Can’t recommend my mortgage adviser Lana Beech highly enough! Throughout the process she was knowledgeable, professional, personable and efficient. I found the Hanley RIO product attractive as there are no penalty charges for early repayment. Reviewed on: 2nd October 2024

Lana Beech at The Hanley Economic has been absolutely fantastic with supporting Myself and my Partner when applying for a Mortgage with The Hanley & Porting our current Mortgage with them. She has made the process seem easy and nothing has never been too much trouble even though there has been a few issues along the way due to the Solicitor Reports we received from the previous property we were going to purchase. The House Buying process can be quite stressful as a Young Couple due to not knowing the process fully and Lana has always been on hand to support and being professional with whatever questions we have had. Thank you to Lana & The Hanley for assisting us with all enquiries, we would 100% recommend. Reviewed on: 20th February 2020

Treated like someone who matters

Lana, our mortgage advisor was friendly, supportive and efficient. She went out of her way to meet with us and to make sure that we had everything we needed to process the paperwork quickly. Whilst the paperwork was being processed, she stayed in touch with us and we were confident that if we had any questions, they would be answered quickly. Despite a 6 week completion date being imposed on us at the offer stage, as soon as we met with Lana and the team we knew that she would do everything possible to meet it and we could stop stressing. Even our solicitor commented how good the Hanley have been to work with and the whole process - offer to completion has been done in 6 weeks. I cannot recommend the Hanley and Lana enough. Thank you.

Staff at the Hanley have been amazing - they went out of their way to ensure I had a mortgage in principle in time for our house viewing. Once we had made our offer we were on a very short timescale which we couldn't have met without staff changing their appointments to meet with us and being able to submit documentation remotely. There has been supportive communication through e-mail - not at all intrusive and a definite feeling that they were on our side working to get us into out new house. The whole process was completed within the 6 weeks specified by the vendor. I cannot recommend the Hanley enough. Thank you Reviewed on: 12th December 2019

Going the extra mile

I tried different mortgage advisors to arrange a self build mortgage and each of them were unable to help. I eventually found the Hanley Economic Building Society myself and I was expecting the same answer that I had from all the other lenders that I had spoken to. From my first telephone call with them, they gave me confidence that they were going to be able to help me and they did. The staff have all gone above and beyond to help me and I even call them now just to see how they are and to have a chat. I have never experienced this sort of customer service from a bank or building society. The whole mortgage team, underwriting team and all that were involved with my application deserve a medal for their help. Reviewed on: 21st November 2019

Fantastic experience from start to finish.

We contacted The Hanley directly as we were buying a new build property and wanted to take out a 95% mortgage. Unfortunately most high street lenders do not offer a 95% LTV on a new build property, but as soon as we contacted them to make an enquiry, they arranged a call back with a mortgage adviser. Danielle Cope was the mortgage adviser who dealt with us and she was so helpful and friendly throughout. She gave us some great advice and plenty of options on the type of mortgage term and rate. After the application was submitted, the underwriting team were fantastic and very efficient. Every time we called we were able to speak with the underwriters directly, and we were made to feel like our application was important, and not just another number. Would highly recommend.
