About the company

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

People seeking mortgage advice, remortgage support and pension guidance feature prominently among those who have dealt with this Brighton firm, and the feedback points to a consistent pattern of knowledgeable, responsive service. A number of customers describe James McCreath as approachable and direct, giving proper consideration to individual circumstances before offering recommendations. A recurring theme is the clarity brought to complex or stressful situations, with reviewers noting that potentially complicated processes such as buying a first home or refinancing were made straightforward and hassle free.

A number of reviews mention quick replies to questions and concerns, along with guidance that reflected their interests rather than a generic solution. The team, including Robin, comes across as efficient and genuinely invested in clients, with one account describing a long-standing relationship in which pensions were arranged and investments subsequently monitored so that capital held steady through retirement. Attention to the right option for each person, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, appears across the accounts, and trust built over years of repeat contact is a common thread. Mortgage refinancing and pension planning recur as the concrete areas of work described.

James McCreath has been very helpful, explaining to me clearly my pension options as I approach retirement. I am happy to recommend him as a financial advisor.

A friend recommended James McCreath for financial advice after using and benefitting from his service and expertise for a number of years. What I liked about James was that he came across as very open, direct and genuine. His initial assessment was to evaluate whether I could benefit from engaging his services or not on the basis of reviewing my baseline pension situation. He came to the conclusion that at this point other than general advice (which he gave freely as to what steps to take) it would not be in my interest to engage his services further and highlighted when this might change and what options this would present for me. I would not hesitate to recommend James

James McCreath helped me to combine a number of pensions that I had accumulated over the years into a fund that is currently performing way beyond my expectations. I first contacted James during a period of uncertainty in the financial markets and he made sure that I didn't transfer my pensions into his recommended fund until it was right for me. I don't have time to manage my finances to the level required. I trust James to maximise my funds potential and provide a concise summary when required.

James at McCreath Financial Partners recently helped us with our remortgage, and I couldn't be more pleased. James was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He provided really good guidance, responded quickly to my questions, and made the experience stress-free. I highly recommend James at McCreath Financial Partners for anyone seeking reliable and expert mortgage advice.
