We couldn’t ask for a better person to help us he went out of his way over and over and over again. But still come back and help us even more. Paul, we appreciate everything you’ve done for us. You’re the best mortgage advisor we ever could ever ask for. Thank you for all your help.

Laura was amazing helping us with our remortgage. As both me and my husband are directors of our family business it can sometimes be a bit tricky getting a mortgage. Laura was fantastic, liaising with the bank, providing us updates. We couldn't be happier.

We needed to arrange a residential remortgage and a new buy to let mortgage at the same time. The new quotes we had received from our existing mortgage lenders were scarily high. I contacted Stonebrook and I am so glad I did, the whole process was seamless, stress free and speedy. We've managed to lock a great % deal in advance thanks to Paul's knowledge, efficiency and expertise, which gives us peace of mind with the current fluctuating interest rates. Really impressed with the service and would certainly recommend, thank you!

Laura has been a tremendous help in the buying process. Explaining things along the way and ensuring I have secured the best possible rates. As someone who is self employed I have struggled to secure competitive mortgage deals. Laura made everything so much easier and even made sure to get in touch ahead of my remortgage to avoid being stung by rate increases this year.

Laura recently helped me obtain a mortgage on my first home. Not having the best of credit I was worried about the process and obtaining the mortgage however Laura was quick at coming back regarding any enquiries I had, explained things properly and made the whole process so much easier. The mortgage was secured very quickly and I’d recommend Laura to anybody else in the future!

I was recommended Laura as a mortgage advisor who first thing she had to do was provide some paperwork in less than 24 hours after my previous mortgage advisor had refused. Not only did she complete that task, she then went above and beyond to find the ONE mortgage that was available and allowed me to keep my home. I would not be typing this now from my living room if not for her tenacity and dedication. She is the advisor who badgers companies, solicitors and myself when I forgot something, to get things done and she always contacted me each time keeping me informed. I saved her number in my phone as “Laura the mortgage hero”, that should say it all. If a big pile of problems builds up she munches through them in no time.

We had a great experience with Laura Barrett, who helped us to successfully buy our first home. From the initial phonecall, Laura was warm, personable and helpful. She clearly explained information required and was really responsive in answering my questions- and I had a lot!More than anything though, she made the whole process a pleasant one and took the 'fear' away for us. We'd seen a couple of mortgage advisors previously who made getting a mortgage sound painful and doom and gloom due to one of us being self employed, this had actually put us off even trying previously! However, my brother had used Laura to help him get on the property ladder and since he'd had a positive experience and recommended her, we decided to make contact.I'm so glad we did. We recently completed on our first home with the help and support of Laura. She is genuinely interested and invested in helping you get your home and I would highly recommend her services

We bought a new property and Paul was very quick in providing advice and securing us a mortgage deal before rates went up. Getting in touch was straightforward and we could select the options that work for us including life cover. Overall very professional and I should say that Paul has massively helped in the past as well. I highly recommend getting in touch!

Laura is amazing! Not only does she listen and understand your specific needs but she also organises everything behind the scenes to ensure that, at a usually stressful time of mortgage acceptance, everything is perfect and in place. And she does it all with the most friendly disposition… but professional to the core! Thank you … you are amazing. I wouldn’t go anywhere else x
