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.

Chad and Katie have been amazing! They have both been incredibly helpful at every point. Their communication is fantastic, they got me a great deal and have made the process feel really smooth and easy. I can’t say enough good things about them and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for help with their mortgage.

Matthew arranged the mortgage with speed and efficiency, took the stress of administration away from us with Preet diligently working alongside. No doubt other members of staff were also working hard for us to achieve the result we requested. Thank you all.

Amazing customer service, Mathew couldn't do enough for us from the start & I asked A LOT of questions 😅 Bev then took over from the application part of the process and was very helpful too. I'd recommend Mortgage 1st to anyone, 2nd time we have used them so wouldn't go anywhere else!

After being ghosted by another Mortgage Broker at a firm I’d used in the past, Kirsty (and subsequently Katie) were really helpful and managed to get things on track despite my challenges of being self employed and having some seasonal income, etc.

Excellent customer service. Adam was so helpful and made everything very straight forward. The whole process ended up being a lot less painful than expected - mainly due Adam and Mortgage 1st.

Andrew Hunt has been my mortgage advisor and I couldn’t be more pleased with the level of service. As a first time buyer, the whole process is an alien one, and can be overwhelming, but he has made it all much more streamline and easy to understand. He is also very easy to maintain contact with. Would definitely advise using his services.

Great company. I had Andrew Hunt as my mortgage advisor and he was absolutely brilliant. He made lots of time for me when I needed it and always answered last minute calls and emails. He made everything easy to understand and was very friendly and made the whole process a lot less stressful. I would fully recommend him to anyone looking to get a mortgage.
