mortgage and buying my first home last year and I honestly couldn't have done it without her. She was an invaluable mine of information and comfort when going through the process by myself. She was 100% worth the money and I would recommend her to anyone, but especially people who are anxious or worried as she was so kind and understanding. Thank you Sue for everything!
L. M.
The biggest thank you Sue for helping me with my first home purchase! I didn’t think I’d be able to do it so soon! The help and advice you’ve given me from start to finish has been so so helpful and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone considering a broker for their mortgage. And a huge thanks to James for all his help too. You made it possible for me to get on the property ladder!
M. P.
Steve and his team have been great all the way through the re-mortgage process to get to the transaction finely over the line as the market is moving in the wrong direction!!! Fantastic work ... you have made a very happy client and I would recommend you to anyone who asked as you do have access to mortgage deals I would never been aware of any other way and then see the deal through to the very end.
R. R.
Huge thank you to James Thomas-Howard and Steve Morris for helping us get the mortgage we needed and making the whole process a lot less stressful. They have an excellent level of service and industry knowledge and got us over the line during the rapidly changing recent market conditions. We wouldn't have got there without them and wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend them.
J. B.
We are first time buyers and cannot thank Sue at Advantage enough. We’re based in Norfolk so not local to their offices in Bristol but everything was really easy with the client portal so all our documents were quickly uploaded and reviewed. I’ve found Sue incredibly responsive, and she’s made sure we have been kept informed and provided with options at each step along the way. It really makes a difference being kept up to date, not having to chase and being given realistic time frames of what we can expect and when. More importantly, we have been given space to ask questions and understand the process. I honestly cannot fault the service. It’s prompt, friendly and well informed. If there was the option of more stars, I’d give more. Thank you for all your help.
S. F.
Tom and the team at Advantage have been endlessly helpful and found us a great deal in times of turmoil with interest rates etc. The advice was calm, thorough and relevant. We have been hugely impressed by the professionalism, services rendered and availability of the team. I would recommend Tom and Advantage to anyone.
G. C.
Brilliant service from Michael. Good on the text and always worked out of hours which was convenient as didn’t interrupt our own working days. Worked hard to get two mortgage offers for our BTL property; both personal and then through a company (because we changed our minds!).
Michael was patient and couldn’t have helped us any more even if he tried !
R. L.
Thank you for all the help with getting our first mortgage. Would 100% recommend Advantage FS for all their mortgage needs. Tom has been fantastic and made the whole process easy for us!
N. S.
I would thoroughly recommend Advantage, and in particular Ryan Harvey. He provided an absolutely exceptional level of support throughout the process, had all the right contacts with the underwriting teams, and helped me secure a highly competitive mortgage notwithstanding my complex income structure. Making himself available in the evenings, weekends and even while on holiday to get it over the line, he is a commensurate professional and a true asset to Advantage.
S. K.
Could not recommend Advantage FS enough!! The team are all fantastic, really friendly & helpful. Dan Light especially made our complicated and non straight forward remortgage as stress free as possible. He went above & beyond for us, was easy to get hold of, responded to queries and worries quickly and overall made this a much less daunting experience than we’d first thought! Thanks so much Dan!
A. P.
Just the best…responsive, reliable, an honest broker, a market magician who doesn’t give up. Steve Morris has successfully remortgaged my holiday let twice. My young have bought their homes through him and Advantage fs. The business? advantage for sure!
S. F.
Mike provided excellent service, top communication and got me a great deal! He ensured a smooth process throughout and worked some magic to get the mortgage offer through before a rates increase. Would recommend!
S. H.
Susannah Truslove from Advantage worked extremely hard for me in finding a suitable mortgage to match my needs. She worked tirelessly until she found the exact product and provider and she kept me regularly updated throughout the whole process. I would thoroughly recommend her.
P. M.
Honestly couldn't praise Steven enough. We were struggling to get a mortgage company that accepted bonuses but Steven came through for us. Great communication and a speedy service, would highly recommend Advantage FS and more so Steven.
N. A.
A massive thank you to Steve and James for all their help with my mortgage application. As a first time buyer this was a very daunting process but both made it so easy from start to finish! They were both really prompt with emails and ensured I had everything I needed to enable my approval. Thank you again!
C. H.
Where to begin!? Honestly, buying a house has always seemed so daunting in my mind, especially as a first time buyer and all the mortgage advisors I have come across have always over complicated everything and made it seem like a huge hurdle! Untill I met my Knight and shining armour Dan Light. He managed to get me the mortgage I needed despite my complicated situation and he fought my corner untill everything was officially granted to me. He truely went above and beyond and I cannot express my appreciation enough but he will forever be the person I turn to and recommend people to when it comes to a mortgage.
I cannot recommend him enough. 5 star service. James was also great too.
Thank you guys!
S. H.
Many thanks to Rudo Hewitt who kept me informed throughout and worked really hard to get me the best mortgage he could. It was well worth going through a broker. Couldn't have managed it so well or at such a good rate on my own.
K. J.
Introduced to Dan about two years ago when I was buying to let. I had issues because it was a new limited company and I didn't have my own mortgage, I also keep changing jobs so it makes harder. At the time Dan wasn't able to help, so he introduced me to someone who could (bridging). He spent a lot of time and effort helping me. As soon as a product became available, he sorted two buy to let mortgages. Fast forward six months and another change in my job, more money as a contractor but less chance of a mortgage. Not a problem for Dan. He knows the market very well and knew what was needed. I have just been offered a fantastic deal fixed for five years. Dan worked extra hard to get everything done in time, days before the market changed and products started been withdrawn. He asked me to organise something to ensure that we could get the deal, me being a busy fool, I nearly missed out, but Dan organised it instead to make sure I didn't. I cannot recommend Dan and Advantage FS enough. All my future purchases will go through him and If I ever have the pleasure to meet him in person, the pints are on me.
Not often you get this level of service from a company. Five star plus!
J. W.
Amazing service from Susannah and the team. all very clearly communicated, fast and friendly too. Helped us navigate several issues and reach a great solution. 1000% recommendation for the Services Susannah offers. Worth every penny to us.
T. M.
Great service again. This is the 2nd time we have used Advantage FS and in particular, our broker, Ryan Harvey. Really easy to deal with, Ryan looked after us through the entire process. He is proffessional, friendly and very pro-active, constantly chasing and keep us informed along the way. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend, and we'll be in touch when our next project is ready.
A.
Dan Light was my mortgage broker and he really is one of the best. I didn’t have a straight forward case as i was self employed and a 2nd time buyer many brokers who i approached were just too afraid to take the case on i wasted weeks having conversations which led to nothing. Soon as i got in touch with Dan i saw instant results he didn’t leave any leaf unturned and found me a mortgage lender who was perfect for me. Dan was so paitent and calm no matter how many times a issue came up he kept me strong till the finishing line. I can’t praise Dan and the company enough. A broker who actually cares about you with the best of intentions. I knew i could face anything with Dan by my side.
B. W.
We were really impressed by the outstanding service we received from Eliana. Having been advised by another broker that we could not get a mortgage due to my wife having only recently obtained her UK spouse visa, we reached out to Eliana who took time to understand our circumstances and promptly came back to us with some options that would work for us. Eliana took multiple calls often at short notice to answer queries and made sure to submit our application on the same day we made a decision, before the lender's rates expired. She has also taken time to answer questions since we received our offer and has been friendly and patient (we are first time buyers) throughout. I also liked the online portal, which made it easy and secure to submit documentation too. Thanks Eliana!
M. W.
Absolutely fantastic service, Ellie deserves 6 stars out of 5. She has been so helpful with everything from start to finish, always going the extra mile to sort things out and lovely to deal with.
I would highly recommend to anyone as I couldn't have asked for more during the entire process.
P. M.
Great service, highly recommended. We recently returned from living overseas which made our situation particularly complicated. Steve was really informative and helped us quickly secure both BTL and residential mortgages. Thanks Steve!
C. O.
Tom Collier and team have been amazing throughout the whole process of buying our first home. They made sure we got the best deal and would definitely recommend to friends and family.
A. L. G.
After finding myself (a mature borrower) in a mortgage prisoner situation, having explored extensively and ridden a roller coaster ride of the mortgage market for nearly a year, I found Advantage on a Google search and got in touch. I was despairing by this stage and getting my head around having to sell my lovely home that I had worked so hard to buy and keep as a single mum 16 years ago, and with no hope of buying anywhere else or even renting in the area I live in. I was contacted by Rudo Hewitt who quickly and efficiently found the ideal re-mortgage product and at a very good rate compared with previous blind alleys. It was a nail biting process which seemed to take forever but which was in fact pretty quick by normal standards. This was incredible enough, but what made this experience stand out even more was the amazing customer service Rudo provided - always professional but combined with being an extremely kind and patient human being. Rudo went above and beyond in not only processing the application but in hand holding and really listening. Thank you Advantage and Rudo for saving my home -forever grateful!
V.
We can’t thank Advantage FS enough, especially our advisor Eliana,
She was absolutely brilliant. Our case wasn’t the easiest one: one applicant with adverse credit, second is foreign, but we have received our offer in no time.
Thank you
S. D.
Thanks so much to Rudo for helping us secure a buy to let mortgage for our limited company. He kept us informed all the way through and explained everything very clearly. I highly recommend Rudo and AdvantageFS.
D. I.
It has been a pleasure to have used this company for a second time, and dealing with Ryan Harvey has been outstanding. He has been prompt in dealing with any queries and questions and very professional. I would highly recommend this company.
C. E.
The advice we received from Steve was second to none - we have been able to quickly remortgage to a very good rate, better than we could find ourselves trawling all the comparison sites and despite the current market. All lined up ready to go when current fixed term ends (Interest Only/Tracker). Many thanks
D. R.
In these difficult times Dan Light was a revelation and secured us a great fixed rate before things went crazy. Communication was key and when we had to pull out of a purchase Dan didnt charge us until we completed on the property we have now. 5/5
J. H.
Really personal service from everyone I've spoken to at Advantage. They treat you like a real person; even discussing things like holidays, not solely talking about mortgages!
R. I. H.
We would 100% recommend Sue to anyone - she has been very helpful, friendly and supportive throughout an overwhelming time for us. We are first time sellers and hoped for a first time mortgage for myself. The process was so quick and easy with Sue who made everything clear for us. Even helped with queries and admin tasks whilst on holiday abroad!!
Thank you for the support and making this so easy for us, we are so glad that the mortgage has been accepted! Will definitely be recommending to everyone
Jess and Shane
J. S.
Huge thank you to Dan Light at Advantage FS. He has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. As first time buyers, we were excited but also anxious about starting our journey onto the property ladder. Dan removed this anxiety by providing an excellent service. He is efficient, always available and great at problem solving to get us the mortgage that was best for us. I would highly recommend Dan and be confident that you would receive a first class service. We can't thank him enough for making our dreams of buying our first house a reality.
R. H.
I would not hesitate to recommend Advantage Financial solutions. Right from the very first conversation with Steve (Morris) it was clear that he had a real understanding of what my requirement was. He gave me knowledgeable and realistic advice and I felt that throughout the application process he and James (Thomas Howard) were working hard to achieve a deal for us. We can now move to the house of dreams completely within budget! My thanks to Steve and his team for their efficient, professional and personable service- top draw!
a. M.
I have just received our re-mortgage offer thanks to the amazing services of Susannah Truslove from Advantage FS. Given my age, this was not an easy process. I cannot thank Sue enough , as she was efficient and rigorous, positive but realistic from beginning to end. She explained everything clearly and was ready to help or give further guidance at any time. I would have no hesitation recommending Sue to anyone seeking a mortgage of any kind. I am so happy that my friends recommended Sue to me.
J. K.
Outstanding service! We've had such a great experience with Ryan. Excellent communication, efficient process, and overall a very pleasant, seamless journey towards securing our mortgage, which exceeded our expectations. We've worked with other mortgage brokers in the past and often felt like just another number in the system... Ryan was the absolute opposite, and we really appreciated the bespoke service received, tailored to our needs and to our situation. We would not hesitate to recommend Ryan and the Advantage FS team, and we will definitely use them again. Thanks heaps!
T. B.
Having previously worked alongside Tom Collier and the Advantage team at Which? I had no hesitation in using their services when purchasing a new home having witnessed first hand their level of knowledge and expertise, as well as knowing they would have transferred the customer values drummed into them whilst working at Which? who are renowned for being a true consumer champion. And it’s safe to say I wasn’t disappointed. Tom guided me through a very smooth purchase carefully outlining all of the options available to me and was always readily on hand throughout the mortgage journey to answer any of my needy first time buyer questions, as well as providing me with prompt updates whenever required and I always felt like my interests were at the forefront of his advise.
A truly first class service from an extremely helpful, customer focused and proficient team. HIGHLY recommended.

Absolutely brilliant service from Tom Collier and Chantelle from start to finish. They made our first re-mortgage so easy to understand and it was all done and dusted within a few weeks. Any questions we had, they replied quickly and answered in full.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Advantage FS to any of our friends and family.
What a refreshing company, where the customer, not the fee comes first!
Well done guys, keep up the good work.

