Stefan has been amazing. He explained everything more than once, made it easier to understand in terms I could understand. We had a very long and lengthy chat going over all my worries and steps needed. He was plesant and never once was pushy. I felt reasured and confident with the information he gave on all figures and fees. He was very genuine and nothing seemed to much trouble. 10 out of 10 highly recommended.

Having been through a few processes with Stefan I knew what was needed. We worked through a long drawn out remortgage process due tl structural issues in the property, throughout which stefan was always positive and accurate with his information. He stuck by and kept cracking away at finding the best deal possible in the circumstances.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan found multiple good deals, re assessed all the information provided very quickly and also was top notch on communication. When I had to get things done in a short time frame Stefan was clear and helped by arranging as much as he could. Goong out of his way to call lenders, underwriters, valuation teams etc all to ensure they were doing things urgently. Overall I would always recommend Stefan as his knowledge, perseverance is excellent and also kept me going through some very tough times.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

As a recently divorced, single parent, Stefan prioritised my case knowing my personal circumstances. I was extremely worried I would not find an affordable deal I could manage myself. I was very anxious with the fluctuating market and interest rates steadily increasing. Nothing was too much trouble for Stefan. He is a caring, friendly, helpful advisor. Any question I had, he had no trouble answering and put my anxieties at ease. He found me a great mortgage deal and advised I secure the rate for 2years. I was so glad to secure the deal when I did because not long after all the rates increased. I would highly recommend Stefan to anyone!!

Yes, the mortgage deal was the best deal at the time. Glad I secured the mortgage deal early as the rates shortly increased.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Takes away the pressure of searching for the right product by using his industry knowledge and financial expertise to ensure that he provides products and information which are relevant, helpful and financially sound. Stefan completes all the paperwork so there was very little for me to do, I trusted him to process everything and he did not disappoint.

Yes, in a market where mortgages are increasing he has found a good mortgage for us which although more than we were paying is still less than we would have expected to pay.

A morgage deal that Stefan had sourced for me 5 years ago was coming to and end i wanted to secure a new deal

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

I first dealte with Stefan just over 5 years ago when he sourced a really good Mortgage deal with a top lender. His work on that deal saved me considerable time and he secured me a deal at the time which was better than any i coudl see on the market. As the anniversary of my 5 year deal started to close in Stefan kept me updated so I had time to work out what I wanted to do. He kept me updated as the dates drew closer and clearly outlined critical dates so that i did not automatically switch to the market rate type standard deal from my lender at the end of my product term. He took time and explained various options to me regarding products and their relative benefits for my current needs and and then worked quickly to secure the selected deal. He made the whole process straightforward and easy to complete and provided good advice. I will use Stefan again and would recommend others to use his services.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes - The outcome is felxible and that was important as needs may change in the short to medium term.

Myself and my wife were ready to remortgage after having been on a five year fixed deal. We were advised by Stefan five years ago and we’re really impressed then as we’re now.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan, took the time to outline many hypothetical scenarios and made sure we were well aware of the pros and cons of each mortgage product. He is very thorough and has a clear expertise that he imparts without judgement or bias. This is the second time we’ve sought advice from Stefan over a five year period and couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes. We moved to a much better mortgage rate seamlessly without stress or incident. We will be looking to use his services again in the future.

Nothing, we were very happy with the outcome and process that led to it.

Stefan secured me a fantastic remortgage deal, also managed to implement the new terms 3 months earlier than my renewal date making me a rather substantial saving over the next few months. Stefan took care of every step of the process, requiring only a digital signature from myself. Also, Stefan is assisting me in securing further borrowing from my existing lender with absolutely no financial benefit for himself. I have provided his details to others who are just as happy as myself with his services. If you are seeking any financial services at all you will not be disappointed by the level of service provided by Stefan and his team. Fantastic communication and attentive at all times.

Stefan helped every step of the way, offering good impartial advice. He was able to provide competitive results for the whole range of scenarios we gave him. We finally settled with an off-set mortgage, which we were both happy with.

He was discreet, polite and has found extremely competitive and solid products.

Hi Carol, Thank you so much for your feedback and I'm glad you were pleased with the advice and service provided when helping you raise funds against your home. For your information Age Partnership charge 1.95% of the amount borrowed with a minimum fee of £1,495, and Key Advisers charge 1.99% of the amount borrowed with a minimum fee of £1,500 for their Whole of Market advice service, both of which are considerably more than twice the amount you paid.

We needed to review our mortgage option rather than revert back to standard tariff.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan was very patient in taking us through all of the options and supporting us with information to help us to decide which option to go for. When we decided, we were explained to step by step what would happen and when - and got useful prompts when we were required to submit information. Not being financial experts, and busy parents - we were very grateful for Stefan's understanding and consideration of our circumstances - he made what would have been quite a painful process quite easy for us!

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, all sorted now - new mortgage deal secured for 5 years at a rate and lender that we are happy with.

What could they have done better?

