Exceptional service.

I have nothing but praise for Buckingham James Financial Services Ltd. As a first time buyer (buy to let) I had no clue what I was doing but with their help I have found the whole process professional, informative and most of all - Stress Free. The communication and support has been exceptional and I will definitely be using them again in the future. Perfect

I would recommend Buckingham James every time!

Buckingham James provide exceptional service. Being a first time buyer and securing a mortgage the process can be very daunting but their knowledge is incredible and they always explain everything in detail. They found us the best deal and they are really responsive. I will use them every time my mortgage comes up for renewal now, can’t fault them.

So helpful with buying our first home!

James Buckingham was amazing in helping us buy our first home. We did not have a clue about the process when we first contacted them through recommendation from a friend and found their knowledge and support so helpful! They was with us each step of the way explaining them in terms we would understand!! I felt that they went above and beyond and will definitely be advising friends and family to use them!

Very highly recommended, excellent service

We were introduced to Buckingham James initially by a friend when purchasing our house a couple of years ago.

We found the service, knowledge, support and communication from Brian our Mortgage Adviser was excellent. We’ve since done our remortgage through him and again, it was excellent.

We intend to stick with Buckingham James into the future with remortgages etc. We really felt like valued customers and nothing was too much trouble.

We’d thoroughly recommend Buckingham James to anyone. A friendly, efficient, reliable and personal service that takes a lot of the stress of mortgages/remortgages away.

Would highly recommend!

Buying our first house would not have been as easy (especially during Covid!) without the fantastic service given by Buckingham James. Our advisor was always on the end of the phone or email ready to answer our questions. We felt so at ease and supported throughout the entire process!

Don’t go anywhere else- this is the real deal!

As nervous first time buyers we were referred to Brian and the team at Buckingham James with more than a little skepticism. From the outset we realised that this was a team we could trust with what is incredibly sensitive information. No hard sell, clear communication, a can do approach with a good dose of realism Brian explained all our options and the path needed to get where we dreamed of being, even during a global pandemic!
We were kept up to date with every single step and I asked every silly question there was but was never made to feel like this was stupid or too much effort for someone to explain.
Even when the mortgage lender made a pretty hefty mistake Brian and the team fought incredibly hard to have this fixed as quickly as possible, we felt completely represented and knew we could trust them to have it resolved. If you are thinking about trusting the team with your next/first purchase please do so, don’t go anywhere else, it won’t be as easy and straightforward.

What an amazing service!

I simply cannot recommend Buckingham James highly enough. I have bought and sold properties before and have never felt that I needed a mortgage broker but after the outstanding service I recently received from Buckingham James, and in particular Brian, my opinion has been forever changed. Brian helped us through an extremely stressful house purchase in a calm, professional and reassuring way. I was amazed at how quickly he was able to push everything through and his support through the whole process eased our stress and worries immeasurably.

There isn’t a single doubt in my mind that I will be using Brian for all my future broker needs, be it a remortgage or a property sale / purchase. I guarantee that anyone using Buckingham James Final Services will not be disappointed.

We won the contract race because of Brian.

I would highly recommend the services of Buckingham James Financial Services Ltd. I was initially sceptical about needing a mortgage broker, preferring to put in the research myself. However, I was recommended Buckingham James Financial Services Ltd and more specifically Brian.

Hiring Brian was by far the best decision I could have made.

Brian was able to provide us with the ideal mortgage and ensured that the process was flawless. The time from application to mortgage offer was an incredible 12 days and that is solely down to Brian’s hard work. Brian continuously chased up all relevant parties to help get this set up quickly and later on in the process was able to push the solicitors too.

Brian certainly took a lot of the stress out of the house buying process, his knowledge, expertise and professionalism has been exceptional and he had complete commitment in our house purchase.

If you have any doubts about using a broker, put that aside and appoint Buckingham James.