Recently bought a house with my partner and was helped through this process by Dan Pike from Advantage FS.
I am being honest and serious when I say he was the most helpful and useful person during this whole process.
In comparison to our estate agent and solicitor he was our guiding light. We had SO MANY questions to ask and he was always letting us know he was available to message at any hour of the day and he would always follow up with us the second he had an answer.
TL:DR- The kindest, most helpful, and involved broker/advisor we've ever met.
C. T.
Great professional service from Ryan @Advantage FS. After many delays and complications with my house builder Ryan was always available to discuss options and work through solutions. Knowledgeable regarding products available and the ever changing market. This resulted in the correct mortgage being selected. Will be using again 👍🏻
Great work from James for home insurance, particularly at very short notice. James came straight back to me and the product put in place later that day.
L. S.
Susannah has been absolutely incredible from the start! As first time buyers, we were completely clueless about everything and Sue was just so patient, friendly, clear and supportive no matter what time I messaged/called. Really don’t think we could have done it without her help, she has been so thorough, taking into account all our needs for what we wanted and was super helpful throughout the entire process. I could not recommend her enough! Thank you so so much for your help so far, Sue - you’ve been amazing!
S. B.
Dan has been absolutely fantastic in the process of getting a mortgage right to completion. He has always been available to talk through things whenever I have reached out. Separately Dan has followed up on progress with the solicitor and has made sure I was aware of how the sale was progressing. I highly recommend using these guys and especially if your a first time buyer.
L. H.
We have had the most fantastic service from Advantage over the last 10 months, despite the fact that they’ve had their work cut out with us!
Advantage have helped us from the very beginning of our mortgage journey. I originally set up a call with Steve to discuss whether my partner and I would be able to get mortgage in the first place (1 salary + 1 PhD stipend). He helped us get a decision in principle and then a very quick mortgage offer once we found a property last Summer. Unfortunately that purchase didn’t go through, but the team at Advantage (Steve, Chantelle & James) helped us once we had found a new property. The lender required a damp & timber report for this place and Steve recommended a company for this. That all went through very quickly, but unfortunately that lead to some complications with getting a mortgage offer. However, Steve saved the day! Once we found out that the first lender was not a viable option, we talked to Steve about our options and by the next day he had submitted an application to a new lender. We were accepted overnight and a survey was booked in for the day after that, and we had the mortgage offer 3 days after the application was submitted!!
Throughout the whole process Steve was honest and extremely helpful, and I honestly would recommend Advantage to anyone who may need advice or help with a tricky financial situation!
T. C.
My partner and I have had such a positive experience using Advantage FS as our mortgage broker. They and especially Steve Morris have made the the whole process extremely stress free and easy. Steve kept in contact the whole time and advised every step of the way to ensure that we got exactly what we needed. This made everything quick and painless and we couldn’t be happier.
A. P.
My partner and I are in the process of buying our first house. Steven Morris has been so helpful especially when we don’t have the most straightforward income circumstances. Steven was very welcoming and reassured us that getting a mortgage would be possible, when others turned us away and found us a lender without any hassle. Couldn’t recommend enough!
If you think you might have difficulty getting a mortgage speak to the guys at Advantage!

Ryan Harvey has been an absolute star! After ringing him in a panic about the Bank of England putting their rates up again, he turned our remortgage application around the same day, even finding us way better rates than we'd been able to find ourselves. He dealt with the lender ringing them to explain our situation and getting our mortgage offer issued within a few days. He's taken all the stress from us and nothing was too much trouble, he even recommended solicitors as we didn't have time to arrange that ourselves. We honestly cannot thank you enough!

If you want a Top Notch friendly professional Mortgage Broker who delivers what they promise, then no need to go elsewhere, just come here to Advantage FS. I've had the pleasure in dealing directly with Steve and he's been absolute fantastic, he signposts everything and really does take the time to understand your situation and needs, then most important gives you results! I've had promises from the Estate agent that keeping it all in-house for the mortgage is better and faster, nope sorry Steve and his team were miles faster and kept me informed during the whole process and with such a speedy turnaround time for the mortgage offer as well. I will use Advantage FS again in years to come, and will definitely be recommending them to all family, friends and colleagues!

We have used Dan Pike at Advantage for mortgage advice before. He is so helpful and knows the market really well. He gave very clear, but detailed, advice very recently for a remortgage. Which we have now taken and we’re just finalising this now. It’s been very easy.
It’s a great relief to know that Dan really does care about the advice he gives and it’s totally tailored to our family’s needs and circumstances.
We will definitely use Dan Pike and Advantage again.

We have recently worked with Olivia Harris at Advantage FS to secure our mortgage offer on a new home. Olivia has been very professional and helpful throughout the entire process, she was extremely fast in submitting our application whilst keeping us updated every step of the way.
Olivia came back to us with any queries or questions quickly enabling us to answer these and provide needed documentation asap so as not to delay the process.
We have been in contact with Olivia for 6 months for two different DIP's as we kept loosing out on properties. Olivia was quick to sort these so we felt we could submit all offers on homes confidently.
I would highly recommend using Olivia for your mortgage needs (we have used her twice now) she has found us a great deal both time and we are really happy with the service received!
J. M.
I received a first class, highly professional, swift and efficient service. From the very first contact with Tom and his team I was informed, guided and kept up to date every step of the way in the process of a re-mortgage. The team were always on hand to answer any questions and soon put me at ease about any worries or anxieties I may have had, as I hadn't been through this process for many years. A huge thank you to Tom and Chantelle. I will be most definitely recommending Advantage FS to my friends and family. Highly recommendable!
E.
Fantastic service.
Very difficult task but achieved.
Our requirements were far from straight forward and with some previous experience of the mortgage market I was very doubtful that our needs could be met. But Ellie did it!!! And with a very patient and cheerful manner along the way. I would strongly recommend using Ellie/Advantage FS. Thank you for a great outcome.
R. P.
Advantage have been brilliant, particularly Tom Collier who went to a huge amount of effort to help me and my partner get a mortgage. Even though we were a difficult case with a lot of issues he was always helpful, gave us lots of time, and ultimately helped us get our first property. We are very grateful, and would absolutely use them again!
J. J.
I can't thank James at Advantage FS enough! From the very first moment I spoke to him on the phone, I knew he would be the perfect person to help us in the hunt for a mortgage. He was kind, relatable, incredibly knowledgable and it was immediately apparent that he wanted to get the very best results for us. Buying your first home can be daunting, it's an absolute mind-field and James explained everything in a way that I was always able to understand and digest without feeling overwhelmed. Our mortgage case was a little more complex and James delivered above and beyond, the service was quick, efficient and communication was fantastic and WE GOT THE MORTGAGE! I would highly recommend James, his service is first class!
N. M.
We started a search for a retirement stepping stone / holiday let investment back in April, and Dan Pike at Advantage was the first port of call to find the best mortgage for what we needed (which wasn't immediately apparent). He has been with us ever since, through a property falling through midway and us finding a suitable new one, each time affecting the mortgage product we required. Dan even managed to get us a better offer midway through the process as mortgage rates had continued to fall over the whole period. Dan has been responsive and informative throughout and we wouldn't hesitate to secure his services in the future as and when required. Thanks a lot Dan!
M. S. V.
We highly recommend Susannah Truslove from Advantage FS , She has been fantastic in helping us to get the best mortgage offer. As a first time buyers we were very stressed about the process however Susannah has made the process smooth , clear and easy . Susannah is always helpful and available to answer any issue or advice we need. Thank you very much for all your help.
L. M.
For anyone interested in purchasing a home, the team at Advantage FS are fantastic. Tom was calm, confident and incredibly competent - we couldn't have felt in safer hands. Everything ran smoothly, communication was excellent, and Tom took personal care to explain each stage so that we understood everything that was happening. We received our offer quickly and without headache, in part as Tom and Chantelle anticipated what would be asked of us and were always a step ahead of the process. There's also the fact that they are genuinely nice people, which came through thoughout our interactions with them. Absolutely worth it and we would use or recommend Advantage FS again and again.
R. D.
We had the very good fortune of being allocated with Ryan a few years back when he worked for another organisation and we’ve gone back to him every time we’ve needed financial assistance. We’re extremely happy with the efforts clearly taken to provide good customer service and a solution has always been found (and we’ve had some tricky situations!). Ryan also on this occasion got involved when he was on annual leave as things went a bit pear-shaped so it really demonstrated his dedication. We also dealt with some of the other staff at Advantage and they were all really helpful and have a professional attitude. Thanks very much, a great team and we will definitely be returning customers! Mark and Becky
V. K.
Flawless service, professional and friendly attitude. We had the easiest mortgage application experience ever with Advantage FS. Tom and his team were able to provide us with their expertise, advise and guide us for the quickest and most painless results. We are hoping to be in our new property in January and forever grateful for all the help and support Advantage FS offered us. Highly recommend!

