Manning Stainton Mortgage Advice Bureau Reviews 

Great service from Thomas Hawley and Elizabeth Bell. The process is still ongoing but they have been very helpful, informative and understanding throughout - especially when there have been bumps in the road.

Sunjay provided a great experience, highly recommend.

They are so friendly and always ready to help you with your questions, they are professional

Amazing experience with Vicky and Dominic, they have made the mortgage process so smooth for me and they have explained me all steps in simple language. Vicky has been amazing answering all my queries and questions. I would definitely recommend them.

MAB did my original mortgage in 2016 and made the whole process very smooth and easy to understand for a first-time buyer. I came back to them for my remortgage in 2021 and again in 2026 and it's especially good to work with a firm that people stay with - I had the same adviser, Amanda, for all three transactions despite them spanning ten years. The rest of the MAB team seems to have changed a bit more in that time but I've had excellent service from the admins every time.

They’re everything is perfect and easy,
We’re first buyers but they make it so fast and smooth for us.
I totally recommend to everyone.
They’re the best,
Thank you.

As a first-time solo buyer, I can honestly say that the team at Manning Stainton Mortgage Advice Bureau made what could have been a stressful experience feel straightforward, enjoyable, and completely hassle-free.
From the very beginning, Vicky was exceptional. Every email, phone call, text, and video call was handled with genuine care, kindness, and professionalism. She answered EVERY question I had, found the right solutions to EVERYTHING I NEEDED, and supported me through every step of the process, always making me feel reassured and confident. With Vicky everything was made easy and simple.
When Vicky introduced me to Dominic to continue my journey, the outstanding service continued seamlessly. His emails were always professional, friendly, and reassuring. No matter what additional information or documents were needed, he explained everything clearly and made the process feel simple and manageable.
Vicky and Dominic were so much more than mortgage advisors. They built such a positive and supportive relationship with me that I genuinely looked forward to hearing from them. They made me feel valued rather than just another client, and it really felt like we were all working together towards the same goal.
The knowledge, dedication, and teamwork at Manning Stainton Mortgage Advice Bureau helped turn my dream of owning my first home into a reality. I can't thank Vicky and Dominic enough for everything they did, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them and the entire team at Manning Stainton Mortgage Advice Bureau to anyone looking for knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring mortgage advisors.

I can't recommend Giles and Laura highly enough. From start to finish, they provided an outstanding service and made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable.
Giles was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always took the time to explain everything clearly. He worked hard to find the best mortgage option for my circumstances and was always available to answer my questions.
Laura was equally amazing. She kept everything organised, kept me updated throughout the process, and made sure nothing was overlooked. Her communication was excellent, and she was always friendly, responsive, and reassuring.
Together, they made an exceptional team. Their professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for their clients really stood out. I felt supported every step of the way, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Thank you both for all your hard work. I would recommend Giles and Laura to anyone looking for a mortgage broker—they truly go above and beyond.

As a first time buyer not knowing much about buying a house, mortgages, etc. Mortgage Advice Bureau could not have made it any easier for me. Fast communication throughout the whole process, the mortgage advisor explained the whole process and took care of the mortgage application and communication with the bank. Absolutely great service for first time buyers.

I've just exchanged on my house purchase and I can't thank Louise Rusby and Cassie Coates enough for all their help. Louise has been amazing. She has been so responsive and helpful answering all my queries and calming all my worries throughout the whole process. When I was having issues with the sellers estate agents, she dropped everything and sorted my mortgage aip out and it was in my inbox in minutes. When I exchanged Cassie sorted out my insurance so Im covered until completion which I hadn't thought about. Together they have made my whole process of buying my first house on my own and extremely pleasant one. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will continue to use their services for the duration of my mortgage. Thank you once again guys. You're amazing xx

I’ve been working with Laura and Michelle while getting my mortgage and they have been super helpful!

Michelle was amazing at talking me through the mortgage application process and assisting us with out insurance and Laura consistently kept us up to date throughout the process.

I would definitely recommend this company if you’re looking for amazing mortgage advisors.

My second time using this company; they got me a brilliant 5 year fixed rate deal when I purchased my property after deciding to move house after 30 years. This time round they have secured me a 3 year fixed rate remortgage deal that suits my needs.
I had a couple of meetings with Joanne Boulden and she explained everything in ways that were easy to understand and responded quickly. It was straightforward to upload all the evidence required. Once we'd decided on the mortgage I was assigned Cassie Coates who kept me informed along the way. Cassie will be there for me until my changeover date in a few months time.
I am so grateful for their professionalism, guidance and for taking the stress out of remortgaging.

I couldn’t have asked for more from Dominic Challinor. He was knowledgeable, always quick to reply and acknowledge correspondence and went over and above with all the chasing he did for me. He made my whole experience stress free. Thanks Dom!

my advisor Vicky was very prompt and always there to respond and attend to my enquiries.

Fantastic service from Vicky and Dominic could not thank them enough, really happy with their fast service, a lot better service than I could ever imagine, very nice people too. Great job thanks ever so much

Shannon and Cassie were exceptional, always ready and willing to answer any questions and brilliant at putting my mind at ease with everything

We are first time buyers and didn’t know anything about the mortgage or house buying business at all. Sunjay Chauhan was our initial advisor and was extremely helpful and answered all of our questions no matter how small and helped us understand the process. Once we had received a mortgage offer, his colleague Dominic Challinor took over our case and kept us updated as the process continued and kept in touch with our solicitors and did most of the heavy lifting. Couldn’t recommend these guys enough, they’ve been incredibly helpful every step of the way.

Excellent service. Shannon has been incredible.

Read me if you want a genuine sense of security. I’m a first time buyer, 29, normal Monday-Friday job.

I came to this company with 0 knowledge or understanding about how buying a house works. I filled out a few details online then was given a mortgage advisor called Giles. Giles was absolutely amazing from day 1, he explained everything to me really simply, helped me get a decision in principle (he tells you what to provide him with such as bank statements, payslips, ID (passport/driving license) and then he tries to find you the best lender with the best deal. There are no hidden costs he tells you what the fee will be and what you get in return from that at the very beginning which I like because it’s transparency.

I went to view a property after a got my decision in principle and then put an offer in, once it was accepted you then go back to your mortgage advisor to then submit your actual mortgage application to receive an offer from a lender. To do this there is a fee, I paid £595 as I’d rather pay somebody to help me through the whole process and send things off correctly than trying to do it myself. These guys know what they’re doing day in day out, trust them.

I then got taken over to Laura that deals with the admin side of things, she was great. Also I’d like to thank Shoaib as he was the one who gave me the brilliant news that I received a mortgage offer and told me the next steps.

I’d trust anyone at this firm directly on who I dealt with, honest, reliable and trustworthy people. Always reply well on emails and always pick up the phone. You can’t ask for better.

I will be advising any of my mates to come here for help and as a first time buyer. The whole process was honestly shockingly easy, I never leave reviews either so trust me.

Kind Regards,

Jack Grills, 29, normal Monday - Friday job
