Richard – Director/Principal
Richard Tadman is on a mission, the aim of which is to ensure that every person should have access to great advice, help and support when it comes to buying a house. Richard told us, “Too many people think of a broker as a salesperson, and at Aspire Financial Services this couldn’t be further from the truth.” He went on to say, “Every enquiry is treated as of equal importance, and we are good listeners, so we try to get the heart of what the client wants to do, whether it’s a simple or complex case, and give the appropriate advice.”
Prior to co-founding Aspire with Kenton, Richard worked in the corporate blue-chip environment for over 25 years. He lives in Congleton in Cheshire and covers Cheshire, Staffordshire and South Manchester.
When not helping people with mortgages Richard can be found running, cycling or musically directing shows in the local theatre. Richard’s strength lies in the ability to educate and inform, making complex things simple, helping people to understand how to plan their property investments wisely, and how to protect them.
He is easy going yet thorough, and very responsive to queries all the way through the case from start to finish, keeping you informed and up to date. If asked, he will also swap curry recipes with you – a very worthwhile exercise where he is concerned.
