Always Excellent Service

As a Mortgage Broker, I tend to place a number of my more obscure cases with Family Building Society. The service from the beginning is always excellent and remains so throughout the course of the transaction, and not only for me as the broker, but also for the client too. Before placing a mortgage with Family BS, I tend to contact Joana R to discuss everything with her before moving forward. She is precise with her information and goes above and beyond to make the case work. I have and will continue to recommend Family BS to my colleagues. Reviewed on: 15th June 2021
