We have used Village Financial Services for years. They are friendly, professional and extremely knowledgeable. We wouldn't go anywhere else for our insurances and mortgage. We trust them implicitly.

Fantastic Service! Village Financial Services are A+ rated broker. We dealt with Craig for a Re-mortgaging exercise which was very complicated. The complexities and intricacies involved with this mortgage case were very different from a usual case but Craig explored different avenues. The seamless and efficient manner in which Craig operated gave us confidence. Their USP was to provide good input, listen to our concerns and ultimately deliver an efficient service. Renewed via them in 2023 May. Again the level of service was very good, brilliant attitude, panel of lenders and work ethic. Keep it up!!!

Really friendly and helpful in helping us get through our mortgage. Have used them before and they explained to me everything I needed to know and was more than happy to come back to them again. Craig would contact us throughout the whole progress to see how we were getting on and was even able to get us a cheaper rate just before we completed which has helped save us a bit of money over the next couple of years. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend Village Financial Services, it's been an absolute pleasure working with Craig. Buying the first property can be stressful sometimes especially during covid and volatile interest rates but Craig and the whole team made it extremely easy, I will definitely use their services again in the future!
