Our head office in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, hosts a third of our team, with the rest working remotely across the UK. This ensures that no matter where you live or plan to buy, our team is available to help.

Founded in 2008 by Jon and Lisa Stones, our family-run business maintains core values of caring for employees, customers, charities, and the local community. Our positive workplace culture was highlighted when we were named a ‘Top Mortgage Employer’ in 2023 based on an anonymous staff survey. Winning prestigious awards like ‘Best Mortgage Broker (8-50 advisers) 2024’ at the Mortgage Strategy Awards and ‘Broker Firm of the Year (11-50 employees) 2023’ at the Financial Reporter Awards underscores the quality of our service.

Whether you're a first-time buyer, looking to release equity or consolidate debt, a landlord managing a portfolio, or in need of personal insurance policy reviews, our specialist advisers are here to help.

Buying your first home can be daunting, but our friendly, experienced advisers will guide you through the process and find the most suitable mortgage product. If you're looking to remortgage, purchase a buy-to-let property, or take out insurance, our expertise and guidance will save you time and provide peace of mind, ensuring you get the best deal after a thorough explanation of your options.

As advisers authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority, we ensure all customers are treated fairly. We listen to your needs and present the most suitable options. Your dedicated adviser and case handler will process your application, supporting you until your mortgage or insurance policy is completed.

Beyond Mortgage & Protection Advice, our sister company Specialist 1st offers second charge mortgages, auction finance, commercial mortgages, bridging loans, development finance, and mortgages for non-UK residents. We also recommend conveyancing solicitors, building surveyors, will writers, and equity release advisers.

As the largest mortgage & protection advice firm in Derbyshire, we have access to exclusive deals available only through selected firms, allowing us to pass potential savings on to you. Thousands of five-star reviews mention our team members by name, reflecting the care and attention they provide.

A significant portion of our business comes from returning customers or referrals, demonstrating the quality of our service.
Our support doesn't end when your mortgage completes. We'll stay in touch and inform you well in advance when your deal or term is ending, offering remortgaging or refinancing options and supporting you through the process again. We understand that life circumstances change, and we can review your insurance policies to ensure they still meet your needs.

We are your lifelong adviser, providing professional mortgage and protection advice through all of life's key milestones—from buying your first home and moving up the property ladder to renovating your forever home and later releasing equity to help fund your children's education, weddings, or house deposits.

I received stellar services from Mr Daniel Sykes and I would wholeheartedly recommend him everyone without hesitation. I received clear answers to all my questions and he helped me choose the best deal!

Myself and my fiancée have just had our first mortgage offer, we couldn't have done it without Danny and Sharlene's help, they have both been amazing. I said to Danny when we first spoke that he's going to have to explain everything like he's talking to a 5 year old, and he made the whole process feel very seamless. Thanks again!

Mortgage 1st we’re an absolute pleasure to work with. My contacts were Sophie Weaver and Keeley Craig. Both of these ladies provided an A* customer experience that I’ve not experienced in any other business. Friendly, approachable, knowledgeable and provided outstanding communication. My mortgage offer was better than I expected with Sophie securing me a fantastic deal with a great provider. Thank you both!

This is my third time working with Laurel at Mortgage 1st, and each experience has been exceptional. She consistently goes above and beyond, securing my latest mortgage offer in a remarkable 10 days! Her expertise and efficiency are truly impressive. I also want to highlight Amy from the internal admin team. She consistently provided prompt and helpful support, answering my questions and calls immediately. Thanks to Laurel and Amy's outstanding service, the entire mortgage process was seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend Mortgage 1st to anyone seeking a smooth and efficient mortgage experience.

As a 1st time buyer, I didn’t know where to start! From the moment I reached out for guidance Carl Robbins at Morgage 1st has been amazing. Very responsive and talked me through the process and supported every step. I can’t believe how quickly things have progressed from my first call in January to know just waiting on final completion. Preet Kharoud was great with supporting our Morgage application through to approval which took less than a week to come through which was just amazing. I will definitely be recommending Morgage 1st and a big thank you from me 😁

Laurel and Anne really went above and beyond from finding a lender and keeping us updated on a fairly complex purchase. they were always helpful especially when the interest rates came down which really will help for the next 5 years of the product. I have also got another purchase going through which I am so grateful for the work Laurel and Anne have put in too. They will be my first port of call on my next purchase or remortgage. Compared to working with the main UK broker which I wasted a duration of a year with a product that didn't fit, this was a breath of fresh air.

I dealt with Laurel during my mortgage application, she was extremely helpful with the whole process has I had previously been told I wouldn’t get a mortgage as I had just started a limited company up and told I didn’t have enough accounts, although my work hadn’t changed from the previous 12 years. Easily contactable and everything was dealt with within a day or two. Will definitely use again when my mortgage comes up for renewal, highly recommend
