What our customers say

"I've used WEM on several occasions for a range of products and have always been impressed with the quality service provided. On the most recent occasion, Jol's pro active approach in reaching out, sourcing a mortgage offer and locking it in at no risk prior the disastrous financial statement saved us thousands, and may well have been the difference of affordability to stay in our current home or having to move."

Billy Moss

"Jolyon has been amazing in helping us secure our first mortgage. He is super experienced and an excellent communicator. We had a bit of a complicated case and he very pro-actively advised us on the best course of action"

A Romanica

"Jolyon and team were unbelievable, they took our mortgage case which another broker failed miserably on, and got it fully across the line in 3 weeks during Covid lockdown. The team helped on our credit files, they helped on the best rate at the banks and also sorted out all the insurance etc. Jolyon and team respond quickly and give a personalised service. They even would respond out of hours with any needs we had. Highly recommend these guys we are ..."

It was a long process due to our situation and was complicated, but nothing was too much for the team and they kept going with us until we were ready to go ahead.

Amy Hemsley

"West End Mortgages have been fantastic in supporting us through the process of finding and applying for a mortgage (+ buildings and life insurance) for our new home.

"We used West End Mortgages for our recent flat purchase, and couldn't have been happier with the service!

He took all the stress out of getting a mortgage - I'd highly recommend."

Ishani

The team helped us every single step of the way, patiently and professionally. It felt like all we had to do was ..."
