Independent, whole of market, mortgage and insurance advice

I would totally recommend 1st Call 4 Mortgages, very professional service. Des was fantastic at arranging our mortgage, even calming me down when our first house fell through, he sorted it all out and even had to re-do the mortgage. Would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family.

I used Des to obtain a mortgage for me. He did this quickly and efficiently. As a true professional, Des asked all the right questions and from there he found the best mortgage for us and delivered the product in a timely fashion. I would happily recommend Des to anyone seeking a mortgage who wants a good deal arranged in a highly professional manner

1st Call 4 Mortgages arranged a bridging loan to meet short term funding needs. The process was far from straight forward, but Des Tourick’s knowledge and patience removed much of the anxiety from the experience. I would not hesitate to recommend Des’ services, as I am confident he will continue to deliver well above the call of duty.

1st Call 4 Mortgages are professional, highly proficient and experienced mortgage advisors. They showed total commitment and responded to all calls and emails without delay. They were able to negotiate a mortgage at an much lower rate than any other mortgage advisor had advised was their “best offer”. Will definitely use them again!

I was apprehensive using a person I did not know, but Des at 1st Call 4 Mortgages put me at my ease, and ‘held my hand’ during the whole process, and got me a fantastic mortgage deal I would never have found myself. I cannot thank him enough for helping me achieve my target. I recommend him 100% to anyone who is thinking about a mortgage or insurances.

Des is an exceptional mortgage broker. He helps people to find the best possible deals even if it takes quite a lot of his time. Helping people in situations where other brokers would refuse to help. Very experienced, trustworthy, efficient, patient. I am very happy that I have asked Des to find me a mortgage. If you are looking for a broker you can trust, definitely, give Des a call.

I consider Des an essential partner to my ambitions for building a property portfolio. My situation is complex, I am both the Director of a limited company and own an existing property with an outstanding mortgage. After consulting numerous mortgage brokers, all of whom said it wouldn’t be possible to purchase another property, Des was able to find a way. Cheesy comments aside, if property is your chosen investment then Des can help turn the impossible into a reality.

Des helped make organising a mortgage really easy, simple , and stress free saving us lots of time as he did all of the research for us. Unfortunately our first choice house went to another buyer so we had many adjustments and reviews to tweak the mortgage product suited to our needs and the property we eventually purchased. Des never complained about doing the regular tweaks and reviews maintaining a ‘can do’ attitude, exactly what we needed. Des was a great help and we have already referred him to friends of ours for when they are ready to start the property search.

Being a first time buyer, not only was I unfamiliar with the process involved in buying a property, but I also felt unsure of which mortgage product would be best for me. When I spoke to 1st Call for Mortgages, they gave me an early indication of what would best suit me, and then guided me through the process making the grey areas clear, and taking a lot of the pain out of the application process. I hope to use 1st Call for Mortgages again in the future and would recommend them to a friend – certainly a first time buyer – who could really take advantage of their guidance, as I did.

We would like give a huge thank you to Des for his constant (and without doubt, very time consuming) determination in obtaining a re-mortgage for us. In spite of the number of different issues that our present financial circumstances presented us with – (and it did for a while seem like it was ‘one thing after another’) we got there. Throughout the process Des always remained positive that we would ‘get there in the end’ and he was right – we did! Des, you are a true professional, determined to never let the little ‘set backs’ get in your way and finish the job you started. We would be more than happy to recommend you to anyone we know looking for a mortgage or re-mortgage and also for the insurance for the mortgage protection which was sorted quickly and efficiently. Thanks so much for all your effort.

Des is a life saver. He managed to help me secure my next property purchase in what were very difficult conditions. Actually he was the only one who came up with a workable solution. Cannot recommend him and 1st Call 4 Mortgages enough. Gold Star!

I have known Des for over 20 years now and in the time he has never failed to get me a great deal whether it be for a mortgage, life assurance, critical illness, mortgage protection etc. He has always been helpful and courteous and, quite frankly, head and shoulders above any other financial advisor I have had contact with. I would not hesitate in recommending his services to anyone seeking good, proficient financial advice
