Lowdens was my biggest mistake.

Lowdens was my biggest mistake. Lowdens was a broker recommended by the developers of the property I was interested in. As a first-time buyer, I'm not an expert on the property market, so I relied on the advice of Lowdens, which was inaccurate, and that's something no first-time buyer employing the services of a broker should go through.

I made it clear I could only afford a 10% deposit with HTB, and the broker confirmed I was eligible for the scheme. Fast forward a few weeks later, I'm being told my deposit will have to be 15% to qualify for HTB. When I queried this difference, the broker vehemently refused to take responsibility for providing incorrect information and accused me of raising my voice in frustration when he wouldn't admit his mistake. It was only after presenting the email evidence that he admitted his mistake.

Now I'm in a position where I'm not sure how I'll be able to raise the extra 5%, and I could lose the fees I've already paid towards the property. I honestly wish I'd never crossed paths with such an incompetent broker in my house-buying experience.

First Class Service - Highly Recommend

From the first conversation we had with Lowdens, through to getting our mortgage offer, the service was first class.
The information and guidance provided helped up make an informed decision and explained what could have been a very daunting and confusing experience. Abbie was very knowledgeable, helpful and easy to deal with from the brokers team keeping on top of all the important details.
Alina also helped to push things through and give us regular updates and we are grateful to the work both have put in.
I would highly recommend Lowdens to any friends/family/anyone reading this review. You could not ask for a better service.

Exceeded my expectations. WOW!

When I started searching for mortgage brokers I compared Lowdens with 5 other brokers including TORC24, however everytime I wanted to talk to someone I needed to book a call for a week in advance or wait for a callback that never happened. At the start I was worried about Lowden as they are a smaller company however once I decided to go through with them I realised that they were available 7 days a week and having a small team made you be able to know everyone and be able to follow where you left off immediately without having to wait. This also meant that my mortgage and Help to Buy got approved so so quick. I can’t emphasis how amazing they were throughout the process.

About the mortgage rates they actually found me better rates than every other place. So 10000% recommend them!!!

Dear Milad, thank you for using our services, we hope that we proved that small can sometimes be more efficient. You were a very engaged client, which really helped us to get you the mortgage quickly and achieve such a good rate. I know you are not due to complete for a few months, so we can review the mortgage rate a bit nearer the time to see if there is an improved rate! Once again we thank you for using our services and leaving such a great review.

Great service

I'm pleased with the service received. Initially I started with a different broker and they were taking their time, not responding to my messages and calls. It's good that I switched to Lowdens - the responses were speedy and the process progressed seamlessly.

The BEST in the business!

I came back to Bill Aitken having used him for my first mortgage seven years ago. The service from the outset has been truly fantastic and despite these challenging times, a mortgage offer was issued 15 days after I first spoke to Bill. Additional issues were thrown up during the application due to me having other mortgages but Bill and Alina dealt with them expeditiously and superbly. I now have a mortgage offer with an excellent interest rate and will be the first party in my chain to be ready to exchange. If you want an extremely professional mortgage broker, there is only one place to go.
