Excellent mortgage advice and work

Professional, quick to respond, when we got held up from the other side Leta pushed hard to get paperwork through. Buying a house can be stressful- having Leta on my side made it a smooth process.

When we purchased a property recently, we did not hesitate to instruct Stephen Rimmers. They are highly professional and communication is excellent. The process was problem free and Leta Kerin and her team looked after us fantastically well. At all times we felt we were in 'safe hands'. A BIG thank you to the conveyancing team. We would highly recommend Stephen Rimmers.
