Embrace Financial Service provided good service in reference to my home mortgage. Mr Usamah was my in contact person in Embrace Financial Service. He is amazing person in responding of queries and emails replies. He is very quick to get right mortgage package. But offcourse services/response might be different from case to case. But I will recommend him for your new home.

We have used Darren Woodley; our mortgage broker for years and I would never change. He helped us with our first mortgage when we were young and didnt understand anything, to our mortgage again on our third house 7 years on. This mortgage was probably the most chaotic as I left it so last minute and with some kind of miracle and Darren going above and beyond, he managed to turn it around in record time so we could be in with our 3 small children in time for Christmas. If he hadn't then we would have been stuffed as the rest of the chain needed to move pre-christmas. He's very helpful, always explains it well and talks you through it all and is so patient (expecially as I'm usually a chaotic world-wind). Hes always in popular demand and i can see why, but always manages to squeeze us in. Thank you so much for always making it so straight forward for us !
This is my third time working with Embrace Financial Services, and specifically with Lisa Cummings, for my mortgage
This is my third time working with Embrace Financial Services, and specifically with Lisa Cummings, for my mortgage needs. I've navigated everything from being a first-time buyer, to remortgaging, selling my property, and securing a new mortgage. Each time, the service has been absolutely outstanding. Lisa goes above and beyond to hunt down the best deals tailored to my situation and patiently walks me through the long-term implications of each option, ensuring I make an informed decision without any rush or pressure to settle on the first one.
Her communication—whether via email, phone, or in-person—is always crystal clear, easy to understand, and incredibly responsive. If you're looking for reliable, stress-free mortgage advice, I can't recommend Lisa and Embrace enough! 5 stars all the way.

YOUR PROPERTY MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE.
Your initial mortgage appointment is without obligation. We normally charge a fee for our services; however, it is payable only on the submission of your mortgage application. The fee will depend on your circumstances but our standard fee is £599. Complex cases usually attract a higher fee. We will discuss and agree the fee with you prior to submitting any mortgage application.
