I started working for Embrace in September 2016 and have over 15 years experience of working in financial services providing mortgage and protection advice. I have worked directly for banks in the past, but I much prefer the freedom of being a broker and having access to a range of lenders in order to find my clients the best deal.

As a first-time buyer, the whole mortgage process felt a bit overwhelming at first, but Stacey made everything so much easier to understand and navigate. She explored options I hadn’t even considered, and I honestly don’t think I’d be buying the house I am at the moment if it wasn’t for her advice and support. From the very beginning, she was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always happy to answer any question – no matter how small.
Stacey has made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable, and I can’t thank her enough for all her help. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a mortgage advisor – she’s fantastic at what she does and truly goes above and beyond.

Usamah Elmaghdy was absolutely amazing in helping find the right mortgage. He was always available, incredibly supportive, and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciated his dedication and guidance every step of the way!




We had a fantastic experience working with Vishal Poppat as our mortgage adviser. His knowledge and expertise were evident from the outset, and he guided us through the process with clarity and confidence. Vishal was always available to answer our questions—no matter how small—and he consistently went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. His professionalism, attention to detail, and calm approach made what could have been a stressful process feel manageable and even enjoyable. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Vishal to anyone looking for expert mortgage advice.

Had the best experience I could have asked for with EFS, specifically because of Colin! He was so helpful, thorough, supportive and was there to talk at the drop of a hat. He explained everything so it was actually easy to understand, was so open and this has honestly been the smoothest process ever because of him. I have heard horror stories about mortgages and I was apprehensive about the process but I couldn't have asked for a better advisor. I have recommended Colin to my friends and family, and I will absolutely stay as a customer of his! THANK YOU COLIN!!!!!!!
