Steven Darbyshire
Commercial Finance Specialist
I have worked in financial services for over 20 years, including roles with institutions such as Royal Bank of Scotland, Together Money, and Sancus. This has provided me with a broad range of experience to support clients with their property lending requirements.
Whilst I am able to assist with all forms of property finance, I primarily specialise in the commercial lending space, including finance for owner-occupier businesses, property investors, and property developers.
I pride myself on being approachable and supportive, regardless of what stage you are at in your property journey. Whether you are buying your first home or project managing your own housing development, I am confident I will be able to help.
Mark Clayton
Mortgage & Protection Specialist
I am a dedicated Mortgage and Protection Adviser committed to delivering clear, reliable guidance at every stage of your property journey.
I started my career in finance in 2002 with HSBC and then the NatWest Group and have been a broker since 2014 when I worked for Countrywide and more recently a local brokerage.
I specialise in residential and buy-to-let mortgages whilst providing comprehensive protection for personal and business customers. My clients value the way I simplify complex decisions, remove uncertainty, and provide tailored solutions that support their long term goals. I also pride myself in building long-lasting relationships with real support and guidance at every stage.
Whether you’re securing your first home, expanding a property portfolio, or safeguarding your family’s future, I work collaboratively to ensure you receive expert advice and a seamless experience from start to finish.
Amanda Darbyshire
Mortgage & Protection Specialist
I began my career in education, spending three years as a teacher before transitioning into financial services. I then gained three years’ experience with RBS, developing a strong understanding of the mortgage process and client needs. Today, I use this combined experience to educate clients clearly, protect their interests, and provide a seamless, end-to-end mortgage service.
