We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Tembo and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Jess and Gemma have both been incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, making what could have been a stressful journey feel smooth and manageable. Jess in particular has been an informative and supportive presence from start to finish. As first-time buyers, there was so much we didn’t know, but she took the time to explain everything clearly and patiently. She always made herself available to answer our questions and queries, no matter the time of day, which made a huge difference and gave us real peace of mind. Gemma was also brilliant, ensuring everything stayed on track and providing consistent support along the way. Together they made us feel genuinely cared for and supported, not just like another case number. Thank you so much to the whole Tembo team, and especially Jess and Gemma, for helping us through such an important milestone. We’re extremely grateful! Read more Read less

Luke Bustin and Elly Bradshaw at Tembo were brilliant throughout my house purchase. They were always friendly, approachable, and happy to explain things clearly, which made the whole process feel far less stressful. My application had a few complexities, but they handled everything smoothly and kept me well informed at each stage. I felt genuinely supported from start to finish and would happily recommend Luke, Elly, and Tembo to other first-time buyers. Read more Read less

I found Tembo online when looking for a mortgage broker as a first time buyer. Following an initial conversation to address my needs I was allocated Glen Fulham as my mortgage broker. From the beginning he worked tirelessly to get me a mortgage that would suit my needs and in under 21 days I received my mortgage over. I have also had the please of working with Callum Doherty as my case manager, overseeing the process post mortgage application. Both of them have been approachable, quick to respond to emails and queries and excellent in keeping me updated. I have been listened to throughout the whole process, they have made it so easy. I would recommend them to everyone and anyone. Read more Read less
