From the very first contact through (what was a complex and hugely frustrating conveyancing process), to the day of completion, Oak Mortgages were the shining light that got us through. Sarah and her team were brilliant. They were responsive, caring, empathetic, knowledgeable, professional, and human at each and every stage. We are so grateful that we used Sarah and Oak Mortgages and highly recommend them to anyone wanting to guarantee that authentic, trustworthy approach from professionals who care. A top class act - 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to Abby and the admin team at Oak Mortgages who have been fantastic in helping me secure a remortgage on my property. From my first phone call to Abby I was filled with confidence and the experience with the team was brilliant, especially when other companies involved were not so brilliant the Oak Mortgage team pulled out all the stops to make sure completion happened. I would highly recommend this company and will use their services in the future. Thank you again.

Alex at Oak Mortgages has been an absolute life-saver. After being let down by a previous mortgage advisor who wanted me to take a massive risk with no guarantees, I contacted Oak Mortgages and was put in touch with Alex. ​Not only did he find me a mortgage with the exact same lender without having to take that risk, but he also got me accepted! His knowledge is top-notch, his communication is brilliant—he always picked up the phone and replied to emails super fast with regular updates. As a first-time buyer, Alex was hands-down the best part of the entire buying process. ​I am now happily settled in my new home, and I have Alex to thank for it. I will 100% be using Oak Mortgages again in the future (and hopefully Alex!). Thank you so much!

Self build mortgage –
helping you to secure finance to build your own home

If you’re planning on building a property, you’ll need to take out a self-build mortgage, which provides funding at various stages of development – rather than in one lump sum.  Whether you have built several properties before – or planning your first self-build to construct a new dream home, we could help secure a mortgage that’s right for you.

There are different ways in which this money can be released and your choice of product will depend on your own particular circumstances. This is why it is better to speak to us as early in your project as possible.

  • Mortgages available from £25,000 to £2million
  • Finance available for all types of build, including brand new houses on undeveloped land, rebuilds and homes within the grounds of your existing property
  • We may be able to help even if you have bad credit
