Damian Youell
I've used Damian twice in brokering my deals and he has delivered efficiently and very quickly to the highest standard. A great professional with great knowledge around lender providers and rates, efficiency throughout the application ( four weeks from application to equity release). His communication has been spot on even via text messages which people nowadays totally ignore. I highly recommend anyone looking for a broker to use Damian. He will not disappoint.
I hope to use him again in the near future
Damian flawless professional.
I've used Damian three times brokering my deals and he has always delivered to the highest standard. Consummate professional with great knowledge around lender providers and rates, efficiency through the application ( four weeks from application to equity release) and second to none communication.
Will continue to use in the near future 👍.

Thank you for all you do you’re a credit to the industry

Andrew Haigh was our Mortgage adviser when looking to remortgage our house recently. I’ve got to say he was excellent. He delivered a highly proficient, knowledgeable, professional and committed level of customer service. We got a great deal through him and everything was explained really clearly throughout. Would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking at mortgages in the future.

Andy was fantastic
Andy was fantastic, helpful, informative and reassuring through the process of our first mortgage, nothing was too much effort. Myself and my husband could not recommend him enough!
Damian is great
Damian is great. He helped us get our first mortgage and was very efficient and professional.
He has emailed us in advance of our fixed term ending and has got us sorted for the next two years.
Highly recommended
First class service.
I recommend Andy Haigh without reservation.
He exceeded my expectations in the speediness and effectiveness of his work for me. Andy quickly grasped my circumstances and needs, and he very promptly found the right mortgage for me and acted without delay in securing it for me. His follow-up was impeccable, and he responded calmly and effectively when there was a minor hitch with my conveyancers. He combined friendly approachability with reassuring professionalism.
Brilliant service
Brilliant service, so helpful, knowledgeable and quick to respond. Will definitely be using again for the next move!
5* mortgage services, would highly recommend.
I recently required some mortgage advice and Damian Youell at Needing Advice was recommended to me. I have found Damian helpful, pleasant and efficient in ascertaining the best mortgage product for my situation. The process has been painless and executed with lightning speed and therefore I wouldn't hesitate to use this service again.
If you are looking for a high quality…
If you are looking for a high quality adviser, no need to look further!
Andy Haigh is a top notch mortgage broker and financial adviser! He was very professional and efficient in helping us to secure quickly a mortgage with a competitive interest rate. Andy works extremely hard to deliver what he has promised. He has very flexible support hours i.e. you could call or text him to ask a question in the evening or over the weekend and he would always pick up a phone or promptly call/text you back. Andy has a pleasant personality, is easy going and ever patient :)
Thanks Andy I am grateful for your help!
First time buyer recommended
We’re first time buyers and getting on the property ladder was quite daunting, especially the mortgage market. Damian made the whole process easy by doing all the searching for us and getting us the best deal. Looking forward now to getting into our first house. Thanks Damian.
Andrew Haigh .. if Carlsberg did mortgage brokers
Andrew Haigh is by far PLATINUM when it comes to mortgage broker services. The mortgage industry can be complex, overwhelming and confusing but Andrew has that rare natural talent you see very rarely these days. Andrew articulates things easily and effortlessly. His revert time is impressive, he does what he says and when he says it and makes the stress of house buying stress free. Andrew you an absolute legend and I would recommend you time and time again. You walk the talk and set the bar as the poster child of customer service and what a mortgage broker should be. Ladies and Gentlemen look no further is my advice !
I recently wanted to change my morgage…
I recently wanted to change my morgage deal and wanted advice so I contacted Damien he was very professional and got us the best product to suit are needs.The whole process was done quickly and was very easy would recommend anyone wanting help with there morgage .
Andrew Haigh is a financial guru!
Andy is fantastic. He’s communicative without being pushy and highly responsive to all forms of communication - even when very random questions occurred to us at ridiculous times of day and night. Andy has the patience of a saint, our financial knowledge is limited but he never once got exasperated, patronising or showed any hint of annoyance. I can honestly say if not for Andy we wouldn’t have bought our first home - we went from “can we afford to buy” to having an offer accepted within three weeks. We have an affordable mortgage (less than we paid to rent!) and that’s thanks to Andy. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andy to anyone and everyone and we will definitely be using him again. Thank you Andy!
