Review of the Marsden Building Society, Mortgages:

Mortgage for Expats

5
In 2020 Marsden were one of the few UK lenders willing to offer mortgages to Expats, who were looking to re-purchase a home in the UK (which became a necessity post Brexit). Rates were competitive and lending criteria was sensible. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2025

Excellent service

5
We were very impressed with the attitude and efficiency of the Marsden Building Society. Their staff were approachable, helpful and responded promptly to our emails. We received regular updates during the application process too. Reviewed on: 25th April 2022

Great customer service

5
I have been impressed with The Marsden Building Society because it is easy to speak to some-one on the telephone re any concerns/questions, not something readily available these days. The website was easy to negotiate and use also, but good to have some personal service if required. Reviewed on: 4th April 2022

Excellent, excellent, excellent!

Fantastic

5
We have renewed our mortgage on several occasions with The Marsden. On each occasion their product offering has been the cheapest - we always shop around. The whole process is really straight forward and simple. Added to this their levels of customer service are fantastic. They are one of the best companies it has been our pleasure to deal with. Can’t recommend enough. Reviewed on: 9th March 2022

Offers produced but poor back office organisation

2
Whilst we received the offer eventually, Marsden's internal communication is such that we would receive updates that weren't correct. No single underwriter deals with a case so we repeatedly received the same request despite answering the same questions repeatedly. the requirement for wet signatures is extremely outdated and I believe Marsden are the only BS to need this nowadays. It is poor security and leads to delays as it did on this case. We find that whilst Marsden do eventually produce an offer, and are therefore reliable. Every application takes such an unpredictable pat once submitted that it's extremely hard to keep the client properly informed of progress. Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

Professional and Efficient
