About Mortgage 1st & Peak Mortgages:

We are an award-winning team of experienced Mortgage & Protection Advisers offering professional advice to customers across the UK. With over 40 qualified advisers and a wealth and breadth of knowledge, we can assist with any enquiry. Our team prides itself on delivering five-star service, supported by 20+ dedicated staff members who guide you through the entire mortgage process efficiently.

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.

As a first time buyer I didn't have a clue were to start or what options were available to me. Megan was very friendly and kept it simple for me. The process of applying for the mrgage was quick and painless.

Top quality service! Megan took out all the stress and hassle out of remortgaging finding us a great new deal. Her, Becky and Sarah made the full process straightforward and answered any questions i had prompt and clearly and made things simple for me. Would highly recommend Mortgage 1st and particularly Megan!

Megan did a whole remortgage for me and not only saved me a fortune but kept me up to date through the whole process, making it stress free and easy. She has a great support team and always responds quickly to messages which is vital when dealing with money. I have referred several of my clients to her now and she looks after them with the same care and attention that she has shown me. I highly recommend her and will be using her services again later this year when I am looking to move.

Once again we have received a perfect service from Mortgage1st. Our advisor Nikki Betts not only dealt with our mortgage renewal this year but had also helped us secure our new mortgage on our new home. It was simple, stress-free and so well supported through the whole process because Nikki was always there to answer emails and always at the end of the phone for us to ring. We couldn’t recommend her enough. Thank you also to Sarah Cave who helped guide us through the process following our mortgage application and for your swift response to all our emails. We are extremely happy with the service we always get from this company and they really make you feel as though you have their undivided attention and really make the whole process of selling and buying a house very easy and stress-free, and also extremely cheap service! Thank you very much.

Very responsive and approachable service offering a pragmatic approach to mortgages. Megan took time to get to understand my needs, always answered every question in detail. This really empowered me to make the decision I was happiest with. Mortgage first arranged my original mortgage and two remortgages and I’ve consistently been impressed by how simple they’ve made it each time

Would definitely recommend Mortgage 1st to anyone. Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, polite staff. I dealt with Shaun for the first stage of my process then the rest was dealt with by Beverly. Nothing was too much trouble for them to handle, and no question was too daft (on my part). Smooth effortless process when I otherwise couldn't have got the outcome and result that I now have. Many thanks to the team.

We have used Mortgage 1st for many years now for multiple remortgages and more recently a buy-to-let purchase. No matter which adviser and administrator helped us the service has always been excellent. Thank you! We will continue to recommend Mortgage 1st and will be back in touch in time for our next remortgage.
