Here's what a few of our clients say about us...over 80% of our business comes from referrals.
’We first met Ketan almost 5 years ago when looking to buy our first house. As first time buyers we were quite overwhelmed with the idea of mortgages, life and income insurances and making the right decision in choosing what would become our first family home. Upon meeting Ketan, we were struck by his professionalism and approachability. He was very patient with us, explaining the process in simple terms and actively seeking out the best deals for us. We always felt we could ask him anything no matter how simple it seemed. He gave us comprehensive advice which was appropriate to our situation yet he still respected our opinions and worked with us to get the best outcome. Since that time, we have remortgaged and have had significant changes in our work and family situation, and Ketan continues to strive to optimize our financial position with advice tailored to our circumstances. We’ve always been confident that Ketan will seek out the best product which saves time for us and takes the uncertainty out of decision making, but even more importantly, we are confident that Ketan truly cares about us as a family and wants what is best for us; a quality which in our opinion is so important when dealing with your financial future. ‘’ Simon and Kate Barton – Bedfordshire SG18
Dear Mr Yadav, I would like to thank you for your service, advice and management of obtaining a mortgage for my newly built house. My case was rather complicated and a number of financial advisors were unable to tackle the rather difficult aspects of my business income etc. The important thing is the fact that the mortgage was released after a number of extensions due to the building progress being delayed and the fact that following your advice, an offset mortgage was granted which was most suitable to my circumstances. I have recommended your service to my partners/friends and am glad to hear that you have been able to secure the mortgages for them speedily and they are very happy. Keep the good work up.'' - Dr A Christodoulou - Director - Muswell Hill, N10.
''I would highly recommend Avenue & Co Private Finance and Ketan Yadav for his thoroughness in searching for the best financial product on the market but also for his invaluable knowledge and personal contacts he has with many of the banks. His overall knowledge on property and mortgages and hard work meant that he managed to successfully secure me a deal that was competitve and managed to reserve a tracker rate deal long after it expired with Abbey (and after we lost 2 properties). His professionalism and friendly manner made the whole process relatively painless.I was personally recommended to Ketan and I was glad I was. We would never hesitate to pass on Avenue & Co Private Finances services to anyone who needs independent mortgage advice and the service is world class - a big thank you to Ketan and his team for a superb service, a great rate and technical expertise that is very hard to come by these days.'' - Pat Keogh - Director Pro Tax - Fulham SW6.
''Ketan provided an exceptional level of service from the very first time we met. His advice was truly independent, customised for my needs and his knowledge of his industry is staggering. I cannot emphasise how important it is to have a trusted advisor at what is a very stressful time. He made me a promise at the very first meeting that I could contact him at any time with any question regardless of how trivial. I did and he was always responsive and professional and went way beyond his obligations is chasing and harrying 3rd parties to make sure everything was in place. I would certainly recommend him as a pleasant and professional advisor and someone who you can rely on. I will certainly be using him again.'' - Mr Z Liaquat – Director - Hampstead Garden Suburb NW11
"Dear Ketan...We would like to thank you for all your support, help and drive in helping us get this mortgage! You have been absolutely great - we dont know anybody else who would have been able to a) get the mortgage b) secure such a great deal! Should anybody need a mortgae, you can be assured that we would recommend you wholehartedly. With Many thanks and warm wishes."- Dr G Schoeman and Ms M Duras
''I am a business executive in the city. My work life involves a lot of travelling worldwide. Privately I have a busy social life and am stretched with studying for an MBA. I have known Ketan for 3 years. My experience of working with him has always been excellent and very professional. Apart from his pleasant personality, he really understands what to do in specific circumstances and always maximizes my business to further levels that I could not imagine were possible at the time. He has helped me to successfully re-mortgage my house and in addition managed to get me a second mortgage to finance an expensive property in London, Canary wharf. He is very reliable and quick to respond to any query (and there were quite a few!) even when I am busy travelling abroad. The contact therefore has always been constant, timely and relevant. I have also recommended him to some of my closest friends and business partners. All of them have been impressed with his professional work style and his comprehensive knowledge about all mortgage products available in an otherwise confusing market. Without him I would definitely not be where I am today financially. He has been instrumental in helping me to finance my properties and has referred me to see other specialists concerning pensions etc from his wide business network of other financial experts. With Ketan your finances are definitely very well managed.'' - Ms L Wells - Account Director - London E1W
''We have known Ketan for about 4 years now and would highly recommend him as a very professional financial advisor. Prior to us meeting Ketan our finances were in need of streamlining and optimising and from our very first meeting with him back in 2004 we knew he would soon put us on the right track. Our adviser at Avenue & Co Private Finance (Ketan) has helped us select and put in place very cost effective insurance policies for our long- and short-term lifestyle needs which has provided us with additional re-assurance that we have the appropriate cover where it is needed and at the right price. Having recently re-mortgaged our property in London Ketan was instrumental in selecting and securing one of the best offers in the market. He was both persistent and successful in retaining an amazing mortgage deal even during the difficult economic climate we are currently experiencing. We were kept regularly updated on the status of the re-mortgaging process throughout with Ketan contacting the lender and negotiating on our behalf. With other potential property projects in the pipeline we would not waste a second to call on Ketan for advice again – his service is both professional and tailored to your very needs. Why look elsewhere?'' Mr M & Mrs M-Pierre-Lehmann – International Account Directors - London E1W.
