P.S.
A few extra comments.
Mortgages – we can help.
Bridging loans – We can help.
Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase needs to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.
Sometimes we can negotiate an agreement to suit both sellers and buyers.
Sometimes a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
