Worked with Martin from JDCIFA as a first time buyer and the service was exceptional. I'd recommend them to anyone navigating these concepts for the first time.
Truly above and beyond.
Great service from Martin
I worked with Martin for a first time buyer’s purchase on the DMS scheme. His knowledge and experience with setting up the scheme made me confident that things were being done correctly throughout the process. He was able to secure me a good mortgage deal and handle the back and forth with the lender without having to involve me. I would highly recommend his services.

Simple, seamless, and highly recommended
I've used Martin and JDCIFA for my last three mortgages and wouldn't go anywhere else. They're great to work with and Martin always makes everything straightforward. Highly recommend.
It's a pleasure working with JDC IFA
It's a pleasure working with JDC IFA. Professional and proactive. I wouldn't think twice about using them in future. Have been using them to broken my mortgage since 2019.
Reliable and Highly Recommended Mortgage Service
I’ve been using JDC/IFA since 2021 and Martin Fairchild has been my mortgage broker throughout. He secured an excellent deal for me back then, and now that I’m remortgaging, he’s once again providing outstanding support with tailored recommendations and clear strategies.
Martin is knowledgeable, responsive and genuinely cares about finding the best outcome. I feel very lucky to have been introduced to JDC/IFA and couldn’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for mortgage advice.

I can’t recommend Martin & JDCIFA…
I can’t recommend Martin & JDCIFA highly enough! From start to finish, he made what could have been a stressful and overwhelming process feel manageable.
His knowledge of the mortgage market is exceptional, and he took the time to explain every step clearly so I always felt informed and confident in my decisions.
Martin went above and beyond to secure me the best possible mortgage deal, working tirelessly behind the scenes and always keeping me updated.
What stood out most was how nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and he was always available to answer questions or offer reassurance when needed.
If you’re looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dedicated mortgage broker, Martin & JDCIFA are for you. Five stars all the way!
Thanks again, Charlotte
Exceptional, quick and knowledgeable
I've been using this broker since buying my property in 2020. They are absolutely brilliant, very professional with knowledge of every kind of mortgage and purchasing scheme, including affordable housing, discount market sales etc.
Martin will have your mortgage completed in no time at all, no stress, no worries. Then when it comes to getting a new deal they can do that for you again & again without charge. You only pay once when you first apply for a mortgage with them.
I tired going alone this time and got in a mess with a new lender, Martin bailed me out and got a new deal completed in 1 WEEK.
Highly recommend, excellent communication, fast and reliable service. Do not go direct to lenders use this broker for the best mortgage experience.
Top Mortgage Adviser
Outstanding customer service. This is the second mortgage Martin has successfully going through a remortgage, first time was 5 years ago when getting my flat on DMS. Martin has been the best mortgage broker I could ask for: friendly and professional, supportive, knowledgeable and does exactly what he says he will in a very timely manner. Highly recommended. Thank you
Martin took care of our whole process…
Martin took care of our whole process and was super helpful throughout. From guiding us through the process, reapplying after our initial failed mortgage application, to even giving his two cents on which mortgage deal to go for, he was top notch from start to finish. Would highly recommend.
I could not recommend Martin enough
I could not recommend Martin enough, he has been a pleasure to deal with and he has kept me fully informed throughout a very complex mortgage process. I am very glad that I had Martin's expertise to rely on and he is just a great person who I've really enjoyed getting to know.
Professional
Martin has been very helpful and efficient! I am a first time buyer, not very experience with choosing the right mortgage, however Martin has options and advise choosing the right mortgage for you, especially first time buyer. I highly recommended.
First time buyer
Martin at JDCIFA made purchasing my first property a stress hassle free process! His support and step by step guidance made everything easy! Cannot recommend enough!!

I have been their customer for over 5 years now. It's been very good. Good deals and always helpful.
Outstanding service and experience
This was my first time getting a mortgage and I'm so glad I crossed paths with Martin and his team at JDCIFA. They have taken care of every step of the process. Being a non UK national there were many areas that I needed a clear explanation in plain English. Martin was always super welcoming and helped me to understand every concept. I had a gazillion questions and he was always there to answer over and over if needed (bless his patience!). I will also highlight that they have unparalleled attention to detail, no need to reissue documentation at all. Everything went super smooth.
I can't recommend them enough and I'm certain they will be my trusted financial advisors moving forwards for years to come.
