It was a pleasure to work with Louis and Zoe throughout my mortgage application, and the whole team at Orton Financial made the entire process smooth and helped ease any concerns and anxieties. They are experts in assisting with expat applications and were able to answer all my questions quickly and clearly. Wouldn't hesitate in dealing with Orton again should the need ever arise.

Louis helped us with a recent mortgage which completed on time, with no issues. This was despite challenging circumstances, short timeframes, and us being based overseas. Louis was very responsive, knowledgeable, and he got us a great rate. His advice was clear and practical, and having worked with many brokers, we were particularly impressed with Louis and the team. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a broker.

Once In a while you meet someone who is exceptional at what they do, Louis is exceptional! Unique circumstance as we were buying back home from out of the country. Louis was able to get the job done and get us a mortgage at the same rate like we lived locally. Clear understanding, impeccable and constant communication. Can’t thank these guys enough. Louis and Orton have some life long clients here, Craig and Nicole.

This review is a bit belated — but better late than never. I don’t leave many reviews, but Louis and the Orton Team absolutely deserve a special mention. Having dealt with many service providers as an expat, I’d rank the service they provided us last summer right at the top. Professional, punctual, and genuinely tailored to the customer. Thanks, Louis and team, for the excellent support and a great overall experience.
