Aren’t we all searching for that Financial advisor who seems driven by a deeper integrity about what is good for you, rather than having one eye on their own potential commission? Andy is someone I’ve known for years as a man of impeccable character, and now he’s a heavily qualified financial advisor, him becoming my trusted go-to-guy is a move that I am supremely happy with. I feel he’s genuinely interested in building me a happy and long term financial future, and that’s exactly what I am looking for. His advice is both solid and creative and I’d trust him with my life. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

We honestly couldn’t recommend Oakwood Mortgage Services Ltd enough! Kate has been incredible throughout the whole process from talking us through our options when we first contacted Oakwood to getting our mortgage offer. She has been there every step of the way answering all our questions (as first time buyers we had a fair few) and reassuring us along the way.She always is happy to go above and beyond to make sure the process is as easy as possible! We couldn’t have got through this without her and cannot wait until we get the house & are able to share the news with her! Thank you so much Kate! Will definitely be recommending you! - Alice & Guy!

I wholeheartedly recommend Jake Ward for his outstanding mortgage advice and unwavering support. As a first-time buyer unfamiliar with the UK mortgage process, Jake's patience and detailed explanations were invaluable. His recommendation of an excellent conveyancer further streamlined the journey. Even after my mortgage was approved, Jake continued to follow every step with dedication and attention to detail, ensuring a seamless transition. His commitment to excellence and ongoing support make Jake Ward a standout professional. I am grateful for his expertise, thorough guidance, and the exceptional experience he provided throughout the entire home-buying process.

Oakwood Mortgage Services has been nothing short of fantastic, and I can't thank Dave enough for being brilliant through the process. His expertise in mortgages is impressive, but what really stood out was his genuine and patient approach. Dave took the time with us, answered all our questions and made the entire experience surprisingly stress-free.

Kate has been brilliant with helping me to work out how much I can raise for a mortgage. Going through a divorce is tough enough, and Kate has been proactive with answering my emails in a timely manner and getting back to me with the answers I have needed to work out my financial situation. She has made the whole process stress free and done it in a friendly manner too. Thank you.

Richard and Emma were incredibly helpful in sorting out my mortgages at a time when mortgage rates were fluctuating wildly, even to the point of replying and working on my applications whilst he was on holiday to ensure that the quoted rates didn't expire.Very good customer service and very informative about the different options available to me, will definitely be recommending them and using them again.

We contacted Kate at Oakwood Mortgage Services, to help us find remortgage solutions for our buy-to-let properties. She has been superb in cutting through the mortgage minefield, and so far has helped arrange a new fixed rate deal. As well as being responsive to any queries we have, her friendly, approachable manner makes her a joy to work with, and we're confident she will continue to find us the best mortgage deals, even in these challenging times.

It's a tricky time to get a Mortgage, but Dave Pearn at Oakwood was excellent in his approach to getting our daughter's first mortgage. He was friendly and professional with his timely and clear communications. He guided us every step of the way and I would thoroughly recommend Dave and Oakwood Mortgage Services Ltd.

Stuart and team have just completed our remortgage. We were obviously after the best rate so the process started early due to current changes and the fluctuating market. Stuart kept on top of the best rates for us, securing one rate, suggesting we wait, and then finally securing an even better one at the last minute. Very helpful and informative throughout the process. Would highly recommend.

I feel very fortunate to have had Jake assisting and supporting me throughout my journey as a first time buyer. Jake was extremely professional and genuine, taking time to explain the basics, ensuring I felt empowered and confident in my decision making. Jake went above and beyond, taking the time to provide updates and to offer reassurance throughout the buying process, offering knowledge on alternative products such as conveyancing, pension and investment advice. I felt truly valued and respected by Jake and his team and would thoroughly recommend Jake to friends and family needing similar services

We were recommended Oakwood by a friend and couldn't be happier we took their recommendation. Stuart Jacob, Emma Claydon and Mike Black in particular were a pleasure to deal with, and they always went the extra mile to help and advise when circumstances changed or we weren't sure what next steps were - which as first time buyers was invaluable. Would give them 6 stars if I could!

