Mortgage Adviser recommendations..


Recommended Posts

London & County are great - we had a tricky request ie partner starting new job, me freelance and vendor wanting a 4 week completion, they handled everything and we got a better rate than going direct to the mortgage provider. http://www.lcplc.co.uk/ Our guy was Robert Gibb
Lee Francis from Francis Stone is a lovely chap, lives in East Dulwich, and helped us get a brilliant mortgage deal last year. Definitely worth getting in touch with him - I've recommended him many times. You can email him on [email protected] or phone 020 7654 7975. Good luck!

Interesting to hear all the positive feedback for L&C.


We used L&C and had a very poor experience. In the initial consultation I specifically explained that I wasn't a British National and asked if this would be a problem. I was told it wouldnt be and he would ensure that he wouldn't use any banks or building societies where it would be. The mortgage that was recommended was from a small Northern building society which I'd never heard have. We had the deposit and qualified for the mortgage but 5 weeks into the process he told me that we'd been declined as I wasn't a British National. The whole deal almost fell through because of this as the vendor was getting extremely restless. I felt that L&C were very pushy in selling mortgage and contents insurance as well. They were calling me several times a week trying to sell me products that were no used to me if the deal didn't go ahead!


I ended up dealing with Halifax directly who were brilliant. Sorted everything in 2 weeks and able to offer me a much better rate than what L&C had initially found for me. I much preferred dealing dirtectly with the bank as I was able to find out exactly what was going on without using L&C.


Good luck with your purchase!


Good luck!

    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…      
    • Nice that the drinks have started up again. I used to arrange them when they first started and I met some good friends through them. We used to get 30+ people going at one point. The karaoke night at The Wishing Well was very memorable!
