After a divorce, lots of questions arise all at once: what can you manage on a single income, and what does that mean for the coming years?
The story of {names}
After nearly 23 years together, we decided to split up. From that moment on, I found myself with lots of questions.
What happens next? What’s the maximum mortgage I can get on my own? What’s our current house worth? Can I keep my favourable interest rate? What will my monthly repayments be, and can I actually afford them in the current climate? And what will those monthly repayments look like over the coming years? For example, will I still be able to afford renovation costs in the future?
From day one, Tom helped me find peace of mind and calm amidst all my questions. He set about sorting everything out for me and, by our second meeting, he already had a plan with answers to my questions.
He showed me my options in a clear and straightforward way. As a result, despite the divorce, I left feeling cheerful. It gave me a sense of reassurance and I knew what steps to take next.
Thanks to his clear explanation, I knew what my options were. That made the decision to buy again a quick one. Owning a home gives me a greater sense of security.
I’ve now bought my new home. I’m really pleased it isn’t a run-down property. I’ll be moving in after three weeks, and our old house will go to the next buyer.
I look back fondly on my dealings with Tom and his colleagues. They gave me peace of mind and clear advice.
Another thing I really loved was that, just after I’d bought my new home, Tom sent me a text to ask if everything had gone well and to wish me luck with the DIY.

Noor and Justin want to buy a new home together. The question is: can they keep Justin’s old home and let it out, or would it be wiser to sell it?
Book a free consultation. Just a good chat about your situation.
The first consultation is, of course, free of charge. We’ll discuss your situation, plans and any questions you may have, and see how we can help you. We’ll then explain what the next steps are, and any costs that may be involved. That way, you’ll know exactly where you stand from the outset.
Yes. We are not tied to any one bank or insurer, and we do not work on commission. We are familiar with all the providers, their costs and their terms and conditions. We’ll look at which provider best suits your situation.
Think about what you’d like to discuss and what plans or questions you have. A rough overview of your income, fixed expenses and any mortgage will help us get started, but it isn’t essential for the first meeting.
Would you like specific advice during the first meeting? If so, it would be helpful if you could bring your payslip, a statement of your savings, a list of your loans, etc., or send them to us in advance.
If you’d like, we can set up your account on the client portal in advance so you can upload documents. Please let us know when you book your appointment, and we’ll create an account for you.
