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

For retirement and pension advice.

How has Jake Millar helped you?

He has brought all my pension pots together and placed them with a pension provider. The advice he gave to me to help me decide which type of pension to take was clear and easily understood. At no time did I feel pressurised to make my decision on which pension type to take.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

YES.

What could they have done better?

I cannot think of anything that was not very well done.

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

We were looking to purchase our first home together and literally didn’t know where to start. Our friend had recommended Jake, so we booked to see him!

How has Jake Millar helped you?

Jake helped with literally everything. We didn’t have a smooth ride whatsoever and Jake went above and beyond to ensure that we got our house... even when it looked like we were nowhere near getting it! Jake stayed involved, answering my endless questions right up until the day we actually got the keys. He pushed the right people’s buttons to get us where we needed to be and was really, the only positive part of our house buying experience. Jake is so friendly and easy to get along with- we’ll actually miss working with him!

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

We’ve now been in our house for two weeks- 9 months delayed- but we’re here!

What could they have done better?

Not at all.

Selling a home and porting a mortgage

How has Jake Millar helped you?

Jake has been absolutely wonderful and extremely patient with us throughout our house buying/selling journey! He's stuck with us even though our house sale fell through 3 times and has always offered the best advice for us. He's always kept us updated on the latest deals or what would be best for us. He helped get our mortgage approved with complicated circumstances and we really couldn't have done it without him! I highly recommend him for anyone wanting help with house sales and purchases! He's super friendly and does an amazing job! Thank you so so much, Jake!

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes! We wouldn't have been able to do it without him!

What could they have done better?

Nothing!

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

There was a wide market and I wasn’t sure that I was getting the best deal possible for my money.

How has Jake Millar helped you?

Because my wife and I have busy roles in the teaching profession, time is rather valuable to us. Not only will Jake provide sound, up-to-date knowledge but he will also help to take the stress away of a remortgage and make the transition as smooth as possible. For anyone in a position like us where they don’t have the prior knowledge or time to conduct this process themselves, an operate like Jake would be extremely useful for them.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely! We have returned back to Jake each time for our mortgage needs.
