I found Warren Bailey to be a very helpful and knowledgeable advisor when I discussed with him the potential options for a retirement mortgage . He had contacted me within a day of my seeking an initial conversation with him , and he reassured me there were lenders out there who would consider a mortgage paid out of pension , despite my own bank nort even talking to me as I was over 70 ! Within a couple days Warren had led me through the onboarding process , had explained what documents were needed and had found me a lender suited to my requirements. An excellent experience, and I would recommend him strongly to people looking for a retirement mortgage, and generally . Victor Abrams

We would have given them 20 stars. Both Warren & Lizzi have worked so hard on our behalf, in what has not been the smoothest of circumstances. They have been so professional and kept us updated. Would thoroughly recommend this company. With grateful thanks in getting us our mortgage.

I would highly recommend UK Money Man, especially Matthew Collinson and Paula. They have done an amazing job for me from start to finish. My previous mortgage broker got my application declined through TMW, and I was very stressed and worried. When I came to UK Money Man, they completely changed the game for me. Matthew was always helpful, professional, and kept me updated at every stage — even on his day off. That level of service really meant a lot to me. Paula was also fantastic and worked hard on my application. Thanks to their hard work and support, my mortgage was approved. I truly appreciate everything they have done for me and my family. I would definitely recommend Matthew, Paula, and UK Money Man to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive mortgage broker.

UK Moneyman provide an excellent service, in my case with complex conveyancing. Simple upload of documents, excellent comms and friendly. They took time to understand my needs and to explain options and prov8de illustrations of what I was agreeing to. Fee was reasonable and transparent with no hidden traos or surprises. When things were not quite going as expected (loan provider not UK moneyman this was sorted quickly and efficiently. I would thoroughly reccomend them if you are looking for a mortgage, especially if what you need is not quite standard. Warren and Lizzy did the work, thankyou both...

I had a great experience working with Leo and Jo as my mortgage brokers. As a first-time buyer, the whole process felt quite daunting at the start, but they provided clear and helpful information from day one, which really put me at ease. They were always quick to respond to my emails and kept everything moving smoothly, regularly following up and making sure nothing was missed. A special mention to the moment they called to let me know my mortgage offer had been approved. It made the whole experience feel exciting and personal, rather than just transactional. I’d definitely recommend Leo and Jo to anyone, especially if you’re a first-time buyer looking for guidance and support throughout the process.
