“Kite Mortgages were brilliant from start to finish. With most of my income coming from bonuses, I’d expected the mortgage process to be painful, but David and the team made it simple. They first helped us buy our family home, then later remortgaged and set us up with an offset mortgage that’s been hugely valuable. Clear advice, quick responses, and genuinely expert service — highly recommended.”

Thomas Forrow

Managing Director, Jefferies

★★★★★

“I have been interacting with David since 2021 when he first helped us secure mortgage and life insurance policies after our home purchase. Over the past few years, David has patiently addressed our questions, helped us work through various scenarios and shown deep knowledge of the mortgage market.

So naturally he was our first port of call when we had an offer accepted on our primary residence. He and the team at Kite Mortgages ensured a seamless process and also helped find a better rate after an initial mortgage offer had already been procured. His blogs and posts on LinkedIn are also very informative. I highly recommend David and his team.”

Rohan Khanna

Managing Director, Barclays

★★★★★

“I highly recommend David’s services — he clearly knows the market very well, finds solutions to problems that other brokers have been unable to solve, and his team makes the day to day process smooth and easy to handle.”

Daniel Lowen

Partner, Dentons

★★★★★

“I highly recommend David and his team at Kite Mortgages. David has helped me secure mortgage finance for two homes now, and recently helped my partner and me secure a re-mortgage at a competitive rate, which was appreciated in this current difficult financing environment.

As a General Counsel, in the process of selling one property while re-mortgaging another, while also starting a family and renovating a home, it was important to me to have an adviser who would take the time to consider the best structure for our family, lowering our risk, ensuring we were well informed and understood the products, and securing the best deal possible. Dave was that person.”

Tess Bridgman

General Counsel, Cory

★★★★★

“David and the team at Kite Mortgages have been fantastic. They helped us secure mortgage finance for our home and a seamless subsequent re-mortgage recently.

As a partner in a law firm, it was important to have someone who understands the intricacies of our income — in particular, when we first got our mortgage, I had been partner for less than a year, making it even more complicated. David understood the structure and was able to secure a competitive rate in good time for our purchase.

The communication and professionalism throughout were much appreciated and certainly not something you always see in the mortgage industry. Would highly recommend!”

He stepped in and handled everything with incredible speed and professionalism, making what could have been a stressful process completely seamless. From the start, he was highly responsive, answering all our questions with clarity and patience.

His efficiency was outstanding — our mortgage application was managed at lightning speed without a single detail overlooked. His expertise and dedication gave us complete confidence every step of the way. If you need someone who gets things done quickly and flawlessly, he’s the one to trust. Highly recommend!”

★★★★★

“Mr. Simon Hart helped us during the process of purchasing our first home. As complete new to the experience, we asked many questions and Simon always patiently answered all of them precisely and promptly.

He was always clear, honest and trustworthy when offering different options, and we really could have not asked for anything better. We are completely satisfied with the service and the support we have received in purchasing our first home. Absolutely recommended.”

Davide Santori

Associate

★★★★★

“David was a calm, extremely knowledgeable and very reliable voice throughout the entire process of buying my first flat.

He explains complicated and unfamiliar concepts in a manner that really helps demystify them. To top it all off, he’s very quick and efficient. Could not recommend more! I also learnt about David from a friend who’d had a very similar experience. You will not regret going with Kite!”
