I've used Scales Porter for about 7 years now after Tony was recommended to me by numerous friends of mine who had used him serveal times throughout the years. I am very happy with his service, he is knowledgeable honest and someone you can speak freely with to achieve the best outcome. He has gone above and beyond to ensure we complete in time (when third parties ie: solicitors were not performing or taking any accountability - he has always stepped in and got us through to the finish line! - grateful to have him who have our backs) - Very pleased with him and his team and will continue to use his services - highly recommend.

As first-time buyers

As first-time buyers, my partner and I received exceptional service from Scales Porter. They guided us through the market, managed our expectations, and provided clear, reassuring answers throughout the process. The team was transparent about every step of the journey, which took around six months and involved several complex factors. We moved into our new home at the end of July 2025, and during that time, we had many questions. Their patience, kindness, and support throughout such a stressful and complex process were truly amazing. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and finally being in our home. Thank you to the entire team at Scales Porter! I highly recommend their bespoke services delivered by real, personable people.

Very supportive mortgage brokers

I had a really good experience with Scales Porter. They were very friendly and explained things in ways I could understand. Their work is very thorough and they always kept me so updated with what was happening. Linda especially was so supportive throughout and I will also be having further conversations about insurance as well. Thank you again to the team for all your support. I would highly recommend them!

Scales Porter - professional and nice

Scales Porter have been excellent. In brief: professional, quick to respond, honest, they even chased issues on my behalf, and just nice to deal with in general. I will absolutely be using them again and am happy to recommend to anyone. I have interacted with several people at the company and all have been courteous, professional, and nice.
In my case Scales porter have proven to be particularly useful in managing an issue with the lender valuation, as well as helping manage the transaction along.
Five stars.

We had an excellent experience from start to finish with our remortgage process. The team provided clear communication, answered all our questions promptly, and made the entire process stress-free. Their professionalism and attention to detail were five star and we felt well-supported every step of the way. We will definitely be returning for any future mortgage needs and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a smooth and efficient remortgage experience.

Highly personalised and effective mortgage broker service

Scales Porter offer a personalised and highly comprehensive service. They've worked hard to secure the best deal on mortgages on four occasions, and each time have gone the extra mile to understand our circumstances and overcome any obstacles. Would highly recommend.
