It’s official – we are a top rated mortgage broker!

We’re delighted that for the second year running, we have officially been recognised by VouchedFor as being a Top Rated Firm! As a bonus, for the second year in a row, we appeared in the national Top Rated Guide, distributed with the The Times newspaper.

While the award has a number of qualifying criteria, it is largely driven by the reviews which we get from our customers. What’s truly remarkable is that within all of those reviews, both Paul and Ashley only ever received 5 star feedback. It feels right to mention that we do not cherry pick which clients we ask for feedback from – the invitation goes to everyone to share their experience, whatever that may be.

In practical terms, the award won’t make a difference to how we do things, but hopefully it does mean that if you are considering using us, you will have assurance around the quality and friendliness of our service.

In terms of our individual advisors, having founded the business, Paul has set the tone for the WR Ethical ethos and was deservedly awarded Top Rated Advisor status for the second year in a row. Typically modest in his response to the news, Paul preferred to focus on the success of the wider team:

“The positive feedback we receive at WR Ethical gives us such a buzz, and is one of the main reasons that we all love our work! It’s great to be recognised for the quality of our customer feedback by VouchedFor, but even more exciting to see the commitment that everyone in the team makes to ensure that all our customer get the best possible care from us”

Ashley joined the team as a Mortgage Advisor in October 2022 and started as he means to go on with his very first review a glowing endorsement:

“Ashley was friendly and professional. He provided excellent advice and wasn’t put off by someone asking the silly questions. The quotes were provided very quickly and were thorough, with options considered as discussed. Brilliant service, can’t fault it – thank you!”

Our brilliant administrators, Jess & Kelly, do not get official recognition from Vouched For but are regularly singled out for feedback, as Matt did here:

“Following advice from other mortgage brokers we were not feeling optimistic. However, Paul and Jess helped us find the right mortgage for us as first time buyers. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and invaluable advice Paul! Also, thanks Jess for making the admin side of things so simple and stress free! We received friendly and patient guidance throughout the process… I cannot recommend WR Ethical highly enough.”

Taking care of everybody, individually, is vital to us at WR Ethical – because of that, we ask for a ‘first impression’ from everyone we speak to, as well as a full review once a mortgage offer has been issued. Perhaps because of this, we have more recent reviews than almost every other mortgage broker in Bristol. We hope that everyone’s experience of us continues to be as positive as those of you who used us over the last year.
