Our experience with Adam Flaherty could not be more pleasant. Adam is extremely friendly and professional and delivered the most exceptional level of care you could imagine. Being a complete newbie to mortgage and other applications, Adam made it the easiest and most efficient part of the whole process of buying a flat. His honesty and expertness really put our mind at ease. Whenever we were in doubt, Adam was on the bell and was happy to help and give suggestions even on things that were not directly related to his role and for that we are very grateful. I would confidently recommend Adam to anyone.

We have successfully transacted two mortgages with SPF. Julia Shikina is outstanding - great knowledge of the market and process, super efficient and friendly. Everyone we talked to at SPF provided fast, accurate information and Matt Jeffrey stands out ensuring the process was fast and painless. A great experience all round. Thanks!

M. G.

The purchase of our first home and navigating the mortgage market was made hugely manageable and stress free by our dealings with Jack Flynn; we found the service to be professional, efficient and settled on a mortgage offer much higher what another advisor (unconnected with SPF) had indicated was the highest they could procure for us. We also used their services for our home and personal insurance through Ryan Clay who has made the insurance world seem positively pleasant. Coincidentally, we are currently making our first claim and it has been very easy going as a result of having Ryan as a point of contact. I have since personally recommended the firm to work colleagues who have been equally happy with SPF, demonstrating their consistency to me.

M. L.

I can't recommend enough. I was referred to Elena Todorova by a good friend, and I'm very happy that I took his advice. Both Elena and her colleague Megan Horsley were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and efficient. Very friendly to speak work with and super professional.

n. b.

Have used Julia on many occasions over the years for both our residential and buy-to-let mortgages and re-mortgages. Never let us down in any way, always knowledgeable, complete understanding of the market and more importantly clients' needs. Rather than suggest anything that may not be suitable she takes great care to understand and explain everything and always available. Great communication and service thank you. No hesitation recommending her and SPF.

R. S.

My experience with SPF finance was outstanding. Jack Flynn was given the unenviable task of arranging two buy to let mortgages and a residential mortgage, there was a great deal of research and problem solving in order to pull things off, he kept positive and used contacts at the institutions to help speed things up. Would fully recommend and would use again, good value for money.

We recently re-mortgaged with SPF. Our broker; Elena was extremely efficient, professional, and hard working. The whole process was very smooth and timely, and concluded without any issues. Elena is super smart and good at her job, whilst at the same time being very warm, friendly and helpful. Whatever your mortgage needs, big or small, she will walk you through the financial process, offering proper and ‘real’ advice, and always working in your best interest. A real asset to SPF and we cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have just purchased my first property with the support of Julia and Matthew from SPF and I can't say enough positive things about my experience. Incredibly knowledgeable, prompt at responding, eager to help and offer advice/support and (possibly most importantly), have been clear with me throughout the whole process so I have always know what's being done and what next steps are. Very grateful to them both for helping me navigate my first property purchase!

M. R.

I worked with Julia at SPF over the very extended and undulating period of my move. I can't speak highly enough about her dedication and unwavering positive assistance throughout. Julia and her colleagues Ian and Mat were pivotal in my achieving a transaction that I'd never previously thought possible. Without doubt the best financial services service I've ever experienced.

J. L.

Great service from a professional broker I used SPF to find my first time mortgage. Working with Broker Jack Flynn, he explained all of my options and helped me to make an informed decision on which mortgage worked best for me. The agreement in principle was completed in a matter of days and everything was completed to a professional standard. I have since recommended using Jack to a number of friends and family - he has not disappointed. See you when its time to remortgage.

O. B.

Elena has been very helpful and reactive to get our mortgage sorted very quickly. I would definitely recommend SPF (and Elena).

M. S.

I was referred to Scott McHugh by the friend of mine who worked with Scott on his property purchase. I didn't even know how lucky I was to find out about SPF from the friend of mine rather than trying to google for the mortgage broker. I was amazed by a fantastic job Scott and the team have done throughout the entire property buy journey. I was in a good hands from the very beginning as I could bring up any question I had and get always a professional and experienced answer and guidance which made all the process so simple for me. Brilliant job and a great experience for me by working with a high class team. Recommend to everyone who wants hassle free mortgage with guaranteed high quality results in a very time efficient manner!

T. F.

SPF assisted with our mortgage for our new house. Their advice was superb - we definitely felt in safe hands. Jack Flynn handled our case and he was always very quick to respond and his advice was clear. We will definitely be using SPF again.

