What our clients say

I first met Claire 10 years ago, when she starting writing a financial column for Latest Homes magazine. I originally used her services to help with arranging various personal mortgages and for buy to let advice, and I found her to be extremely knowledgeable and helpful about the market. In recent years she has become my family's sole personal financial advisor and helped us simplify and maximise our investments and pensions. Over the years she has become a trusted advisor and friend and her clear, straightforward advice has proved invaluable. I would not hesitate - and indeed have - recommended Claire to many friends and work colleagues.

L Edwards, Hove

Having recently changed IFA to Talk Money we must say that it has been a revelation to have matters explained in language that we can understand. We have been impressed with the personal service and advice that we have received together with the ongoing manner in which we have been kept informed of developments.

Mr M & Mrs S Perry, Crowhurst

Claire has been a financial advisor to family members for several years and mine for over 10 years. I am confident that she has securely and safely placed all my investments in the most suitable holdings for my needs. Claire is easily contactable, whether to obtain advice, details of current investments, prices or values. She is always positive and ready to help when needed. Despite the market, my investments with Claire have increased significantly in value, created an income and generated meaningful dividends.

Mr and Mrs Plant, Christchurch
