Julie is owner & founder of 1st Mortgage Services - A Mortgage & Insurance Adviser since 1998, started the business in 2008 with the passion to help clients financial well being throughout their lives Nationwide. Looking at Mortgages & Insurances to protect their lovely homes & lifestyles. Looks after clients in the Harrogate, Ripon area.
New to the housing market? Not sure what using a mortgage adviser would entail? Here at 1st Mortgage Services, we offer non-judgemental, supportive and friendly advice to support you through the house-buying process, from beginning to end. As we've already done the hard work in building fantastic relationships with lenders, we have access to a wide range of mortgages and will find the best one for you.
Don't just assume your existing lender has the best deal for you! Contact us to review your mortgage. We'll discuss your plans with you, as there's every chance this could alter what rate you chose now. If you already have a mortgage on your home, you could be considering a remortgage to get a better deal than you currently have.
When you are in the position to be able to buy a property to rent out, you will need to start looking into buy to let mortgages. They are not the same as the conventional mortgages out there that you use to buy your own house, which means our research is important here. For a buy to let mortgage, you'll need a larger deposit and you will face higher fees with a higher rate of interest.
Firstly do not feel embarrassed! 1st Mortgage Services are there to help you find the right mortgage for your bad credit situation. There are always deals available, you just need a helping hand to find them. When you have adverse credit, you are most likely under the impression you won't get the chance to own your own home.

We recently took out a remortgage with 1st Mortgage Service and cannot fault them at all. The communication was excellent at all times - they kept us informed of progress and were quick to respond to any queries we had. They were professional, helpful and saved us money into the bargain! Big thanks to the whole team.

Really helpful in finding a shared ownership mortgage for a first time buyer.
Fast responses via email, always helpful and kind. They were sure to explain the process and tell us what needed to be done and when. As a first time buyer, I had no idea what I was doing, so it was very helpful having 1st mortgage services to basically do everything for me.

As a first time buyer their knowledge and support was excellent. They guided me through the mortgage and buying process and chased up things along the way for me. I am pleased that I chose to use their services having been recommended to use them by the estate agents. Do not hesitate to use them for anything relating to mortgage/life cover. Thanks for all your help Pam and Karen I am very much enjoying my new home.

We have used 1st Mortgage Services for every mortgage and renewal we have gone through and wouldn't have done it any other way.
Julie and her team are so friendly and helpful, jargon-busting everything to help us through the daunting process.
They found us the best mortgage deals and also advised on the types of insurances that would suit our needs and situation. Even the late night/ weekend, worried rambling emails from us were responded to quickly, nothing was too much trouble.
1st Mortgage Services took a massive chunk of stress away from us, we couldn't have done it without them!

Julie and her team helped us secure a great value mortgage for our dream home.
Despite some historic financial difficulties we got a great rate and the process was super easy. Everything was clearly explained and straight forward. Delivered on a personal one to one level.
Julie worked with our conveyancers promptly and efficiently meaning that the financial transaction could be left to one side whilst we focussed on the practicalities of the move.
I had never used a mortgage broker before, but have no hesitation in recommending 1st Mortgage Services to anyone that has second thoughts.

The team at 1st Mortgage services, especially Julie were brilliant throughout the process of securing our mortgage. As self-employed business owners the requirements are complex but the team were clear, concise and helpful in what would be required.
We were under several pressures due to COVID and also ended up running very close to the Stamp Duty deadline but Julie and her team made sure that everything happened in time!
I would certainly recommend this company.

1st class service from start to finish! Pamela did an amazing job for me. Can't recommend highly enough! This was my first mortgage and despite lots of hurdles Pamela sorted it out as promised. Always available at the end of the phone which made the process much easier 🙂

The team at 1st Mortgage services helped with our intiial mortgage and a further remortgage and I couldn't sing their praises highly enough. Every question we had was answered and as first time buyers we had a lot! We were never made to feel silly or stupid for asking things, and Pam and Karen were fantastic at communicating with us along the way. Whether you're a first time buyer or just looking for someone to genuinely help you with the complicated processes involved in mortgages, I'd highly recommend this service.

I highly recommend Julie and the team at 1st Mortgage Services. Where everybody else saw problems, Julie saw solutions! It was so very refreshing to work with somebody who looked at the whole picture and made things work. She was always super helpful, quick and efficient. I honestly don't know how we would have got through the past few months without her and the team, they have been awesome.
