Here's some of the feedback we've received from our mortgage clients

Mortgage Service Reviews

As first time buyers, we were a bit overwhelmed with everything concerning buying a property - Neil helped us to understand everything from mortgages to finances to different insurance covers. Neil was amazing and supportive throughout the buying process, and was there to answer all our questions - nothing was ever too much trouble and we were never made to feel like an inconvenience. We will definitely use Neil for any future property purchases and we cannot thank him enough.

- Emily & Ben

My partner and I have recently bought our first home. Neil helped us understand mortgages, advised us on our finances, and also was there for us when we were unsure during the Covid-19 Lockdown which eased what could have been a very stressful time for us. Neil was brilliant throughout the whole house buying process, and was there to answer all our questions. We wouldn't go to anyone else and certainly will be back for our next property purchase, we recommend him to anyone who's looking to buy a property!

- Jake & Louise

Neil assisted me in securing a buy-to-let and residential mortgage. Even with the uncertainty and challenges during the Covid-19 lockdown Neil kept me fully up to date and his knowledge of the local lending market is fantastic. He certainly helped to make the process less stressful and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a mortgage.

- Rachel

We hadn’t had a mortgage for a while so needed guidance with not only the banks, but the process of buying the property which involved the advocates and putting in place life insurance, which Neil dealt with very smoothly. What made it even more difficult to manage was that most of this was done during the Covid-19 lockdown, but Neil kept us informed by email and documents were posted back and forth. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gower and particularly Neil for his patience and professionalism when needing a mortgage.

- Gary and Wendy

Neil has been our mortgage adviser for a number of years, having assisted with the purchase of our first home and more recently our second. Neil has made the whole process stress free, he is knowledgable, approachable and always on hand to answer any queries. We cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for a mortgage, thanks so much again Neil!

- Andy and Nat

Neil at Gower was recommended to me by a friend who had used him to obtain a mortgage and had found him very professional and helpful. I completely agree. I went to see Neil to find out what position I’d need to be in to obtain a mortgage and next thing I know, I’ve got one!

- JO

A family member recommended Neil to us and he has been nothing but great. We were always kept up to date and well informed with the progress of our mortgage and Neil was always available to answer any queries we had. Would highly recommend Neil to any of our friends and family.

- Emma and Nick

Neil's guidance and support has been exceptional. He is incredibly knowledgeable, explaining all parts of the process thoroughly and clearly. We would highly recommend using Neil's expertise for a stress-free property purchase! Thanks Neil!

- Mr and Mrs Ford

Neil was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and offered us guidance through each stage of the property process. He looked at our exacting requirements and secured us the best deal. We will be recommending Neil to our friends and family.

- Mr and Mrs Wadley

We have come to Neil/Gower on two occasions when purchasing properties and their service has been nothing short of excellent. We do and would highly recommend the team to anybody needing their services!

- Mr M and Mrs J Bichard

Neil at Gower arranged a mortgage for me when my personal circumstances at the time meant I wasn’t even sure I’d be able to get one. He was extremely patient and understanding and negotiated with the bank on my behalf to secure a mortgage which is both affordable and suited to my needs.