When I was looking for my mortgage broker/advisor I found Advantage Financial Solutions on Google search. I do not need to tell you how hesitant I was to speak to someone that I have just found on google. Nonetheless, the reason why I have commenced this search was because I needed personalised and specifically tailored approach for people whose income is through their limited company. I was so lucky that my first point of contact was with Mr Steven Morris who is a Director of Advantage FS. His professional approach was incredible, straight to the point, transparent and friendly. Although I thought I was well prepared for the application process I have encountered unforeseen problems that needed extra professional help from external Charted Accountant. When I went through the moment of despair thinking that I will not be offered mortgage Steven always had a next option plan in his sleeve. He would try every possible avenue to fix a problem and he would do it fast. As I work unsocial hours most of our conversation would happen through the email. Nevertheless, when discussion needed to take place he would go extra mile to speak to me out of office hours. Steven worked so so hard and as a result of that he found me a mortgage through very good provider with good rates. I am so grateful to him and his team. Undoubtedly, this would not be achieved without Steven’s dedication, enthusiasm to solve the problem, fast communication and most of all down to earth personality. I will be definitely recommending his services to my family, friends and colleagues. Thank you very much again.
G. S.
As first time buyers we didn't know where to start! We contacted Michael Caines at Advantage FS, the support and communication he offered was amazing throughout, he really took the stress away. I recently changed jobs, only 1 month ago, and was worried it would be an issue, but Michael had us a mortgage secured in 2 days with an excellent interest rate. Michael explained everything clearly and made sure we understood all the processes throughout, keeping us up to date regularly. We strongly recommend Michael and Advantage FS to anyone looking for an excellent mortgage as well as an adviser.
S. C.
I'm a first time buyer and I was shopping around on my own for a while to try and find the best mortgage for me. After contacting Advantage FS, this made the process so much easier and quicker. They were very fast with their responses and explained any information I needed in great detail. They were also willing to answer any questions I had regarding the whole purchasing process. I am very fortunate that they found a cashback mortgage (which they worked hard to find), so once the purchase is complete, their services are essentially free!
I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to mortgage or remortgage. If I obtain another mortgage in the future, I will be using them!
J. F.
The biggest thankyou to Daniel Light for finding myself and my partner the perfect mortgage offer.
Daniel has been extremely patient with us over the past two years, he managed to get us a mortgage whilst still living in Australia when no one else could. He arranged calls late at night UK time, to accommodate the time difference in Australia and we could not be more grateful. He answered our million questions over the last two years, and never lost interest in us even after several failed properties.
We have recommended Advantage FS to friends and family and will most definitely be using Advantage FS in the future, and will continue to recommend.
We genuinely cannot thankyou Daniel Light enough.
THANKYOU!
D. C.
Outstanding service! We are so grateful for Ryan's fantastic service and persistence in helping us find the right mortgage. The effort he put in was above and beyond, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. We will definitely be using him again as soon as we need to remortgage one of our properties. Thank you so much Ryan- we would not have our lovely new house without your hard work!!
M. P.
We dealt with Ellie and she was so professional and accommodating. Absolutely everything we asked the best advise was given. Ellie worked out throughly what was the best product, best rate and best company to go with to meet all our needs. All the way through our experience she had our best interest at all times. We were also kept informed of any new products arriving and even made contact with us out of the norm hours. We both felt very comfortable with Ellie as she made you feel at ease at all times. Thank you so much. We would fully recommend Ellie Advantage FS Mortgages.
D. R.
Wanted to say special thanks to Tom Collier and his team at Advantage Financial Solutions for their help in finding and setting up our mortgage. Due to the value of the property we wished to move to, I required a joint mortgage with my Partner included. We wanted a 19 year term, but my bank were unwilling to lend due to my partner's age (60 years old). Pleased to say that Tom was able to find us a lender and product which precisely fitted our requirements, and at an amazing rate too!
Fantastic service all round and Tom and his team are prompt and always ready to answer any and all questions. Without doubt will use Advantage FS again in the future and more than happy to recommend to friends and family.
D. L.
Amazing experience from Steve and his team, they really went above and beyond to help us secure what had become to feel like the impossible.
Communication was seamless through the process and they were always on the end of an email or phone whenever you needed them. Highly recommend to anyone but especially if you have a tricky situation.
G. S.
Tom and James have been outstanding whilst finding me a suitable and affordable mortgage for me as a first time buyer. Tom spoke me through all of my options and after putting in an offer on my soon to be home, it was only a matter of weeks before I received my official mortgage offer. I could not recommend Advantage FS enough and will be using them for all future moves and services.
m. h.
Im not one for making reviews, but needed to make an exception. I had a great experience with Advantage FS from the start (thanks James Belfield). Communication was great all the way, answered all questions I had. I was a little concerned as I had a poor experience just before with another broker/lender and assumed my circumstanes were challenging but since switching to Advantage FS everything moved quickly (1 WEEK for Mortage to be accpeted) without any issues. Would recommend any day and will continue with services in future. Was a breath of fresh air. Thanks James.
L. L.
I have to extend my heartfelt thanks to Dan and the Advantage team for securing my mortgage. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly Dan was able to get me a few offers and turn things around once I had settled on a property. I actually was not going to start looking but he encouraged me and I ended up getting an unbelievable place. Super responsive, professional and expedient. I couldn’t be more happy with the outcome.
J. G.
My wife, Diane, and myself want to thank Michael Caines from Advantage Financial Solutions for his diligence and professional approach to successfully securing a mortgage for us. We had unusual mortgage requirements and Michael reassured us that we would secure a good mortgage. We have happily achieved that and we are pleased with the offer.
After filling in more forms than we had imagined, and a countless amount of personal details, we were becoming very frustrated. However, Michael’s approach was very professional and understanding, he contacted us regularly to keep us updated and this was very much appreciated by us.
We would highly recommend Advantage Financial Solutions to anyone seeking a mortgage, and especially to anyone requiring a personal touch. Thank you sincerely, James and Diane Grieves
M. M.
My partner and I used Advantage FS to help secure a mortgage in Bristol. We are both first-time buyers and Tom made the process very clear and straightforward for us, including resolving any quirks around my partner's self-employed status and my non-UK citizenship. He was friendly, swift and responsive throughout, and we couldn't fault his service! Highly recommend!
R. H.
Ryan Harvey was brilliant from start to finish once again, he is very professional and efficient in what he does! This is the second time I’ve used him now and I won’t be going else where next time.
Highly recommend.
A. C.
I am absolutely delighted with the service that I received with this company and would highly recommend them to anyone needing to get a mortgage. They supported me to successfully get an expat mortgage and kept me regularly updated, giving sound, professional advice at every step of the way. A huge thanks to Steve and James for all of their support and effort!
M. D.
Ellie has been absolutely superb. She’s always available and no question is left unanswered. We would recommend Ellie to any of our friends. We’re very happy with the service provided!
D. O.
Phenomenal service and attention to detail. Ryan proactively sought the best mortgage for our somewhat complicated situation while keeping constant communications to keep us in the loop. Can not recommend enough, well done!
A. J.
Michael has been so helpful, we didn't know where to start with our mortgage application. We spoke to a couple of providers, it took an hour each time and we didn't have anything to compare to. We just seemed to be wasting time and energy.
We were referred to Advantage and we are very grateful that we were. We had 1 one hour appointment with Michael and he went away and came back with some great options for us to pick from. We had the decision in principle back within days and the full offer a week or so later.
We were so happy with the service that we decided to renew our buy to let with Michael as well.
We have found the whole house selling/buying process so frustrating, everything just takes so long but the mortgage offer through Advantage was so easy and we know we have a great offer.
Thanks all, very much appreciated!
T. D.
Ryan goes above and beyond in every way. He supported us through every step of the process and held our hands the whole way through. Couldn't have been better looked after. Thanks so much for all your help Ryan and helping us to get our dream home.
B. F.
Tom C was in charge of my mortgage. He was professional and did a great job. I would highly recommend him. Many thanks Tom.
L. O.
Very happy! Mike kept me up to date throughout the whole process and helped secure a complicated mortgage on a new build flat.
A. B.
I can't speak highly enough of Tom and James at Advantage FS. From the initial consultation, to receiving our mortgage offer Advantage FS worked hard on our behalf and kept us informed throughout. They went above and beyond and were there every step of the way. We can’t thank them enough for getting us get a very complicated mortgage and being very patient with us. Having used Advantage FS now, I wouldn't go anywhere else. A great company. Highly recommended.
M. Y.
It's been a pleasure working with Dan and his team in helping us get our mortgage for our first home! They're super responsive to any queries and have definitely gone above and beyond to answer the many questions we had as first time buyers. Would recommend Advantage FS to anyone looking for a mortgage advisor.
M. L.
I'm very satisfied with the service provided by Ryan Harvey. Everything was broken down and explained to me in a way that was straightforward and easy to understand. Being that this was my first time applying for a mortgage I was guided through the process with great clarity and had peace of mind that my application was in the right hands.
Overall a very helpful and professional service. I would definitely recommend.
H. L.
Sue helped me with my first mortgage in 2016 as a self-employed first time buyer, and she's recently helped me to remortgage and buy my ex-partner out with my husband AND my Father as a guarantor after the pandemic complicated our finances...
Sue is amazing. She's so knowledgable about unusual circumstances, and very happy to go away and find the answers to any questions she doesn't know off the top of her head (rare!).
What was an emotionally stressful purchase in an incredibly difficult year for my family was made simple, understandable and affordable.
Sue, until next time (soon, probably!), THANK YOU.
A. J.
Advantage helped me secure a remortgage of my property. Olivia Harris was absolutely excellent: friendly, efficient, understood my requirements and helped to get an unusual and tricky scenario pushed through as smoothly as it could possibly go. I cannot rate Olivia more highly and would thoroughly recommend her and the company.
R. B.
I can highly recommend Advantage FS for their mortgage brokerage services. I had the pleasure of Ellie's help in getting the right mortgage as a self-employed applicant. Couldn't have asked for more, excellent communication and great final outcome. Thank you!
S. G.
The whole process of getting our mortgage for our first house was completely seamless thanks to Ryan Harvey. Any questions we had were answered immediately and Ryan was incredibly knowledgeable. A process which is supposed to be very stressful was made very easy for us and we would 100% use Advantage FS and more specifically Ryan again.
B. B.
We were so relieved to discover Advantage FS, after liaising with a few mortgage brokers we were left feeling both daunted and deflated with our seemingly very limited options. We then spoke with Tom at Advantage, who's extensive knowledge in very specialist areas gave us the path to finding the best mortgage options for us.
Tom's patience and understanding when discussing various plans we had this entire process has been excellent, applying his knowledge to different options we raised with him and leading us to success.
We will forever be grateful for the service we've received from Tom and James. Having had our specialist mortgage requirements declined by other brokers, Advantage FS have made our dreams possible!
We highly recommend Advantage FS to anyone seeking advice with their mortgage.
J. C.
I can't thank Michael Caines at Advantage FS enough.
I'm a self-employed dentist and it quickly became apparent that getting a mortgage to buy my first home was going to be nearly impossible
(I didn't have any tax returns as I'd only been working for 6 months). Most banks wouldn't even consider looking at my finances until I had at least 1-2 years of tax returns. I had found my perfect first home, but faced losing it to other bidders.
After a few phone calls and emails, Michael, using his contacts and wealth of experience, was able to find me a fantastic mortgage offer.
Today, I have just accepted this offer and will hopefully soon be a homeowner.
Michael was able to liaise directly with the bank, explaining my situation and drafting a good deal that suited both parties.
This is something that you just can't do without a broker, especially when you have complicated finances (my salary often fluctuates month-by-month, which would usually worry most lenders).
I don't usually write reviews, but I can honestly say that Michael and the team at Advantage have gone above and beyond.
I will certainly be using Advantage in the future.
A special thank you to Michael for all his hard work.

