What our clients say
I was looking to refinance a property and also sought general advice around my finances. Mr Kazmi was professional and extremely knowledgeable in assisting me and outlining all the options available to me. Having worked with a number of finance professionals previously I found Mr Kazmi's service outstanding, everything went to plan and exactly as explained and advised by Mr Kazmi. Literally could not fault or change any element of the service.
I have worked with Syed for a number of years. Most recently, Syed helped me refinance 6 mortgages in one go and got me the best deal available. I was affected by the recent PRA changes and had no idea I wasn’t able to simple remortgage as I had done in the past and as a result I needed an adviser who understood the inner working of Mortgages and was fully up to date with regulations as well as being able to get me the best deal! Extremely Happy.
Having recently purchased a property I wanted to see if I have adequate protection in place to protect my home and income so if the worst happened or if I lost my job I would still be able to continue making mortgage payments. Syed introduced himself, outlined his services and guided me through each stage. He provided me with a competitive quote. Syed spent time getting my full understanding which is why I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
A recent family event had prompted me to approach Syed who has been highly recommended. Syed has helped to provide sound professional and impartial advice. He helped to understand my needs and was able to highlight areas of interest and find practical solutions from a range of suppliers. I can easily say the outcome has over exceeded my expectations and it would be difficult to find any fault with Syed. I’m very happy and will continue to use his services.
I have recently used Syed's services after being recommended by a family member. My main mortgage was due for review and after meeting Syed not only was I able to secure a much cheaper rate but I also discovered my buy to lets were not tied into a deal so I was able to review them also and secure an even better rate across my portfolio. The whole process was effortless, and from the outset Syed kept me updated at each stage right until each mortgage completed. I am beyond happy with Syed's services and we have already booked in our next meeting to review my other properties.
Syed helped me save over £1200 per month on my mortgage! I was having a review when Syed noticed my mortgage payments of over £2000 per month showing on my statement and immediately questioned this, and quite rightly so! After the review, we realised the rate was 5.99%. Straight away Syed was able to take control and managed to secure a rate of 1.79% fixed for 2 years! Still can't believe I'm now saving over £1200 per month!
I was looking to re-mortgage my home and decided to look for someone who was able to provide me with the best rate and great service. After speaking to Syed this exactly what I got, the best rate and great service! Syed sourced me a great fixed rate mortgage and while completing his review offered me an unbeatable home insurance quote which saved even more money. The process was relatively straightforward and I highly recommend his services. I’m very happy and can honestly say Syed was very helpful and communication was regular throughout - I was informed by phone and email at all times.
I needed financial advise as I wanted to buy a property. Syed helped me as he is really knowledgeable on all aspects of the home buying process. He was always available to answer my questions and never to busy. I really felt like Syed was trying to get the best deal for me and understood my personal circumstances. The experience was personalised to what I wanted and what was important to me. Even after initial conversations and suggestions of which provider to go with Syed still kept an eye out for new deals available and got me a better deal than what was available on day one. The outcome was definitely what I hoped for. Honestly, I don’t feel Syed could have done anything differently. I was really happy with the whole experience and would definitely use him again.
