  • I'd just like to take this opportunity to thank you for all you help with our investments. In particular over the last 18 months your help has enabled us to achieve our ambitions of a world trip, move to Cyprus and renovation of our French property. I would be happy to recommend you to anyone, and for for you to show this to prospective clients. I look forward to many more years of using your services.

  • Carl has been fantastic over the last couple of years with our mortgage application and subsequent rate change. He's always on hand to answer any questions and has been extremely helpful every step of the way.

    Adam
  • I decided at the beginning of the year, that after some health issues I would like to look into retiring early at 60. I contacted Sterling North, and an appointment was made at the end of January with Louise Birchall. Having discussed my finances at length over 2 meetings, Louise has been a great help in making this possible. She was very understanding and checked everything thoroughly before giving me the best advice. Pensions etc are such a specialised business, I would have been lost dealing with it all on my own. I would recommend Louise to anyone.

    Denise
  • Nicola's sound advice and easy explanation of financial jargon made choosing the right pension scheme for me a simple process.

    Sarah
  • Carl was very helpful. He was never pushy and gave us so many options and let us decide what we wanted to do. He always kept us informed and was extremely helpful, especially chasing things. I will definitely recommend Carl to others.

    Gill and Laurence
  • Nicola has provided financial advice for me and members of my family for a number of years. She is very straight forward to deal with, and both patient and understanding when explaining the issues involved in financial planning. Her unassuming manner and impartiality makes discussing difficult financial issues a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

    Ian
  • A fantastic service! Sterling North came highly recommended, and I wasn’t disappointed. Carl was very efficient and informative every step of the way and secured a great rate. Switching my mortgage deal has never been easier or quicker.

    Sarah
  • I have always been very happy with the advise and service received by Sterling North. You get a genuine feel that there is a real interest in achieving the best and most realistic results for you. With their team of friendly, professional and helpful staff all making it very easy.'

    Charlotte
  • Nicola's straight talking made the daunting task of sorting out my pension a pleasure rather than the chore I imagined it to be! Nicola explains everything in clear, simple terms and does not try to baffle you with jargon. I was pleased to discover that I actually understood what Nicola was telling me, my eyes didn't glaze over for once!