Dan Pike proved to be a really professional & knowledgeable mortgage advisor and was helpful from start to finish.
As first time buyers we had no idea where to start but Dan guided us through the whole process, took time to explain all of our options and took all the stress away.
We received our mortgage offer within a week and we were pleased that we ended up with an amazing rate with a great lender.
I couldn’t recommend Dan enough, the service we received was faultless!
A. O.
100% recommend. My husband and I cannot thank Advantage enough for helping us get our mortgage. Due to me owning my own business the application process what not as simple as it previously has been. Tom was very responsive and helpful and instantly gave use multiple viable options. He took us through every step of the process without delay. I would most definitely recommend Advantage and we will be coming back to them when we look to remortgage. Thank you.
V. S.
Working with Sue Truslove was a seamless and exemplary experience; it is difficult to stress how strongly we recommend her services. Throughout the process, Sue proved highly professional and extremely helpful given our circumstances (first-time buyers with PhD stipend income), offering guidance whenever it was required. Ultimately, due to Sue's efficiency and industry knowledge, we secured a very good deal with minimal stress. Having been recommended Sue by a friend, we would have no hesitation in doing so to anyone else seeking mortgage advice.
David & Veronika
I. B.
Excellent service from Dan. Kept me updated throughout the process and was extremely patient with my changing requirements. Will use again and would recommend to others.
S. F.
Tom and the team at Advantage FS were fantastic! After previously always finding the mortgage application process complicated and extremely stressful, the team at Advantage made it so straight forward and got us a fantastic mortgage. They explained every step, the pros and cons to different lenders and potential areas of concern with our application, so we always knew what to expect. I would highly recommend Advantage FS to anyone looking for a new mortgage or to remortgage
L. M.
Being newly self-employed, I was always conscious and nervous about obtaining a mortgage. I found their details through a google search and I was not disappointed. They were able to find me a mortgage lender who would accommodate my particular circumstances. Not many brokers would even take the time to listen when I told them my employment situation! Dan Light is a superstar in the industry. I certainly recommend him and his colleague Chantelle Monti.
N. J. W.
Really, really pleased with the level of service from Sue at Advantage FS. Throughout the whole process Sue was extremely communicative and friendly, and talked me through every step. As a first time, solo buyer I had zero idea about mortgages, applying for one and the steps for buying a house in general, and Sue went above and beyond to make sure I understood the process and got the best mortgage deal for my circumstances. Sue even offered to help with house buying queries outside of the mortgage application process, which I very much appreciated. Overall, I am extremely happy with the service provided and would highly recommend Sue and Advantage FS to anyone needing a mortgage broker. Thank you Sue!
H. R.
Could not rate Steven highly enough! We had a particularly difficult set of circumstances, and we weren’t getting very far with our previous advisor. From the very moment he took our case on we felt we would get a positive resolution and he more than delivered on this. He was professional and communicated with us the whole way through the process. He was honest and realistic, and managed to find us a great product. He’s very personable yet professional. He’s made our financial situation so much better.
We can not thank Steven and the team enough.
L. C.
Tom Collier has been brilliant through the mortgage application process. I needed a bit of a niche mortgage as I am on a PhD stipend, and the first broker I approached was unable to find me a lender. Tom found a potential lender within 24 hours of me getting in touch, has always kept me updated and responded promptly to any queries, and I have just had my mortgage approved. I also really appreciate how transparent Tom has been with commission and fees. I rarely leave reviews as often feel pressurised into making them but very happy to leave this one! I've already recommended Tom to a friend and he's been great helping her out too. Thanks!
M. T.
We were delighted with the service and advice from Advantage FS when arranging a capital raising remortgage. Our mortgage adviser Ryan Harvey was able to secure a loan at a great rate and managed our application through to an early completion.
We are happy to recommend Ryan and Advantage FS to anyone looking for a mortgage or remortgage and wanting a very professional service
J. n.
Advantage FS have been fantastic throughout our house move.
Dan was fantastic throughout the process, extremely attentive and always helpful. He would always take the time to email us back even when out of hours.
Our house move was particularly slow, and when our mortgage offer had expired due to the length of time for the move, Dan was more than happy to assist us with having the offer renewed, all this months after they had received our fee.
Very highly recommended from us!
T. D.
Tom Collier and the team were amazing at helping me sort out the correct mortgage. He was very communicative throughout and great at navigating us through the process with minimal fuss. I would recommend Advantage FS to anyone!
v. k.
I can't recommend Advantage FS enough. James was excellent to deal with and given that my application was 'not typical' and I was unsure if I would even be able to get a mortgage it was even more fantastic! From my first enquiry in August I received a full mortgage offer after approx 3 weeks and completed on the purchase of my property in early October. Highly recommend them.
C. B.
My husband and I recently have gone through the process of buying a house and Sue was an absolute godsend. Being first time buyers, she made it so easy and was there to answer every and any question we had. I would highly recommend Sue and Advantage if you're looking for an advisor.
G. P.
Tom offers an excellent, extremely prompt and first class service, he truly is an excellent broker. Towards the end of my house buying process my chain feel through, and thankfully Tom did not even charge me for all the work he has done for us. I could not recommend him more highly
R. B.
Outstanding service and assistance with our mortgage application.
I worked with both Tom and James who were very professional throughout my experience with Advantage.
They were easily accessible and knowledgable on all queries I had and made for a smooth process to the end.
I would highly recommend Advantage to anyone looking for advice with their mortgage needs.
Robbie Benning.
N. H.
From the start of my remortgage enquiry I have received a prompt, efficient and professional service. I really felt that Sue Truslove wanted to do her best for me and to get the best deal available. She led me tirelessly through a quite complex process and her determination and skill led to a great outcome for me and my wife. It’s fair to say Sue went the extra mile and her experience and knowledge saw us through to the end. Big thanks to Due and to Advantage Finance.
N. B.
My remortgage was dealt with by Steven Morris. He was very helpful, efficient and professional.He was able to get me a mortgage offer in less than five days.Excellent service.Will contact him again on any matter related to mortgages and recommend him to anyone who may need mortgage services.
E. L.
I honestly think that you cannot find a mortgage broker better then these guys. Steve was absolutely amazing, he replies to all enquiries immediately and was super efficient. We came across a problem during the buying process and needed a mortgage desperately. He really did go above and beyond to get us the mortgage. He did his magic and managed to get us a mortgage which we thought was not possible. We are very thankful to have met him. Thank you for making our dreams come true. Will recommend them again and again
M. B.
We didn't think it likely that we could get mortgage at our stage of life, but James Belfield and Advantage Financial Solutions proved us wrong. From the get-go, James has been patient, careful in explaining the steps we needed to go through, helping us understand our options and babysitting us through the application process, despite a number of hiccups from our end. in the end, not only did we get a mortgage, we got a great deal that was better than what we had hoped. We could not have done it without you. Thanks.
N.
This is a genuine heartfelt review as we just got our mortgage offer after being declined a couple of months ago with a different advisor. Being self employed at the peak of a pandemic, our case has been quite tricky but our advisor Eliana never made us feel like that. She has always been quite responsive which is one of the most important things for us as a first time buyer. Words are not enough to thank the team in Advantage and especially Eliana. I would definitely recommend anybody in this process to work with them without any hesitation.
R. B.
Cannot stress how good the service was in obtaining our mortgage. Tom Collier found us the best mortgage and also supported with what was a very long chain which throw up various issues. He went above and beyond to help, all done in a very professional and timely manner. Always very easy to get hold of both on the phone and by email and responded instantly in every case. I simply would not use anyone else if I need to arrange a new mortgage going forward. A 6 star service all-round
L. G.
I dont even know where to being to thank Susannah for getting my mortgage accepted. Being a single Mum and self-employed I knew this would be a bit concerning for me. Susannah was there to guide me through step by step and was so compassionate and patient. This is one of the biggest things I've done me in my life couldn't of done it without her guidance and support.
J. G.
We have have an exemplary experience with Advantage Financial Solutions. Michael Caines came highly recommended to us and we couldn’t have been more impressed. Mike has gone above and beyond to help guide us through our first house purchase. We have felt genuinely supported as he made taking this step as easy as possible during a housing boom. Mike has been extremely efficient and personable throughout and without his positivity we probably wouldn’t have continued with our search. This is a small firm that we have happily recommended to everyone who has asked and will continue to do so. Thank you for all your hard work and support. Freya and Jim.
P. D.
We cannot thank Steve and the team at Advantage FS enough for their outstanding service. From our first conversation we knew we were in very good hands and over a very short period we were able to complete all of the necessary paperwork and actually have a firm mortgage offer in place.
For us the real stand out qualities were the communications which were prompt and helpful - no holding replies with this team, just a constant push to achieve what we were after and always happy going that extra mile to make it happen. This coupled with their attention to detail and deep professional understanding of their subject proved that Advantage FS really are a company you can trust.
I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone especially if you after a mortgage on a property which is potentially a little more quirky than your average new build.
Thank you again.
Paul & Jan
A. L.
Tom has been really helpful right from the start. Our mortgage requirements were more complicated than we could have imagined. Tom managed to secure a mortgage having spent time understanding our particular needs. He remained helpful and quick to reply throughout the whole process. We are delighted with the service we received from Advantage FS and don't hesitate in recommending them.
z. S.
Came upon Tom & his team by chance after being told by a Mortgage Broker it wasn’t going to be possible to borrow enough to get a mortgage without a HUGE deposit & extortionate monthly repayments.
My partner & I are both in our 50’s, & were nearly ready to just accept we would be renting forever, until Tom came along!
Can’t thank you enough for helping us secure a mortgage, enabling us to get back on the property ladder after a good few years of being off it.
Tom & James have kept us in the loop every step of the way. Tom remained positive throughout, giving us the confidence to believe our goal was achievable.
We will definitely be coming back to this team when the time comes to look at a different mortgage.
Genuinely cannot rate their service high enough, & will recommend to anyone we know who is considering getting a mortgage, to contact Advantage Financial Services.
Thanks again Tom.
N. K.
Excellent service from Steve from Advantage FS. Steve took the time go through everything with me (as a first time buyer I needed lot of advice) and always replied to my queries immediately. The mortgage application went smoothly and was agreed very quickly. Definitely a top service! Thanks Advantage FS
A. F.
I was recommended Advantage FS by a friend and I cannot recommend them (especially Tom Collier) highly enough. As a first time buyer, I was a bit confused about the whole process, but Tom is very knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything to me thoroughly and go through the pros and cons of each option. The service, transparency, and communication were all excellent and Tom is highly responsive. He went above and beyond also explained and gave advice for other aspects of buying a house as well as recommended contacts such as solictors that I have been happy with.
I will definitely continue to use Advantage FS in the future.
p.
I needed to re-mortgage to raise funds for a business venture.
Michael of Advantage FS was outstanding. Not only did he fully understand the market and who to talk to but he was prompt in responding to concerns and considerate in realizing that re-mortgaging is a confusing time for most people. Yes you pay them a fee when an offer has been made, but I consider this to be of great value.
I had direct dealings with Santander, existing provider, and barclays, main bank of 30 years, and both were terrible to deal with. Much better to deal with a pro who is batting for you.
Advantage FS, and in particular Michael Caines, come very very highly recommended from me.
J. A.
Amazing Service!! Me and my partner cannot recommend Steve and his team enough, they went absolutely above and beyond for us after we discovered some credit issues and had been mis-advised when applying for a mortgage with are original broker. We are due to complete on an amazing first home next and without the Advantage FS team this really wouldn't of happened. Don't give up without giving them a try!
S. T.
Wow! What can I say about Susannah Truslove and Advantage FS apart from they have been amazing.
My broker Susannah was incredible, right from day one until the day of my completion.
No words can express my gratitude.. As an expat purchasing my first buy to let property. Susannah was very professional and put my mind at ease. Susannah dealt with my lender and assisted my legal team. In honesty Susannah went above and beyond to ensure EVERYTHING was handled.
Thank you so much and I look forward to working with you again in the future.
A. H.
I cannot thank Tom at Advantage FS enough. He was so knowledgeable on the different products, processes and lenders and really helped me come to a decision on which direction was best for my current and future circumstances.
Thank you for putting up with my millions of questions! Id highly recommended Advantage FS and will definitely be using them moving forwards.
A. C.
I highly recommend Olivia Harris. After we saw our ideal house come on the market Olivia quickly reviewed our situation and confirmed she could find suitable products for us, at excellent rates, enabling us to bid. I was impressed with the way she took ownership of the whole process and kept up the pressure on the bank when we ran into some delays processing the application. I’d definitely use her again.
H. H.
Tom was really helpful and professional in trying to secure a mortgage for my partner and I. We have faced some difficulties with another broker because of my EU based earnings and a lender just withdrew an offer they made for us halfway through my application.
Managed to find Advantage FS after spending some time in research and have not looked back since then. Got my mortgage offer yesterday and on my way to finally own a new home.
Tom worked hard and was even responding to my emails late in the evening and on weekends to keep me updated. First class service and if you’re looking for a proper mortgage advisor, then look no further. Recommended with a 100 percent confidence.
J. F.
Dan Pike was first class in helping me secure a mortgage offer. He was responsive and efficient, always giving me outstanding financial and practical advice throughout the whole process. He was able to guide me on the best products for my particular needs. I was particularly impressed by how quickly he responded to my queries, even on weekends! Dan comes highly recommended!
I. P.
I wish there were more stars to give! We were referred to Advantage FS by a family member who has had a brilliant experience with them, and we were not disappointed. Ryan, who looked after our matter, is an absolute superstar - from incredibly thorough and informative market research and options tailored to our needs and budget, to super fast and responsive liasing with other professionals and parties involved, we were in good hands from the get go. In addition to knowing the business inside and out, he was also friendly and empathetic, and we felt secure in knowing our best interests were looked after and represented. Moreover, there is absolute clarity around the one-time fee and the generous amount of services included, with no add-ons or pressured upsells. Couldn't recommend Advantage (and Ryan especially) warmly enough!
R. N.
I can not commend Tom C and the entire team enough, Tom was invaluable in getting my wife and I the right mortgage when we were starting to lose hope. We did not have the most straightforward case to work with but knowledge of the market and the expertise from Tom gave us absolute confidence in finding the right lender and obtaining a mortgage offer.
Communication was excellent throughout even beyond 'normal' working hours, Tom put together the application pack and supporting docs with minimum questions back from the lender which is a testament to how well the pack was put together. Tom's perseverance and relationship with the lender allowed us to obtain the desired product within our specified timescale.
I have no hesitation using Advantage FS again as a mortgage broker in the future and highly recommend their services. In what can be a stressful time, the team and Tom in particular gave us one less thing to worry about.
G. B.
First time using AdvantageFS for our recent mortgage, great service from start to finish despite giving them an unusual remit and set of circumstances to deal with. Highly recommend our account manager Steven Morris who was also admirably supported by his paraplanner James Thomas-Howard. Would definitely use Advantage FS again.
c. h.
Dan and the team at Advantage FS provided me a professional and friendly service. Dan took time in explaining in clear terms the best deal for me which left me feeling comfortable throughout the process. The team at Advantage FS were always available to offer help / advise in a friendly manner.
Advantage FS really impressed when they supported me with every step of my mortgage process and even the documentation.
I would defiantly recommend and will be sure to use again in the future.
Thanks again Advantage FS
F. w.
I got referred to Dan from Advantage FS by my father. Dan was really professional and worked hard throughout to get me a great mortgage deal (and my circumstances were tricky compared to the average person). Dan was very personable and always responded immediately to my emails and kept me updated throughout the entire process. At no point did I ever feel I had to chase anything. Dan explained everything really well and overall I would say the service was excellent and well worth the very reasonable fee paid!
J. K.
Brilliant quick service, very easy to work with. Went the extra mile working until 8pm to make sure we got the morgage fixed before price last minute increases. Thanks Tom & Dan
A. J.
I dealt with Dan Pike the mortgage man (rhymes) at Advantage FS. Dan was very good. We had a house at the beginning which our offer got rejected. Dan worked so hard on this and when we found our house which we are in now he worked just as hard to help us with our mortgage. Before I found Dan I went to my bank where we weren’t successful.
I would honestly recommend Dan. He was fab and went above and beyond. The communication was super! Even once we were completed he was on the other end of the phone to answer questions I had about first mortgage
Payments etc. Thank you so much!!! You made the mortgage experience not stressful. 😊
D. M.
First time using Advantage FS and Susannah Truslove picked up our case. Very impressed from the outset by Sue's professionalism and attention to detail. We had clear guidance as to what we needed to provide and were kept informed throughout the process. Delighted to receive our mortgage offer last week and Sue even took the trouble to call us. We will have no hesitation in using Sue and Advantage FS for subsequent applications, hopefully in the near future!
Thank you - David and Kate

