John provided a five star service from start to finish. The whole process was very slick and extremely professional. Obtaining our mortgage was not a straight forward request due to being a new build property but John advised on what information we would require and spoke with all the right people to get our mortgage over the line. Will be using him again in the future.Posted on Google![]()

Absolutely brilliant service from John from start to finish. As first-time buyers, the mortgage process could have been really stressful and confusing, but John made everything so straightforward and easy to understand. He was always available to answer any questions we had, explained everything clearly, and kept us updated throughout the whole process. John worked hard to find us the right mortgage and has been incredibly helpful, professional and supportive every step of the way. We genuinely couldn't have asked for a better mortgage advisor and would 100% recommend John to anyone looking for a mortgage. Thank you for all your help!Posted on Google![]()

We have known John since we bought our first rental in 2009 and he has guided and helped us all the way. He laid out a plan for us that this month will be fulfilled exactly as he said it would. He has never let us down and he is always there when we have needed him. Nothing is too much trouble. Great guy and a true proffessional. Thanks John for everything. You are truly the best.Posted on Google![]()

I honestly don’t know how I would have got through buying my first house without John. From the very beginning, he helped us work out what we could afford and get our Agreement in Principle sorted, but his help went way beyond just arranging the mortgage. While we were viewing houses, he was always happy to give his thoughts on whether an asking price seemed sensible and what we might want to offer. His experience and knowledge were incredibly valuable when we were trying to navigate something we knew very little about. Once we found our house, John made the whole process so much easier. He was incredibly quick to respond, explained everything clearly and was always happy to answer my many questions! What really impressed me was how much he handled himself. He dealt directly with the estate agent, solicitors and lender, meaning we weren’t constantly stuck in the middle passing messages around. If an issue came up, he’d often just sort it in the background and let us know there was an issue but it's resolved, rather than adding to our stress. John genuinely cares about his clients and it really shows. He’s friendly, incredibly knowledgeable and always made us feel like we were in safe hands. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Five stars doesn’t really do justice to how much he helped us!Posted on Google![]()

As a first-time buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better mortgage broker than John. From our very first conversation, he was incredibly friendly and immediately put me at ease, making what initially felt like a daunting process feel straightforward and manageable. John’s communication was outstanding throughout. No question was ever too big or too small, and he always took the time to explain everything clearly and thoroughly. Thanks to his support, I was able to navigate the entire mortgage process with complete confidence. I never once felt stressed or under pressure, which made such a difference as a first-time buyer. His knowledge and expertise are second to none, and he was able to secure me a fantastic mortgage deal. I genuinely felt that he had my best interests at heart every step of the way. I can’t recommend John highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, approachable, and truly dedicated to helping their clients, he’s the person to go to. Thank you, John, for making such an important milestone such a positive experience!

Why buyers, homeowners and landlords choose Kemptown
Kemptown is located to the east of Brighton city centre, running along the seafront and into the residential streets, close to The Lanes and Brighton Palace Pier. Though it’s a relatively small area, Kemptown forms a popular part of Brighton & Hove and benefits from easy access to both city amenities and coastal walks.
Thanks to Brighton Station, it’s easy to travel from Kemptown to London Victoria, London Bridge and Gatwick Airport. This makes it a popular choice for commuters and professionals, whilst the cafés, restaurants, local shops, green spaces and direct access to the seafront and promenade draw in families. This combination of seaside living and city convenience keeps the demand for property in Kemptown consistently strong, including the rental market.
We search 1000's of mortgage deals across a large number of lenders, including...











What to expect from Kemptown’s property market
Kemptown attracts a wide range of buyers – from first time buyers and professionals, to buy-to-let landlords capitalising on the strong rental demand driven by the city’s growing workforce, hospitals and universities – and with the area’s mix of period apartments, converted townhouses and modern developments, there’s something for everyone. There’s even properties that are well suited to holiday lets.
Over the last year, house prices in Kemptown reached an average of around £471,000. The majority of the properties sold during the last year were flats – selling for an average of around £345,000 – but terraced properties and semi-detached properties were also popular, fetching averages of £593,000 and £1,036,000 respectively. These prices are in line with the wider Brighton property market.
