Brooklands CF & The Mortgage Explorer Arvostelua 

I had an absolutely terrible experience with this company and the broker Christine Stedmann. Started around 04/05/2026 They kept changing the pricing on me—every time I thought I had a price confirmed, they would turn around and say, ‘No, that’s wrong, the price is actually this.’ She was never clear upfront, but acted like she was. Even worse, their pricing didn’t align with their terms and conditions. When I asked them about it, they just told me to go back to the terms, which contradicted themselves. On top of that, their response times were awful—I constantly felt ignored, like I was at the bottom of their priority list. In short, it was a confusing, frustrating, and very disappointing service. I definitely would not recommend them.

At this point I have been so stressed I can't handle the mortgage process at this point. just feels like a scam

Poor service from from Christine Stedmann

Julie first helped us with our insurance needs 6 years ago, we were very pleased with her services and she has recently helped us update our policies to reflect our current circumstances. Her advice has been invaluable, she has gone above & beyond to assist us and I would highly recommend her service.

Julie Bassi Thank you so much for your help

It is with immense pleasure and sincere gratitude that I write this review for Hash, who provided truly exceptional support throughout our journey to secure our family home. From the very first conversation to the moment we finally received the keys, their dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment made what could have been a stressful process remarkably smooth and even enjoyable.
From the outset, Hash took the time to genuinely understand our family's unique needs, preferences, and priorities. He didn't just listen; they actively absorbed our vision, translating it into practical steps and guiding us through the initial complexities of the market. His insightful advice and patient explanations laid a strong foundation, making us feel confident and well-informed from day one.

As we navigated the various stages of finding and securing our home, Hash was an invaluable constant. His communication was impeccable – always prompt, clear, and proactive. Whether answering our endless questions, or skillfully handling negotiations, they demonstrated a level of professionalism and responsiveness that consistently exceeded our expectations. We particularly appreciated his ability to anticipate potential hurdles and offer pragmatic solutions, turning challenges into manageable steps. His deep knowledge of the local market and the intricacies of the process was evident at every turn, providing us with a sense of security and trust and helping get better rates even after the 1st.

When it came to the final stages, Hash's support was nothing short of phenomenal. He meticulously guided us through the closing procedures, ensuring all paperwork was in order and every detail was attended to. Having a reassuring presence during what can often be the most anxious part of the process were truly a blessing. Thanks to their thoroughness and dedication, the transition into our new home was seamless.
In summary, Hash didn't just facilitate a transaction; He provided a comprehensive, empathetic, and highly effective service that made our dream of owning a family home a reality. We wholeheartedly recommend Hash to anyone seeking a truly outstanding professional who will be with them every step of the way, ensuring a positive and successful outcome.

Christine dedicates herself to finding the best deal for the client. She is proactive and efficient, providing excellent knowledge and information every step of the way.

Malcom and Jack have arranged two mortgages for me over the past five years. They’ve been diligent, thorough, and always take the time to explain my options clearly. They’re incredibly responsive and consistently deliver within tight deadlines, which is hugely reassuring. I look forward to working with Brooklands again in the future.

Great company, Alice and Sophie are Amazing, would recommend

Mr Hash was truly exceptional with his proactive approach, initially I got the mortgage on higher rate but he consistently was looking at the prices reduction and as soon as it happened he struck a new deal with much lower rates. If I had any issues through out my journey in buying a house, Mr Hash was available to help and deal with the issues on prior basis, he has been very supportive and proactive and very much recommended.

Where do I begin - got in touch with a very complex credit history - a male advisor was assigned to my case. He worked to find someone who could help and managed to find a specialist lender. As time progressed there was a little banter, that turned into sexual harassment - when I made a complaint about it the managing director emailed and said "I'm sorry to hear your dissatisfied with our advisor" then a few days later I was emailed again by the MD to say that the mortgage company had decided not to progress my application. I am now speaking to the ombudsman about this company.
*I am choosing not to name the advisor who harassed me as I am seeking legal advice.
Be very careful with this company

I find working with Hash on my BTL mortgages super easy, communicating via whatapp is ideal for me. He is very responsive and helpful, never had an issues and looking forward to finalising another mortage next month :-)

James was brilliant during my recent remortgage having been left with a difficult situation post-divorce. He gave me good advice and helped push things through with the bank/solicitors until the very end - he was far more pragmatic and helpful than my solicitor in fact! Thanks a million James!

Alice and Sophie at Brooklands Commercial Finance and The Mortgage Explorer are absolutely fantastic. I had no clue about mortgages and which ones would be best for us. Alice and Sophie went over and above In helping us, answering any questions we had no matter how stupid our questions were and giving us all the information we could possibly need and helping us from start to finish. Alice and Sophie are an asset to the company and we’re very friendly, polite and professional throughout. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to go for a mortgage or just get mortgage advice they made the process so easy and stress free.

Christine is awesome! She’s tenacious,always contactable and goes over and above to help. I can’t recommend Christine highly enough!