When me and my partner decided to make the plunge to buy a house, I had a massive internal panic. Especially when my credit score came back as lower than expected and there were other external credit pressures arising, I was worried I was going to let her down. It was massively deflating and a part of me really wanted to give up on the idea... or at least delay until I can resolve those issues. It wasn't until speaking to Sue from Advantage FS that it all transformed. The love and care that she carried out her work and desire to want to really help, providing such fantastic advice, took the burden off our shoulders and made everything seem possible. She managed all of our questions and panics with such calm and balance, doing all the due diligence to make sure we were in the best position to get our mortgage. From what seemed like an overwhelming task to buy a house, all those pressures were lifted by Sue and the whole process has been breezy since.
I really can't recommend Sue and her team enough. It isn't just the professionalism and knowledge that made the experience so easy, it was the nurture and support, having some one really fight your corner and be invested in our needs.
h. f.
Tom at Advantage FS has offered us an excellent service throughout the mortgage process. He has worked tirelessly for us, approaching our more complicated financial position supportively and optimistically (when others weren't!). There were a number of set backs along the way (due to our own position) and Tom continued with his high standard of support and professionalism, investing considerable extra time and energy in finding new solutions for us. I couldn't recommend the services more highly as their approach has literally transformed our borrowing outcomes.
P.
Never heard of Advantage Fs before and I'm glad I found them online. I used another well known broker service and they are not in the same league as Advantage. Excellent service from Steve, Tom, Dan and Chantelle. Very understanding and efficient from start to finish. Communication was excellent.
I would recommend this mortgage broker to anyone.
A. C.
I contacted Advantage on a recommendation and would not hesitate to recommend them myself to anyone looking for mortgage or insurance advice and guidance.
Dan light has been such a great help to us and the service offered is personal, really friendly and very efficient.
From the initial conversations to sorting a new agreement in principle out super quickly so that our offer could be accepted to our actual mortgage being approved, Dan has been amazing and we are very grateful to him for everything he has done for us.
J. C.
We used Advantage through the first half of 2021 to secure 2 mortgages - a BTL on a new rental property we were purchasing and a remortgage on our highly uncompetitive existing home mortgage (saving is nearly £500pcm!). The service that Dan Light and his colleagues at Advantage provided to us was of a very high calibre.
Their speed of response, understanding of our needs and requirements, quality of products identified and presented, and management and expediting of the lenders was fantastic and greatly appreciated.
I wish we had had Dan and his advice for the previous 8 years of mortgages, which no doubt would have saved us a significant amount of money. We will most certainly return to Dan Light and Advantge Financial Solutions in the future when our current deals end and I would happily endorse their services to anyone looking to (re)mortgage.
C. C.
Tom was recommended by a friend and I found him extremely helpful and knowledgeable about what mortgages might be offered to me on an interest only basis, as a 'retired' person. Apart from one or two minor hitches which were swiftly dealt with, it went through very smoothly and I am thrilled to be able to stay on in my home with an excellent deal. I would highly recommend this firm and Tom in particular.
M. S.
Tom Collier and team who assisted us were absolutely amazing. My husband and I could not have got our dream home without them working extremely hard to get our case complete within the timeline we’d hoped for.
They kept us up to date daily, and reassured us on what to expect moving forward, this was very reassuring and made me feel relaxed and confident. I’ll forever remain with this company, and will not use anyone else.
I have already highly recommended them to our neighbours who also want to move home, and will continue to do so.
Thanks to you all.
A. R.
I couldn't recommend Advantage FS more! I am so glad we found them. As a first time buyer, I had no idea where to even begin. From start to finish Dan Light provided me a professional and friendly service. Dan took the time to explain the process, ensure I understood the terms and got the best deal for us. Even with a slightly complicated application, my questions were always answered.This left me feeling comfortable and confident throughout. A special thank you to Chantelle Monti too, she was amazing and so patient with us while we waited for documentation. In what felt like a very daunting period with loads of uncertainty, they gave us reassurance that all was in their capable hands.
It's been an absolute pleasure working with them!
M. G.
I would highly reccomend this company to anybody, I can't put into words how helpful and professional these guys are. We have been dealing with Steve and his team and they have gone above and beyond to help us get to where we need to be in such a short space of time. We were running out of time to get an offer due to a previous mortgage advisor wasting a month and still drawing a blank so we took the plunge and decided to change and we haven't looked back since. Steve has been truly incredible and took all the stress away from us by managing to secure us an amazing offer within 2 weeks from first contact even with a 9 day wait for a valuation from the mortgage provider. The value for money has been spot on and I couldn't fault a thing during this whole process. We had a tricky case as I've been off on maternity leave/furlough and my husband has recently started a new job so we didn't have the typical 3 month payslips and we would need to use back to work letters and contracts to secure a mortgage but Steve didn't let that stop him and worked tirelessly whilst keeping us in the loop to make sure that he could get us what we needed and within 2 weeks we had the offer. Thankyou to everybody at Advantage FS we will be sure to reccomend you at every opportunity.
A. R.
I have used Advantage FS for a fairly complicated expat, buy to let mortgage. Tom was very attentive and knowledgable, I didn't feel like he was pushing me to go through with any particular deal. So much so I have asked them to look into my life and critical illness insurance and again, I have experienced great service. I would happily recommend them and I will be contacting them in the future regarding remortgaging.
K. B.
A huge thank you to Tom and James for arranging our mortgage. Not only was the whole process quick and straightforward, we were kept well-informed throughout the application. Their experience and knowledge is second to none, and we will go directly to Advantage FS for any future financial needs.
K. p.
Dan thanks a lot for an excellent service. I went mortgage through Dan from Advantage FS , he was polite, friendly and quick to respond, with everything being done electronically and file uploader was next level to make things much easy and transparent. I got my mortgage very quickly. Other person was Chantelle, she helped in making notes, documenting, communicating with 3rd parties on queries and was very supportive throughout the process. Highly recommend their services, as convenient and straightforward.
P. P.
FIRST TIME BUYER- Can not fault the company at all. Michael Caine's was amazing and very patient with us., being first time buyers we literally had no clue what to do and he guided us through the whole process without making us feel belittled. He often went above and beyond for us and made the whole process so much easier. Do not be put off that they are a 'newer' Company, when I've compared my experience to others who have used longer running mortgages advisers, we have by far had the better service. First time buyers dream. Thanks Advantage FS :)
H. D.
Susannah has been absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She's managed to get us a great deal at a time that we really didn't think it would be possible (with COVID and my husband having been out of work for several months etc). Sue took the anxiety out of the entire process and kept us fully informed every step of the way.
It's very obvious that Sue has a real passion for her job (and mortgages) and this really made us feel so confident in the advice and recommendations she gave to us.
Would absolutely recommend Susannah and her colleagues at Advantage FS to anyone looking for a Mortgage Adviser. ⭐
K. W.
I can’t praise Advantage enough for the way they have supported me as a new client. I had a particularly difficult house completion due to issues completely unconnected with Advantage, and Steve, Chantelle and the team went beyond the call of duty in trying to fix the issues caused by my solicitors disconnect with the lender. True customer service and support when I truly needed it. I would highly recommend their services to anyone, and shall do at every opportunity.
A. N.
I don't normally write a review but this is an exception! The service provided by Advantage FS, especially, from the gentleman called Tom C is outstanding. He helped me and my husband with the remortgage of our rental property which went seamlessly considering our complex circumstances. He always kept us in the loop through every steps of the application (even e-mailing us on the weekend!) and found us a really good remortgage deal. We really couldn't thank him enough for his help!
G. H.
Susannah was amazing helped us from start to completion with our mortgage and insurance. Very impressed and answered all questions we had. Easy to contact when we needed her. Made it easy and simply to understand. Supported us with documentation and any difficult questions we had. Would highly recommend and would 100% use her again as great service and customer service. Would use again when we need to renew our product.
O. D.
Tom was very patient in explaining the mortgage process to us and the different options that we had open to us when applying for a mortgage.
The whole process was conducted in an timely manner and it seemed as though we had our mortgage approved in no time.
Tom found us a really competitive mortgage and I would have no hesitation in using Advantage again when our fixed term is up.
m. h.
James at Advantage listened carefully to our complicated mortgage request & found us an excellent deal, saving us lots of time & money. He was brilliant at keeping me up to date, despite the fact that work commitments made me hard to get hold of. I've never used a broker before, doing my own research, but will definitely be using Advantage again in the future.
T.
I started my journey over a year ago when I contacted Sue directly for some advice. I had found her via a facebook group after reading several recommendations. Sue was extremely helpful from my very first conversation. She made me feel at ease and kept me up to date throughout the whole process. I asked many questions as a first time buyer & Sue always responded promptly with answers to all my queries.
I will definitely work with Sue again in the future and have already recommended her to several family and friends looking to start the house buying process.
D. P.
Great and professional work done by Dan Pike in obtaining the best mortgage for our needs. Easy and simple to understand and got the best deals, better than applying yourself individually.
Impressed thanks
Duncan and Rebecca
K. J.
Cannot recommend Steve and the team at Advantage FS enough. As first time buyers, without a huge deposit, with one redundancy and another fixed term contract between us, during a global pandemic - we had really started to think home ownership was out of reach for us. Steve worked his magic and we're now in our new home and couldn't be happier. Steve, James, Tom and the team tolerated our endless questions with patience, humour and empathy - they're all just genuine, lovely chaps. A fantastic company deserving of all the 5* reviews - thank you all so much!
S. C.
Just excellent product knowledge and friendly and helpful staff. They found me the perfect mortgage that even allowed me to increase the term on the existing mortgage from age 75 to 80. This has provided me with exceptional financial flexibility for the future.
M. H.
Tom at Advantage was great help with our mortgage request, we had lots of questions and lots of changes and he was always at the end of an email or phone to discuss them and give us further advise. He kept us up to date of what was the next step and introduced us to the lovely Chantelle who also supported us on our new home journey! Can’t thank you enough for all your help! Mark and Lexie :)
P.
I have received exemplary service from Advantage FS from initial consultation all the way through to receiving my formal mortgage offer. Tom Collier has been fantastic throughout the process and I have not a single negative thing to say of either him or the company.
My initial needs were discussed, all the required documents were requested in one go, with a handy online portal to upload them to. I immediately received an AIP with the rough loan value I was interested in. Once a suitable property had been found and an offer accepted, the application process was very easy and managed entirely by Tom. Having done my own research on conveyancers, I requested advice on the type & any recommendations from Tom who was helpful in discussing the pros and cons of panel conveyancers vs smaller companies etc. and upfront about the referral fee/commission the company receives which I was happy to facilitate as I felt it was a fair reflection of a perfect service. Tom was also helpful in discussing survey options, various mortgage deals, longer term overpayment optimisation, and the best value for money in terms of LTV amounts. I was offered add-ons such as payment insurances/home insurances but at no point was any suggestion forceful or coercive, but rather informative and honest.
The attributes I value most in any company or person I have business with are reliability, respectfulness, efficiency, and availability. It is very difficult for me to make repeated phone calls or emails to follow things up or chase things up and I personally find it a show of incompetence if something has been discussed/agreed and not actioned. Tom thankfully was extremely reliable and always very respectful, I did not have to follow up or chase him for any outstanding actions at any stage, I was always provided with regular updates, and I did not have a single occasion where I called Advantage FS without him being available to take my call. I had all of my documentation ready and in order, I was familiar with all aspects of my finances and relevant requirements for the mortgages, and this readiness and efficiency was equally matched by Tom which is something I do not find often occurs. It was also nice to have a single point of contact throughout the process who was familiar with my requirements and case.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Advantage FS to any prospective clients interested in obtaining a Mortgage and I will most certainly be in touch when I next require their services.
T. W.
Ryan is our go to when it comes to mortgages! I will recommend him to all friends and family!
He had to achieve most of this mortgage application when I was in the Middle East with limited comms, definitely going above and beyond!
Thanks again mate, until next time 👊
o. b.
I can't speak highly enough of Tom and the team at Advantage FS. From initial consultation, to receiving our mortgage offer Advantage FS worked hard on our behalf kept us informed throughout. The online portal is quick and easy to use and the staff are very knowledgable. Having used Advantage FS now, I wouldn't go anywhere else. A great company. Highly recommended.
F. B.
I submitted my details via Money Saving Expert & Dan Pike was the advisor I was booked in with. I had an expectation of him being like these advisors that work in estate agents, pushy and so on BUT I was pleasantly surprised, Dan is lovely, listened, advised and did not push me. I highly recommend him. He made sense and told me information I didnt know that saved me making a solly decision.
S. K.
Amazing service, and always super responsive and helpful! I cannot recommend them enough! Using them the second time and will continue to use for all my needs relating to mortgage and insurance. Awesome and friendly team as well!
A. K.
As first time buyers Sue @ Advantage FS helped us through every step of getting a mortgage and house buying in general. She really went above and beyond to help us navigate a complicated process in our slightly unusual circumstances. I am recommending her to everyone!
J. D. M.
I've got the amazing and very honest assistance of the adviser Dan Pike. He walked me through my remortgage options and shared his invaluable insight about it. Very pleased to have contacted Advantage FS!
T. R.
We used Tom Collier to help us secure a mortgage on a property which was not straightforward at all. Traditional mortgage lenders were too cautious, but Tom didn't give up and explored every possible option on our behalf. He was always responsive and helpful. Without Tom's tenacity, it's safe to say we would not be the proud new owners!
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and we'll absolutely use his services again.
A.
Advantage have helped us with two mortgage products recently. Dan Pike has handled both applications and we have received crystal clear advice throughout and excellent communication from him, getting regular updates. Dan had to go over and above on a recent application and he is always very helpful, patient and professional.
We definitely have the best mortgage products for our needs and have made substantial savings as a result of the advice from Dan.
Advantage's document portal is very quick and easy to use and totally secure, which is really reassuring.
Would highly recommend Dan and Advantage.
T. C.
I can’t recommend Steven highly enough. He was able to help us find a mortgage that worked well for us and in record time giving us professional advice and direction. He explained all our option clearly and in a way we were able to understand, he checked through out to be sure we understood and explained each process. Communication through out was given by Steven, touching base when needed to keep us up to date. We will definitely be returning customers in the future and would be more than happy to recommend to friends and family.
J. V.
We were very fortunate to have met James Belfield at Advantage FS. He was amazing. He secured for us the ideal mortgage and we could not be happier with his work. Will definitely be back next time we need a mortgage and we will refer anyone we know who is looking for a mortgage to him. Thanks so much James!
R. W.
We were really impressed with Dan Light & Advantage FS 5 star customer service! Even with a complex mortgage requirements, Dan took care of everything and we can't thank him enough!
Very responsive to emails which really helped us whilst moving home.
Thanks again
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
S. P.
I cannot recommend Susannah Truslove from Advantage FS enough. I remember feeling so disheartened after speaking to a mortgage advisor from my bank and didn't think getting a mortgage would be possible because of my visa situation. Well, thank goodness I found out about Susannah from several first-time buyers on FB. She is the most patient, empathetic, and reliable professional you will ever meet. Being a first-time buyer is already stressful enough but Susannah has helped me every major step of the way. She really knows her stuff! Happily recommend.
M. H.
Sue (Susanna) has been amazing! Her service has been outstanding with regular and frequent communication. Unlike other brokers who need a reminder, Sue ensures that you are always up to date with the latest information.
If you need or want a mortgage to be completed quickly, while ensuring a thorough and professional service is carried out.
Don't delay get in touch with Sue from Advantage FS asap! Even if it is for the initial chat about options!
L. M.
I am delighted to be able to recommend Advantage. I always had a long term plan of down-sizing my house to pay off the interest only mortgage, however in this time of Covid-19 it wasn't that easy. At the age of 64, I was panicking about how I would manage to keep the house and sort out life insurance that wouldn't break the bank. Steve was incredibly helpful and found me a mortgage and a life insurance policy that suited my situation and that I could easily afford, and now I can look forward to keeping the family home. So a big Thank You to Steve and the team.
L. r.
Excellent service from James Thomas Howard on getting me the correct mortgage for my situation kept constantly updated all through the process. Thank you so much would highly recommend. Also not forgetting Steven Morris who was my first contact with this mortgage service
m. J.
We cannot recommend Susannah enough! She has been amazing through every step of the process and has been there to answer all our questions no matter how silly. We will definitely go back to Sue the next time we need a mortgage and will be recommending her to friends & family.
S. V.
Steve is first class professional...really knows his field in this sector and as an Expat looking to secure a residential property he really helped me in securing a mortgage loan when all major high street lender refused.
He was also very accommodating in my situation and helped me by-pass many things to get my accounts in order. I could not recommend him anything other than 5 stars across the board and I'm sure I'll work with him again in the future. Sunny
K. H.
I have had many many many conversations with Tom over the last two years having jumped from one difficult to finance property to the next.
I'm pretty sure - if I was going to try and buy land on the moon, Tom would at least call some lenders to ask around. Fantastic service!
R. T.
We were advised to use Advantage FS Mortgage broker as they were highly recommended. We were not disappointed in any way. Very professional and offered not only great advice and support, but went that extra mile to ensure that the offers we were given were the best on the market. Very happy with their services and would easily recommend them to any of my friends and family. When I need to re-mortgage my home in the future I will definitely be using this company again 5 out of 5!
E. C.
We will most definitely be recommending Advantage to all our family and friends. The team were very professional, friendly and extremely helpful, even answering my many questions promptly and clearly. Tom in particular is a great credit to the team and we will mostly definitely be using the company for future financial advice. Thank you!
T. L.
As first time buyers, the thought of the mortgage process was stressful and overwhelming!
Sue Truslove helped us along the way and went above and beyond.
She made the entire process so simple and easy!
I can honestly recommend Sue to absolutely everyone!
Above and beyond is an understatement!
Thank you so so much for all your help and what you have done for us!!
D. H.
Having seen the great reviews on a facebook group we decided to get in touch with Susannah at Advantage FS after we were initially turned down for a AiP. We were first time buyers, with a young family and had been saving for a long time - albeit with a little spot of adverse credit - we were feeling very demoralised by the whole situation. Susannah was absolutely amazing and we were immediately impressed by her level of professionalism, expertise and thorough approach. She was able to iron out our difficulties, tailor our situation to the right lender and had us lined up with 2 x agreement in principles in no time, soon followed by a mortgage offer from one of the main lenders. We completed today. Delighted with Advantage FS and forever grateful to Susannah!
J. B.
I was recommended Ryan by my brother. And I couldn't be more impressed with the service. It took just a week to go from first conversation to a mortgage offer!
Ryan was easily contactable, extremely helpful, and walked me through everything clearly, ensuring I understood every step. Thank you Ryan for making this usually complex process seamless!
S. P.
Sue at Advantage is amazing and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services to anyone. After speaking with a couple of other brokers, who couldn’t offer us any options due to the impact of covid on our application, we were pretty downhearted. We found Sue through a recommendation from a colleague and immediately she found us an option that would work for us. Sue is friendly, personable and extremely good at her job. Despite being a little complicated and taking quite some time as our house fell through and we had to find a new one, we’re now in our dream home. Without Sue we aren’t sure this would have happened! She pushed our mortgage provider throughout the whole process and was an absolute superstar!
Thank you so much Sue!
F. S.
Michael Caines at Advantage FS recently helped us to secure a mortgage for our new home and we highly recommend him. Michael is professional, personable and efficient and he's secured us a brilliant deal with our lender. Michael took the time to talk us through any financial jargon or technical details, sometimes after hours to fit in with our busy work schedules. He broke down complexities into simple details and always made sure we were comfortable and informed throughout the process. He also supported us in making sure we had adequate protection in place should the worst happen. They say moving house is the most stressful thing you can do, but Michael made the mortgage element a breeze. Highly recommend.
J. L.
I am so grateful to Steve for the guidance that he provided. Not only did he make it exceptionally easy to have a conversation whilst on opposite sides of the world, the advice that he provided was completely impartial and totally focused around my best interests. Ultimately, this selfless advice meant that I wasn't taking out a new loan. I'm just disappointed that this means Advantage won't be earning anything on this occasion. What better evidence of genuine, impartial advice is that? I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Steve and the team to anyone looking to finance a property.
I. R.
My mortgage and insurance was handled by Susannah and she couldn't have been better. Her communication is excellent, keeping you up to date every step of the way. She also explains everything in plain English and tells you not only what she recommends, but why, giving you the opportunity to ask questions or say "actually that isn't a priority for me, could we try xyz?". I felt confident she was getting the best deal for my individual situation and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or use her services again.
b. c.
As retired pensioners my wife and I did not think that a mortgage was a possibility for us. We had looked at 'Homewise' and also at equity release to raise additional funds to purchase a property closer to our family both these options create a loss in terms of what we would be able to pass on to our family upon our demise. After consultation with Rudo at Advantage we learnt of a product from a Major Building Society designed for people like ourselves. After going through our financial situation we were advised of the amount we could borrow at 'interest only' terms the balance of the amount borrowed only becoming due for repayment upon the demise of both of us. The repayments were very attractive and easily manageable with no change to our lifestyle.
Rudo was brilliant in explaining the whole deal and in guiding us to a successful offer of Mortgage. The process was conducted so professionally and within reasonable time allowing us to find and purchase a property we originally thought out of reach for us.
We have no hesitation in recommending the services of Advantage FS. to anyone and will 'sing their praises' to anyone.
Thanks for all you have done.