O. U.

My most sincere thanks go out to Jack Flynn and the SPF team who supported us on our recent house purchase. It was an extremely complex structuring that was only made possible through their market knowledge and connectivity, combined with sheer determination to get the best possible deal for us. it was a long process but they always proved responsive and available to provide guidance on not just our mortgages but insurance and protection options as well. During the final exchange and completions phase, Jack went far beyond what would normally be considered a broker's responsibility - liaising with solicitors, developers and estate agents to ensure we closed the deal within tight timeframes. We couldn't be happier with their service and look forward to working with them again in future.

P. K.

The experience I had with SPF was quite possibly the best customer service I have ever experienced. The associate director who worked on our account was always on call. 8pm on a Sunday night? No problem. Above and beyond help in dealing with mortgages that he was not selling? No problem. These guys found us a mortgage that cut our monthly payments by 30% and made it super easy by filling in forms for us. All in all a truely pleasurable experience - it was just nice to have someone who you knew by name at the other end of the phone to discuss problems and find solutions with. I have already recommended SPF to friends and colleagues and wouldn't hesitate to do so in the future.

T. W.

100% recommend SPF Private Clients for market-leading mortgage products as well as friendly, knowledgeable advice on insurance and more. Marcus Hodges has provided a faultless service for a number of property transactions over the years and this time around we are dealing with Holly who has been AMAZING! Thanks.

L. R.

We have been using Elena Todorova at SPF for a while now to organise a wide variety of buy to let and residential mortgages. She has never let us down and always found great products for us at highly preferential rates, despite the fact that our situation is not a simple one and often involves quite a bit of problem solving and research. SPF's fees are also very competitive considering the outstanding service we receive. Elena is highly efficient and responds to queries immediately and her administrative team are also very capable, speedy to answer questions, and easy to work with. We would not hesitate to recommend SPF to others (and in fact have done so!).

E. F.

Julia really helped us with securing 3 excellent mortgages each with specific requirements. Her knowledge of the market really allowed us to explore different possible scenarios and in the end pick which scenario had the best fit for our circumstances. Julia and team were always at hand for any queries, excellent communication and really do most of the work for you. Highly recommended.

Z. Q.

Top class service Recently used SPF to re-mortgage my property and it was a seamless process. I had the pleasure of dealing with Jack Flynn and his team, who found me a very competitive rate and managed the process end to end. I am pleased to have found a mortgage broker that is competent and professional and goes above and beyond to assist you.

H. T.

Excellent service from Paul and the team at SPF. Super quick, responsive service at height of Covid. Excellent product advice, speedy paperwork, no time wasted hanging around. Only part of the process without delays. Exemplary service.

L. C.

We recently used a broker called Jack at SPF for our purchase and he was brilliant. The purchase was much more complicated than we anticipated (it always seems to be!) and involved Jack finding a solution for us to purchase the entire freehold to the building for our flat, in addition to the leasehold. All of the high street banks and even our solicitor did not think it was possible due to mortgage covenants, however, SPF came up with a solution that no one else had thought of. Throughout the process we felt like Jack was the one person on our side trying to get the deal done, using his experience with estate agents and solicitors to keep the process running smoothly. We will always use SPF.

m. b.

Thank you SPF for doing an amazing job for us ( thats 2 completed deals now). 5 stars for tailoring a mortgage to our individual requirements, nothing was ever a problem for you to deal with. 1st Class service from Cristian is much appreciated and look forward to working with you again. Can highly recommend this firm to anyone considering Property Finance.

A. A.

Thank you very much to Elena Todorova and Megan Horsley for helping us with the purchase of our first home. They are very knowledgeable and always available to help. We would recommend them to anyone needing a broker.

S. S.

I used SPF last year when I was based in Singapore and buying my first home in London. Harry Burrett was our adviser. It was the smoothest and quickest sale possible because SPF had organized the mortgage so efficiently. They understood the client needs and the market very well and were prompt and pleasant to deal with. I would use them again.

K. D.

Ben Senior helped me with the purchase of my first home and I could not recommend him more highly. He and his team were friendly, responsive and diligent and went out of their way the really help us make sense of the whole process in a timely manner. Delighted with their work, and they got us a great rate too. Hope to work with him again in the future.

S. H.

Have been dealing with SPF for many years now and have done all my properties. They are exceptional to say the least. Have always been extremely satisfied with their service and have recommended many family and friends. My personal broker is Kris Lecocq, I always know my personal affairs and finance is in good hands. Will continue to use Kris and SPF for many years to come.

