Why choose Benchmark Mortgages as your Financial Advisor?

Manshil from Benchmark Mortgages Limited

The answer is simple: I have gone through the home-buying journey myself and can share my experiences and expertise with all my clients.

Having bought my first property over ten years ago and a few more properties over the years, I have gone through numerous scenarios in the buying-selling process.

I have gone through an open bridge application and a same-day settlement. I know what can go wrong and how stressful it can be.

This is where I make the process as seamless as possible for my clients. The Benchmark service does not stop on the approval of your loan or when we confirm the loan structure to your bank, it is a long-term partnership.

When clients come through looking for funding for renovations or seeking construction funding, I can share my experiences and let them know realistic time frames, costs involved, and what lenders look for as I have been there myself.

The process of doing a house renovation or a construction project can be difficult which is why it is crucial to have the right team behind you.

At Benchmark Mortgages we provide solutions to our customer's problems. We are out-of-the-box mortgage advisors, which is why many of our clients come through to secure specific funding requirements.
