Buying a property is the biggest financial investment most of us will ever make and we want our customers to have access to the best financial advice - so we launched smartmortgages*.

Our mortgage consultant, Louise Lewis, has worked in the financial services industry since 2003 and provides independent financial advice on mortgages, helping you work out which one will suit your requirements the best.

We have also teamed up with local company Premier Independent Investments, who have been operating since 1996, so that we can offer our customers professional financial advice and exclusive mortgage solutions. Louise and Premier Independent Investments can also help you with a wide range of financial advice including retirement planning, personal and business protection, inheritance tax and estate planning, investment planning and equity release.

*smartmortgages is a trading style of Premier Independent Investment UK Limited which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Your home or other property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
