Outstanding service

We highly recommend Sam who has been our mortgage broker for several years now. The service we have received has been outstanding, highly professional and personable. The whole process from start to finish was seamless because of this.
All our queries were always answered and nothing was too much trouble. A huge thank you to Sam.

Look no further

Sam has been fantastic to work with - incredibly knowledgeable and always my first call for anything mortgage-related. I’ve already recommended him to several family members and friends because honestly, there is no advisor that is better!

What I really appreciate is how he makes what can be a complicated process feel straightforward. He takes the time to explain everything clearly at each step, which gives me complete confidence in the decisions I’m making.

He consistently finds the best rates available and is always friendly and easy to reach when I have questions.

Would definitely recommend Sam to anyone looking for mortgage advice.

Amazing service, super knowledgeable and helpful.

Amazing service, super knowledgeable and helpful. Sam has been able to help us across multiple, far from straightforward mortgages! and has always been very knowledgeable and great to respond to our many questions. Highly recommend.

Cannot recommend enough

Cannot recommend enough. We had a very complicated mortgage request with cladding and ground rent issues and Sam made sure he got us sorted despite multiple setbacks and hurdles. We’re now all sorted and in our new home thanks to Oakwood!

First Time Buyer

Being a first time buyer, it was a daunting experience to enter the market with rates being so volatile and being unsure of the process. Sam took all the stress away by talking us through every step of the way, providing reassurance and managing expectations throughout.

Most impressively, Sam worked tirelessly to secure the best rate and most suitable mortgage for us. Even once we have agreed a rate, Sam continued to work behind the scenes with providers and one week after exchange, he came us with a further improved offer. Sam saved us 0.50% on an our rate and effectively 00s a month on repayments.

A fantastic service, I’ll be back when my mortgage comes up for renewal

Superb service - Highly recommended!

We recently used Oakwood mortgages and couldn’t be happier with the service we received.

Sam worked tirelessly hard to find us the best mortgage deal possible and was always available to answer our queries quickly.

We ended up getting a much better mortgage deal than those available online. It was worth every penny going through a company like Oakwood, saving us time and money.

Highly recommended to take the stress out of shopping around!

Just when you think all mortgage advisors are the same...

Just when you think all mortgage advisors are the same, I was introduced to Sam. Having dealt with many advisors in the past, from banks to independents, I can say that Sam is, without a doubt, the best I have come across.

His whole of market knowledge, commitment, and technical abilities are second to none. He is a natural problem solver, that works with integrity and honesty, and will do everything possible to meet your needs as a client.

His professionalism is impressive, and he is more than happy to deal with every aspect of the process, no matter how laborious. In a world where much of the personal touch has been replaced by face-less digital interactions, Sam takes a rare personable approach, understanding the importance of his work and the effect it has on his clients' lives.

He is a relationship builder that puts his clients first, is always contactable (unlike many advisors that I have dealt with in the past), and will always go that extra mile to help you succeed in what you want to do.

I have now had the pleasure of working with Sam on three occasions, and the experience is the same or better each time. I happily recommend Oakwood Mortgages to anyone and everyone I know that are in need of advice, and cannot imagine turning to anyone else in the future.

Great Experience

Sam was great and really helped us buy our dream house. He was friendly and very knowledgeable, making sure that the mortgage was right for us and working hard on our behalf to get the mortgage agreed.

Great experience all round!!

Fantastic experience with Oakwood

Fantastic experience with Oakwood. I haven’t actually encountered a company that makes your concern and interests in the way Oakwood does.

Huge props to Matt in helping me secure my mortgage. Really helpful and they also check through to make sure the house buying process is going smoothly for you.

Excellent experience beyond expectation

Sam was introduced to me when I needed help changing my mortgage provider. My previous mortgage advisor let me down and I needed help finding a new mortgage lender. Don't invest time looking any further. Sam's patience, professionalism, listening to your concerns and making sure everything will be fine is priceless. His experience, hand in hand with his sensitive approach to your needs, is a guaranteed success. Thank you Sam for completing my mortgage and also for your continuing support.