I'd happily recommend Advantage FS to everyone I know - absolute top quality service from start to end. Mega thanks to Sue for her expert advice and hard work to secure us the mortgage we needed - it really helped to work with someone who clearly understands the industry so thoroughly as well as being endlessly patient and polite throughout quite a long process. Thank you so much!

As an expat looking for a mortgage, I found other specialists would make a point of bigging up the job and explaining the complexities, and therefore the cost of arranging. Tom at Advantage FS did not do this, the fees were very good and the process was painless, even changes to the property and the amount required, seamless really and always kept informed. Very glad to have chosen them to help me

Dan from Advantage FS was professional, factual, informative and really felt he had our best interests as his priority. His communication skills are excellent and we felt trust in his knowledge and expertise. Would highly recommend.
C. G.
My partner and I had a complicated situation as I am on a Tier 2 (General) visa and Tom C was brave enough to take on the challenge and advised us on the best mortgage for our situation. Tom’s advise and efficiency in the process was amazing, he was always available and on top of everything with regards to follow ups and communicating every step of the way. We really couldn’t have done this without Tom, thank you for the outstanding service!

We recently applied for a Mortgage with Advantage Financial Services and were delighted with the excellent service provided by mortgage broker Eliana Biasutti.
From day one of the process, Ellie could have not been more helpful. She managed our application on an almost daily basis, keeping us informed at every stage of the process and resolving issues with the lender as required which we are sure helped speed up the process to a successful conclusion
We are delighted with the outcome which has allowed us to buy the property we really wanted at an affordable monthly cost.
Thanks again Ellie.

Our experience with our mortgage advisor, Susannah Truslove was simply wonderful. She led us through the rather stressful stages of requesting a mortgage with the utmost professionalism combined with a friendly, very engaging, interpersonal manner. Susannah took care to always respond immediately to any queries and always kept us fully informed of every development. We wish to express our warmest gratitude for everything she has done for us

We can not recommend Ryan Harvey at Advantage Mortgages highly enough!
After contacting him only a fortnight ago with a desperate case due to COVID-19, he has fought and did everything he could to get us over the line and we should complete next week, thanks to him and his passion and drive for his work.
We had lost all faith in owning the house we had found to purchase in February but Ryan quickly restored that faith, keeping us updated at every stage of the process and nothing was too much trouble.
Would highly recommend Advantage to anyone looking to buy a house, thank you Ryan!
L. H.
Fantastic service, highly recommended. Dan at Advantage made the whole process remarkably easy, we have gained an excellent mortgage (best rate possible) with minimum effort required from us. I will most certainly be using this company for all my future mortgage needs. The service literally couldn't have been any better.
N. T. (.
Steven Morris and his team helped me finance my house purchase last year when he was still working at Which? . I’ve had to communicate a lot with his team and also with him directly on many occasions. I can absolutely say he certainly goes above and beyond to ensure customer needs are met and is great not only in managing and motivating his team, but also connecting customers to other contacts needed in the process of purchasing a property. My case wasn’t exactly straight-forward and there were lots of specifics to go through and various lenders to try out but they secured me a great offer! Steven's focus and experience seem to always be to provide a premium service and his and his team insights surpass other advisors in the industry. I’m very happy to see they’ve now started their own company and would happily recommend them!
R. J.
Dan was super helpful from start to finish. He kept us informed throughout the whole process, found us a bespoke deal not available elsewhere and even accommodated calls outside of business hours. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone else.
F. B.
As a first time buyer purchasing by myself, the whole process was very overwhelming. When I first spoke to Tom to discuss my mortgage options, he took me through the whole process step by step and discussed all mortgage options available to me.
Once the application was made, Tom and Chantelle kept me updated with the progress of the application and answered any queries I had along the way.
Great service, very friendly and made the whole process much easier - thank you both!
A. B. A.
We are so grateful to have come across Daniel Light of Advantage FS. We had faced many dead end searches for a suitable mortgage for over 7 months but within one week Daniel made it all so easy and within two months we have an offer against all odds. Daniel and the Advantage team were very professional, showed duty of care and prompt in communication. I highly recommend Advantage FS to everyone.
j. m.
I have used Tom from Advantage FS for Mortgage advice over the last 6 years on numerous occassions whilst purchasing property. Once was as a first time buyer, which can be a daunting experience,. However, Tom talked me through everything I needed to know and understand. Tom has always been thorough, honest and delivered a fantastic quality of service. I have regularly recommended his services during this period of time to colleagues and friends and wouldn't hesitate to continue to do so.
A. C.
The service I received from Eliana and her support team was second to none. She was patient and worked hard to get refinancing in place for a small but complex portfolio of properties.
The fee was excellent value. She spent a long time looking at options and supporting me in providing the required evidential data for the Lenders.
I will use her in the future and would recommend her without reservation.

The team is very responsive and professional, great experience throughout the whole process! Special thanks to Steve and Chantelle, in these very difficult times you have given us constant support and reassurance that everything will be fine and you were absolutely right! 1 day after the survey we were offered the mortgage, the exact same deal that had been discussed before. No hidden costs or changes, straightforward and honest customer service, 5* indeed.
Thank you again, we will definitely recommend you to anyone we know :)
E. T.
Professional service from the beginning. We were having trouble finding a company that would accept us prior to starting a new job. Advantage provided an incredible service and found us a product that was a great deal and right for us.
I cannot thank them enough for helping us to buy our dream house.
Would definitely recommend advantage, especially Dan Light who has been amazing, helpful and reassuring throughout the whole process.
M. B.
I have nothing but praise for Advantage.
Due to the nature of the unusual property we were buying many providers kept qualifying out.
From the getgo, our adviser, Sue Truslove, understood our challenge and very quickly got onto obtaining us a mortgage.
The mortgage obtained was better value than I expected and met our slightly unusual circumstances.
Service has been amazing. Always prompt, accurate and efficient.
I would recommend Advantage to anyone!
A. F.
Excellent service from Dan and the team at Advantage. I've never known a mortgage to go so smoothly.
I was doing staircasing on my property and they had a excellent understanding of what I needed for it to go through. Very knowledgeable about everything on the market and got me the best deal I could ask for.
Would thoroughly recommend
J. B.
Excellent, professional service firstly by Steve Morris for advising, sourcing and arranging our mortgage and by Tom Collier for advising and arranging the life cover.
The level of service is first class.
We've never used a mortgage broker before. We would definitely use Advantage FS again in the future.
They come highly recommended.
G. H.
I would highly recommend using Advantage and specifically Dan. I've used Dan as my mortgage broker for 2 mortgages now and 1 re-mortgage and every time he has been excellent, very responsive, personable and perfectly detailed. I always feel totally at ease every step of the way and that things are being dealt with switly. He even recommended a solicitor to use that also turned out to be great. Couldn't fault it one bit.
M. B.
I would not hesitate in recommending Steve to anyone requiring help with a mortgage. Steve was extremely helpful in explaining the options available to us and is clearly very knowledgeable in his field. Any query I had was quickly responded to and the system Steve uses made sharing the documents required for our mortgage application very easy. A very satisfactory experience from start to finish - thanks very much!
G. H.
Fantastic and professional service from start to finish - special thanks to Steven, Amber and Tom, who have all been brilliant in assisting us with our first home purchase. With the mortgage market in complete turmoil due to COVID, we were desperately running out of options as first time buyers needing a high LTV product. Steven found us a product and stayed up out of hours to key our application in (before the product was pulled the next day!). Throughout the process we have been kept up to date, and any queries which we had were quickly responded to. We are based in the Midlands and have been able to complete everything via phone/email and the Advantage online portal which is great. I would have no hesitation in recommending Advantage FS. Thank you for all of your help!
P. U.
James has been very professional and taken the weight of myself in the often complicated process of changing my mortgage provider. Always contactable for questions and Advantage have a good system to upload / download documents. All of which makes it a pleasurable transaction
L. S.
Excellent service, Steve and Chantelle kept us up to date at all times even with covid restrictions.
Always able to cater and adapt their working pattern around us, which has been a great help especially when you cant take calls during working hours - arranging to speak with us during the evenings and also at the weekend too.
We would highly recommend Steve and even though our case was slightly more complex due to owning our own company, he understood how the market works and was very knowledgeable. Informing us what was needed from our side and even identified an error on our credit file at the very beginning which we resolved shortly after - this was at the beginning of the process when we were only enquiring about a mortgage.
Very informative, Steve understands the complexity of peoples finances along with keeping you up to date even with covid restrictions and kept up to date with the changes to the financial market with mortgages changing for self employed and limited company directors and more straight forward employees too.
We emailed at various times during the evening including the weekend and received a very quick response time with answers to our questions.
This service has been the best I/we have received and we have bought and sold 3 properties before this and we have never had this level of service before. We have been very impressed with all the service, its very hand now a days to find this high level of service with the responsiveness and level of commitment in ensuring we were fully informed, happy with the products and we received a mortgage at a competitive rate based on our individual circumstances being owners of a company.
5/5* rating. If we ever decide to move again, we will not be using anyone else. If you want a professional approach with a quick response and someone who understands the financial market with mortgages and insurance policies then look no further - We highly recommend.
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your help and support in finding us the best mortgage suitable for us, especially during covid -Thank you!!

