What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Fox Davidson Mortgage Brokers handles mortgage and home insurance arrangements, with customers frequently highlighting the firm's success in cases that other brokers had been unable to resolve. Several reviewers describe complicated circumstances, including a startup founder's employment status and a multi-mortgage project, where the team nonetheless obtained offers at competitive rates from high street lenders. Sarah, Steve, Wesley, Oliver and Angela are named repeatedly for their responsiveness, friendliness and professional manner, as well as for explaining options clearly and matching recommendations to individual needs.

Reviewers mention being kept informed throughout and guided through a process they found intimidating, with particular praise for how the team persisted when difficulties arose rather than giving up. Repeat business comes up often, with one client returning five times and others stating they would use the firm again. Something that features in review after review is the ease of the experience, described as effortless and hassle-free, and the sense of being in safe hands even when cases were not straightforward. The negotiated outcome itself, whether a completed purchase or a satisfactory rate, is credited to the team's knowledge and contacts.

We cannot recommend and thank Sarah and Steve from Fox Davidson enough for securing our mortgage. We had exhausted all options with our previous broker and it seemed we would not be able to secure a mortgage at all, until Sarah managed to secure not only a mortgage for us, but one with a great interest rate from a high street lender at exactly the conditions we wanted. Our case was particularly challenging due to the volume of the mortgage and my husband's startup business, and some other unexpected hurdles. Not only did the team from Fox Davidson achieve what our previous broker had considered an impossible case, they were so lovely and calming throughout the process, always picking up the phone and supporting us. I waited with this review until we had the keys in our hand, because I could not believe that we actually secured the mortgage and house until it was all signed. Thank you so much Sarah for helping us get our absolute dream home, for being so competent and supportive!

Fox Davidson were recommended to us by a friend when we were recently purchasing our new home in the Bath area. I have to pass this recommendation on to anyone needing an independent Mortgage Broker. Right from the start, they were excellent in every way. They provide a very responsive, friendly and professional service. We were guided through a range of mortgage and home insurance options, and they matched their recommendations to our specific needs. Legal and financial issues were dealt with clearly and transparently. They also provide a lot of hand holding and extra advice that ensured a smooth engagement with both the Bank and Insurance companies. Very satisfied customers! July 2025 Update. We have continued to use (and recommend) Fox Davidson over the years. We recently completed a remortgage and once again we received a very personalised, relevant and professional service from Sarah, Angela and Steve at F/D. They provided a good customized offering for our specific needs and following through until the mortgage was agreed. Helpful throughout. Really excellent service! Oct 2025 Update. Our remortgage exchange is finally completed and the FoxDavidson team remained available to help/advise (via phone and email) since July this year. I continue to be impressed by their personal 'hands-on' service and based on my experience will use them again in future as well as feeling very confident to recommend them to prospective clients looking to use their expertise as Mortgage Brokers.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah from Fox Davidson, she was very professional and extremely knowledgeable about the market. She worked with me to secure a port for my mortgage that literally saved me thousands. Sarah has amazing communication and the high standards and no nonsense approach were evident throughout her whole team. Next time I need a mortgage I know who I’ll be contacting!

Due to slightly challenging employment status (startup founder) we were really struggling to secure a suitable mortgage going through 5 mortgage brokers before we found Fox Davidson. Sarah was communicative, helpful and continually pushed to secure us the best deal possible, getting us to a pretty perfect result. Thanks so much for making it work when so many others failed/gave up!!

This has been the 3rd time using Fox Davidson over the years and once again we have not been disappointed! Wes and Steve have been a great help keeping us updated throughout the process of remortgaging. Our mortgage deal was thoroughly looked into so we knew we had the best deal around considering the current uncertainties! Very happy with the service and would/ have recommended to family and friends. Thanks again!

We have had a brilliant experience with Fox Davidson. Right from the start, we were presented with many options by Oliver, tailoring to our different needs and providing valuable advice that helped inform our decision making. He made the whole process very easy and hassle-free, taking the stress out of getting a mortgage offer. The options provided by Oliver were brilliant, at an excellent rate. Steve then ensured that the process could be ended in a smooth way, making a usually difficult and confusing process seem easy and simple. Would definitely recommend.
