 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both my husband  and I use Andrew for financial planning. Advice is clear, questions are welcomed and are thoroughly answered in terms we can understand. Our differing approaches to financial risk are considered, and are respected in our individual plans which are regularly reviewed.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I engaged Andrew’s services for around 8 months in 2022 he helped me make tax efficient decisions and set me on a path to improve my overall financial position and plan for retirement, there was no problem when I decided to go it alone and would use Andrew’s services again when required when I am at another crossroads.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've had Andrew as my financial advisor for quite a few years, he really understands what my requirements are and makes sure he tailors my products accordingly.  He explains everything clearly and has brilliant knowledge of products and how they can be used. I would highly recommend Andrew, I wouldn't want to use any other financial advisor.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrew is extremely professional and well-informed. I found him via reviews and have never regretted the choice for what has been a complicated setting up of a post-divorce annuity. He came twice to the house for meetings which was much appreciated. He is patient, emotionally-intelligent and never pushy; he  thinks about what is best for the client. He sources excellent products, explains his thinking; he follows up, is pro-active. While being clear, concise and in control he is always warm and friendly. I appreciated the fact he was prompt to answer queries and also nudged us to complete paperwork, etc. Totally to be recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrew at SFP was recommended to us by a friend and has been very helpful to us as first time buyers each step of the way. He was always at the end of the phone when we had any questions and gave valuable advice. We would also recommend him to anyone in a similar position as ourselves.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wanted a mortgage with the best possible rate, and to understand how much I would be able to borrow to buy a new property. Andrew at SFP has been there every step of the way through the mortgage process, providing me advice and support. He is always at the end of an email or phone call any time I need him. We have been able to secure a fantastic rate just as the rates were going up, and I can’t thank him enough for this. I would 100% recommended him to anyone I know needing a mortgage or anything else. Andrew’s services are far better than any mortgage advisor I have used before.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We chose to use SFP through recommendation and were utterly impressed from start to finish. Andy’s industry knowledge and his inclination to not obfuscate the process meant we felt in control of our decisions throughout and his personal approach truly made us feel valued. The ease and speed in which he answered our queries was exemplary and we really felt like we could rely on him in what formed quite a complex transaction. We cannot recommend his services enough. Many Thanks.
