Karen was so great. My knowledge of all things mortgage related wasnt good, and Karen was patient and non judgemental to this. She was supportive, understanding and explained it all clearly

Amazing service from the team at IMAB. Want to thank Karen and Emily for their help throughout the process. Very supportive, knowledgeable, patient and professional team, would highly recommend them to anyone. We've had some challenges with sellers during the process however IMAB have been wonderful in securing us a mortgage every time. Karen Ramirez has been amazing helping us to navigate through the most difficult and stressful times providing the best options and listening to our issues attentively and with so much care. Wishing Karen, Emily and the rest of the team continued success.

We've worked with Carol @ IMAB on two different house purchases now over the course of around 5 years, and she's been fantastic for both. She helped us (two people who are 'maths challenged') understand the basics; find a good deal and manage our finances/mortgage appropriately -- as well as being wonderful to chat to and extremely attentive / on-the-ball when a new rate might be available. Can't recommend her enough. Thank you Carol & all the team at IMAB

Excellent sound financial advice. Darren took time to understand my needs and I was never rushed or felt like being bounced into any decision. Genuinely friendly and helpful professional service.

There are no words to say how this company has helped us, throughout the years and especially this year with the sale and purchase of our new home. Karen has been incredible to say the least!! We have been with them since 2015 and they have saved us a lot of money in the process with their advice. Their immense professionalism and attentiveness is a great asset and always a joy to deal with such people.
Highly highly recommended!!!

We’ve used IMAB a few times now and they are our go-to choice and recommendation.
We’ve mostly dealt with Karen, but have everyone we speak to be extremely helpful, often taking the time to go over details which could easily be missed, as well as making sure we got the best deal
possible for our situation.
As freelancers, my wife and I struggled with other advisers, especially those placed in estate agencies, and really appreciated the frank and independent advice given.
I shall contacting them again when my mortgage deal expires and I know I’m going to get the best deal.

Really knowledgeable and approachable team. Communication was prompt and the use of their online platform made providing required information and documents very straightforward.

Karen at IMAB is honestly one of the most helpful, consistent and hardworking people I have ever had the pleasure to deal with. She was always on the ball, answered all our questions and always kept us up to date throughout the whole moving and mortgage process. And the rest of the admin team were just top tier for providing answers and keeping us informed with news from mortgage lender.
Without IMAB being our mortgage broker I don't think we could of got through the whole process.
Would highly recommend IMAB and the Team, all of them are very kind and always on hand to help!
5 stars for sure!

Brilliant! A colleague recommended I speak to Karen for mortgage advice when buying my first home and I would recommend anyone else to do the same. I had regular contact with Karen, everything was explained so well and clearly and nothing was too much trouble (or a silly question). Thank you

Communication is always the key. Karen made complex communications simple.
We appreciate this. Despite this digital age we were able to navigate the complexity with relative ease.

Effective and professional advice from Dan as always.

I would recommend IMAB to anyone who needs advice in regards to their mortgage, Karen and Emily helped me throughout my process and the service I received was amazing, responses were fast and helpful in giving me all information I needed and helping me with any questions I had along the way.

I used IMAB 5 years ago after they were recommended by a colleague and they did not disappoint. I was constantly kept up to date and couldn’t speak to someone whenever I wanted. So when my mortgage renewal came up, it was an easy decision and the service was excellent once again. Highly recommend!

Reply from Independent Mortgage Advice Bureau (IMAB) Ltd
I was very satisfied with the service provided by Dan. He explored all available options for me and selected the most suitable one. The process was quick, and I received my mortgage offer within a few weeks.
This is definitely a place I would return to — in fact, we already have an appointment booked with Dan for our re-mortgage.

Reply from Independent Mortgage Advice Bureau (IMAB) Ltd
Dan was helpful and thorough throughout our remortgage process providing clear and accurate information at all times. Highly recommended for anyone looking for independent mortgage advice.
