SMH Residential Mortgages is delighted to announce Luke Catt as their new mortgage adviser following successful completion of the Certificate in Mortgage Advice and Practice (CeMAP).

Luke, who has worked with SMH for the past two years in a business development role, is now able to offer advice on all types of residential mortgages, and joins the team alongside head of department, Dan Lukic, to help with increasing client demand.

Luke comments: “I am delighted to be working for Dan and I’m looking forward to helping our current and future clients with their mortgage requirements.

“Having spent the previous 14 years of my career working in various finance roles, it’s a logical progression to retrain as a mortgage adviser, not only to further my career, but to also help grow the department to meet the ever increasing demand for mortgage advice.

“I’d like to thank SMH for supporting me through my study period, and I can’t wait to start working with our fantastic client base.”

Dan comments: “Having joined SMH in 2018 to set up the residential mortgage division, I’m delighted we are now in a position where we can start growing the team.

“The demand is most certainly there, in particular with mortgage rates at historic lows and an active property market, not to mention the re-introduction of 10% deposits on the horizon, so bringing Luke in to the team comes at a good time to ensure we have that extra capacity.

“Luke has worked hard to become CeMAP qualified, studying around a busy work and home life during the Covid-19 pandemic, and will be a great asset to the business.”
