Fantastic Customer Care

I have been mortgage searching for a little while and after talking to Richard from Family Building Society I feel clear and confident about the information provided. He clearly explained all my options and made me feel at ease with regards to explaining any unfamiliar terms used. He went above and beyond to ensure that I understood all the provided information and was happy to answer any of my questions. I am so happy with the quality of care from this company and I will be recommending them to my friends and family. Reviewed on: 15th June 2021

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

A very clear and concise explanation of the mortgage deals available.

I am in the process of setting a new mortgage deal and had some ideas on either a repayment or interest only deal whilst also making a one off payment to reduce the current mortgage. Recognising that Richard could not offer me financial advice what he was able to do was provide clarity on the numerous products available to me , which in turn allowed me to make my decision. As I pondered the various deals Richard set up a few calls that allowed me to raise any further questions. Throughout these calls Richard was always courteous, professional and supportive with a clear desire to ensure I could make an informed decision. Thank you Reviewed on: 14th June 2021
