John Skipp - Mortgage Advice Bureau, Thornbury - Bristol

A

John really did go above and beyond for us in our first ever mortgage application and life insurance policy as first time buyers. He took the stress completely out of the process especially as our circumstances weren’t entirely straightforward. John took any of our curve ball questions in his stride and nothing was too much trouble!
He is personable and friendly, taking time to explain things in terms that we can understand. He is also not pushy in the slightest - we decided to take out our own buildings insurance separately which John was completely fine with.
Communication was excellent keeping us updated throughout.
We would DEFINITELY recommend John to anyone requiring a mortgage or insurance. We will certainly be returning when it’s time for renewal!

Coming from another country and knowing absolutely nothing about how buying a house works here, my wife and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide than John.

He was kind, down-to-earth, and endlessly patient—somehow making the 4D chess game of getting a mortgage and buying a home feel not only manageable, but actually kind of exciting.

No matter how silly or panicked our questions were (and believe me, there were some real head-scratchers), John always made time for us—never once making us feel like we were asking too much.

John’s fantastic, and we’d recommend him without hesitation… well, to anyone we actually like, I should say.

John helped me with my first mortgage a few years ago, and has just helped me again with my new place. I always recommend John to all my friends when they’re looking for mortgage advice - great, friendly service with attention to detail and genuine care for you! I’ll be speaking to John in a few years time when I need to remortgage!

I would urge anyone needing mortgage advice to get in touch with John. He has just helped
my two daughters buy their first flat and he was brilliant. Their circumstances were
not straightforward and he worked so hard to get them a mortgage. I don’t think he could have worked any harder on his own mortgage. And he was a delight to have involved. Thank you John.

Fantastic guy. John Skipp went above and beyond in helping us to secure our first house. We had loads of issues with our solicitors, and John went out of his way, taking on duties well outside of his job role to help us navigate them. He gave the best mortgage advice for our situation and helped us find the best deals for home and life insurance as well.

Me and my partner recently purchased our first property with the help of John. John explained the whole process to us which allowed us to understand exactly what would happen and when with a step by step cost breakdown. A great thing about John is that he wasn’t too pushy, if we didn’t like something he was more than happy to look at other options and advise accordingly. John was regularly available even after 6pm which worked amazingly for us! We can’t recommend John enough.

Thank you!

John is a great chap. Helped me through quite the mortgage application. He is very knowledgable, helpful and went above and beyond to get me over the line. Would highly recommend. Thanks John.

Myself and my partner used John for our first house purchase. We were completely new to the process and John guided us through every step making all a lot less daunting for us. We had several houses fall through but John supported us through them and got us there in the end! 10/10 will definitely be using John again when your fixed term is up and recommending him to friends.