D. Z.

I cannot recommend SPF Private Clients enough, they are incredible independent brokers. They had access to the best rates, saving me money. Ben Senior in particular is incredibly diligent and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

D. K.

Very impressed with the SPF experience. Andrew Nolder provides a first-rate service, with a smile. My mortgage was very far from the biggest he has ever worked on but he dealt with my concerns and queries with good-humoured professionalism. Look him up!

S. B.

I am truly indebted to SPF for their dedicated service and invaluable advice. Getting a mortgage is a very daunting task for foreign nationals, however, their skilful team has helped me go through the process smoothly, and get a loan at a very competitive rate. I have no hesitation whatsoever to recommend them very highly

B. P.

SPF in no small way shepherded my husband and me through the process of successfully obtaining financing for our first home in the UK. In particular, the services of Jack Flynn of that firm were outstanding. He demonstrated a genuine devotion to our matter over many, many months -- a circumstance no doubt made more difficult for him due to the multiple sales we had agreed which, for reasons related to the sellers involved, ultimately fell through. I would emphasise that Jack went well beyond what would have been traditionally required of him from a financing perspective, including liaising with our lawyer and sellers' estate agents on numerous occasions, and frequently offering sage advice to us as first time UK home buyers. His regular availability was also very much appreciated by us, ensuring that when important questions arose we would get answers expediently. In what ended up being a protracted and difficult process, my husband and I benefited enormously from being able to count on Jack as a part of our team.

T. Z.

Used SPF for my house purchase and couldn't recommend a better service. Susannah Preston provided great advice for a complex deal and Holly Budd was a brilliant point of contact throughout the process. Thank you both for helping me with this transaction, I hope to use you soon

A. D.

I worked very closely with various members of SPF team on a number of products and highly recommend Michael Field, Nick Wheeler and Ian Leader. The service was excellent with the products offered customised to suit the evolving cycle of my business. Top class advisors who put the interest of their clients at the forefront of their service.

J.

Scott & Erin were fantastic in helping me and my girlfriend purchase our flat. As first time buyers, they removed all the complications and worries around arranging our mortgage and provided a seamless service all the way through to completion.

P. P.

Elena and Megan made this process an absolute dream. They were ahead of the game, solved any problem almost before we knew about it and undoubtedly provided us with a service we would not have received elsewhere. Any and all of my future mortgage advice will be sought here!

a. c.

I was helped enormously by Harry Burrett at SPF clients when I was looking to buy a flat. He arranged my mortgage for me and whatsmore advised me. He was friendly and professional and I grew to trust him. He went beyond the call and secured not just the best mortage for me on the flat I was looking to buy, but actually was integral to getting the estate agent to lower the value of the property in line with the morgage provider's recommendations. I would not hestiate in both recommending him to friends and he would be my first port of call should I want to buy another property in the future.

L. C.

Very pleased with the level of service we received from Jack. He is extremely knowledgeable. Throughout the process he kept me informed and appraised of our options. He was extremely patient and responsive to the numerous questions I had. It was first class service from start to finish. Thanks Jack and everyone on the team for going the extra mile. We wholeheartedly recommend Jack and the team at SPF.

C. S.

After years of dealing with various companies I was introduced to Laura Toke at SPF, it seemed my luck changed with finance because all the previous issues that had been thrown at me did not exist with her. I now have finance on 3 properties all through her without any issue or headache. I have now recommended her to all my friends in the industry. I understand they are all as pleased as I am. Craig

S.

Scott McHugh delivered me a fantastic service. Mortgage offer within 5 days, hand held me and the estate agents through the end to end process, overall a world class mortgage brokering experience. I will not use anyone else except Scott and SPF

S. P.

Awesome. One of the best customer experiences I've had in recent memory. Paul Mavin and his team are exceptional - I have already referred five friends and we only just completed. The one breath of fresh air in the miserable process of buying a property in the UK! Thanks SPF. Client for life.

B. C.

Superb service. SPF fully managed my re-mortgage and timed everything for me so everything fell into place when it was supposed to. I had a complex arrangement with my previous lender, but SPF took the worry and stress away from me by keeping me fully my updated with progress. Yes, I would recommend to others.

M. A.

We recently applied a bridging loan by the help of Miss Laura Toke at SPF and i was very pleased to see her professionalism, experience and strong will to help her client. Thanks a lot and i am pretty sure that we will use SPF again for our future borrowing requirements. Thank You !

p. s.

