Skrivet av företaget

Hello. My name is Tim Spencer, The Later Life Lending Expert and the Managing Director of Optimus Mortgages. I help people live a better retirement through bespoke later-life lending, and I believe that financial solutions should be made simple for everyone. I started working in the financial services industry in the 1990s but soon fell out of love with the corporate world. I set up Optimus Mortgages Ltd in 2016 as I am passionate about helping people, just like you, understand what lending options are available, but without all of the high pressure sales techniques and targets. When I turn up to see clients, I won't be wearing a sharp suit, or using a flash laptop. I use a pen and paper, and look at having a relaxed chat. I like to build up long-term working relationships with my clients, and most of my clients have been referred to me by their friends, family or colleagues who I have previously helped. At Optimus Mortgages, we have decades of experience in financial services, and as specialists in the later-life lending market, we have access to a panel of carefully selected leading providers. We can also access the whole market, allowing us to make sure we find a suitable solution for clients. We are based in County Durham, but serve the entire UK. We deliver bespoke guidance and advice to our clients, and make use of the latest technology to deliver a premium level of service, whilst keeping things simple and straightforward. You can be safe in the knowledge that you will always be dealt with by fully qualified specialists who make sure that everything is clear and free from jargon. At Optimus Mortgages, financial solutions are made simple.

We have had a fantastic experience with Tim. He has always been incredibly quick to respond to any questions we’ve had and has taken the time to explain everything clearly, making sure we fully understand the process.

Buying a home can be quite stressful, but his help, guidance and availability have made the whole process feel so much easier and more manageable. It’s been reassuring knowing we can contact him whenever we need to and get a prompt and helpful response.

We really appreciate all his hard work and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a mortgage broker.

Tim is always available to answer queries even out of normal hours and weekends.
His instructions are clear and easy to follow.
The lender he recommended was quick with decisions and Tim relayed them instantly.
The conveyance solicitor was equally efficient and whilst at first I was concerned about doing 90% of the work on an app it turned out to be easy, time saving and most importantly money saving.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Tim at Optimus.

Tim helped us with taking out an additional mortgage

Tim helped us with taking out an additional mortgage to run alongside our existing one and the whole process from start to finish was seamless.
Despite being on holiday when we initially contacted him, he sorted us a great deal with our current lender and took care of everything, the whole process was straightforward and done in a timely manner.
We would thoroughly recommend Tim and Optimus mortgages and we'll definitely be using them again.

Brokers beware

Brokers beware! As a fellow broker, of 30 years standing, I referred an equity release case to Tim Spencer last year ( He had approached me earlier, touting for business, at an Industry event ) I understand referrals from fellow brokers is a large part of his income stream. In these scenarios Brokers share the fees/commission, usually 50/50. As I was very busy I never got around to confirming the terms of referral, I trusted Tim that a fair fee split would be on offer. Some time after completion of the case I contacted Tim to see what my fee would be and when to expect it. He earned circa £ 1500 for this. I was told that the max fee was £ 250. However, as I was busy with another mortgage for MY client, his terms were that he would not pay anything for the referral. I assume he deemed that he was effectively doing me a favor and in those circumstances he was paying me nothing!! ZERO v £ 1500. At no stage was any of this divulged to me. He has point blank refused to pay me any introduction fee at all. I could have clearly have used one of the many reputable equity release brokers in the field ( Like Age Partnership ) who split the fee. Its not even about the money anymore , it's about the principle. Never know anything like it, fellow professionals you have been warned...

Svar från Optimus Mortgages Ltd

Whilst Optimus Mortgages appreciates all feedback, it’s important to clarify the facts.

The above review is not from a customer, but another mortgage adviser. His name is Steve Jackson, and he is from a company called Jackson Potter in Sunderland.

For absolute clarity, under the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) Consumer Duty that was introduced in 2023, if an adviser is not qualified, or doesn’t have the authority, to advise on any area of financial advice, they are expected to refer the client to an alternative adviser who is able to help. Mr Jackson approached me with a case as he had already tried an alternative adviser who was not able to help, and the client was about to lose the property. Not only was I able to help the client, I also assisted with instructing the necessary conveyancing to prevent the case collapsing as Mr Jackson was unable to do that either.

At no point in the process, which due to circumstances took nearly a year, from Mr Jackson’s initial plea to me to help, until completion, did Mr Jackson ask for or even mention referral fees.

As a business, Optimus Mortgages has never asked for a referral fee from another adviser or stakeholder if a client has had to be referred elsewhere. Inevitably if a firm is asked to pay a referral fee, it is the client who shoulders the cost, and I do not want any of my clients to have additional costs that are born out of greed from an adviser.

Optimus Mortgages is proud of its service standards, its treatment of customers and other stakeholders in a client’s mortgage journey, all of whom support us honestly. Constructive, and honest reviews are always welcome, but childish and spiteful reviews from a competitor, who has messed up by not asking about referral fees, and has then subsequently sent threatening emails, and has posted negative reviews on customer review sites, says more about the reviewer than Optimus Mortgages.

Top quality, trustworthy service!

I worked with Tim to secure a buy to let mortgage on my property in what was a multi faceted lending case and Tim's service was second to none. He was incredibly responsive and went the extra mile with the lender to ensure that I was able to secure the funding I required.

Tim was professional and friendly throughout the process. He was happy to spend time explaining the process and answering any questions. There was no pressure on us to accept his recommendations and he gave us plenty of time to consider our options. More than happy with his service and would recommend him to anyone thinking of equity release.

Awesome Service!

Tim is amazing! He sorted my remortgage literally overnight when I’d left it so late that I was facing a huge hike in payment at the end of the month!! I can’t recommend Tim enough, supportive and patient, and I feel totally confident in his ability to get the best deal for me everytime! Thank you Tim, grateful to you as always.
