Our Happy Clients and what they have to say

Private client, 10 February 2021

 

As always we felt reassured and are happy that our funds are in Mike and Danielle’s excellent hands.

Thank you for being so prompt, ….What would we do without the staff of Harcourt Martens and Associates?  We would never have been able to run this programme successfully and for so many years without all your assistance,  both practically and financially.

It was good to sit down with you for the kind of chat we haven’t had for some while. We were able to catch up with each other – and we always seem to end up laughing about circumstances, even though wealth is supposed to be a serious subject!

Private client, 24 April 2020

 

Mike, we’ve been associated for more years than I care to count now – and I’ve always had great confidence in you and your associates as financial advisors. I have only ever modified my investments when you have said that it was appropriate – and we’ve certainly been through some ups and major downs over the years. And I believe that its due to your advice (and my taking it!) that I am still able to live at a reasonable level.
