Staci was absolutely first class in helping me reviewed my finances and put me in the best place for house hunting and applying for a mortgage. She was available to help at any stage in the process and made sure buying my first property was simple and easy. She did a great job and I’d recommend Staci and First Mortgage to anyone else.

Suzanne was extremely helpful
Suzanne was extremely helpful. She has helped us before with our remortgages and this time was no different. Extremely efficient and kept us updated until the mortgage offer was issued.

Absolutely brilliant experience with FirstMortgage from start to finish. Extremely helpful and couldn’t have made applying for a mortgage any easier.

Very good service
Very attentive and thorough service from Marica and Stuart. My second time using First Mortgage Tollcross and would use them again
Absolutely brilliant company
Marc Smith at First Mortgage was absolutely brilliant. I couldn't have got a mortgage without him. I'm a first time buyer with a slightly complicated income and a few credit hiccups in the past. I was also buying at auction! He managed to get me a mortgage with Barclays, and my dream of owning my own home finally came true! Mortgage application to acceptance was 13 days, and I completed purchase in 56 days. Honestly, I can't recommend this company enough! I did it all over the phone and email, so it was really easy too. 100% excellent!
Absolutely amazing experience working…
Absolutely amazing experience working with Calum at Holborn street made the whole experience super simple and easy to understand and helps you when ever you need it.
First Time Buyers - Edinburgh
My partner and I have received excellent service from First Mortgage throughout our house-buying journey.
As first-time buyers, we initially found the mortgage process quite daunting. However, everything was explained to us carefully, clearly and in a way that was easy to understand. This made us feel much more confident and supported throughout the process.
Liam and Giustino, with whom we have had most of our contact, have both been fantastic. Liam took the time to explain each stage of the mortgage process and made everything clear and understandable. Giustino has also been extremely helpful and efficient in handling the paperwork and supporting us with the required documents.
We are very grateful to them both for their help and would confidently recommend First Mortgage to anyone looking for support with buying a home, especially first-time buyers.
