Hi, I’m Lucy – founder of Creating Mortgage Solutions. I offer tailored advice on all types of mortgages, including: First-Time Buyers Remortgages Home Movers Buy-to-Let & Portfolio Landlords Bridging Finance In addition, I work with a restricted panel of providers to offer protection products such as: Life Cover Critical Illness Cover Income Protection Buildings & Contents Insurance With over 18 years of experience in the Financial Services industry, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every client relationship. In 2017, I made the leap to become self-employed with a clear mission: ➡️ To help people in my local community and beyond achieve their mortgage goals with honest, friendly, and personalised advice. During lockdown in 2020, I launched my own brand — Creating Mortgage Solutions — and haven’t looked back since. I'm proud to have been recognised nationally, making the Top 3 Mortgage Brokers in the UK at the Mortgage Introducer Awards 2019. Based in Barry, I cover Cardiff, the Vale of Glamorgan, and all surrounding areas in South Wales. Thanks to remote working, I can also support clients across the UK — all from the comfort of your own home. I offer flexible appointments during the day, evenings, and weekends to suit your lifestyle. Most importantly, I’m a proud mum to my beautiful daughter Freya — the reason behind everything I do. Going self-employed allowed me to create a better work-life balance and spend more time with my family, including my fiancé Paul and our French Bulldog, Ronnie.
