Bright Advice - Mortgages By Design Reviews 

I highly recommend Bright Advice. They supported me with my initial mortgage and, more recently, with my mortgage renewal, securing an excellent deal for me.

The communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. I was always kept fully informed, every step was explained clearly, and everything was handled with professionalism and genuine care. The personal touch made such a difference.

A special thank you to Brian Gibson for making such a major financial decision feel easy, straightforward and comfortable. His support and guidance were excellent from beginning to end. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received.

Our mortgage advisor, John, has made the mortgage process of becoming a first time home-owner so much easier, taking the time to explain in a easy to understand way the whole process. John and the Bright Advice team are easy to get hold of, even at short notice and will always do their best to help. I am very grateful to the team and have used them to re-mortgage and will continue to do so! Thank you

The team provide excellent advice when I was looking for a mortgage and insurance.

Fantastic experience using The Bright Team, specifically John and his able assistant Freya . A specific mortgage was required and this was delivered with ease, on time and exactly when needed for a house move . Due diligence throughout made sure that John and ourselves were totally comfortable with the product and attention to detail throughout was most reassuring.
Thank you so much for all of your support.

I personally think Andy, Evie and Chris were fantastic.
The whole process with them was seamless and in times where we had no idea what we were doing they were only a phone call away and always happy to assist us.
I think it’s fair to say in current times it’s hard to reach people on the phone but their communication was fantastic.

Excellent advice from Chris Cocksedge all the way through the purchase process. His advice was invaluable and his ability to arrange finance quickly and efficiently in complex circumstance was fantastic. He liased directly with the large loan desk at a high street lender to give a private bank level of service but at a far more attractive rate.

The company does everything well and are extremely helpful, supportive and knowledgeable throughout the process.

I will and would highly recommend them.

Great service provided.

Team are knowledgeable and responsive to requirements and changing requests.

Yasmin has been amazing in finding the best products for me but has gone above and beyond, supporting me all the way through the process. I could not have asked for a more professional service but the compassion and understanding has been there every step of the way. Thank you

Andy Bird was efficient as always and answered any questions I had promptly

I have worked with Rachel previously and she would always be my first point of call when it comes to mortgage advice - she is amazing and would totally recommend her and Bright. Evie was super helpful when coming to gathering all information and was a a great point of contact for any queries. Thank you both!

Mark was recommend to us by my parents and I couldn’t be happier with the level of service he and the team at Bright Advice offered us throughout. They genuinely care about their customers and I would recommend them to anyone!

I want to thank Paul Murfitt and the team at Bright Advice for all the amazing work they do. I have been a client of Paul's for the last seven years and prior to this he was recommended to me by my parents who cannot praise him enough. He has not only assisted me with securing my mortgage three times but has helped me with securing my critical illness, income protection and life insurance. Paul is dedicated and hard working and always willing to go the extra mile. He's been so helpful at accommodating calls around my busy work schedule. He is efficient and trustworthy and I really value his expertise and support over the last few years. Even this year Paul managed to anticipate the change in markets and secure me a competitive mortgage deal had we waited even a few days later the rates would have surged. Paul has always made me feel listened to and both him and the team at Bright deliver an excellent service. I could not recommend them highly enough!

Andy Bird was exceptional when dealing with the renewal of our life insurance policies. Kept us informed of the progress all the way through. Could ask him any questions via email or phone and they were always dealt with quickly. Bright Advice have also helped when we were remortgaging with the same professionalism. Highly recommend Andy and Bright Advice.

Bright Advice helped with all aspects of moving and mortgage and made the process really easy. I was given sound and reliable advice and what was best for me, not just to gain commission.
Mark had complete coverage of the whole mortgage market and I was matched with the best mortgage for me but also matched to my circumstances.
Highly recommended.

John is absolutely brilliant I've used Bright Advice since being a first-time buyer and he's always been on hand whenever I wasnt quite sure what was happening. His knowledge is immense and knows when to apply it but also has a very empathetic understanding which really helps steady you when doing something like buying your first property. Evie has been wonderful whenever we've communicated and is always very prompt and proffesional. Plan to use them again when moving house.

I first used Mark and his team when I purchased my first property in 2021, and I’ve continued to work with them ever since—through my remortgage two years later and most recently in April 2026 when purchasing my next property.

Each time, the service has been outstanding. Mark made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free, always being readily available whether he needed something from me or I had a question. His communication was excellent throughout.
He worked seamlessly with the estate agents and recommended Gorvins Residential as solicitors, who were also fantastic. In addition, he introduced me to a Specialist Protection Adviser, Andy, who secured a brilliant life insurance deal for me.

Honestly, I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my mortgage needs. From start to finish—and even with his annual check-ins—Mark consistently goes above and beyond. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and professional mortgage advice.

Personal service in the digital age is a rarity. Bright Advice provides sensible advice and great service on time, every time delivered by professionals who make the effort to understand a client’s unique needs.
No hard sell, no faceless ‘bots’ just real people available when you need them.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Bright Advice. As a first-time buyer, I had been searching for the right mortgage advisor and I’m so glad I found Brian.

Brian was fantastic from start to finish. He explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made the whole mortgage process feel so much easier and less stressful. He was always approachable, patient, professional, and quick to respond whenever I needed anything.

I’ve genuinely tried to think of something that could have been improved, but I honestly can’t. The service was perfect from start to finish, and I felt completely supported throughout the whole process.

I would highly recommend Bright Advice, and especially Brian, to anyone looking for honest, reliable, and professional mortgage advice.

We have worked with Rachel Black for nearly 10 years now, from our first mortgage to securing our latest home. She is so incredibly down to earth and understands the challenges and concerns we all face when making big financial decisions. She takes everything into her capable hands, going above and beyond to make sure everything is in order. Most of all though, she is approachable, friendly and highly professional, whilst also being a good laugh. We will be going back to Rachel for as long as we can!
