Greg was fantastic

Greg was fantastic. From start to finish, it was smooth and easy. We were having trouble getting our original broker to respond to our emails and calls (different company). So being put in contact with Strive was brilliant, and has helped us feel more relaxed about the whole mortgage process.

I highly recommend Greg's services

I would like to sincerely thank Greg at Strive Mortgages for his excellent service throughout our mortgage process.

He was professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond. Greg clearly explained each step, answered our questions patiently, and worked hard to secure the best possible outcome for me. He also helped to decide my offer prices for houses, As I am the first time buyer. His support made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Thank you, Greg, for your dedication and outstanding assistance. I highly recommend his services.

I’ve used Greg twice now for my mortgages and wouldn’t go anywhere else. He first helped me as a first-time buyer, making the whole process feel clear and manageable, so I was more than happy to return to him for my second purchase.

He’s professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating even taking evening calls to fit around my schedule despite how busy he is. I highly recommend Greg to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive mortgage broker.

Complete unresponsiveness

I got in touch with Strive in September 2025 and Jamie was very professional and friendly on the phone. He passed me on to Greg, who found us a couple of mortgage options that fitted our requirements. We sent over all the necessary paperwork in October. Emailed again in November - no reply. Emailed again in December - no reply. Finally emailed to say that we were tired of waiting for an update (or even a response) and would have to start the process again with a different company. I cc-ed this email to Strive's admin. Not only did I never hear back from Greg, I never heard back from Strive either. I would never use Strive again. Once bitten etc.

Jamie was incredible! Your go-to broker if you're self-employed

Jamie was incredible!!! And absolutely your go-to mortgage broker if you are self-employed. He was so knowledgeable and we always felt as though we were in safe hands, despite both my husband and I having complicated self-employed income. Jamie has a good relationship with the lenders and therefore, he knows exactly which lenders would work best for which borrowers. I honestly would never use a different broker ever again!

Highly recommend!

Jack was fantastic to work with from start to finish. He was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive throughout the whole process.

My situation wasn’t straightforward, but Jack took the time to fully understand it and worked hard to find the right solution. His communication was clear and reassuring, which made everything feel much less stressful.

I’m very grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a mortgage broker, and will most certainly be reaching out again in the near future.

Good initial Consultation call

I've just had a quick call with Greg after being quickly referred to strive by a local Estate Agents and getting a WhatsApp and meeting setup the same day. He was knowledgeable, open and easy to talk through our needs, what he could do. He quickly assessed that we were actually better off sticking with our current mortgage lender but would contact him to help if things were to change in the future.

Jamie is absolutely fab

Jamie is absolutely fab - I'll never use a different mortgage broker again! He has helped me with two quite complicated mortgages now and has offered great advice and guided me through it making the whole process feel quite easy :) Greg also helped out with life insurance and was equally as brilliant - I feel confident that if we did ever need to claim he would be at the end of the phone to help us.
Thanks both :) x
