EXCELLENT Based on 73 reviews Posted on Google Laura RedmondTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sarah from Oak Mortgages was incredible throughout my journey as a first time buyer. She was always very clear and precise when explaining the process at the different stages throughout. No question, email or call was never not welcomed. She was always at the end of the phone or email to reply to any queries I had. The rest of the team were also great to send an email to update or communicate anything needed too. I would highly recommend Oak Mortgages to anyone who is a first time buyer or buying again. The professionalism, communication and support they give is incredible. It made me buying my first home a pleasant experience overall.Posted on Google maddie ryanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