The whole team at Advantage FS are responsive and professional. They are so helpful and genuinely keen to help which makes the whole mortgage experience less stressful and gives you the assurance that they are doing everything to get you the right mortgage as quickly as possible. Happy to recommend.
A. K.
Brilliant service from James all the way through, very helpful and looks at situation and always finds a solution. James is very friendly and easy to get along with and looks at for the best deal for you.
A. S.
Exceptional service throughout. Tom has been extremely attentive and responsive and fully understood our requirement from the outset. Tom has great knowledge of expat mortgage products, no matter how niche the firm and did a fantastic job in sourcing the right provider for us, based on our needs and situation.
Having expected this to be quite a complex process, being an expat based in Dubai, Tom and Amber both made this process extremely easy and guided us very clearly throughout.
Instant responses to queries, extremely professional and most importantly, knows the market inside and out. We would highly recommend Tom to anyone seeking an expat mortgage in the UK.
M. C. S.
Tom has shown great fortitude in securing me an ex-pat mortgage during an extremely challenging time for all. My circumstances are such that I don't tick the right boxes for vanilla lenders; and Tom has done some major leg work in terms of sourcing. He has also been very straight about managing my expectations and communicating options, and I'm happy to say, has recently secured an excellent mortgage offer which has freed me from a captive and unimpressive SVR. Amber has also been excellent managing the relationship with the new lender and the process of documentation, again under quite challenging circumstances. Their fees are very reasonable considering the saving I'm making on the rate, and any additional fees from the lender have been communicated in a very transparent and timely way. Many thanks Tom and Amber.
s. h.
Very good service throughout our mortgage process. Olivia was a great help and always responded straight away no matter how trivial our queries were. Will recommend to friends and family in the future.
J. C.
I cannot recommend Advantage FS enough, they have gone above and beyond to help me. I was having some trouble securing the mortgage I needed and it was only after a recommendation that I made contact with Steve and I so glad I did. It is really difficult out there at the moment with Covid and the high street lenders are not making it easy. Steve and James thanks again and all your team, brilliant service :)
C. S.
We worked with Tom Collier from Advantage FS on identifying a mortgage for a complex expat / multi-nationality case. We were very pleased with the service we received - professional from the get-go, instant responses, and very fast turnaround of obtaining quotes. Tom also took the time to walk us through the market and explain background facts to us. Would recommend without hesitation.
N. M.
Superb, professional service from start to finish by Tom and team. I was impressed by the care taken to ensure my individual needs were understood, enabling the right mortgage to be sourced. Throughout the process the communication was very good, ensuring I always knew how things were progressing. I strongly recommend Advantage FS.
T. M.
Excellent service from start to finish.
Managed to get us a mortgage against all odds - relocating back to the UK after 20 years with no UK credit history and a challenging property.
Can’t speak highly enough of Advantage’s professionality and especially my advisor Eliana Biasutti who has tried and tried again until she found a solution for us.
Her positive attitude, communication and friendly calls have helped the process greatly.
I have been kept informed about the what and why, with relevant detail where I have asked for it.
S. C.
We managed to get our mortgage offer in record time. The entire team were really responsive and they know their stuff! It was a pleasure dealing with them, they made the process seem easy and seamless. Thanks Advantage!!
m. H.
Absolutely first class service! Very thorough & very, very personable! Steve, the broker who handled the case, persisted through months of obstacles with lenders & covid lock down until we got the result we wanted. He kept me informed throughout the process. I am not only amazed to finally get an offer in these times, but also thankful that I chose Advantage FS. Highly recommended and would definitely use again!
A. N.
Tom and Amber were friendly and professional from day one. They were instantly likable and installed confidence in me that they would find a mortgage successfully after I'd had a bad experience with a previous FA. Communication was good and prompt and any queries were dealt with quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this firm.
A. H.
Steve and Tom at AdvantageFS did an amazing job. Quick, efficient, thorough, secure and without any long winded nonsense. To the point and made everything easy in the process. As such they re-mortgaged, Life Insured plus Buildings and Contents saving us considerable amount on our Monthly outgoings in the process. In addition giving us more cover and enabling us to reside in our current property. Brilliant service and nice friendly and polite people to do business with. Highly recommended. All done during Lockdown and from the comfort of my own home. 5*. Thanks guys.
L. P.
Cannot fault the service we have received from Advantage FS! Sue has taught us everything there is to know about not only the mortgage aspect of a house move but all the bits inbetween too. Offering complete reassurance throughout, we completely trust her recommendations and advice in something people say is one of the most stressful things to do - move house. She has gone above and beyond in answering what feels like endless questions from myself and I would now never use anyone else. Thank you Susannah Truslove!
x. x.
Very friendly team. As a first time buyer had no idea about anything but they helped me lot and found a good deal for me as per my requirements and answered all my queries. Specially Steve morris answered my calls and messages anytime, would definitely recommend to my friends and family as they are really good at it. He even suggested me a good solicitor in the bank panel
S. F.
Ellie at advantage has been amazing through the whole process and got us such an amazing deal on a mortgage which after a year of looking and trying to get one she had us our offer in weeks and managed all the hurdles of getting us one threw at her. We cant thank her enough. i had really lost faith in the housing market and felt it was going to be impossible to get a mortgage but she has done it for us thank you so much Ellie.
J. H.
We were recommended to use Olivia at Advantage FS. As first time buyers the whole process was quite daunting however Olivia has been nothing but professional, helpful and always their when needed guidance. Olivia always kept us updated every step of the way even if their was not much to say we always had contact throughout the whole process. We would highly recommend Olivia and her team
A. V.
First time buyers: absolutely recommend Advantage FS! Tom and the team were thoroughly professional and great at explaining the steps and various options available to us and providing expertise throughout the process. We were kept up to date and did not need to chase anything up; overall very happy with the service. Thanks again!
v. m.
Recently used AdvantageFs to purchase our first home. Could not recommend them enough. Would like to specifically mention Eliana Biasutti who went above and beyond when it came to progressing our application even down to chasing our solicitors for updates. Excellent communication all the way through the process. Very happy with the services and definitely recommending. Thank you again Eliana! 😊

Thank-You to the Advantage team for efficiently & professionally assisting with mortgage arrangement. The process was quick & easy, thanks for all your support Tom & team.
J. W.
So efficient and quick to respond to any issues. They gave me great advice and made getting a mortgage and sorting out conveyancing a quick, stress free and seamless experience. I would highly recommend this firm.
P. T.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Steven and Chantelle for working so hard behind the scenes to help me and my wife remortgage our house with a new lender in a very short time. My wife and I don’t usually do reviews, however, when you consider that we have been living under these extraordinary and unprecedented times and that the process of buying or remortgaging a house has changed dramatically as most offers are made online rather than normal face to face meetings, I feel that the service that we received here was excellent.
Many thanks,
Ranj and Sab
J. S.
My application to raise a mortgage in retirement to provide a home for my daughter was managed by Advantage Financial Solutions with exemplary thoroughness. This was a narrow market and required navigating, for me at least, in unchartered territory! I particularly commend Tom Collier and James Thomas-Howard for their appreciation of this and steering me through the carnage of paperwork to bring things to a successful conclusion. They are a worthy company whose credibility I checked out with both the FCA and an accounting executive friend in advance. I particularly applaud their immediate responses, including weekends, as the administration of the loan entered a critical phase.
S. M.
We found Steve at AFS through Facebook. We had quite a specialised requirement but right from the beginning he made us feel like our criteria would be possible and wasn't actually that out of the ordinary. Without using Steve we would have definitely been liable for additional fees. He was open and approachable through the process and even replied to us on a weekend.
We received a mortgage offer within a few days from submitting all of the paperwork.
Great service, would definitely recommend and use again.
J. G.
I don't know where to start with how AMAZING Ryan at Advantage FS has been throughout our mortgage process and beyond.
We came across a few hurdles due to both my husband and i being self employed first time buyers wanting to buy during the pandemic! These factors made the process harder than what it would have been before Covid but Ryan was so on it every step of the way and we couldn't have done it without him. He went above and beyond and we could tell he genuinely wanted to help us. He never made us feel stupid for asking what may have been obvious questions to someone in the business and always got back to us straightaway with answers to any questions we had. There were never any hidden or additional charges on top of Ryan's fee (which he definitely earned!)
Ryan also sorted out our life insurance for us which again, made the whole process so much easier and stress free.
Ryan is genuine, helpful, friendly and professional. We will be forever grateful for all Ryan has done for us and will continue to recommend him to friends and family. We look forward to using him again in the future.
J. T.
I highly recommend the services of Steve Morris. My Wife and I we're first time buyers with very little knowledge of mortgages and the purchase process, so understandably we had a mountain of questions. Steve was patient and considerate in dealing with our concerns, he made sure we understood every stage of the process and the reasons why various actions were taken. We were so pleased with the friendly and professional service that I since recommended Steve to friends and colleagues.
A. P.
Tom and Amber were excellent. Tom in particular was extremely quick to respond to any incoming questions and provide robust, comprehensive answers promptly. We got an agreement in principle extremely quickly, followed by a Mortgage offer despite being located overseas. Fees were also reasonable. Amber was also extremely helpful when she joined my case. Highly recommended.
M. A.
Ryan has been a pleasure to deal with.. He is efficient, knowledgeable and really friendly. He got our mortgage quickly when we were competing with other buyers and has been with us all the way, I cannot recommend highly enough.
K. S.
I've had a great experience with Advantage - so professional and I really feel like I'm in great hands. They've helped me with a rather complicated remortgaging project, and with a buy-to-let mortgage for a rental property and it's all gone very smoothly. I feel like I've come away with a great deal and clarity around next steps. Thank you!
F. B.
Very complicated two mortgages amazingly dealt by Tom Collier. Very professional service with really good communication. Tom was on top of the case all the way through. Amazing mortgage offer at really good interest rate. Highly recommended.
D. S.
When I bought my first house a few years ago my experience with brokers put me off using them entirely. I felt like they were more interested in selling me additional insurance than working out what was best for me so I did it myself. This time around I had a slightly more complex situation so went through Advantage. Steven was a whole different story, he gave me loads of different options, talked through my long term plans and did all the work for me. He also found me a much better rate than I could find on comparison sites, with all of the features I wanted. I'm genuinely a lot better off than I would have been if I hadn't talked to Advantage FS.
D. M.
Advantage mortgage broker, Ellie Biasutti, gave excellent advice and assistance in obtaining a 65% LTV at a great interest only rate for a buy to let mortgage. Ellie fully explained the process of obtaining the mortgage at all stages in a comprehensive and easy to understand way. Highly recommended.
C. H.
We are first time buyers and was recommended to advantage fs. We are so glad we used steven and the advantage team as they were very helpful, quick to respond and get a mortgage for us. We cannot Thankyou enough for your hard work and we will 100% be using you next time around!
These are your guys if you want help and advise getting a mortgage!
S. E.
Myself and my partner are first time buyers, we did not have a clue where to start, Steve and Chantelle from Advantage have been more than helpful. Steve explained every step of the way to us in a way we could understand, its clear he is very experienced in what he does. We could not have asked for a better experience. Any time or day we had a question however sill they would be there to support us. Would 1000% recommend these guys, if and when we come to move we will defiantly make contact again. Thank you for all your support along the way :)
D. C.
I highly recommend Advantage FS. Thanks to Steve Morris for the excellent service. He was professional from start to finish. I will definitely use the company again.
J. G.
We’ve had nothing but great service from both Sue for our mortgage and James for our insurance. Quick to come back to you and really good at explaining things in simple terms. Thank you for making at least these parts of the whole stressful process easy for us!
R. B. C.
A very helpful team, especially Rob J. who is ever so attentive, what a star! Recommend.
M. S.
Really excellent service - great advice and speedy response. Did a great job, especially considering the current turmoil. Highly recommended.
S. R.
This was my first time buying and I had heard such horror stories about finding a decent broker. Then, I got a call from Dan Light from Advantage FS and I immediately felt in good hands, largely because he translated the jargon so brilliantly but also because he went about doing so patiently and time-generously. My instincts were not wrong in putting all my eggs in one basket. Dan tirelessly worked on our case exploring all options and presenting us with their fullest and detailed accounts. When a lender let us down, he was quick to source a new and arguably better solution. I couldn't recommend Dan and Advantage FS more highly. If you're reading this, you've come to the right place - you can put your faith in Dan. Big thanks to Amber too for being so responsive, kind and helpful throughout.
C. C.
Highly recommend this company.
Tom and the team have been exceptional. My partner and I will be forever grateful for the assistance we received in getting our mortgage offer for our house purchase. Tom has an in-depth knowledge of the market and products on offer, which is beneficial when making decisions on which products to go for.
Thanks again for the help.
A. H.
We would highly recommend Advantage. We were unable to obtain a mortgage with a previous broker due to being self employed, however Tom and James worked tirelessly to ensure we not only secured a mortgage but one with more than half the interest rate of our previous brokers failed attempts. Thank you guys!
P. S.
The Advantage team may have now overcome their greatest challenge yet with my case. Complexity involving earnings from the USA, no credit history in the UK amongst many other factors they managed to secure a mortgage against all odds with lenders, to pursue the purchase of a property in the UK and during a pandemic in record time.
Steven, Chantelle, and the Advantage team were relentless in the pursuit of success no matter what obstacles or challenges they faced. When all others resigned to the fact that our situation was impossible, Advantage found a solution. I cannot recommend them enough.
Peter
M. H.
Very professional and efficient. Sue was quick to respond to any query and provide all the information that we needed to secure the mortgage offer in principle and then the mortgage offer.We cannot speak too highly of the assistance given during the whole process including liaising with the lender, developer and solicitor when things got difficult towards completion. Would definitely use again.
M. A.
Well, where do I start... Steve & Chantelle are the duo who are sent from Heaven. After a 4 month long saga with an almost non-responsive lender, to eventually being declined a mortgage from them, Steve & Chantelle never gave up on us, instead they found us another solution, which turned out to be a much better rate than our first attempt. Our property had been reserved for quite some time and I was starting to worry that they would put the property back on the market due to the length of time it was taking us to secure a mortgage. Steve acted diligently and continuously believed he would secure a mortgage offer for us despite having being let down by a lender. Chantelle was an absolute hero as well, constantly chasing up enquiries and being so friendly and on the ball! After what felt like an eternity with our new lender, we secured the mortgage offer and are finally getting to purchase our first home!! People say buying your first house is one of the most stressful things you could ever go through in life... they're not wrong, but I can tell you one thing, with Steve & Chantelle in your corner, their resilience and hunger to secure you that all important mortgage offer will make your life that little bit easier! A big thank you from Mark, Nicole & our puppy George! x
J. K.
Advantage,by far the best service we have ever received , as first time buyers we didnt know where to start or what to do , and dan light made the whole thing so easy for us. Any question was answered within the same day , any worries we had dan resolved. We genuinly couldnt recommend them any higher.
But the biggest part of what they done was after we had paid them and after dan had done his job and got us our mortgage. Our solicitors completely messed our forms up and we had 24 hours to complete and exchange untill we would have been left homeless with a 5 year old child, with our solicitors not answering we didnt know what to do , so i rang dan for advice and straight away he was on the phone sorting it , dan managed to sort everything out for us to be able to move in even after the solicitors messed it up 8 times , dan made sure we had somewhere to stay while he was sorting everything out and managed to get us in and took all of the stress off of us. Thank you so much to all of the team at advantage , especially dan light and incredible bussiness with the highest of customer service
a. k.
Michael did a fantastic job in arranging a mortgage for us. The portal proved an extremely efficient tool for uploading documents and Michael was always quick to respond to any queries we had and push the application through. We would certainly use Michael at Advantage again.
C. S.
Steve has been excellent - despite two house purchases that fell through, he did not charge any extra to get us over the line the third time.
Always easy to get hold off and works extremely quickly.
Can highly recommend!
m. b.
Sue is amazing in less than 2 weeks she had arranged our mortage!
She put us at ease from our first conversation, keeping us informed and up to date thought the process. We would highly recommend using Sue's services.

