Darren couldn't have done anymore to get the remortgage over the line. The best broker I have ever come across. Excellent communications throughout. It was a very complex process and set of circumstances that would have put many a broker off but Darren was with us all the way to get it done.

Outstanding Support from Secta Finance

We applied for a second mortgage to help with school fees, and Darren made the entire process smooth and straightforward. He provided exceptional guidance, ensured all the details were handled perfectly, and kept us informed every step of the way. His responsiveness and clear communication were outstanding, and the result was exactly what we needed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and will certainly return if we need assistance with a renewal in the future.

Complex 2nd mortgage

Applied for a particularly complex 2nd mortgage to support with school fees. Darren was excellent in guiding me through the process and ensuring everything was in place to apply for the mortgage. Very responsive. Great communication. And a great outcome. Would definitely recommend and will definitely use again if I need to renew in the future.

Second charge mortgage

Mr Darren Perry , our mortgage advisor was very helpful and guided us through the process that enabled us in securing a loan. We would definitely recommend Secta finance and hope to use them in future as well.

Great experience

I reached out to Secta Finance for a secured loan on our property, and Darren helped us throughout the process. He was calm, professional, and always available when needed. We had an issue with electronic identification, and he made sure we passed on our final attempt by checking the photos I had taken of our IDs. The main thing I liked about Darren is that he ensured we got the best deal, and with all his help, the process was completed quickly and successfully.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Darren for second mortgage , and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for his expertise and support throughout the loan application process. From the moment I reached out, it was clear that I was in capable hands.

The loan application I was dealing with was quite complicated, filled with numerous challenges and potential pitfalls. However, Darren approached each issue with a level of professionalism and patience that was truly commendable. He took the time to thoroughly explain every step, ensuring that I understood what was happening and why. His ability to break down complex financial jargon into easily digestible information made the entire process much less daunting.

What stood out the most was Darren's approachability. No matter how many questions I had—big or small—he was always willing to help, responding promptly and with a positive attitude. It was refreshing to work with someone who genuinely cares about their clients and goes above and beyond to resolve any issues that arise. His updates were timely and comprehensive, keeping me informed and reassured at every stage.

Darren’s patience throughout this process was invaluable. He never made me feel rushed or pressured, which made a significant difference in my experience. It’s rare to find someone who combines expertise with such a personable demeanor.

If you’re looking for someone in mortgages application who will truly advocate for you and guide you through the complexities of your financial needs, I highly recommend Darren. His dedication and support made all the difference for me, and I am confident he will do the same for you. Thank you, Darren, for everything!

Second time we have used Secta Finance

Second time we have used Secta Finance. This time for a bridging loan. Again a reasonably straight forward process. A friendly yet professional service, and Darren was always on hand for any questions we had. Would use again if or when required.

Valued with Simplicity

Service, Patience and Understanding were instrumental to the never-ending questions I had for this team. A calming demeanour from Milika assured us, when faced with overwhelming force-fed emails of legal documentation and its boggling jargon, that we were never alone when trying to decipher it all.

Felt Valued and never a burden to this company.