I have arranged numerous buy-to-let mortgages and refinances over the last five years with SPF. Kris LeCocq (Associate Director) has been instrumental in ensuring that each process has process has ended in a successful conclusion. Inevitably with such arrangements, difficulties arise but Kris has been able to skillfully negotiate the hurdles to ensure finance was in place when I needed it. With all the other headaches involved in property purchases I can rest assured that Kris will be pulling out all the stops to ensure the mortgage finance isn't one of them.

K. M.

Excellent service. Level of communication between client and SPF second to none. Trying to sort out mortgages or insurance is always a tricky process so dealing with professionals is a plus.The highest of recommendations.

H. D.

From knowledge of the market, to prompt and tailored advice, to incredible energy to make sure things happen at every turn, often going the extra mile to make sure they do, I cannot fault the help and service I have received from Julia Shikina, Ian Leader and their colleagues at SPF Private Clients.

R.

Scott McHugh and Erin Hudson have been a dream team of mortgage advice! We have worked with them on more than one transaction, our own and that of family, and have also recommended them to friends who now also sing their praises. Scott is both knowledgeable and professional - he knows the market really well and is a keen problem solver. He will find you that mortgage rate or condition that you need! And he will do so with patient and prompt communication, that gives you peace of mind. Erin is also a fantastic communicator and always friendly and positive. She is very efficient too, and will have her eye very closely on the process so she can follow up with lenders if the pace ever drops. Scott and Erin both intervened to move things along for us several times in a long and arduous purchase. We would like to thank them warmly for helping us buy the place we wanted, and recommend them unreservedly to future clients. SPF is also an integrated team of advisors so if you work with Scott he will be able to then put you in touch with insurance advisors when you need them, who are equally professional and helpful. Here I would like to thank Ryan Clay and Darren Jayne, both insurance advisors of the first order. Thank you all.

S. B.

Adam was absolutely amazing from start to finish of our mortgage application and approval. Incredibly professional, friendly and on the ball the whole time. Would highly recommend :-)

J. H.

We were looked after by Marcus Hodges. First class service from start to finish, thoroughly professional and kept us updated every step of the way. He provided us with expert advice and market leading rates. Would highly recommend both him and SPF.

L. H.

Jack is just brilliant and always turns our mortgages around very quickly. He knows the product set inside out and will always come up with innovative ideas to meet completing financing needs and is honest about the upfront costs and on going potential risk factors which frankly breeds loyalty. I always recommend him to our friends.

S. L.

Holly Budd and Tristan Davies were wonderful to work - incredibly attentive, helpful and thoroughly professional throughout the process. They made life very easy for me as their client and I am very grateful for their services.

G. E.

When my bank pulled out of an agreement, 10 days before completion and after exchange, I needed some finance in a hurry. I contacted Kerry and Laura Toke and they sorted out my problem within the time frame. Excellent service and I thoroughly recommend their services.

g. l.

I would highly recommend Ben Senior at SPF. He was extremely hard working, friendly and pro active. He helped me gain a better understanding of mortgages.

A. L.

Efficient and reliable from start to finish. As first-time buyers we were fully supported through out the process by broker Jack Flynn and received great results. Having been introduced via friends and family with similar experiences, i feel confident in highly recommending him and the company.

D.

Service second to none. Elena and Matthew will sort out any queries you have and secure various options for finance at the best available rates. A one stop efficient shop for your property, insurance, investment and financial needs.

I. H.

Steve and his team are amazing guys They helped us through a very fractious period in our lives and we are now coming out the other end with a better life than we could envisage a few months ago.

My partner and I recently bought our first property with invaluable support from Julia, Matt and the rest of the team at SPF. Julia took a lot of time to talk us through every step of this process and was always at the end of the phone to answer all our questions no matter how trivial they seemed. We couldn't have had better guidance to help us through an initially daunting experience. Julia shared her knowledge and understanding of the market which ultimately helped us make the best informed decision. Her and the team were friendly, efficient, prompt and thorough. I would highly recommend their services.

Jack and Erin were absolutely brilliant and I couldn't recommend them more highly. I am self-employed and a first time buyer and so obtaining a mortgage wasn't the most straightforward task. Jack sorted everything out for us. From first meeting with Jack to completion on our lovely house was 8 weeks. Jack kept us updated on progress and was always available on the phone and email. The team are friendly and easy to work with. We will definitely be using SPF and Jack again.
