Outstanding service and help throughout

5
From the beginning of our contact with the Hanley we have received outstanding service and help. Buying a house is known as a very stressful experience and so having the support from both Jane and Clare really helped to give us the reassurance that our money was being safely and securely transferred for the house purchase and the mortgage deal we were offered was exactly what we were looking for. We have nothing but praise and thanks for all the help that we received. Reviewed on: 29th August 2024

We are writing to express our sincere gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Jane Longmore during our recent mortgage application process. Despite the complexities and length of the process, Jane’s professionalism, patience, and dedication were outstanding and truly appreciated. Janes thorough knowledge of the mortgage landscape were evident throughout our interactions. Jane consistently went above and beyond to ensure that we were wellinformed and comfortable with each step. Jane’s quick communication made such a significant difference to our experience in keeping us updated throughout. It’s unavoidable that mortgage applications can be a long drawn out process but we never felt out of the loop. We are grateful for Jane making what could have been a stressful process much smoother and more manageable. Please extend our thanks to Jane for her hard work and dedication. In light of Jane’s exceptional service, we highly encourage that she receives recognition for her work. Jane’s ability to maintain customer satisfaction, even when circumstances are less than ideal, is a rare quality that deserves commendation. We believe that acknowledging Jane’s efforts not only rewards her dedication but also sets a positive example for the entire team. Thank you once again for having such a valuable member on your team.
