The Home Me Mortgages founding team

2021

Founded in Marlow to make the mortgage process transparent, accessible and stress-free.

Our story

Building trust, one mortgage at a time.

What started as a small team of passionate advisers has become one of the most trusted whole-of-market brokerages in the Thames Valley.

We're not tied to any lender, and never incentivised to recommend a deal that isn't genuinely right for you. Our advisers come from high street banks, fintech and wealth management, and that depth matters when your case isn't straightforward.

We understand the property markets across Marlow, Windsor, Maidenhead, Reading, Ascot, Bray, High Wycombe and beyond, so we match you with the right lender faster and with less stress.

  • Whole-of-market advice, with no lender ties
  • Access to 90+ lenders, including exclusive deals
  • Complex cases welcome: self-employed, bad credit, large loans
  • Local expertise across Berkshire and Buckinghamshire
  • Ongoing support: we review your mortgage at every renewal

Our values

What we stand for

Honesty

We tell you what we think, not what you want to hear. If a mortgage is not the right move right now, we will say so.

Transparency

No hidden fees, no confusing jargon, no small print surprises. We explain everything clearly at every stage.

Responsibility

We operate under FCA regulation and take that seriously. Your financial wellbeing is not secondary to a commission.

Accessibility

Good mortgage advice should not only be for people who already have wealth. We work with first-time buyers, complex cases and everyone in between.

Excellence

We aim for the best outcome on every case, and that standard does not slip because the case is smaller or more complex.

Communication

We keep you informed, respond quickly and do not go quiet during the process. You always know where your case stands.
