Gerry is an absolute star. Money things tend to set off anxiety attacks for me, but Gerry keeps things simple, straightforward, and in terms I can understand without going in to a blind panic. He has helped me make the best.mirtgage decisions for myself and my family three times now, and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Absolutely recommend 👍
Gerry has been fantastic and made what could be a stressful & complicated process a breeze. He has been on call to answer any questions my wife & I had and done all the leg work to get us the best deal possible.
Gerry & Laura are 10/10. Genuinely wonderful service. Friendly and supportive. I shopped around a lot and they definitely found the best deals. Knew their way around NHS pay scales & temporary contracts, specific for my mortgage including green mortgages. I would recommend to anyone joining the property ladder for the first time or remortgaging. Best thing of all at time of writing they charge no fee for NHS workers! Thanks again for all your help
Couldn’t be happier with the service I received from Gerry when renewing my mortgage. He made everything so easy, answered all my questions (no matter how small), and kept me informed every step of the way. It was great to have someone independent who genuinely had my best interests at heart. Highly recommend!
Gerry was fantastic throughout the whole process and I couldn’t recommend him enough, especially if you are a first time buyer and need some handholding! Gerry guided us through different mortgage providers, terms etc and made everything easy to understand. Great service!
My experience with the Independent Mortgage Store was first class. Gerry was 'on it'; friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. It made the complicated process of buying my first flat so much easier, and I will use this service again for remortgaging in the future. Thank you to the team!
Would highly recommend Gerry from the Independent Mortgage Store, he was very knowledgeable whilst we were taking out a new mortgage and remortgaging at the same time. All queries were responded to promptly and offers were confirmed very quickly.
