Lauren Day Amazing Mortgage
We have been coming back to Lauren Day for years now to help us with our mortgage. The support and guidance Lauren gives us is fantastic. I would recommend Lauren to anyone looking to secure a mortgage. Thank you for all the help you give us.
Amazing service!
I was referred to Brian Coles by a friend, and I’m so glad that we used Brian for our first house purchase! He was super generous with his time, responsive and very knowledgeable about the whole process and any questions we had. He was able to assist with making the right decisions and was always willing to help. Thanks so much Brian!
First time buyer review
As a first time buyer Jack was amazing, he was patient with me and all my questions, gave expert advice and helped me secure my mortgage. Went out of his way to help so would definitely recommend choosing to go with him.
10/10
Rob Plaistow has made my remortgage so easy and clear, I remortgaged with him 2 years ago and now doing the same again and im always confident he will find me the best deal and support me through the process and keep me up to date along the way. Great communication and clarity over the whole process
Great service from a great adviser!
Was recommended Jack Easton by 2 people at work and he has been great from start to current and I’m sure he will be until the end and beyond. He’s made a buying journey for 2 first time buyers so easy to understand. He’s communicative, honest and upfront with his clients best interest at the forefront. Highly recommend!
I am very happy with Ben Cornish
I am very happy with Ben Cornish, he helped us get a mortgage. we found it very difficult to find our way through this process, but I was very happy to find some one who could guide us through this process and I think that Ben is an asset to your firm.
5* service again with Ben Cornish…
We have worked with Ben Cornish consistently over the last 4 years and if I’m honest we wouldn’t use an alternative broker now. He is very accommodating to our needs. Clearly explains everything in details and takes the time to show us a range of options and products available to us at the time. This time he came to see us in person which was a great opportunity . I would highly recommend Ben for all mortgage broker needs

Excellent Service
Kallum at HQMF has assisted me with setting up a second mortgage as well as remortgaging my first mortgage, for the first time. The knowledge and service provided has been excellent throughout with Kallum ensuring that he puts the clients interests and experience at the forefront of the process at all times. I will be remortgaging in H2 this year again, and I know exactly who I will be calling to assist me in the process.
The best out there
Amazing service as always, helped me secure my house originally when purchasing and have done my remortgage every time since. Brilliant customer service with everything clear and precise. Rob Plaistow has helped keep everything easy to understand, doing the best by me and my family every step of the way. I would recommend HQMF every time and would go anywhere else.
Life insurance
After a “hiccup” our life insurance search was passed onto Damien who proactively resolved the previous issue and found us a suitable product.
Lauren Day - asset to the team x
We are in the process of selling & buying a bigger home & Lauren day just makes the whole process so much easier & reassuring. She is super informative & helpful, & explains everything fully, always on hand to answer any questions and to support with any decisions we make. I know i can reach out to Lauren whenever I need to and she always responds quickly, which when buying a home, its nice to know someone is always at the end of the phone to run things through if needed! I have family members who have used Lauren in the past when buying homes and have all had really positive experiences start to finish! We would recommend lauren to anyone!
5⭐️ Service - wouldn't go anywhere else!
My husband and I have been using Rob Plaistow as our mortgage advisor for over 8 years, and we honestly couldn’t recommend him highly enough. He is absolutely fantastic and consistently goes above and beyond, no matter the day or time, making the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Rob is incredibly knowledgeable, reliable, and supportive, and nothing ever feels like too much trouble. We have complete confidence in him and wouldn’t go anywhere else — highly recommend!
