First Time Buyers

Deniz was fantastic throughout our mortgage process. As first-time buyers, we were nervous and had lots of questions, but he was incredibly friendly and made us feel at ease from the start. No question ever felt too silly, and he took the time to explain everything clearly.

He was also very proactive - constantly checking the market for better deals and making sure we were getting the best possible option. In the end, he secured us a mortgage we didn’t even realise we could get. We’d highly recommend Deniz to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, supportive mortgage advisor. We couldn't have done it without him!

Highly recommend

Deniz was knowledgeable, helpful and responsive through getting a first time buyer mortgage and then again when re mortgaging 2 years later. He gives space to make your own decisions whilst sharing some of his appropriate advice to ensure you are fully informed. It was really useful that he was able to view all the lenders rates etc and I was reassured that I got the best deal possible. I recommend him to any friends and family who mention buying a house!

Support for first time buyer

I was supporting my daughter through her first flat purchase - But I didn’t need to as Deniz offered excellent advice and guidance throughout what can be a daunting process for a first time buyer. He relentlessly researched the mortgage market for the best deal and went over and above what we were expecting - offering encouragement, empathy, a sounding board and a shoulder to cry on. He offered a five star service.

Thanks for your lovely review, and more importantly, for trusting me with your daughter's purchase. I'm delighted to have exceeded expectations and see Luaren become a homeowner.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

An A*, faultless service!

I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better mortgage broker. From start to finish, Deniz was an incredible source of support throughout what turned out to be a very bumpy and at times disheartening flat-buying journey.

What stood out most was how invested he seemed in helping me find the right mortgage, always showing up with care, dedication, and reassurance. He took the time to really understand my circumstances and was consistently thoughtful and thorough in his approach. He monitored the market closely and regularly shared the best possible options tailored to my situation, never rushing or pushing me, but always keeping my best interests front and centre.

I very rarely (if ever!) leave 5-star reviews, but this one is more than deserved. An outstanding professional, and a genuinely kind person.

Brilliant service and super friendly

Deniz is extremely knowledgeable, responsive and friendly - he was always happy to discuss our mortgage offer, as well as finances generally and he made the process of buying our first house a much better experience than it would have otherwise been.

Couldn't recommend any more highly.

Deniz is absolutely amazing

Deniz is absolutely amazing. He has all the professional and up to date knowledge (especially in the recent ever changing house market), and the personal skills and attributes to make such a daunting time, also an exciting time. We would have not made the decision to buy our own home if it was not for Deniz and all the support and information he provided us with. We truly appreciated his patience with us when making decisions and changing our minds with a couple of things last minute. Thank you so much Deniz :)

I can't recommend Plato Financial Services enough

I can't recommend Plato Financial Services enough. This is my second time instructing them to handle my financial affairs and both times the efficiency, attention to detail, and customer service has been outstanding. On this occasion, I asked Plato for support with getting a new mortgage, with my current fixed term deal due to expire within three weeks. The end of this deal without having another one secured would have seen me move onto a variable rate which was more than double my current fixed term monthly payment and completely unaffordable. Less than 10 days later, Plato had secured a new fixed term deal with the best market rates, saving me a great deal of additional stress and expense. A process which normally takes 4+ weeks, at least. The managing director Deniz, is friendly and personable and takes time to make sure that everything clear, so that you are sure that you are making an informed decision at every stage. Plato's commitment to transparency and integrity comes through clearly. The whole experience was seamless and painfree. I'll be using Plato for all my future financial needs.

I can't recommend Deniz enough. He helped us buying our first home when we knew absolutely nothing about the process. From the first conversation we felt in safe and professional hands. He truly looked into getting us the best possible deal advising us every step of the way.
If you are looking for an advisor I would suggest to go with him without looking any further.

He also helped us to secured the best deal at the time and always response quickly for any questions and updates. He also explained me in details patiently about mortgage process and different options. I can recommend him confidently to any one!

I couldn't have asked for anyone better!

From the very first call I had with Deniz, when I wasn't even sure I would be able to get a mortgage, to completion on the purchase of my first home, he was AMAZING. There were no questions too stupid to ask or advice he didn't have time to give. Deniz guided me through every stage of the process, providing expert knowledge and advice.

I could not recommend Deniz more highly to anyone seeking a mortgage, and particularly to any first time buyers out there. I am certain that you wouldn't get this service from someone else. I felt as though Deniz was personally invested in my case: he was right there setting off the fireworks when I completed. Five stars aren't enough!!
