Couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the beginning, Gary kept us updated and was transparent through the entire mortgage process. I highly recommend Gary. A great service in securing a mortgage!
Go above and beyond
Garry Smith is by far one of the best advisers ( I say adviser because he is more than a 'mortgage adviser') I have ever come across. He is informative, pragmatic and patient - I have been working with him over a period of time and due to changes in my work etc - the goalposts for obtaining a mortgage have moved. Garry has made each step easy - he has calmed me down and lifted me up and as a single woman I have valued his help so much. He is also incredibly knowledgeable about providers and the market. I don't recommend using him - you just must - he is brilliant. Thanks so much for everything Garry.
We are first time buyers
We are first time buyers. Garry dealt with my case and was fantastic throughout. I was able to get my mortgage offer. We were very clear and transparent with each other. Thank you again and definitely recommend Garry Smith
Complicated Mortgage dealt with ease by Kia
This was our first mortgage and it was complicated due to few things, but thanks to Kia we got through it all no trouble, Kia was straight onto everything and helped us over every problem and there was a few due to it being a complicated situation. Kia always went above and beyond in helping us and we can not thank her enough as without Kia we would not have our mortgage, would definitely highly recommend to everyone
Garry Smith - The Extra Mile
As a first time buyer the whole process of buying your perfect home is daunting to say the least. Without the help and guidance of Garry Smith i would have given up a long time ago.
Garry's passion, commitment and willingness to go the extra mile made dreams come true and made the process easy, enjoyable and rewarding.
Positive experience with Kia at FAC.
I have been using FAC for a few years now when sorting a mortgage and life insurance. I have recently moved house and for a number of reasons it took quite a few months to complete. Kia was great throughout the period, always on top of things and making sure I was getting the best deal and she explained the technical details of the mortgage clearly and simply (which I needed). She also managed to sort my life and critical illness cover. I will be contacting her again when my mortgage is up for renewal.
Garry had been patient and supportive…
Garry had been patient and supportive throughout the whole process as we were older clients and needed to have things explained to make informed decisions - He has found us a brilliant deal tailored to our needs at this time in life and to help our children in the process - which was our dream and wish . He's fantastic
Kia was great
Kia was great. Very helpful and made the remortgage process really easy
Great experience with kia
Was referred over from a friend and I couldn't of asked for a better experience. I was nervous quite of the cost of living crisis but kia reassured me of everything helped me pick the best deal out and locked it into place 3 months prior to my deal expiring. Kia was on hand for any questions I had and was responded to quickly and efficiently. If I could of giving more than 5 stars I would! Would definatiy recommend

Garry from Finance Advice Centre
I was recommended Garry from Finance Advice Centre by my close friends when they heard I was looking to move. The service I have received has been truly excellent. Garry is friendly, approachable and professional. He has helped me navigate the daunting process of applying for a mortgage and getting everything set up with minimal stress. His approach is honest and considerate and with just the right level of contact to keep in touch and keep the wheels in motion. I would 100% recommend Garry in the future- Thank you
Yogesh Parekh
I recently worked with Yogesh Parekh for my buy-to-let mortgage, and I’m delighted with the exceptional service he provided. From our first conversation, it was clear that Yogesh is both highly knowledgeable and dedicated to finding the best possible deal tailored to my needs.
Yogesh took the time to fully understand my goals and financial situation, explaining all my options in clear, straightforward terms. His expertise in navigating the complexities of buy-to-let mortgages was invaluable, and he identified a deal that not only matched my requirements but exceeded my expectations in terms of rates and flexibility.
What I appreciated most was Yogesh’s proactive approach—he kept me informed every step of the way and worked tirelessly to ensure the process went smoothly. Even when there were challenges, he handled them swiftly and professionally, always putting my best interests first.
Thanks to Yogesh, I was able to secure a competitive mortgage with minimal stress. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and approachable mortgage broker. I will definitely be reaching out to him and the team at Finance Advice Centre again for any future mortgage needs!
Thank you.
