“We asked Luther Yeates to help us finance our house purchase in Fulham, London. We needed some with experience in dealing with income in Euro. Luther was very good at swiftly identifying the best mortgage providers to allow this. His great link and access to the chosen Lender’s underwriting team meant that my mortgage was put in place in time and in a vert smooth way, including dealing with last minute necessary changes. We are extremely satisfied about Luther’s professionalism and the outcome of his work. We would definitely work with him again and we highly recommend him”
Mr. Maton
“It was the sheer professionalism which was standout from the off with this company, combined with the meticulous detail that was of paramount importance to me in regards to our financial scenario. The mortgage being dealt with was never going to be straight forward, however Luther was on hand out of hours and excelled in his communication making things much easier.I’ve worked with many consultants over the years through many economic headwinds, this was by far up there with a service level very rarely encountered.”
Christopher Martin
“Luther helped me secure the house I wanted to buy before I’d completed the sale of my previous house. He arranged a private bank loan, secured partially against both the old and new properties to cover the bridge period and then dealt with the refinancing of that loan into a traditional mortgage on the new property once the first property had sold. His communication was excellent throughout and the products he arranged were both a perfect fit for my requirements and, in my opinion, extremely cost effective.”
Dan Chester
“Consistently one of my top introducers: meticulous, clear, and considered one of the best in the industry.”Victoria Burlison, Investec Private Bank
