Hall-Ward Independent Financial Advisers

Excellent service, they go above and beyond what is expected of them. Very flexible and willing to work around your schedule. I would highly recommend them to anyone I know!

I can't recommend Hall Ward enough, and particularly Catherine as a Mortgage Advisor. Catherine helped me find the right mortgage that suited my needs, in a time where the house market felt quite unpredictable. Catherine made the process of applying for my mortgage feel incredibly straight forward. Her expert advice was invaluable, especially with being a first time buyer. Catherine took time to ensure I was well-informed every step of the way, and was always approachable to answer any questions I had throughout the process.

Amazing and seamless service, highly recommend this company. Would use again without question. Thanks for your help.

I contacted Hall Ward IFA in order to seek the best mortgage possible during this time of economic uncertainty, my parents have invested and had financial advice with them for many years. So felt really comfortable in making contact. I was put in touch with Catherine who discussed our options and what was best for us suffice to say we were happy with the deal that was found and will continue with them when the time comes around again. Would highly recommend.

Catherine Ray has been incredible, honestly cannot recommend her enough, she has been so helpful and made process positive.

Brilliant company with great customer service. They gave me some free advice in one phone call that was really appreciated. Will use them again and recommend to friends definitely. Thanks, Shaun.

We're excellent handling our recent house purchase would definitely recommend, took all the anguish and complications out of buying a house.

I'm so glad Catherine was recommended to me as my mortgage broker. She was friendly, helpful and clear thoughout the process. I felt she really listened to my needs & concerns and always made sure we were going down the best route for my circumstances. Thanks Catherine for helping me get into my new home!

Excellent service throughout, I actually was going to use another broker but on a whim spoke to Catherine. She ran me through my options, ensured I was well-informed and provided timely updates every step of the way. We ran into some small problems towards the end of the process and again she took ownership of the query and managed to get a resolution within a day meaning we could still go ahead with our given completion date.

Would definitely use this firm again and have recommended to everyone else I know. Can't praise the service enough and surprisingly their service charge was extremely competitive beating out most the market I checked with!

I cannot recommend Catherine enough as a mortgage broker. She provided invaluable pre-application advice that was crucial to our house purchase and was able to get us to the mortgage offer stage quickly. Catherine was knowledgeable, responsive, and always willing to go above and beyond to ensure we had a smooth and stress-free experience. Her professionalism and expertise were truly impressive, and I would not hesitate to use her services again in the future. Thank you, Catherine, for all your hard work!

Very brilliant financial services firm that looks after me and gets us the best deal in the market. I will surely recommend Hall Ward IFA to my family and friends who are looking for a mortgage. Catherine Ray did help us with great customer service, and she looked after us very well. Thank you so much

Our friend recommended Catherine at Hall Ward for support with our mortgage. As first-time buyers we wasn't too sure of the mortgage process, however Catherine was fantastic at explaining things clearly and guiding us through the process! Catherine was always extremely approachable, friendly and responsive and supported us to get a great mortgage deal despite the cost of living crisis affecting many first-time buyers. We cannot recommend Catherine enough and are so grateful for all of her help!

Friendly staff, great advice, extremely knowledgeable! Great service and couldn't have asked for more!

We recently used Hall Ward IFA to help re-mortgage a rental property and arrange some life insurance. they had excellent customer service, and we're really happy with the results. I would definitely recommend Hall Ward IFA!

After a conversation with a friend and neighbour recently, it became apparent that she was in quite a muddle about her mortgage; understanding what she had and why she had it, what she could do with that product moving forward and how she could best move forward financially. Having known Catherine Ray for a while, I connected them. My neighbour now feels so much better about her situation, she can't do anything just yet, but now understands what is what, and what / when she can plan to do something positive for her situation.

Cat has promised to be back in touch with her at the right time and I can see how much this means to her, she was visibly more comfortable. That's the difference a personal approach makes - thank you!

Our advisor Catherine was second to none, we have no hesitation in recommending her and Hall Ward. Absolutely brilliant from start to finish in finding and securing our mortgage.

Catherine at Hall-Ward was brilliant with my sister and I, who needed a lot of advice and guidance. She is always helpful whilst being very responsive to emails and calls. The process moved very quickly and we had a mortgage offer we were very happy with within weeks!

Gary Hall gave us good financial advice for our pensions and savings. He gave us the confidence to retire early. He talked to us in a professional manner and explained in a clear and concise way. Rob and Gail

Spoke with Catherine Ray regarding my move to the other side of the UK, and the associated queries with renting/selling my property down here before doing so. She had all of the answers to my many questions, and I was very grateful to her for taking the time to speak with me to clarify it all for me. Thank you, Catherine!

Catherine has been fantastic! As first time buyers, Catherine has made this process as easy and as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend Hall WAr IFA. Thank you.

Customer@Mansfield. Just had Hall-Ward IFA sort out my retirement pensions. Stuart Ward did the work for us and, an excellent job he has done as well. Three separate pensions (none of which were draw-down) combined into one. Job sorted. Stuart is extremally professional and knowledgeable while nothing seems too much trouble for him. Minimum of fuss and a really quick turn around on the work that needed doing. Ongoing, Stuart will keep an eye on my portfolio and I am happy to trust him to let me know if anything needs adjusting, not to mention the yearly reviews. My wife and I highly recommend Hall-Ward IFA and Stuart Ward in particular.

We've been using Hall-Ward for financial planning for several years now. Stuart provides a friendly, professional and knowledgeable review each year. On our first meeting, he immediately identified a number of gaps and patiently provided a concise explanation of the options and associated benefits. As a result, we have confidence that we are maximising our portfolio's potential and that our family has financial security under a range of scenarios.

We have also recently used Catherine for our mortgage. She quickly understood our requirements, and sourced an offer that was better than anything we had found. All was arranged very efficiently. An excellent team who I highly recommend.

Excellent experience. Right from initial engagement, it was clear that Hall-Ward are a business that care deeply about their clients. I would recommend unreservedly

I dealt with Gary who offered sound and professional advice. He was extremely helpful and answered all my questions. I would not hesitate to recommend Hall Ward IFA - Lee @ Design Living Space

Friendly and professional in their approach, they give excellent advice and are proactive in managing our investments to ensure that the return is maximized. I would highly recommend the business to offer advice and manage savings and investments, tailoring them to suit your own personal needs

Contacted Hall-Ward via the Internet after reading testimonials and can honestly say I couldn't have made a wiser choice. Stuart has been the epitome of professionalism. The sound and extensive advice given on both pensions and investments have made my transition to retirement hassle free. Can't recommend Stuart and Hall-Ward highly enough and am very confident and comfortable to our ongoing advisory relationship.

I had a stocks and shares ISA set up in 2006 but it hadn't been doing very well and I had not been kept up to date by my financial advisor since set up. Stuart at Hall-Ward IFA took a look at it and immediately identified it was underperforming and that any interest it was earning was swallowed up in fees. He has now moved it to a much better managed platform with much lower fees.

The changeover has been handled with efficiency and professionalism and he will arrange to meet yearly to discuss the progress and suggest changes if needed. Stuart has also done a great job of advising and changing over my life insurance policies to something more comprehensive and cheaper as well as setting up a private pension. He has kept in contact throughout the application process and been able to meet at a convenient time for myself to go through any paperwork. All in all I am extremely happy with the service and would highly recommend Hall-Ward IFA.
