I dealt with Jack, he made the whole process so smooth and explained everything to me. I would definitely recommend him, as a first time buyer I didn’t know how anything worked but Jack made sure I understood everything each step of the way

Oscar L.

As a first-time buyer, I was very fortunate to have Greg at Strive Mortgage as my mortgage broker. Not only did he handle my mortgage efficiently, but he also took the time to explain the entire conveyancing process to me, which really put me at ease. Even during the conveyancing process, he continued actively searching for a better deal for me, which I found incredibly impressive. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Salour H.

Jamie from Strive Mortgages was super helpful when I was applying with my mortgage and went through EVERYTHING with me very patiently and offered many options to me. I highly recommend their services.

Rowan E.

Jamie was amazing - his knowledge enabled me to get the best option for my financial situation as a solo first time buyer who was also self-employed. Super communicative and efficient, would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to buy!

Patrick B.

Jamie provided excellent and responsive support and guidance. I would definitely approach Strive again in the future.

Richard B.

With so many costs associated with buying a home we were initially against using a mortgage broker so decided to do it ourselves and ended up with an agreement in principle offer from Natwest so we decided to put an offer in on a house - which was accepted. When we went to apply, however, they rejected us so we reached out to strive who were able to get us a mortgage (with Natwest, no less). Greg was professional and reassured us he'd get it through from first contact - and even managed to put us in contact with a solicitor after ours let us down 6 weeks into the process. To add to it, the interest rate Strive managed to secure was less than we were initially expecting, saving us thousands in the long run, meaning the initial £300 we spent on Strive was well worth it.

Sophie B.

Greg was incredibly helpful, so easy to contact, efficient and helped us find the best deal. We were so grateful for all of his help. Thank you!

Adriana F.

I had a great experience thanks to Jamie. Being a first time buyer I had no idea what to expect and he took the time to walk me through each step and how much it would all cost me. All the way until completion Jamie was there to answer any questions I had. Even though my initial mortgage expired due to the process taking so long, Jamie promptly got me a new mortgage offer sorted with the same bank. Thanks to this I was able to complete just before the year ended. Thank you so much for all your hard work!!

samira I.

Both Jamie and Greg were amazing thought the whole home buying process! Me and my partner were both 1st time buyers and both Jamie and Greg took so much time to go through everything with us and show us all our options, more than any other mortgage advisor we spoke with! They got us a brilliant deal on our mortgage and I could not recommend them enough! Thank you to everyone at Strive mortgages!
