“I’m single, live by myself with no dependents. I currently rent my flat from my stepmother and she said she wanted to sell it. This was a good opportunity for me as I’d been looking to get on the property ladder for a while. But, as a first-time buyer, I didn’t have any idea what I was doing, I didn’t have a huge deposit and I didn’t know where to start!”

Carolyn made a stressful process a lot easier and calmer

“Because I was buying from a family member, I really needed some independent advice and Carolyn was brilliant. Sharing your finances with someone requires trust and that’s something I have with Carolyn. She advised me that she was working for me and in my best interests which was really reassuring.”

“Right from the get-go Carolyn’s been super helpful, really friendly and approachable. She’s made what can be such a big, stressful process, a lot easier and calmer.”

Carolyn found a really good deal for me that I wouldn’t have found myself

“The fact that I even managed to get a mortgage was because of her. I didn’t have a huge deposit and Carolyn found a really good deal for me that I wouldn’t have found myself. We also had to move quickly to get this particular deal and she made herself available, even out of hours, in order to get it sorted within a few days.”

“It’s not just mortgages either, she is also helping me with other aspects of the house buying process that are really important to me like financial cover if something happened with work or if I was sick. Another thing that I appreciate is that she helps to translate some of the information I get from the solicitor. She said she speaks fluent solicitor and she’s right!”
