Ben York was a pleasure to work with

Ben York was a pleasure to work with. He brought to us a wealth of knowledge of the market and products and worked hard for us to bring the best deals to the table. He was always contactable and kept us in the loop during every step.

He was proactive in contacting our solicitors and estate agents and was always pushing to get completion as soon as possible for us.

We will definitely be using Ben’s services again in the future and could not recommend him highly enough.

The best service. Highly recommend.

Ben is absolutely fantastic at what he does! He is very down to earth and easy to talk to which makes the experience so much less stressful. He works really hard to get you the best deal and will chase up left, right and centre until everything is in place. I recommend him to anyone looking for a or renewing mortgage!

Couldn't fault the service

Ben was really helpful when I remortgaged my house. I'd been on a fixed rate which was coming to an end.
He responded to queries quickly and I was kept informed as to what was happening at each stage.

Ben York at Chamelo is the only advisor you’ll need

Ben York at Chamelo couldn’t have done more for us from start to finish. We required a bespoke product that wasn’t available off the shelf from high street lenders. Ben was able to find exactly what we wanted and made the process clear and stress free, all at an extremely competitive rate. Prior to completion we were provided with a walk through video from Ben explaining the product and terms in detail. We won’t be using anybody else again and I couldn’t recommend Ben more.

Ben was so informative and knowledgeable while working on our mortgage application. He was always a phone call away to answer any questions and worries we had. As one of us is self-employed there was quite a few obstacles in our way applying for the mortgage, however Ben helped us with every step of the process and got us both the best possible mortgage. We were so happy with the service Ben gave us during or mortgage application and would highly recommend him to anyone!

Fantastic service

When applying for our mortgage we were recommended Chamelo by our estate agent. Ben York was our mortgage adviser from Chamelo.

All I can say is that he was brilliant. The communication form him was excellent. When going through the mortgage he made a video which explained broke down the information for the mortgage applicaion. He put things into such a way that it was easy to understand. He was always prompt to reply, always polite and curteous. He provided regular updates of the application process and progress of our purchase. He even helped us with organising life insurance. It felt like he really cared for us as clients and I feel like the service that Ben provided went above and beyone what I expceted from him.

Thanks to Ben from Chamelo we are now happy in our new home.

I absolutely reccomend Ben and Chamelo and will use them again when it comes time to re-mortgage.

Ace from start to finish!

Sam at Chamelo has been ace from start to finish! He has helped us to understand the housing market and has made the process of buying a house so much less stressful than it could've been. Sam's advice has been invaluable and really made the process so much smoother, finding the right mortgage for us, keeping us informed and pointing us in the right direction for other things we have needed such as house and life insurance. He has been responsive, friendly and super helpful, I highly recommend! Thank you Sam!

Best in the business

Ben showcases the importance of using a mortgage advisor and what a fantastic one he is. From the moment I met Ben I could tell he was different, he spent time learning about my requirements, future goals in relation to my property and current circumstances. Ben was keen to explore all options and go through with me the pro’s and con’s of each based on my bespoke needs. Ben was able to secure a product that ticked all the boxes and took away all the stress that can come with the process. Throughout the process Ben kept me informed and was proactive and efficient ensuring there was no speed bumps along the way. I would highly recommend Ben York to anyone who needs support with their mortgage as you will not be left disappointed - once again Ben, thank you for all your hard work and for guiding me through the whole process in a friendly and professional manner.

Very informative

As a first time buyer, Ben guided me through the entire process, making sure I knew all of the ins and outs.

He was very responsive and always had time to explain aspects in further detail if needed and was very knowledgeable.
