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.

It’s been a long journey seeking a home for the first time which can be frustrating. However having help from Hyat through the process has been so helpful for the right guidance my husband and I needed. The professionalism throughout the company has been appealing, Becky was also a huge help too. Great communication reassured my husband and I through the difficult times and I’m pleased of the experience I’ve had with mortgage 1st for sure.

Hyat and Becky have been absolutely fantastic. We’ve had a long process and needed to apply for a mortgage twice through them but at no fault of their own as the new build we wanted to go for was delayed pass our mortgage offer expiry date. Hyat and Becky are both excellent at what they do, Hyat providing expert advice and Becky being a model professional, gathering all our documents in a clear way. We are almost at the end now and despite whether we complete with this second home or not- Hyat and Becky have been stars.

The service I had so far from Carl and Becky from Mortgage 1st has been outstanding . I have had services from few different mortgage consultants over more than a decade but never had such a best-spoke service . Carl always had time to discuss matters in detail and never rushed things although he had a busy working schedule . His excellent attitude ,having the patience to explain things in detail, responsiveness, accountability is what bought me in to his world of business . His efforts were always in the direction of helping the customer to develop better understanding of the dealings. That was his prime motive but not acquisition of more businesses for him . I wish both of them the very best .

If I could give this company a thousand stars I would! Danny who was our contact and advisor has been amazing. From the first contact to receiving our mortgage offer, he’s been in contact with us constantly, and so has Becky updating us on the process and what is one of the most stressful and anxious times, especially with the way things are at the moment, has actually turned into an enjoyable one! They are incredibly helpful, they can’t do enough for you. Thank you so so much!!!

Jonathan has made this process extremely easy and completely individualised to our needs. He has kept us up to date through the process and what the next steps are. We could not have asked for a better service from Jonathan. We got a great mortgage and we are really looking forward to moving into our new home! Would recommend Jonathan’s services to everyone.

We used mortgage 1st with our broker Jonathan (Grantham - Lincs) to obtain our mortgage. The whole process was well delivered and communication was easy throughout. Other colleagues at Mortgage 1st were also part of the process and again, these transactions and communications were great. We couldn’t recommend Mortgage 1st enough to find a great deal. We shall use them again when our mortgage deal ends. Thank you Mortgage 1st. Mike and Danielle.

Chris took the stress out of a difficult situation almost two years ago and has just, along with Izzy, made renewing my fixed rate so easy. Everybody that I have had contact with at Mortgage 1st have been brilliant! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
