Customer services is 100% the most important part of this business – if this is not achieved, then we will not succeed’.

Gold standard Mortgage Advisor Katie! ⭐️
As first time buyers, we cannot recommend Katie at St Bart’s enough! She is quite literally a powerhouse and we would not have been in the position to buy our dream home without her! ⭐️ Professional, patient, thorough and diligent. Katie was always at the end of an email, a call or a message; reliable and dependable. She worked so hard to find us the best mortgage, and it was never a problem to amend or renew, when the process had many bumps in the road! Above all else, Katie is just a lovely genuine person who really cares about her clients and getting them to the finish line. We will absolutely keep in touch and not only come back to Katie for future financial help, but will recommend to everyone! Thank you Katie and St Bart’s, we are so grateful!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
100% Recommend
As first time buyers, we had no idea what to expect when it came to this process - however Tom Oliver was just an incredible help, made sorting our mortgage as easy as it possibly could be and guided us through the process so perfectly. I highly recommend and will definitely be using his services again in the future!
Top quality service
Maria at St Barts transformed our property purchase experience.
We had invested weeks feeding our initial mortgage broker with dozens of documents, as required by their preferred lender, and the process ground to a halt.
In total contrast St Barts had a mortgage approved, with an alternative lender, in twenty four hours.
Highly recommended business who understand their customers needs and find and deliver tailored solutions.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Excellent service⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Excellent service from start to finish — highly recommended. As a first-time buyer, I was guided through every step clearly and professionally by Mark Burgess — a big shout-out to him. He secured the best mortgage offer for me and was always quick to respond to questions. He gave great advice on the overall process flow, solicitors, surveys, and insurances, and supported me throughout based on my situation. He helped with far more than just the mortgage, answering many questions about the whole house-buying process. A genuine 5/5 service that is truly deserved.
Great process with Mark Burgess
Mark Burgess provided very clear and helpful communications through each step of the buying process. Always went the extra mile! I would highly recommend him and St Barts to friends, family and colleagues. Thanks Mark
St Rachel
I wouldn’t describe what Rachel provided as “customer service” — it was luxury, tailored support without the hefty price tag. It went far beyond what you typically receive elsewhere. We briefly worked with another broker who seemed to overcomplicate things in the name of being “extra careful,” and the contrast was night and day. Rachel was quick, precise, and knew exactly what was needed. It gave us immediate confidence that she understood the process inside out and had done her research — and it paid off. I put my trust in her, and she truly delivered.
It’s also worth noting that during our house-buying journey, we were worried that once the mortgage application was approved, communication would drop off. That couldn’t have been further from the truth. At every stage, Rachel checked in with us and consistently offered help whenever we needed it.
Rachel is not your average employee. She is a true professional in every sense of the word, clearly takes her work seriously, and genuinely enjoys what she does.
For us, Rachel has firmly put St Barts on the map. This finance company is clearly not your average firm. You get the sense that they treat their staff well, which makes it feel even better when you’re trusting them with such an important financial decision. Honestly, it was worth every penny.
Highly recommend St Bart’s Finance
Highly recommend St Bart’s Finance, so professional, extremely easy to deal with. Brought our first home, they guided us for the process and made it seem easy.
Massive thanks again guys. Speak soon.
Have a great Christmas and happy new year.
Amazing service from Katie
Katie Hartley at St Barts contacted me out of the blue a couple of months before my mortgage deal was about to expire and I'm so pleased that she did. Katie explained clearly all options to me, and has ensured that my new mortgage is in place just as my old one finishes and goes onto a much higher rate. I received a very professional and slick service and would highly recommend Katie, she is easy to work with and keeps regular contact, no chasing required from my side.
Rachel at St Bart’s
Rachel is the best at what she does. She made this process painless and easy. Highly recommend !!!
Thanks Andrea!
Andrea made the process of getting our first mortgage unbelievably easy and we couldn’t be more grateful for his help. As first time buyers he explained the process at every step and supported us throughout with both arranging the mortgage and also arranging insurance policies. Highly recommended for fellow first time buyers
Mark Burgess from St Bart’s Finance…
Mark Burgess from St Bart’s Finance helped me and my partner out so much and we couldn’t of asked for any better help, not even with just the mortgage but with many different questions about the whole process of buying a house. Was a very good experience and very much recommend using
Repeat customer excellent service
Richard and Darren have been most helpful in keeping me updated throughout the renewal of our mortgage, we highly recommend St Barts Finance.
Professional Service
The team at St Barts organised our first mortgage and also our remortgage 2 years later. On both occasions we received a professional service, everything was explained clearly and we felt supported throughout the process, would not hesitate to recommend them and we have on many occasions. Special thanks to Richard Walker and Daren Eaton.
The best
I have used st Bart’s finance many times for mortgages and Andrea is professional, knowledgable and helpful. He helped me through every step of the process.
I would recommend him and st Bart’s finance to anyone looking for a residential or b2l mortgage.
Thank you Andrea
There are no words to recommend Katie…
There are no words to recommend Katie Hartley highly enough. Her continued support through a year of searching after having secured me a mortgage I required, I am finally moving back onto the property ladder. Thank you Katie once again.
Mark Burgess has been a star
Mark Burgess has been a star - calm and thorough, quick results, and a lot of patience throughout a very long process. Thanks for all your help, and highly recommended!!
I highly recommend St Barts Finance
I highly recommend St Barts Finance, and especially our advisor, Tom Oliver. He was instrumental in making our mortgage process seamless.
Tom patiently held multiple calls to ensure we fully understood all the different options available to us, which gave us great confidence in our decision. He expertly organised all the required documentation, taking that burden off our shoulders. Furthermore, he answered all of our questions very promptly.
His professionalism, clarity, and efficiency truly made the whole process very easy. We couldn't be more pleased with the service.
St Bart’s Finance - Mortgage
We have recently moved into our new home, and we couldn't recommend Rachel Lines enough. Throughout the hellscape that was our buying journey, with our solicitors and estate agents she was the only constant reliable contact we knew we’d get a straight answer from in a timely fashion. Nothing was too much and she would take as much time as we needed to ask questions and understand our options.
Overall i don’t think we would be sitting in our home if it wasn’t for her help and advice, not with just the mortgage process but on how to deal with solicitors and estate agents.
Would 100% use again.
