We are 5-star rated

  • I cannot rate the team at Mayflower high enough. I’m self employed so this naturally added to the complexities. Mike saw the application with the chosen lender through, keeping in contact at all times. A huge amount of the stress of the project was borne by Mike and his team, and truly, without their input, I cannot see that I would have secured the funding for my build.

  • I called Mayflower on a recommendation as the previous Self-build mortgage broker I had started with were a disorganised mess and frustrated me to no end. I was assigned Glenn Chandler who was excellent all the way through. Got a quick offer away and was super straightforward. I would highly recommend this well organised and professional team.

  • The team at Mayflower have been so easy and great to deal with, keeping me updated at every step along the way. Glenn in particular who I dealt with mainly made the process simple and reacted to all my questions and concerns without delay. I will certainly be recommending then to whoever is in the market for a self-build Mortgage. Thanks again. Tom & Donna

  • Thank you Michelle for your help and support from beginning to completion on our self-build mortgage. it is a different process to residential and you explained all parts of the process really well, helped us get the documents together for the application and followed through every step with reminders as we neared completion. I could not recommend enough!
