Oliver, She-rel, Steve and the team are truly excellent. They have turned around my application, which was not straightforward due to being self-employed, quickly and efficiently. I could not be happier.

I had a very positive experience with Oportfolio throughout my first home purchase. From the beginning, the team was extremely responsive and supportive, and they took the time to explain the different options clearly, helping me identify the services and providers that were most appropriate at each stage.

What particularly stood out was how quickly they managed to secure my mortgage. The speed at which this was arranged played a really important role in allowing my purchase to progress smoothly, particularly when timing became important towards the end of the process.

I would especially like to thank Jade, who was fantastic throughout. She was always available when I needed guidance, responded promptly to my questions and made what could otherwise have been a complicated process feel much more straightforward.

Overall, I felt very well supported from start to finish and would have no hesitation recommending Oportfolio to other first-time buyers.

Oliver and the team can’t do enough to help. They are on hand and responsive at all hours of the day and nothing is too much trouble. A 5 star service from a 5 star team!

Jade and the whole team at Oportfolio have been the easiest and most supportive part of buying our first property. It was incredibly reassuring to find people we could trust while navigating such a new and complicated process. They took the time to understand our circumstances, advised us at every stage and patiently answered all our questions. They were also incredibly quick in securing our mortgage offer and found us the best product for our needs. We’re so excited to complete and move into our forever home next week.. we couldn’t recommend them more!

Faultless from beginning to end. Oli and his team are absolutely on it. Pro-active, communicative and just downright nice to boot. I could not recommend them more highly. I’ll be using them for any mortgage and remortgage needs from now on and recommending them to all of my friends.

I was very impressed with the thoroughness of the service I received from Oportfolio. They examined all the various options open to me at my age and recommended a solution which was a perfect fit.
I would recommend them to anyone who has a requirement for a non standard mortgage .

Third time I've been through the mortgage process and it gets easier every time.

Remmea Moohan provides an excellent service - always on the ball, always into the details, and always lays out the info in plain English with the right level of detail and options laid out to enable solid decision to be made.

Thanks Remmea and the team at Oportfolio for making what is a complicated process so much easier for making it all so slick from start to finish.

If anyone is looking for a brand new mortgage, or options to renew, you can't really do better that Remmea! Thanks!

Amazing customer service as always by Remmea O’Brien, nothing is ever a problem for her, she goes above and beyond to help out every time I contact her and she always makes sure we have the best products and prices available to us. We have been in contact with Remmea for several years now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Highly recommended 💯

Reamma was very efficient getting a new mortgage for us. She prompted us when required and made the process run very smoothly. I hope to use her again when we require our next mortgage

I had an exceptionally difficult time getting my purchase to complete, due to the persistent incompetence of the lender's solicitors and mistakes made on the seller's side.  She-rel at Oportfolio worked her socks off to get the transaction over the line and was absolutely relentless.  She was endlessly positive when I was in despair.  I have no doubt that without her we would not have got to completion, that I would have lost my competitive mortgage offer and I would have had to obtain an offer at a much higher interest rate.  I can't thank her, Oliver, Grace and the rest of the Oportfolio team enough!

A good business is one with fast lead times. Oliver and his team were very efficient and do not let you drop the ball. For this reason we were able to lock in a good rate before the market blew up again and rates increased.

We have used Oliver and his team for years when it comes to remortgaging. This time we worked with Pharell. He did a fantastic job at managing the process and ensuring everything ran smoothly.

Oportfolio have supported us for many years now and mostly recently on the purchase of our family home. Jade and the team were superb, as always, throughout this process. Accessing competitive rates and processing applications faster than expected. Their service continues to validate our choice in Oportfolio!

The best mortgage advisors out there. Creative, practical and professional- they are able to suggest and work through complex arrangements and innovative solutions as well as the more straightforward procedures. What stands out is their diligence in ensuring matters are tracked and monitored through to completion and importantly the ability to recognise potential issues, solve them and to make and implement solutions if products/ providers are no longer suitable- intervening to get the best outcome and monitoring rates and products through the whole process. I have nothing but admiration and gratitude to Oliver and his whole team and would strongly recommend Oportfolio as your go to mortgage advisor without hesitation.

Jade and her team Grace and Pharell did a great job helping me to secure a remortgage for my property. This is my second time working with Jade but I have recommended her to others who all found the service impeccable.

I had a lot of delays from the solicitors end and the team were very diligent in chasing my case and getting everything finished.

Thank you Oportfolio!

I had an excellent experience working with Oliver Whitehead, Stephen Marsh and the rest of the Oportfolio team. They were knowledgeable, professional, and always available to answer my questions throughout the process. They took the time to explain all of my options clearly, found me a great mortgage that suited my needs.

Their communication was outstanding, keeping me updated every step of the way, and they genuinely went above and beyond to ensure everything was completed on time. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and efficient mortgage broker.

I could not recommend this company enough! From start to finish Jade has been amazing at guiding us (FTB) through the process of not only the mortgage but the overall buying of our house. We have now found our home and or mortgage has been expertly handled by Jade all for a very reasonable fee.

Amazing service!
