What our clients say
My wife and I asked Paul at PAD Financial to help us change our mortgage provider and we were very happy indeed with the service he gave us. Since then we have had no hesitation in passing Paul's details onto other people looking for a professional, personable approach from a local IFA.
Paul is sharp and proactive and I look forward to working with him again!
PAD Financial have provided me with Mortgage advice for the purchase of two residential properties in recent years.
On both occasions the advice I received was excellent resulting in me obtaining highly competative interest rates on my repayments.
A usually complicated and confusing process was made simple and easy to understand.
PAD have subsequently advised me on numerous other financially related matters and have never been disapointed with the service or results I have received.

I have been very impressed with Paul, he has done an excellent job in helping me secure a
right to buy mortgage where no one else could. He has been very patient with me and
understood all my requirements and explained everything very well, I would highly
recommend him to anyone else. Nothing has been too much trouble for him and I greatly
appreciate all his help.
Paul managed to find a solution to funding my development project where other mortgage
advisors had failed. It was a challenging and time consuming project for him which he
delivered on time and for the original quote.
I would happily recommend Paul to my friends and family
I've really enjoyed working with Paul to secure the best possible mortgage for me. Right
from the beginning I've had absolute confidence in Paul and his approachable manner made
me feel at ease asking 'silly' questions as I'm a first time buyer. Paul is straight talking,
efficient and willing to go the extra mile to offer a helping hand in the house-buying and
mortgage sorting process and I'm so glad I've had his support in doing this, it's certainly
taking the stress out of securing a mortgage and I'll definitely be using his services again
when it comes to remortgaging. A fantastic service and excellent advice from a thoroughly
nice chap; I would certainly recommend Paul to friends and family.
Myself and my partner cannot thank Mr Dorward enough for his help in finding us a
mortgage to suit our requirements and situation. He went over and above to help us at every
stage and thanks to him we now have our new home. If only he could have been our
solicitor too! Excellent friendly service and I would definitely (and have) recommend him
to anyone.
Paul provided clear and comprehensible information, made a complex process really simple for us, and crucially provided advice & guidance based on experience. We'd use his services again and would recommend to anybody.
Paul was absolutely fantastic in supporting me through the process of getting a mortgage. I
found him to be extremely knowledgeable and he went above and beyond to try to secure me the best possible mortgage deal, even when this created additional work for him. Paul was accessible and the lines of communication were always open. I felt that he really listened to what I wanted and needed and took this on board to ensure that the 'best' deal was the one which was personalised to my needs and thus 'best' for me. When terms or language used by the mortgage companies was confusing, Paul was able to communicate the situation in a way more appropriate for the 'lay person'. The house purchase took five months and I felt that as Paul supported me throughout, I feel I got real value for money. I would certainly recommend him to friends and family.
Buying a house. *. Bought the house.
Purchasing a new property requiring a small mortgage. Paul found us the best deal on the market that suited our budget and repayment needs, he did this for two properties (one sale fell through), all for one fee, handled all the paperwork and answered all our queries promptly and fully - as well as keeping us calm throughout the process. Successful completion of property purchase and mortgage, so yes.
I have worked with Paul on various purchases of Property from outside the UK and he has been outstanding in terms of responsiveness, obtaining great deals and most importantly getting me what I want. Paul has also advised me on pension matters and setting up trusts. I hold Paul in such high regard he is used by members of my family and friends.
Paul provided a full and comprehensive service throughout two purchases of properties; from an informal chat before we were ready to even look for properties to the day of completion, he was always on hand with advice and options, keeping us informed on all aspects of the process.
He does his best for your Financial situation and was sincere and genuine in his dealings with me I felt and would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him to friends and family.
I thought Paul provided me with a fantastic service. I was recommended Paul by a friend and when I initially got in touch as a first time buyer, he was very happy to talk through the overall house buying process and steps which, while not directly relevant to giving me mortgage advise, it really helped me. Once I had found the property, Paul was highly responsive and helped me to get the mortgage application taken care of within days. He was proactive at following up and when the legal process turned into a saga he was happy to help where needed. I couldn't recommend Paul highly enough. He was by far the person who most helped the house buying process be easier for me!
