Real-Life Client Stories
”My wife and I have recently looked at locking in a new deal for a re-mortgage. In this current time mortgages and interest rates can be fairly daunting. Ollie made sure everything was clear and took all the stress away making the process that much simpler. His knowledge on the markets was second to none and ensured we were getting the best deal to meet our individual needs and not just a standard run of the mill mortgage deal. He took the time to personally understand us and our needs before proceeding with anything, a real personal service.
Harry Gooch, East Sussex
”When it came to remortgaging my home, I was dreading it due to the previous experience we had with another mortgage company but then we found Ollie and he made it stress free for us and helped us to remortgage and take equity out the property. I couldn't recommend him enough! Ollie helped us with literally everything, recommended a solicitors, sorted the insurance for us, found us the best deal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can NHS staff get special mortgage rates?
Some lenders may consider your NHS employment favourably, offering higher income multiples or more flexible terms for key workers. However, there isn’t one specific NHS-only mortgage product.
Do lenders accept NHS overtime or unsocial hours pay?
Yes — many lenders will consider overtime, shift pay and allowances where possible, but each lender’s criteria differ. Having an expert broker helps make sure your income is presented correctly.
Is there a deposit requirement for NHS staff?
Deposit requirements vary by lender and product, but as with all mortgages, larger deposits typically improve your chances of competitive rates and approvals.
