I recently used AS Financial service's to secure a mortgage for my first home. They were diligent, efficient and professional from start to finish they made what could have been a stressful process a simple and straightforward one. I can recommend in particular James Dennett, who was my broker, and Donna Clarke, who handled completion.

I have used AS Financial for a number of years now - to help advise with financial planning, broker mortgages, and arrange health cover and life insurances. I have found the team there - especially Saul Conway and Esther Francique - to be knowledgable, professional, friendly and helpful. I would strongly recommend AS to anyone seeking financial guidance.

I would highly recommend using AS Financial. James Dennett has helped me with 4 mortgages over the past 6 years, from first time buyer to remortgaging to buy-to-let. He is extremely knowledgeable, offers excellent advice relevant to your circumstances, and always makes himself available to help. Any hurdles we've come across have always been overcome with a solution that James has found. The excellent service extends to the rest of the team with Steph Dalziel most recently helping us complete the process with very prompt and informative updates.

Cameron and Kyle have been amazing throughout our mortgage process. From promptly dealing with all our requests and constant questions, to going above and beyond to get us the right deal, all while keeping a super friendly and positive attitude. Would highly recommend them to anyone especially those doing this for the first time (like us) who need a bit of extra guidance!
