About Us

ELLIS JAMES FINANCIAL LTD

 Ellis James Financial has over 30 years of experience in the estate agency and financial services industry to share with our clients. 

Our advice comes with a lifetimes network of contacts and expertise to call on for support, and we aim to deliver brilliant customer outcomes every time. 

Our independent verified client reviews, which you can see on Vouchedfor, are a testament to that, and of course, we are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

A 5 Star client review is worth so much more than simply telling you how good we are, so we use an independent review site with over 70 five-star reviews.

We chose Vouchedfor because their advisors are checked more thoroughly than any other. They independently vet members to ensure each one is authorised by the appropriate governing body and confirm key details such as their fees and qualifications etc. 

Vouchedfor is like Trip Advisor or Trust Pilot but for financial advisors where clients can rate and review the service and advice they have received. You can be sure these are genuine reviews from real customers because Vouchedfor verifies their identity and never removes or edits negative reviews.

Further, we are proud to have been selected to appear in The Sunday Times Top Rated Financial Awards for 2021 for our high number of 5 Star Reviews. When you become a client, we want to be sure that you would not hesitate to recommend us to your colleagues, friends and family for advice, and we will ask you to provide a review at the end of your journey too.

My career in the estate agency and financial services industry began in March 1991. I have worked in Bristol, Bath, Wiltshire, South Wales, Swindon, Gloucestershire, and Worcester, but we have arranged mortgages all over the UK.

I am qualified with The Chartered Institute of Insurance to Certificate Level (CII-MP). The CII's charter is to secure and justify the public's confidence in its members and the sector. They do this through setting standards of integrity, competence and capability relating to insurance, mortgage and protection advice in UK financial services regulation & ethics

I have met all kinds of clients, experienced all types of properties and situations, so you can be sure that, no matter what hurdles we may encounter, chances are I have dealt with them before.

I appreciate that sometimes mortgages and insurance can seem a bit daunting- that is why you engage an expert, so I will explain everything in plain English to ensure that you are getting advice that matches your needs.
