The David Hewson Practice Ltd Reviews 40

I don't normally leave reviews (although I do look at them for things so I really should do it more) but I feel that this one is a must as credit were credit is due Kate walker has been exceptional with helping me and my family with a multitude of things. I've always found Kate to be honest , kind , considerate and above all professional. I see absolutely no reason not to continue using her services and advice because of the anovel. Kate walker thank you and just keep doing what you do so well.

I cannot thank Kate Walker enough for her belief in me 9 years ago. If it hadn't been for her support, I would have lost my home. As it is, my mortgage is almost paid off, apart from the minimum 2 figure balance, over 2 years early. Fate lent a hand in introducing me to Kate after my bank changed it's mind about it's support for me.

As two first time buyers we were naturally, quite anxious about the experience of finding the best mortgage deal for us along with completing a help to buy application. However throughout our entire experience Martyn went above and beyond to ensure we were always well informed about the process and our options when it came to applying for our mortgage and the correct cover. We certainly asked many questions throughout the process but Martyn was always easily contactable and answered all of our questions in an informed and prompt manner! Thank you for all of your help Martyn, it’s been such an easy process with your expertise!

I first started house hunting over 8 years ago and made contact with Kate around the same time. I didn't actually get to give her any business until I bought my first house this year (it took me a long time to find the right one!) but through out the failed offers and many house viewings she was there to give me advice and talk me through how things worked.

When I put in an offer for the house I bought this year she was (along with my solicitor) a central conductor in helping chase things up with the estate agent, explaining what would happen next, and calming my nerves.

She's worth every penny of her fees in terms of stress reduction and peace of mind. Not only is she excellent at what she does in terms of finding you a good mortgage, she really cares about her clients.

I recommended a friend use her services last year when they were buying a house, and received really good feedback from them about how happy they were with Kate's service.

If you want someone who will go the extra mile, respond promptly to your messages, and talk to you in plain English, Kate is your person.

I know buying a house is a big investment and money can be tight. But think about how much getting some good professional advice can save you in the long run, never mind the stress of thinking, did I get it right?

I particularly recommend getting independent mortgage advice if you are a first time buyer, as there is so much to think about when buying, this can be one thing you can then cross off your list.

I'm currently on a short term fixed rate deal, and will be going straight back to Kate when this needs to be reviewed.

Martyn found us the best deal and rates to suit our mortgage needs. Easy to talk to, he made us feel comfortable and at ease. He supported us throughout the process and went above and beyond to help when we needed it most. He was genuinely happy to help us and we felt like we were calling a friend for advice. We would highly recommend Martyn and we can’t thank him enough.

Kate Walker offers an excellent service with professional clear advice all the way through. You can rely on here experience and knowledge to provide impartial advice throughout and provides everything you need in the short term as well as planning for the future.

I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Kate Walker has gone above and beyond with the service she provides. To have things clearly explained, get reassurance and at such a fair price is something you cannot fault with her.
I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
I will not use any other person for these professional services in my lifetime.

We have used Kate Walker a few times now, she’s quick, efficient, great at staying in touch and updating and it feels like she goes out of her way to fully understand our needs and situation to get the best deal for us - we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and we’ll be using her again when our fixed term mortgage comes to an end :)

Kate Walker
Kate has been great. She has helped us with several mortgages now and also helped our children with their mortgages. She definitely goes above and beyond to help in any way.

We recently remortgaged our home with Martyn. He was always happy to help and easy to talk to, prompt response and great communication. Would definitely recommend and will be using again for any future moves/remortgages.

Kate has helped us with our first mortgage/home purchase, the whole process has been perfectly smooth and Kate has helped us with every query and question we’ve had. Even with the additional challenges of lockdown/working from home Kate has excelled and been on the ball the whole time.

We were both apprehensive going into the process but all our doubts have been settled and we are confident now. I would recommend Kate for your mortgage/financial needs, especially so if you are new to the housing market and looking for guidance. She will take the time to listen to all your needs and make sure the mortgage you are getting is perfect for you.

Thank you!

All Credit to Kate Walker
She has again triumphed and managed to sort out and complete for us our Mortgage renewal. Special thanks this time as it couldn't of come at a more testing, troubling and worrying period for her.
To be able to carry on through and work during this current period caused by Covid-19 is very much appreciated.
She has always acted in a very professional manner.Keeping in contact with us every step of the way with any updates or news. Many thanks Kate.
Speak with you in a couple of years time when we will be up for a review again.
Hopefully in better and easier times.
Keep Safe
Regards Peter & Teresa

Kate helped my partner and I buy our first house. She was always professional, helpful and reassuring at a stressful time. She is always prompt to act on requests and I was very impressed with the detail of the advice that she provided. I was also impressed by the level of support Kate offered after the dust settled on moving house, including helpful tips on wider legal issues and useful advice on plans for buying a bigger house in the future. Overall, very impressed. Thanks Kate!

We had an excellent experience buying our first flat with advice from Kate Walker. As first-time buyers we had so many questions and Kate was always very quick to respond or give us a call to talk things through. When we first started thinking about buying somewhere we didn't realise the value of a mortgage broker but Kate's advice was so much better than random googling and contacting lots of different banks ourselves! If we move in the future, it's great to know there is someone we trust at the other end of the phone. Great value service and we would definitely recommend her!

The process of sorting out a mortgage for me was made so much easier by the wonderful Martyn he made sure that everything was explained to me in language I understand-financial things confuse and bore me - but he has the patience of a saint dealing with my lack of knowledge. This man knows his stuff wanted the best took his time finding the right deal for me. He also has a great sense of humour which again made the process easier as humour is something I appreciate. I can’t fault this man great guy great service.

I first used Kate 3 years ago when she helped me get a mortgage during a messy divorce. She found me a brilliant deal on the mortgage along with life cover. She has since helped me re-mortgage, again getting me a good deal. Kate was always there if I had any questions during the application process, chasing up the mortgage companies if necessary. She is very knowledgeable of the products that are available and helped overcome some initial difficulties on my first mortgage. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Kate I couldn't have got these great deals without you!

Martyn dealt with our recent move. It was probably a bit more complex than the average for a variety of reasons but he was always enthusiastic to help us and was more than happy to break things down so we could understand everything easily. Very patient, calm, and knowledgeable through some difficult points in our move.

We would highly recommend Martyn South to anyone trying to find a mortgage, wanting to re-mortgage or to anyone looking for home and buildings/ life cover. Martyn helped us last year to find our dream home. Martyn spent no end of time with us in the comfort of our own home at the time that suited us looking into all of our expenditures thoroughly and exploring and explaining different options for us and offering support and guidance throughout. Martyn was also always at the end of the phone had we thought of any questions or support we needed. Even to the day of exchange Martyn was by our side checking everything was going well and even phoned our solicitors on the day of exchange to find out what was happening as we couldn't get through and were getting stressed out. Brilliant service from start to finish will certainly be contacting Martyn again when our mortgage is up for renewal.

Spoke with Martyn and very happy with the services provided. Answered all questions and gave us invaluable advice.

Would highly recommend.

We had a complex situation with our mortgage & life insurance and were unfamiliar with the whole process, everything was explained to us so we understood and it was dealt with very well. Thank you Martyn South!
