Complicated mortgage products made understandable. As a first time self-builder the task before you can be daunting, particularly when purchase finance against existing property is involved even before... Read more Reviewed on: 26th February 2026

SVR not come down after 3 interest rate cuts. SVR not come down after 3 interest rate cuts. Savings rates have come down. SVR goes up immediately interest rates go up. Gross profiteering imo. Reviewed on: 25th March 2025

Highly Recommend

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

Excellent experience for first time buyer

Thoroughly helpful team to deal with and a very smooth procedure. Was assisted all the way throughout the mortgage application over the phone and by email. Great rates for first time buyers and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a first time mortgage. Reviewed on: 2nd August 2017

Both my sister and I used the Hanley Economical for our first mortgages and would in no doubt recommend Debbie to anyone, she was really helpful and made what is a very stressful process easy. Thanks Debbie. Reviewed on: 26th July 2017

Debbie Ward is a credit to the Hanley!

My other half and I recently came to the Hanley looking for a shared ownership mortgage having been messed about by brokers. As I am a Paraplanner, I thought I could probably analyse the market myself! Hanley had a very competitive rate so we decided we'd have a chat. The man I spoke to first (I can't recall his name sorry) was very helpful and we booked in to see a mortgage adviser. From the moment we met Debbie she was warm and welcoming and guided us through the whole process expertly and as first time buyers that was such a relief. She kept us informed every step of the way and even though we haven't moved in yet (we complete on 26th July) she's always been on hand to answer questions and even give the lazy solicitor a nudge or two! She has been fantastic and a real asset to the Hanley's team. We can't thank her enough for guiding us through what can be a stressful and emotional journey. I'd have no hesitation in recommending the Hanley to anyone. Such a great experience which I can only sincerely thank Debbie for. Reviewed on: 20th July 2017

Outstanding
