We highly recommend Orange Frog Mortgages! Amanda was fantastic. We were first time buyers and she was very patient and answer all our questions. She quickly found a very good mortgage deal for us. Thanks to her, buying our first home was much less stressful than what we expected.

Amanda was absolutely brilliant - she made every part of finding a mortgage easy, explained everything carefully, and was very supportive. Despite several purchases falling through and the process taking a long time, Amanda was always patient and always responded incredibly quickly to my queries. The fees are really low given the amount of stress that Amanda took off my shoulders! I would absolutely recommend Orange Frog Mortgages.

Amanda of Orange Frog Mortgages has been my guiding angel through the whole process of finding the best loan for me. It took me more than two years to find the right property and Amanda was always helpful and available. Thank you Amanda!

Amanda at Orange Frog has been brilliant. She is so helpful and available to give advice whenever needed! During what is a very stressful time buying a house, she has been on hand to reassure us and resolve issues speedily. We had an offer accepted on a house a couple of days before Christmas, which meant everything promptly shut down and we could not get the house shown as Sold STC (fearing the worst in a surge of property interest that usually follows in that period). Even though she was on leave at that point, Amanda responded and assured us she would have our Mortgage in Principle completed

I contacted Amanda in a bit of a panic, as my existing mortgage offer was expiring and my lender would only extend it for 20k less than the first offer. following a change in their rules. She did incredible work sorting me out with a new offer, including solving an interesting, non-standard problem with the new lender's desktop valuation in between, in two weeks flat from first contacting her. Having been recommended to this company by a friend myself, I will definitely continue the trend of recommending OF to others!
