Watch what an ethical approach to Equity Release means to Us

Meet Our Specialist Advisers

Equity Release, mortgages and loans are often male-dominated fields. At Premier, we are bringing a balance to the business.

Maxine Smithen

Maxine started working at The Mortgage Centre in 2010, dealing with Compliance and Human Resources for the whole of the group. This has given her an excellent understanding of clients’ needs and procedures.

Wishing to advance her career, she combined studies and work to gain her Mortgage and Equity Release qualifications.

Maxine loves what she does and takes particular enjoyment from helping her customers to achieve the life-changing results they’re looking for.

Our History

Born out of a need to cut through the patronising, soft-focus view of older people’s aspirations, we wanted to create an honest, professional Equity Release company that puts customer service first.
Our experience at The Mortgage Centre revealed to us that there are many people in their 50s-80s who needed our specialist help and advice.

What Puts Premier Above the Rest

Having an ethical approach means we put the customer first. We are real people who share your frustrations with long forms, automated systems and multiple hoops to jump through.

It’s our business to cut through the paper-pushing and look after your interests. We want to make sure you get the best rate, the right fees and an Equity Release scheme that best suits your needs, resources and lifestyle.
