Since then the company has grown and diversified into a national brokerage employing over 200 people, with offices in multiple locations across the UK, Channel Islands, and internationally in Hong Kong, Singapore and Dubai. Our diverse expert teams offer a trusted service across mortgages, insurance, protection, commercial finance and financial planning.

Would absolutely recommend SPF

Jack was exceptional from start to finish. He was so quick and efficient. When we were met with various stumbling blocks along the way Jack navigated them with humour and patience and ultimately proceeded in successfully securing us a mortgage with favourable conditions.

Would absolutely recommend SPF (and we have multiple times!).

Excellent service

Tasha and Daniel arranged our recent remortgage and provided an excellent service. They were always available to assist and advise with the admin which turned out to be quite complicated. They responded to every query immediately which I've never had with any of the (many) other brokers I've used. I highly recommend SPF - and Daniel and Tasha in particular.

Jack & Erin were amazing!

Jack & Erin were absolutely amazing, spending time and a lot of effort to make sure we got the best deal, and were by far the most responsive party throughout our house purchase process. Really appreciate the help, and we will definitely reach out again when we need to remortgage.

Outstanding Service from Brandon and Kitt!

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Brandon and Kitt for their exceptional support in securing my first overseas loan! Initially, I felt apprehensive about the process, but Brandon's calm demeanor and confidence provided me with the reassurance I needed. Kitt was incredibly helpful throughout my application journey, guiding me step by step.

I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly I received my offer letter, which was a huge relief! Their support didn't stop there; they were always available to answer my questions and reminded me of the necessary steps to take until the completion and handover of my unit. I truly appreciate their dedication and professionalism.

Our experience with Matt Wilde and the SPF team was absolutely perfect all along the process. Not only Matt was able to identify and select the best possible offers on the market, but he also perfectly understood our particular needs and was able to tailor the product and the advice, which were always strategic, well thought and pragmatic.
His strong connections with the relevant financial institutions and deep knowledge of the UK market made the difference. Finally, the fact that he understood perfectly the specificities of a transaction to be made by an overseas investor was very much appreciated. He is clearly at the top of the brokers.

Ed W was very helpful and clear when explaining the process to me, which made my first house purchase far easier. I intend to use SPF in the future when it comes to remortgaging.

SPF will find you the best Mortgage offer available

Best terms available were presented by SPF and we were very happy with the service received. I dropped 1 star from my rating, as the after service was not as good as the initial stages (had several emails unanswered, and they remain unanswered to this date).

Thank you for your outstanding work

I wanted to say a huge thank you to both Ayrton & Paige for the absolutely excellent service throughout the entire process of securing our new mortgage.

The level of professionalism, dedication and hard work was second to none .

Everything from the first online meeting, understanding our needs, explaining the options available to us, keeping everything coordinated and moving quickly especially through the compliance procedures was first class.

You both made a complex process feel smooth and stress-free and would highly recommend your company to anyone.

Thank you again for your outstanding work.

Many thanks

Frank