Not sure anything - he was friendly, could ask any questions, and available when we needed him to be. Just at the end of the process I hadn't accounted for completion fees (and being just before Christmas £ was quite tight), and we weren't sure if the cashback was going straight to solicitors etc...but we sorted it, and turned out we ended up with a cheque for £600+ as surplus - but that was the only slight panic I had through the process, and just meant a bit of juggling.

I can honestly say he went above and beyond the call of duty in bringing the paperwork to me to sign (as I physically couldn’t get to his office), and then on the day of completion, he was politely persistent so that all buyers, sellers and Solicitors could work together in a timely fashion and close the deal before Christmas.

I could not be happier with the service which I have been provided by Entire FS. As A first time buyer making a purchase at auction and a property on a unadopted road, there were a number of obstacles which arose during the process. Entire FS made sure that none of these obstacles hindered me in the purchase of the property. They communicated and liaised with myself, the estate agent and my solicitors clearly and in a timely fashion throughout the process. At one point the estate agent asked me if Stefan (my broker from Entire FS) was related to me in anyway, as he has never met a more proactive broker. As you can imagine this was more than reassuring to hear. Even with poor Conveyancing performed by my own solicitor Entire FS managed to successfully complete my application in time and I was able to complete the purchase. I am in no doubt that if I was acting alone in this case the sale would have not gone through. Thanks to the perseverance of Stefan and all of the team at Entire FS i now have the keys to my first property. 5 Star Service.

Worked hard to find suitable mortgage offer even after first two were declined by lender so showed great perseverance. It took some time but end result satisfactory. Waited to inform me each time first two lenders rejected loan until had an alternative to propose so I was left in the dark for a few days each time - suspecting the rejection but not having it confirmed until he had an alternative. I understood his reasoning but would probably have preferred to hear about the rejected offers straight away even if at that time he did not have an alternative lender to try.

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

We wanted an independant mortgage advisor who could find us the best mortgage on the market for a competative fee, thus saving us money and making the process as simple as possible.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

I finished purchasing a house through Stefan in March 19. The entire process with Stefan was fantastic, from initial enquiries and information gathering, mortgage options, all the way through to completion and a lovely celebratory card. Communication was absolutely first-class; at all stages of the process Stefan kept us informed of our options, the current situation, and what needed to be done by what day. On many occasions Stefan was dealing with enquires for us well past normal working hours and was always available on the phone. Fee's were competative and given he had access to the whole market, I have no doubt that Stefan saved us a whole lot of money! Overall I would highly recommend Stefan to anyone looking for a honest and hard working mortgage advisor.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Absolutely - no doubt we got the best mortgage on the market given our circumstances. Moved into a fantastic home on a great deal. I will certainly be using Stefan in the future for re-mortgaging and other finanicial requirements.

What could they have done better?

Not at all - Stefan ticked every box required of a mortgage advisor and even exceeded expectations.

Stefan's reply

Hi Flutura, I'm sorry to read your review and your initial impressions, especially after I contacted you almost immediately after you made contact and we had a good chat. Please could you let me know why you've said that my VouchedFor account doesn't accurately reflect the services that I offer? Yes we do charge a fee for our service, but rather than be paid upfront it is only payable once I have found you a suitable mortgage solution which you are happy with and after we have submitted a successful Decision In Principle with the lender and after we have submitted a full application along with all your supporting documents to the lender. We would also help project manage the whole process for you as buying a house isn't only about having a mortgage. If you change your mind, please do not hesitate to contact me again as I would always be happy to help you in the future, otherwise I wish you all the best with your future purchase. Regards Stefan

I became self-employed in the last four years and didn't have the knowledge I needed to apply and secure a mortgage. Stefan was highly rated by a family member.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan gave myself and my partner exactly the right kind of help that we needed. Like many people in our boat, we have the ability to figure things out but working for ourselves do not have the time to do the research or, in particular, know what to look out for. Stefan explained everything we needed to know in a clear and friendly manner. I always felt like we could ask that extra question that we needed to do inorder to fully understand the situation. Above all, Stefan was completely honest about what was acheivable and what we needed to do, even through, for us, that meant waiting a little longer before we applied for a mortgage. He pointed out potential pitfalls in advance which helped save a lot of stress later on. Buying a house isn't always easy, but Stefan was always on hand to offer calm and collected advice, when it was most needed. We wanted to move relatively quickly and Stefan gave us all the information we needed to make that happen. The best thing about Stefan is that he is highly qualified with knowledge in this area and he is easy to talk to. I felt like I have much more confidence about my financial future due to the help he has provided.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Stefan's advice is always up-to-date, well-researched and very helpful. He is very responsive and hard-working and will find the best deal for you. In all honesty, I don't think we would be house owners now without Stefan taking and getting us through the process and we are very grateful for all his advice and support. Not only that but I'm sure he has saved us a lot of money by getting us the arrangement that suited us. Stefan and his team put a lot of effort into researching our options and making sure that the process went as smoothly as possible. Finding an excellent financial advisor is a no brainer if you are looking for a mortgage- you will spend far more in time looking and be much poorer without the expert advice they provide - Stefan is an absolutely brilliant financial adviser and I would highly recommend him as a professional. We moved in in December 2016 and will definitely be going back to stefan for advice for next time. My advice is to speak to a professional as soon as you are thinking about getting a mortgage as it may take you a number of months or years to get yourself in the right position. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Stefan and his team once again. You have really made a difference to our prospects and financial outlook through the constructive advice and positive approach that you have provided.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan listened to my requirements, converted those into options which he explained to me clearly and then collected the supporting data necessary from me. He took that and was quickly able to recommend products that exactly matched my needs. The most important thing Stefan did for me was gave me options that I could compare and understand aside 2 differing potential flexibility requirements.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

