Simon was an absolute star as my mortgage advisor. He was incredibly helpful from start to finish, guiding me through every step with patience and expertise. Despite my own delays causing the process to lapse for over a year, he stayed supportive, replied lightning-fast to every question, and made everything feel straightforward and stress-free. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough, genuinely one of the best!
Thank you, Simon!

We had a very positive experience working with Simon during the purchase of our property in Spain. Everything was outstanding!

From the first contact through to completion, Simon guided us clearly and professionally through the entire mortgage process.

He explained everything very clearly from the beginning and walked us through the bank’s requirements and all the necessary documentation.

Simon also helped us arrange the valuation and inspection and was always available to answer questions. Communication was consistently transparent, prompt, and reliable, which gave us great confidence—especially as non-residents buying property abroad.

Moreover, the mortgage completion process was finalized ahead of the original deadline.

If you’re looking to buy property in Spain, we highly recommend Simon and Mortgage Direct to anyone seeking a mortgage in Spain.

Amanda was very helpful and provided timely information. She explained the process clearly and followed up with both our lawyer and the bank in Spain throughout the buying process.

We had a very positive experience working with Simon and Mortgage Direct during the purchase of our property in Spain.

From the very first contact until completion, Simon guided us clearly and professionally through the entire mortgage process. Communication was always transparent, fast and reliable, which gave us a lot of confidence, especially as non residents buying property abroad. He coordinated smoothly with Banco Sabadell and all other parties involved, and ensured everything stayed on track.

Thanks to his expertise and commitment, we achieved a great outcome and the whole process felt well managed from start to finish. We are very grateful for the support and would highly recommend Simon and Mortgage Direct to anyone looking for a mortgage in Spain.

Thank you again for all your help.

Second mortgage process with Amanda, having sold the previous property. Would highly recommend, we had mortgage offers from four different banks and could choose the best one with confidence. Amanda also helped us with arranging a valuation and survey, and was always available for questions. Fantastic.

Mortgage Direct helped us secure our Spanish mortgage and we would recommend them to anyone looking to arrange a mortgage in Spain.

This was the first time we had bought a property abroad and our situation was fairly complicated, so having someone on our side to navigate the mortgage process took a lot of the stress out of it. Will, with support from Emma and Thais, worked very hard to find a provider willing to offer us a mortgage. He explained everything clearly from the start and guided us through the banks’ requirements and all the documentation involved.

The team were always available to answer questions and were supportive throughout. While we weren’t able to secure as large a mortgage as we had initially hoped, we were able to obtain one that allowed us to purchase our property — which we couldn’t have achieved without their help.

We’re very grateful to Will, Emma, Thais and the wider Mortgage Direct team for their support, and we’d happily recommend them to anyone planning their move to Spain.

This company sucks !

And the bank CAIXA they work with sucks too.

It worked very well to obtain a mortgage with SANTANDER bank without the help of anybody.

I lost more than 12 months trying with Mortgage Direct .

Just amazing, just amazing. Could not have asked for a better outcome.

Prospective mortgage seekers, exercise extreme caution before engaging with Mortgage Direct SL. My unfortunate experience serves as a stark warning for anyone thinking of exploring the mortgage process with this company, but choose not to proceed.

Upon Jacqueline Moulen's recommendation (who has since left Mortgage Direct), things started off well. To get more details on the process, I signed their terms and conditions and paid a retainer fee, a reasonable step. However, once I decided not to move forward with buying a property in Spain or Portugal, things took an unexpected turn.

Shockingly, despite not delivering any of the services promised in their terms and conditions – like document processing, translations, bank account opening, property valuation, or recommending legal and real estate services – Mortgage Direct SL refused to refund my retainer fee of EUR750 plus 21% VAT, or even part thereof. Just to be clear, none of these promised services were provided. I ended up with just one email listing the required documents and a brief overview of the mortgage process. Hardly worth the EUR1000 fee!

Crucially, Mortgage Direct SL retains the entire payment, around EUR1000, even when none of the promised retainer services are delivered. This willingness to keep money for services not provided reflects a serious lack of integrity and professionalism.

While Jacqueline Moulen showed professionalism and helpfulness initially, dealing with Vera Simão (who took over from Jacqueline) and the Business Operations Manager, Lorenzo Saccardi, was far from satisfactory. Their focus on financial gain over client satisfaction left me extremely disappointed.

In summary, if you are not completely certain whether to pursue the mortgage process after initial exploration, think twice about Mortgage Direct SL. Their refusal to refund a substantial retainer fee for undelivered services is a glaring sign of unscrupulous business practices. Look for more reliable alternatives in the mortgage brokerage industry to protect your financial interests.
