A few extra comments

Mortgages – we can help.

Bridging loans – We can help.

Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.

Sometimes, we can negotiate an agreement that suits both sellers and buyers.

Sometimes, a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
