Client Feedback
Ashley and the team were fantastic in helping me find a mortgage and finally get into the property ladder. Really patient with all my questions and always got back very fast with answers and new mortgage product possibilities. Would definitely recommend!
Paul has been excellent from start to finish, as always – I can not see that I would ever think of going to anyone else and recommend him whenever asked without hesitation He addresses my wife and I as equals, is thorough, patient, personable and professional in equal measure.
Paul was so helpful and really took the time to explain everything to us. Very satisfied and have already recommended BLR to a number of friends!
Professional, knowledgable, efficient and top class. Highly recommended.
