I'm a Financial Adviser and have been with Elite Financial Planning Consultants since 2017 and have recently gained a Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning. My particular area of interest is helping First TIme Buyers however the value in suitable advice for home movers, remortgages and Buy to Let borrowing is equally important. I have a diverse client base ranging from First Time Buyers to borrowers remortgaging for the last time. I believe the key to great advice is to listen to the client to establish their goals, realising that no two situations are the same, and use my technical knowledge and available tools find a suitable solution. My spare time is spent with my family which usually revolves around being outside and camping trips when we can. Get help with everything from buying your first property, to remortgaging, or funding investment in property. Warning: YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE. Most Buy to Let mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

£430,000 Consumer Protection

Your money is protected against bad advice by the Financial Ombudsman Service up to a maximum limit of £430k and by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) if the company goes out of business (in which case, limits may vary - see the FSCS website for more details).