''Avenue and Co Private Finance assisted me in obtaining a mortgage for an apartment I have recently bought in the UK. I wish to stress the efficiency as well as the high professionalism that Mr. Yadav has shown in the whole matter, bearing in mind that I am a non-UK resident. The service received from Mr. Yadav has been instrumental for me to complete the whole purchase transaction in a secure, speedy and most efficient way. As such, I would recommend the services of Avenue and Co Private Finance to anyone in need of similar assistance.'' - Ms E A Christodoulou - Manager (Central Bank of Cyprus).
''My son identified a flat he wished to purchase and we asked Avenue & Co. to assist with identifying a suitable mortgage. There is such a wide range of products available today that taking the advice of a specialist saves a lot of time and enables more informed decision making. After an in-depth discussion on our requirements, we received prompt efficient professional advice from Avenue & Co Private Finance on the different options available and were able to move swiftly to complete the purchase. ''- S Maugham - N3 - Associate Director - White Young Green International
''The case for my re-mortgage was a complex one and certainly out of the normal criteria for most lenders especially in these difficult times (I know - I tried to go direct to the likes of Abbey, HSBC, etc but failed). I spoke to Ketan at Avenue & Co Private Finance (London) and he advised me to wait a few months as he saw a trend in rates reducing. His logic seemed good so I patiently waited paying a variable rate. True to his promise, Ketan then contacted me notifying me of some new rates and then suggested that I let him try and obtain a mortgage when I was doubtful. Through his knowledge of the markets, and his close relationships with key individuals in the lending department of the lender, he got my case through. Had I re-mortgaged earlier, I would have had to pay a substantially higher rate for a full 2 years. I understand the difficulties he overcame more than most as I have been in financial services as an IFA since 1987. I gave up on mortgages 10 years ago due to the hassle so hats off to those that persist! The rate he got me was fantastic and my deal had no valuation or legal fees and best of all, none from him either and he managed to obtain an offer when every high street lender refused. I think I owe him a night out - or several!. In general, Ketan has advised me on various property transactions for about 6 years and he arranged my previous mortgage on our family house. In both cases he was always helpful, extremely knowledgeable of the current market and his predictions of the market for the future were almost spot on. He always does more than he promises. He was prompt, professional and kept me informed at all stages – a really a BIG THANK YOU to Avenue & Co Private Finance team and in particular Ketan. He is a true professional and I have no hesitation in recommending him and the company to anyone else.'' Mr A Beddows - Tax and investment IFA - Surrey KT4.
''Ketan Yadav has been my financial adviser and mortgage broker for the last four years. I have found Ketan to be a true professional, always offering good and impartial advice that is in the best interest of the client. He has arranged various insurance deals and mortgages/remortgages for me and I am totally satisfied with the service I have received from him. I have also recommended Ketan and his company to my friends and family, and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone else who's looking for a mortgage or other financial advice.''Mr I Najam - Director London City Institute
''Ketan has consistently provided me with sound, informed and impartial advice over the years. He is a pleasure to deal with and and is always up to date with market conditions. A very efficient work ethic indeed! ''- Mrs H Livesey - Film Production Manager - London E5
''My experience using the financial services provided by Avenue & Co Private Finance have been extremely good. My advisers knowledge regarding options available on various products at the time coupled with his time and patience in many areas have resulted in positive achievements on all occasions. - I will definitely be using him again ''- P Scopes - Director - Revamp SW4
''Unlike other financial advisers who tended to rush through the process using confusing terminology, my adviser made me feel at ease and explained the remortgage procedure in easy to understand terms. His advice was helpful and relevant to my situation and circumstances and I will definitely be contacting him again when my current deal expires.''- Judith Murray - SE27