Steve and Chantelle were wonderful helping us with our mortgage as first time buyers. Endlessly patient with millions of questions and really great at working different scenarios for us. Can’t thank them enough!

Excellent service from Steven Morris & Advantage fs for re-mortgage offer received within 7 working days would recommend for there excellent work and advice. Top job Ken
O. C.
Our case is more tricky as income from overseas & loan size is relatively big. Many brokers not willing to take the business. Advantage did excellent job from start till mortgage offered(get good rate too). Need particular big thanks to Steve & Chantelle: really helpful & always response quick :)
A. B.
I contacted advantage fs and was in contact with Steven Morris. Steven and I had numerous conversations to discuss my requirements and aims for changing mortgage provider. Steven assessed my entire situation and came up with multiple options showing Steven's experience in this field. I particularly was pleased with this service because Steven identified that in my current circumstances I would be better off remaining with my current mortgage and not remortgaging with them at this time. I was extremely pleased with this honesty and professionalism. I certainly will be back to this company when it comes to the right time to renew.
N. W.
Fantastic experience with Tom and James at Advantage FS - the team are very knowledgeable, responsive and clear in communication - highly recommend their services.
C. A.
Advantage mortgage services has helped me throughout my mortgage application where they have been so helpful that’s even so with a couple of issues with my mortgage application a gentleman named Steve was very responsive and very professional and his work and he made my mortage go threw very smoothly.
I appreciate him and his team and all the advantage through I will be sending you the champagne and looking Forward to work in the future.
Thanks once more again
A. N.
Michael made the whole process extremely easy, due to a couple of previous issues on my credit file I was worried about finding a mortgage, but Michael was able to guide me through the application, find me a great deal and was quick, professional and engaged during the whole process! Highly recommended.
M. T.
We had outstanding service from Dan at Advantage FS. It was a complex arrangement with a lot of back and forth, all of which Dan supported us with with great professionalism, dedication and patience. Really can't recommend him highly enough.
N. C.
I can't recommend the services of Sue Truslove at Advantage FS highly enough. She is utterly brilliant, patient and calm. We would have been totally at sea without her.
J. H.
An absolutely brilliant service. I can’t recommended these guys highly enough. Steve has been superb every step of the way and is always available and prompt to answer any questions at any time. Even in his absence, Dan made himself available to us who also provided a top service. We are first time buyers and I would advise any others in this position to go through this company too. You won’t be disappointed.

I feel very lucky to have found this company.They have not only found me a good mortgage but have been there to answer questions and support me through the process. They were able to help me, as an older client, to get a good deal when other brokers were unable to. I would definitely recommend them.
M. L.
Dan was very professional and really helpful as this was my first mortgage. Even though I was working in a foreign country, all communication was extremely clear.
I would definitely recommend them for anybody wanting to purchase their new property.
T. L.
From our first contact I felt that Dan clearly understood what I was looking for. I was presented with options that I probably wouldn't have found myself and then the team followed through with the application process on my behalf. It was awesome that I was given an initial confirmation of the offer after 2 working days and received the formal offer documents from the lender arrived within a week. Very happy with the service and the outcome.

We consider ourselves very lucky to get Sue to help us out with our remorgage. She's been with us every step of the way, she was always willing to do extra and we cannot describe service that she provided. Highly professional, highly recommend!
L. W.
I couldn’t have picked a better service than the one that I received from Tom. He was informative and was able to answer any questions that I had. You could really see the years of experience he has in the answers he gave. To to be honest, I wouldn’t even have known where to start, but Tom was very patient and explained every thing to me at my own pace.
I would recommend Advantage to everyone and especially those like me, who really could do with someone to take it step by step with them.
When I look to move again in a couple of years, Advantage will be one of the first places I go. Thank you again Tom.

Our first mortgage dealing for 40 years, Dan Pike was everything we could have wished for, helpful, informative, professional. He has made a testing time for us an easy ride.
N. L.
Excellent service, couldn’t be happier!! Dan was our adviser and went above and beyond our expectations. We were buying our home under the Right to Buy scheme so didn’t know how it would work. Dan guided us through every step, and even made us aware that we could actually borrow more than we thought to make improvements to our home. Will definitely be using again, and have recommended to my family and friends.
R. A.
Outstanding service! I can’t start to thank Eliana enough who has been super efficient, prompt and very professional with everything , and pushing us through to get me and my husband our first home in a short span of time , even when I thought it was impossible ! I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who needs advice on mortgages and especially Eliana which was very excellent throughout it all. 5 star all the way ..

I got in touch with Steven as we started struggling to get a 90% LTV when coronavirus started to take hold. After starting to panic, he managed to get us a mortgage offer within a couple of weeks at a really good rate. He was available within the hour and provided reassurance during a stressful time... well worth the fee!
P. D.
Very responsive, helpful and a pleasure to communicate with. They have been able to find me a great mortgage deal. Very happy with their services and would highly recommend them.

As a Landlord & property investor, a good mortgage broker is an essential ‘spoke in the wheel’.
AFS listen carefully to their clients needs, search the market for the best solutions, then deliver an efficient and timely service. They are by your side every step of the way.
AFS excel at what they do because they are experts in their field, and have a ‘can do’ attitude. Also, their fee structure is competitive.
My latest property transaction with AFS (£700k finance) involved three mortgages and a purchase/sale in the middle of the Covid-19 outbreak! No doubt, few other brokers could have got the transaction over-the-line.
I have no hesitation in awarding AFS ‘5 stars’ & have already recommended their services to many others!
R. T.
I would highly recommend this company, they are professional and very helpful and the advice and end service is brilliant, efficient and friendly at all times.
J. M.
Before we found dan pike at advantage we had no where to turn due to my credit lenders were laughing at us even some other mortgage advisors would not even entertain trying to find us a mortgage deal of a decent amount however within weeks of being in contact with dan we had a couple of options to choose from and good options at that no silly fees no hidden agendas in the small print! Dan is also very helpful polite understanding and makes you feel like you can ask him anything which we did as we got stressed with the whole house buying thing quite a few times but rest assured dan was the person to explain everything in detail outline the positives and kept pushing us in the right direction to summarise five stars isn't enough of a compliment for dan superb
C. K.
Michael Caines was absolutely fantastic in helping us secure our first mortgage- quick, responsive and kept us fully updated throughout. Couldn't recommend enough.
D. K.
Dan was brilliant at sorting our mortgage. Our income was slightly difficult as some was paid in cash, but he was able to fins an amazing deal for us. The whole service from start to finish was exceptional.
H. C.
Tom and the team were fantastic in helping us secure our mortgage. We were informed every step of the way and couldn’t ask for better service. Highly recommend!
A. M.
Excellent customer oriented service by Dan Pike, would strongly recommend to my friends.
K. S.
Dan sorted out mortgage for our move and we have had a relationship with him for several years. He is an absolute star and always on the end of the phone when you need him. Couldn't imagine going through this process without him!
M. C.
Steve was extremely helpful: he quickly established that my best course of action was to remain with a currently-held product which meant that he would not be able to charge a fee by moving me onto a new product, but he did not seek to end our conversation when he came to this conclusion and indeed was thorough in checking that this was the case. He clearly had experience and knowledge of a quite specific set of circumstances and anticipated most of my questions.
It is (unfortunately) becoming very rare to feel that you are being given straightforward advice which is in your best interests but that is exactly what I feel Steve gave me - thank you.
B. L.
We are are extremely happy with the service and support that we have received from Tom. His communication has been top drawer, always dealing with our application with the upmost professionalism. We will definitely be using you again. Thank you again for all your support!
A.
I can not thank Sue enough for her dedication and professionalism in finding me the best deals on the market. I was kept informed and aware of any changes or issues that occurred. I highly recommend Advantage FS for their services and would certainly use them again in the future.
L. M.
I’ve been dealing with Dan Pike for the last 5 years and will continue to seek advice from him for future remortgages and purchases. The process is always smooth and I know I’ve had great advice and been looked after from start to finish.
D. G.
Fantastic team of people, everyone of them a great help and most importantly communication was very clear and consistent. They got me a great deal and at no point did I feel like there was any hard sell, which is rare these days.
D. J.
We approached Susannah, as first time buyers shes was friendly, easy to communicate with and professional.
With everything with covid it made the mortage situation a bit more complicated and without Susannah and her knowledge we don't believe we would have the mortage offer we received.
Would highly recommend Susannah and Advantage Fs.
s. o.
Dan took the stress out of obtaining a mortgage, was super responsive and obtained a fantastic rate for me. Dan was always available and kept me updated throughout my application. Will use again.
J. M.
Fantastic service from the start. As first time buyers the advice we have had from Ryan regarding our mortgage & the house buying process has been invaluable & has taken a lot of stress out of buying our first home. Could not recommend highly enough.

Words will become less! Tom is nothing but AMAZING, he has been supportive and understanding throughout! It was unfortunate we had a family mishap but that didn't stop Tom, he went above and beyond for us, he ensured all was done and kept in touch through any means he could get in contact with, defo went above and beyond. Never once did he say can't help, sorry; like many others have. He helped with what we had and advised how we need to improve to get what we wanted. Everything was clear, he explained everything to us, I would ask him the most stupidest questions and he never belittled or never got annoyed with me for not knowing a term or phrase! No hidden fees, no false claims
Its all crystal clear from the start, he made my last ray of hope into my home! Me, my husband and kids are thankful to him, its new beginning for us all!
M. V.
We used Advantage for our re-mortgage and found them to be professional and helpful. Great communication and a hassle free service.

I would really recommend them - explain things clearly, seem to get things done quickly. Reliable, professional. Keep you updated and reply soon to any queries.
I needed a specific type of mortgage, and they demonstrated a good knowledge of the markets, and the options available.
E. B.
What can I say, everyone is very professional and understanding, always ready to help and answer your questions.

Dealt with my fair share of brokers, these guys bloody brilliant. Excellent from start to finish.

Absolutely awesome service. Very knowledgable. Initially I was concerned that once the mortgage offer was received my broker would no longer provide any support but this was not they case. My broker was engaged until ‘completion’ was confirm.
F. G.
I cannot recommend Advantage FS enough, in particular Tom! From the initial communications, to the ongoing application process, right through to post-offer, they offer a personal and exceptional service!

Fantastic service and great communication from Olivia Harris, I would definitely recommend Advantage FS to anyone looking for a mortgage.

A great personal experience with these guys.
Very responsive, not "salesy" at all, especially compared to to other companies i've spoken with.
As a stressed out first time buyer, it's a relief to have someone make the experience straight forward and they found me a great deal.
It was really worth it, thanks guys!!!

Good advice , always responsive, would definitely use again

This is a 5 star local mortgage advice business . Ignore the most recent (and the only poor review on here) below. We are aware of a local competitor trolling google accounts, and we believe this to be the same person using another fake account.