I could not be happier with the outcome, I got an excellent value product with a top quality lender delivered quickly and efficiently. The backroom team supporting Stefan worked to keep me informed during all steps of the transaction and acted as liaison between the solicitor and the lender to make my involvement even easier. I have learned from this transaction that professional financial advice simplifies and de-stresses the whole process.

Was always available to talk to or reassure about the process. Has a lot of experience in this area. Didn't try and sell additional products which were not essential.

What could they have done better?

My experience/situation was quite straightforward for him do deal with, duwe to his experience. Therefore, he wasn't given an opportunity to showcase his full set of skills because from what I saw he couldn't do any better.

Stefan found us a great mortgage. We had some tricky obstacles, such as being self employed and owned other properties. But Stefan managed to still get us a great rate, where others had failed or not been interested

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Great communication - He seems to work 24/7. He was always available to speak and responded prompty to every question I had. He was very helpful in getting the right mortgage for us and ensured we secured the house we wanted. Worked to incredibly challenging deadlines and overcame some of the new mortgage hurdles that meant finding finance was proving difficult. He was also able to get us an application refund on a product that we were not eligible for. He didn't have to do this and it was appreciated. In addition we had 2 properties fall through before securing our current property. There were no abortive fees for his time and he never gave the impression of frustration and remained focus on getting us throught the process. Would recommend to anyone!

What could they have done better?

Not much constructive criticism I can offer he knows mortgages inside and out.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan was recommended by a mutual friend who had used his services. I was a first time buyer and was overwhelmed with the minefield that is mortgages. What started as a fairly simple process soon changed and we hit every brick wall, but Stefan continued to search for a solution. He went above and beyond his duties to ensure everything was completed as required. He was always easy to contact, explained everything fully, was able to answer any question I had and kept me updated every step of the way. One thing I really appreciated was how he gave his advice on situations but never pressured me or persuaded me to make a decision. He is extremely professional and efficient and I would not hesitate to recommend his services to others.

What could they have done better?

Nothing, I would definitely recommend him to others.

Stefan was recommended via a friend who had also used his services, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He searched through lots of options for my requirements and explained them all in a way I could easily understand and make a good decision with. His communication is excellent and he kept me updated every step of the way, chasing up many additional queries on my behalf.

Stefan is amazing and extremely professional. My house purchase turned into a real nightmare due to a difficult vendor, the purchase price even changed at the last minute, but Stefan steered me through the whole process in a very calm & professional manner. He works really hard to make sure you have the right product and works all hours to make the mortgage application as painless as possible. I would recommend him to anyone!

What could they have done better?

Nothing, he does everything right already

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan is an absolute credit to his industry. He was always available for any of our needs throughout the full mortgage application and even worked evenings to help us process things as quickly as we could. Nothing was too much trouble even when a change of circumstances arose and we had to look at different options. In the end Stefan's advice saved us a large amount of interest on the current mortgage we have taken out. He also took time to explain different options regarding insurance which is usually a minefield, but again he made it an easy choice.

What could they have done better?

I honestly couldn't fault Stefan, his professional manner was superb. I have, and would recommend him to anyone looking for sound trustworthy advice.

How has Stefan Stimpson helped you?

Stefan was very clear and concise in his explanations, right through the process. This helped us to fully understand every option we had when coming to a decision on which mortgage we should go for (as first time buyers, the whole area of mortgages was totally new to us). This understanding helped us to feel confident and relaxed from start to finish. We were also amazed at just how efficient Stefan is. Nothing is too much trouble. He kept us fully up to date as soon as he had new information and even processed our application on a Sunday.

What could they have done better?

Maybe he could clone himself to reduce his workload a little? In all honesty, there isn't really anything that i can think to suggest in terms of improvement. I'm 100% happy with the service that's he's provided for us.

Stefan had many excellent attributes. His communication, work ethic and standards are some of the best in the business. He left no stone unturned when trying to help me get onto the property ladder, and made sure I was fully aware of what he was doing and why.

What could they have done better?

I honestly don't think Stefan could have done anything better. He always answered his phone, he never switched off (we even had call's past 10pm) and he outlay all his findings and gave you good honest opinions on how he feels you should move forward.
