Patrick went above and beyond!

We did NOT have an easy time getting a mortgage for our recent home purchase, but Patrick went above and beyond in finding a lender and navigating their seemingly endless barrage of requests and delays. He'll be our first call in two years when we need to remortgage!

5 * service from Clifton Finance

I've used them in the past; I've used them recently and I would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

My thanks to Scott at Clifton Finance, who has been very helpful in my requests for securing bridging finance for purchase of a holiday home overseas. He is always quick to respond to enquiries and has been very helpful with clearly explanation the process.

Bridging

Simon was a fantastic guide through the bridging maze. Came up with a very good offer and was so calm, organised and professional throughout keeping us up to date at each stage.
Although we could not complete on this property we would have no hesitation in recommending Simon.

A GREAT EXPERIENCE!!

From start to finish my broker Dylan was on hand dealing with my application. He kept in touch, responded with lightening speed (unlike others who I've had to keep chasing) and communicated very well. The outcome was positive.
I am so pleased I found this company and will 1000%
be using their services again.

Excellent service - nursed me through what seemed scary…

Simon was really helpful in guiding me through a process which was new to me. Although bridging can sound scary, it can be an invaluable and speedy resource.

He was very prompt and patient, returning with clarifications and amends to the offer - several times. Definitely consider using Simon and his business again.

Professional and helpful broker

My experience with Clifton Finance has been very good, my broker was helpful, attentive and always quick to reply to queries and I had many of them as it was quite a complex bridging loan for an old property in Cornwall, I would definitely recommend them!

live chat is just a reception can be replaced by AI, they can answer you all info on their website. First email wait for days/week replied with no clear info, waiting for weeks second/third email with no reply, even you want a big fish you should reply. Unacceptable!

Outstanding Service Despite a Challenging Case

I've been communicating with Paige for over a year as I explored options for a bridging loan. Although we ultimately couldn't proceed due to the property's construction, I highly recommend her. She has been consistently lovely, helpful, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. Her support, patience, and clear communication made a complex situation feel far more manageable. I truly appreciate her dedication and kindness throughout the whole process.

Simple property financing

I consulted Clifton Private Finance about a Bridging Loan for my property flip. They found a product that gave me a really good rate. Everything about the finance was explained in clear terms that were easy to understand as a first-time property investor and the costs were presented succinctly.

I would highly recommend Joshua at…

I would highly recommend Joshua at Clifton Private Finance. After being let down by previous broker for BTL mortgage due to poor condition of the property we were in the process of buying, we contacted CPF and Joshua helped us navigate through a bridging loan to secure the finance for our property. He was constantly in contact with us, answering any questions and keeping us updated throughout the process. He was very knowledgable in this field, polite and took the time to explain best options for our circumstances. We would not hesitate to contact Joshua at Clifton Private Finance should we need a bridging loan in the future. 1st class service

Simon went the extra mile and then some

Really great to work with Simon on arranging bridging finance for house purchase. He was very patient, clear in explanations, and went the extra mile connecting my solicitors with Precise's solicitors to make the exchange happen and expediting details that were not in his work scope. Very grateful I did this route as the first agreed sale on my existing house fell through in the chain, and working with Simon guaranteed we got the house we really wanted. Highly recommended.
