Very pleased with Pembroke, Paul in particular was incredibly helpful over a couple of in-person meetings and then numerous emails to select a mortgage and get the application completed. My previous experience of other brokers was not great, they were pushy and tried to sell me overpriced insurance on top. But Pembroke were not like that. I had many questions about various things (interest-only, retirement mortgages, risk etc) and Paul listened to what I was trying to achieve long-term and advised me on what’s feasible and what to avoid for now. He and Julie found us a good deal for our initial remortgage, navigating a bunch of issues with different lender’s requirements. I’m pleased I went with a broker, to guide me through this – worth every penny. I will be back next time I need to change mortgage.

My partner Caroline and I recently bought our first home, and we really cannot overstate how helpful and reassuring Pembroke were throughout the whole process. Without Paul and Julie, our contacts at Pembroke, we probably wouldn’t be moving at all. Paul got straight on the phone with us at the start of the process, managed to explain each step in a really informative yet simple way, and was extremely patient with our various ‘first-time buyer’ questions and emails. Paul found some great mortgage deals for us, explained the pros and cons of each element (like the length of our fixed-rate term), and gave sound advice that made us feel comfortable and prepared. We would thoroughly, thoroughly recommend Paul and the team at Pembroke to anybody, especially to first-time homebuyers.

Julie was so helpful, professional and efficient and worked very hard to get us the best deal Thank you so much for all your hard work I really appreciate it.

Would highly recommend. A very efficient team always ready to help and answer any questions.

I have been dealing with Paul Grennan and Julie Ward for a mortgage that has not been entirely straightforward. Frankly, I am so impressed by the service I have received, that I felt compelled to drop you a line. I have not been this impressed or this happy with customer service for a long time, and you should know that Paul and Julie are an asset to your business. It was not just the positive result I was happy with, but also the fact that I was called when a promise was made to call me, emailed when a promise was made to email me and kept informed at every single stage.  Paul and Julie are friendly and knowledgeable professionals. Top-class customer service has become a rarity in many service industries, so it’s good to know that I chose well, when I chose Pembroke.
