Luke McNally

Mortgage Adviser

In 2019, my wife and I bought our first home and got married. Once the dust settled, I realised it was the perfect time to pursue a new career. I’ve always enjoyed solving problems, working with numbers, and helping people, so becoming a mortgage adviser felt like the right path. I explored different options before deciding to study the mortgage qualification CeMAP from home while working at a local estate agency to gain hands-on experience. When Covid hit and furlough disrupted my work at the estate agency, I focused on my studies and completed all three CeMAP modules by the summer of 2020. By August of the same year, I began my career as a mortgage adviser and haven’t looked back since! [email protected] CeMAP Certified 033 0088 4407
