My husband and I are first time buyers. We had a really positive experience securing mortgage cover. Colin was so knowledgeable and guided us through the process. Our case was not entirely straightforward from a medical point of view, so having someone on the other end of the phone or advising us by email at every step of the process made it much easier than we had thought it might be! Thank you, Colin!

Outstanding Support From Start to FinishWe received our mortgage drawdown and keys to our new home on 22nd December 2025, and we honestly couldn’t have reached this milestone without the incredible support of Bernadine from LowQuotes.From the very beginning of our journey, Bernadine went above and beyond. She was professional, patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to explain every step clearly — no matter how many questions we had. What truly stood out was how invested she was in our success; this never felt like a transaction, but a genuine partnership.The mortgage process can be overwhelming, but Bernadine made it feel structured, manageable, and even reassuring. Her responsiveness, attention to detail, and commitment to getting the best possible outcome for us were exceptional.We are deeply grateful for her dedication and would wholeheartedly recommend Bernadine and LowQuotes to anyone starting their mortgage journey.

As a first-time buyer, buying as a single applicant, I had a million questions, and Niamh McCaul answered every single one with patience and expertise.She went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and confident with my decisions. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated to her client's success.I cannot recommend Niamh highly enough! From our very first phone call, she made the entire mortgage process feel seamless and stress-free. As someone who was quite overwhelmed by the paperwork, Niamh’s ability to explain everything in plain English was a lifesaver.She was always one step ahead, keeping me updated at every turn and securing a fantastic rate. If you want a mortgage advisor who is professional, proactive, and genuinely cares about her clients, look no further.Thank you, Niamh, for making my dream home a reality!Shane.

Used low quotes to get a better deal on our life protection and mortgage protection as the banks were a bit unsustainable. Wish I had done this from the start. We had Alan Broderick from the start, he's fantastic at what he does, makes it very human and personal experience. Explained everything without being too jargon-y. He was patient and very helpful with following up with our case. Would highly recommend you give them a call 🙂

Advantages of Getting Cancer Only Cover

Cancer Cover is an insurance policy that provides you with a cash lump sum upon a cancer diagnosis. This financial support aims to minimise your stress, allowing you to focus solely on your recovery and well-being. This coverage can be purchased either as a standalone option or as an addition to an existing life insurance policy. These are some of the reasons to get this specific type of cover: 

Serious Illness Cover is out of reach

If you’ve been denied serious illness cover due to pre-existing conditions such as heart issues or diabetes, cancer cover emerges as  viable alternative.

Preparedness against high risk 

With the highest cancer rates in Europe and nearly 45,000 people in Ireland diagnosed each year, cancer cover is essential for financial and health security.

No financial stress from medical costs and utility bills.

Cancer patients face average monthly expenses of over €261 for medicines and medical expenses, with total additional costs reaching €756 and sometimes even surpassing €1,000, underscoring the significant financial burden of a cancer diagnosis. 

Supplement Income 

If you need to take time off work for treatment or recovery, the lump sum from cancer cover can help replace lost income during this period.

Affordable Premiums

Cancer cover premiums can be more cost-effective than comprehensive serious illness insurance.
