Please provide a brief comment about your experience with Matthew

I contacted Matt after not getting very far with a previous mortgage advisor due to my situation being a little complex. Within 24 hours of initially speaking to Matt he managed to come back to me with positive news and I can now begin the process of moving house. I am really impressed with the speed and professional service given and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to obtain a mortgage.

Partner and I looking to buy our first home so wanted guidance through the process, along with help finding the best deal for us.

Great service and relaxed manner. Guided us through the whole process and everything to expect from estate agents and solicitors. Will be using again to remortgage in a couple of years ??

Yes, the house is purchased and we’ve been one of the first wave of people to successfully purchase with a 5% deposit after the scheme came back in.

What could they have done better?

Not much really, kept in touch with us throughout, even when there was nothing to update us on, so no complaints

Matt has advised us twice now on renegotiating our mortgage. He’s very friend and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. He’s also great at taking into account our preferences to make a good recommendation which has saved us hundreds of pounds over the span of our deal. He makes something which could feel quite overwhelming and complex very simple. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and we’ll be back in touch again when our new mortgage deal expires.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

As first time buyers nearly 6 years ago, we felt lost in a very confusing and overwhelming property market. We were totally new to the mortgage world and subsequently had a lot of questions! We needed that extra guidance to help us have the confidence that we were purchasing the right property for our budget, as well as getting an excellent deal on our mortgage, tailored to our circumstances. We came across Matt through searching and reading lots of reviews on different mortgage advisors and we've never looked back.

How has Matthew Nickson helped you?

Matt helped us to realise our budget for our first home and secured us a good mortgage rate with only a 5% deposit, something we hadn't thought possible. Matt has subsequently helped us to consider the benefits of life insurance and guided us through this application. Most recently Matt has worked miracles in negotiating with our current mortgage providers to port our existing mortgage (thus saving us an early repayment fee) to our dream family home. There have been endless phone calls backwards and forwards in order for Matt to understand our slightly complicated financial situation, and nothing has ever been too much trouble for him.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, we are now living in our dream family home!

My mortgage was coming to the end of its fixed term so I wanted to see if I could get a better rate and reduce the term

How has Matthew Nickson helped you?

Matt was a delight to work with! He was able to explain my re-mortgage options fully and clearly and found me a great 5-year fixed deal that would reduce my term length as I’d requested. He handled the process from start to finish very efficiently and was always friendly and very helpful. He kept me in the loop and always communicated well and promptly. Will absolutely use him in the future as will my daughter who recommended him.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes I have. Consolidated a loan and mortgage with new lender. Managed to knock 15 months off term and payments fixed for 5 years. I’m able to pay off up to 10% of outstanding amount fee free as well.

Don't really know where we would be without Mathew, probably homeless. After we sold our home and moved out into temporary housing whilst our new home was getting built, covid 19 happened!!!! The bank whom I had an account with for over 20yrs decided to pull out of giving us a mortgage as i am self employed......our whole world fell apart. I then contacted Matthew whom was extremely busy!!! but after listening to what had happened to us he gracefully took the time to help us ....we are now sat in our dream home and it's all thanks to Matthew..........

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I recently applied to buy my house from the council (after 33 years of renting it) as a Right To Buy and Matt was highly recommended to me.

How has Matthew Nickson helped you?

Matt was nothing but 110% professional, extremely helpful and guided me through every step from speaking to the council, to finding a mortgage, to recommending a solicitor and helping me through every step of the way. I was, a total novice and Matt helped me overcome my fears and helped me to a final outcome of owning my own home. I could not have done it without him. I cannot thank him enough, there are not enough words. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I now have a mortgage and own my own property, so Matt has helped me to achieve what I want, and I will always go back to him for future financial advice.

What could they have done better?

Nothing, quite honestly.

If you're ever in need of any financial advise and would like to feel that you have someone in your corner who fully understands your position and meticulously processes all areas of detail in an unprecedented manner then I can truly vouch for and recommend Mr Nickson. Matthew helped me with two property purchases recently and whilst each purchase wasn't the simplest of transactions due to manny reasons Matthew fully understood the task and challenges and guided both contracts through every stage with control and in areas with ease. Matthew even took responsibility and pushed both projects through to completion and dealt directly with with the solicitors and lenders on my behalf. At all stages of the process I felt as though Matthew was in full control, which left me to deal with my business.

What could they have done better?

Mt Nickson service from start to finish was impeccable, I have high standards and even from my point of view I don't think I could have asked for any thing more. On a human level a great guy as well.

Matt helped me through applying for a mortgage. As a first time buyer I needed a lot of advice on the best mortgage to suit. Matt was really friendly and informative in helping me to decide so that I made the best choice. Once an offer had been accepted on the property I wanted, Matt did all the corresponding between the estate agents and solicitors for me but kept me up to date regularly which made the whole process very easy and not stressful at all. Matt put in a lot of time and effort into everything and is extremely good value for money.

Myself and my partner were first time buyers and choosing Matt was the best decision we ever made! Matt completely took the stress out of buying our first home. He puts so much hard work into what he does and he is always there if you have any worries or concerns. Matt will keep you updated throughout the whole buying process ensuring that he explains it in a way you can understand things. No job is too big or too small for Matt. If we hadnt of chosen Matt I dont think that we would be in our new home now.

How has Matthew Nickson helped you?

We first came across Matthew Nickson online when we were looking for mortgages for the older person. Having discussed our requirements and all the options available with Matthew, we decided to go down the Equity Release route which reflected our personal circumstances. The Equity Release Mortgage application was very involved. He communicated with us on almost a daily basis and I would rate his customer support skills as first class. With Matthews help we were confident that we would have a successful outcome. Once the Equity Release Mortgage had been resolved I asked Matthew to review our life cover insurance to see if we could get a better deal than our current insurance provider at that time. Once again he presented all the options available for our needs and explained everything in a clear and concise manner. On his advice we changed our life cover provider and achieved a considerable monthly saving as well as greatly extending the period of life cover. I will certainly recommend Matthew to my family and friends without any hesitation. .

Matthew could not have done anything better. He was brilliant.

He has explained the process to me in a clear way, step by step which has helped prevent me from becoming overwhelmed with information. Matthew listened to my needs regarding re-payments and researched mortgages which met my requirements. He is very approachable and has made himself available as and when I have needed to speak to him. He has kept in constant communication with both myself and others involved in the process and has been very efficient with completing the necessary work.
