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.

From the very start of the remortgage process, right through to the completion (and a little beyond!), Oliver Page of mortgage 1st has been absolutely brilliant! His knowledge and professionalism really put us at ease during what can be a very stressful time. Oliver and his colleagues made sure we were kept informed every step of the way, answered any questions we had, and always went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with all the details before proceeding. Thanks so much Oliver, you’re an absolute star and we hope your hardwork and dedication to your customers is as appreciated by mortgage 1st, as much as you deserve! THANK YOU

Had a fantastic experience with this company, this is my second time using them. I can not fault them, they have been fantastic from start to finish. They have assisted me with 3 mortgages within a short space of time. They have been extremely informative and helpful throughout. I am super impressed and I wouldn’t go anywhere else now for my mortgages. Special mention to Edward and Beverley who have been fantastic :) thanks to the team for making a potentially stressful situation very easy :)

I have been using Mortgage 1st for 16 years nearly and they are simple and easy to deal with, and have a quick turn around. I have been dealing with Nikki for half of this time and she is always professional, this year is the first time I have dealt with Paula after the mortgage offer and it has been a simple process. Will no doubt continue to use them for years to come.

Daniel and his assistant Paula were absolutely fantastic to work with! From start to finish, they made the mortgage process smooth, stress-free, and straightforward. Daniel’s knowledge and professionalism gave me complete confidence, and Paula’s attention to detail and responsiveness ensured that no question went unanswered. They were both friendly, approachable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled quickly and efficiently. I couldn’t have asked for a better team—highly recommend mortgage 1st to anyone looking for a mortgage broker who truly cares about their clients!