Stuart and Emma at Oakwood were amazing throughout the whole house buying process. They were non judgemental and supportive at every stage. As first time buyers the process seemed overwhelming at times and with out their support and guidance we wouldn't have made it through to collecting the keys. Thanks again guys.

Our advisor David helped us with all aspects, he was extremely patience and made what is a difficult process as simple as possible. It has been our dream to own a home for many many years and Oakwood Mortgage Services helped make this dream come true. Thank you.

I contacted Oakwood for advice on a mortgage, they were professional and quick to respond but most importantly treat you like part of the family and not a client. Super friendly to deal with.I absolutely would recommend them and would not hesitate to contact them again on other matters.

Richard at Oakwood has been helping us with our various mortgages (our home and buy-to-lets) for years now and we couldn't be more happy with the service. He is quick and very patient with us. He always takes time to look into our options so we feel confident about making informed decisions. One of the best things for us is that Richard gets in touch months before a mortgage is due for review and quickly and painlessly gets things sorted. I highly recommend Richard and Oakwood.

I would like to say a huge thank you to Oakwood Mortgage Services and in particular to Richard Burley who seems capable of working miracles, particularly when dealing with the complicated applications of a sportsman. Richard’s calm manner and problem solving have been brilliant over the years and allowed both Katie and I to stay relaxed and in control during stressful house buying moments, as well as helping us to navigate the the complex buy-to-let market! We owe a huge debt of gratitude to Richard and Oakwood mortgage services ahead of moving house next week, and I would highly recommend their services. In particular I would recommend them to other sports people who have previously struggled with mortgage companies based on our short contracts and the potentially volatile nature of our work. Thanks again Richard. Ben and Katie

I gave Stuart at Oakwood Mortgage services a challenge of finding me an impossible mortgage. I knew I wouldn't get exactly what I wanted, but he came up with some nice surprises. He explained everything, not pushy at all, a friendly and professional approach. Thank you

We were first time buyers and dealt with Richard around the mortgage application. He helped us understand each process, explaining everything thoroughly and came to meet us twice where he was very personal and efficient. Dave took us through the building and contents and life insurance process, again coming to meet us in person and took us through the options, step by step. Dave was very communicative and answered any questions we had.Emma was there throughout this process and on hand with any urgent queries we had and was a delight to deal with.They managed to make it all happen, even during lockdown!Highly recommend Richard, Dave, Emma and Oakwood. We are very happy in our new home!

I have worked with a number of the Oakwood team over many years and they are all excellent and totally professional at what they do. Dave came to our family home a few years ago to discuss and advise us in terms of financial insurance. He was very knowledgeable, really easy to talk to. Sometimes discussing financial things can be quite tricky to understand, but I felt at complete ease with Dave. I would highly recommend speaking to him if you need insurance or even need a mortgage as he covers both areas. Thanks for all your support Dave. It's always good to have someone who has your back!

The team is very friendly, professional and knowledgeable on their given subject. My situation was rather unusual and my options were very limited, if i had tried on my own i wouldn't have found the best deal for me. The information provided to me was well presented and insightful, if anything was unclear they made sure that i understood things fully. In the end they found the best deal out there that ticked all the boxes i needed and went above and beyond. To make sure i wasn't put into a position i couldn't afford to be in Stuart would go to an agent and tell them when things weren't possible, even when they were insistent on getting a deal, Stuart had my back in it!I can't recommend them enough, and will be returning to them down the line myself!

Top notch service. Friendly, prompt and accessible no matter where you are based (I'm in the Highlands). Much better service than that experienced by local face-to-face advisers with a large portfolio of companies that ensure you can get the mortgage to suit your needs. Have happily referred to others in less than usual circumstances, all of whom have come away delighted

Highly recommend. We were first time buyers and Stuart made the process simple and efficient. We found our property and made an offer on the spot, but the agents needed to speak to Stuart before stopping further viewings, so he dropped everything whilst at a conference and the rest is history. Buying a house is an emotional time, so having the mortgage element handled by a professional, yet down to earth person like Stuart was invaluable to us. Thanks Stuart.
