"She gave us hope"
"We have been looking into buying a house for 6 years and our hopes went down after covid when the lending criteria became harder for first time owners to buy a house. We were referred to Uma by one of our good friends and we started working with Uma in August 2024 and the first consultation call we had with Uma she said she will definitely get us into our first house! She gave us hope our long awaited dream will come true. We loved the fact that Uma is very professional and works to deadlines which was great because we knew each time we did what Uma required we were getting closer and progressing towards our goal We had to do a bit of financial work and clean up and we trusted that Uma knew what she was doing with her background in her job for many many years now!
