Fantastic Team
Expert advice, clearly explained and a pleasure to work with.
I was wanting to turn my current residential into a BTL and then buy a second property as my main residence. This meant two separate dealings with mortgagesforyachtcrew.
Every step of the way with Clare and the team was fluid and transparent.
Thanks again for all of your help. You made it so much easier than trying to do it myself.
Unbelievable Service
From start to finish I received outstanding service from Mortgages For Yachts Crew. Clare Viner was my principle mortgage adviser and she guided me seamlessly through the mortgage process with which I had very little knowledge. I can't thank her enough for what she did for me. I will, without hesitation, be using Mortgages For Yacht Crew again.
Excellent service
Clare, Lynsey and the team were excellent from start to finish with the process of completing my house purchase. They made everything simple and easy! Highly recommend!
What can I say! Awesome
What can I say! Clare, Lynsey the team at mortgages for yacht crew were brilliant. We got our keys today and the process from start to finish was quick, stress free and communication was all ways there.
Thank you so much 😊
My first time buying a house
My first time buying a house. Clare and the team were fantastic from start to finish. Everything was handled with such ease. Everything handled in a calm and professional manner and always there to answer any questions. Would highly recommend and most certainly use again.
So easy and simple!
This was my second property and I was really struggling with how to figure out the best way to do it. Clare made it so simple and easy and I thought I would only be able to get a 80% mortgage but she managed to get me a 90% one. I cannot recommend this company enough, I have already told all my other yachtie friends.

Mortgages for Yacht Crew has been excellent. Clare was extremely diligent, nothing was ever too much trouble. Clare gave a brilliant personal service and excellent tailored support helping us to find the best mortgage to suit our needs. Honestly can't recommend them enough.
Fantastic experience with Clare!
Clare was very approachable, full of advice and knowledge and generally a really lovely person to work with. She made me feel very confident in buying my first property :)
Great service!
This is the 2nd time I have used Mortgages for Yacht Crew. Clare and her team are extremely helpful and super efficient. This is great when you are out of the country as the communication is great and its one less thing to worry about when buying a property. Would highly recommend.
Excellent Service
Excellent Service
I used MorgagesForYachtCrew to obtain my residential mortgage. I dealt solely with Clare Viner and the service I received was excellent!
Clare was not the only mortgage broker that I used, during the early part of the process however, it was her expertise with regards to salaries in international currency, that meant that I was able to borrow that of what a non-seafaring person, earning £s could. Other reputable brokers said to be able to provide the same level of service but fell down at point of providing a ‘mortgage in principle.’ It was only thanks to Clare that I could obtain the home I wanted.
Clare was very reliable, easy to reach and very pleasant to deal with. She nurtured the process from start to finish. Due to her strong relationships with lenders, she was able to expedite parts of the process.
Clare, together with my conveyancer, helped me to exchange contracts within three weeks and complete in four.
Clare was recommended to me by three friends and colleagues and I’m happy that they did. I highly recommend her services.
I’m a first time buyer
I’m a first time buyer. I found the service quick, personal and informative. Having a professional at the end of the line takes the stress out. All my questions were answered and I’d definitely recommend this service to my friends.
FANTASTIC SERVICE
Fantastic service! Clare at Mortgages for Yacht Crew seamlessly and successfully assisted me to secure two mortgages all while I was still working overseas. Professional, efficient and everything I was looking for. Thank you, Clare! 10/10
Experience was great, friendly team & quick responses
Definitely recommend Mortgages for Yacht Crew. The whole experience was great, friendly team, quick responses and no nonsense advice.
We tried speaking to a few mortgages brokers that didn't normally deal with seafarers and found it to be very difficult to get anywhere.
Within hours of speaking to Clare we had receive an email with rough details on how much we could borrow and what was possible. Since then the whole process has been very easy and I will 100% be using them again.

Clare was super helpful and lovely throughout the whole process and made it all run so smoothly! I can't recommend them enough!
very pleased with the service provided
Clare was super helpful and understanding of my situation.
If you need to take a hands off approach due to work commitments on a boat then this is the service for you.
Great company, I will definitely use them again for my next house purchase
I’ve been using the services of the mortgages for yacht crew team through the minefield that is buying a house.
Their help has been invaluable throughout the whole process from advice on our financial situation at the beginning all the way through to home insurance at the end.
The response to emails and phone calls is always very quick and the advice is always very good, and they have a great knowledge of the hurdles yacht crew have to go over that can be different to normal peoples applications.
A special thanks had to go to Clare, who has been my point of contact throughout the whole thing, she has been fantastic.
Fantastic service and really friendly staff
Fantastic experience using Mortgages for Yacht Crew. It was my first mortgage and the process was made very simple and well explained by everyone involved. Had constant contact with my advisor and she helped and answered all my questions no matter how relevant they were. I will definitely come back when needing another mortgage and I have already recommended these guys and girls to a few friends and will keep on doing so.
I cannot praise Clare Viner highly…
I cannot rate Clare Viner ( Mortgage’s for Yacht Crew ) highly enough.
Having had several mortgage's over the years, working with Clare was by far the most stream less.
She is fast to respond, incredibly helpful and extremely professional.
My partner and I were looking into…
My partner and I were looking into buying our first house and Clare was passed on to us along with another couple of mortgage brokers.
Clare was the only one that understood my job and only approached lenders that did too. Just over a month gone by and we have moved into our first house today. She was always contactable and responded to all emails very quickly. Any questions and uncertainty we had was quickly answered and explained well.
Service was outstanding and we had a lender in just over a week.
Highly recommended for any yachties struggling and would certainly use again!
Many thanks Clare Viner, all your help has been much appreciated 👍
Seafarer with very limited time in the UK.
MFYC were excellent and efficient. 4 weeks from offer to completion facilitated by their good advice and speedy service. Will be using them again.
