My partner and I were purchasing a home and had been recommended Helmut from a long term friend if ours who has worked with Helmut for many years!

How has Helmut Elstner helped you?

Helmut has been the only constant in our tumultuous house buying journey. After two failed house purchases (due to seller/chain issues), we finally settled on a new build. Helmut has been with us every step of the way and has consistently stayed in contact with myself and my partner. He is proactive in his approach and has been able to obtain great mortgage rates time and time again. Given the current economic climate, this approach has really helped us to get the best deal! Helmut’s wealth of knowledge and authentic demeanour really made us feel like we were in safe hands at every stage of the process! He really does take the stress out of what is the biggest purchase of your life and we are very grateful for all of his support!

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes and more! Not only did Helmut get us the best mortgage rate (a tricky feat given the current economic climate), but he also sorted out all of our life Insurance policies! His assistance took all of the guesswork out of this process, as he was able to show us all of the current providers and what they can offer. He answered all of our questions and we were able to pick the best policy to suit us!

What could they have done better?

N/A - Helmut has continuously gone above and beyond for us. I have not hesitated to recommend him to our friends and families, as I think he provides a superb service!

Hi George, in response to your first impression. Unfortunately I was not available to complete the mortgage appointment with you due the birth of my first son. I had an appointment arranged for you with one of my colleagues Caolan Coyle who works along with me at The Mortgage Clinic due to this. During the appointment Caolan explained everything to you and helped you during a free mortgage planning appointment. He also pointed out what our charges are to use our services clearly and you are aware of this.

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

My wife & I were purchasing our first home.

How has Helmut Elstner helped you?

Being our first time on the property ladder it’s daunting, you hear ‘advice’ and information from friends and family it’s hard to know what is actually correct and best course of action. Helmut got to know us and understand what we wanted he didn’t look at us like a number he seen our position and broke down all the financial jargon helped us understand what was in front of us and advised us on our best choices. It was clear from the start that Helmut knew the business inside & out; he answered all our questions competently not overloading us with information but concisely explained everything which really reassured us. We both have great trust Helmut which is vital when it’s financial advice, when it comes to remortgaging we will be going back to Helmut.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes, Helmut took all of the stress of of the mortgage and insurance applications. I couldn’t believe how smoothly & stress free, especially hearing from friends who struggled to know what was right choices for them and applying for mortgage.

What could they have done better?

I don’t have criticism from my experience, I highly recommend Helmut.
