We've just had our third (yes! third!) prospective property purchase fall through. Thus far I've been using HSBC because my current mortgage is with them and they're offering me a good rate to port it across when we move.
However I've been a bit peeved with Countrywide and have heard plenty of horror stories from MN and from estate agents and my solicitor about how universally loathed Countrywide are and how frequently they manage to screw up purchases. I should say they haven't been excessively bad for us so far, but they have been dragging their feet a bit. None of the deals that fell through were directly related to their incompetence.
But we've had such bad experiences I don't want anything to jeopardise any further sale. Seriously, after 3 abortive attempts the next one has to work!
So: who would wise MNers recommend for exceptional service, smooth transaction, responsiveness etc? Has anyone got any good stories of efficient mortgage providers to tell? If so, please impart!
