As an independent mortgage broker, Haupt & Co is not tied to any single bank or lender. Unlike high-street banks, we assess a wide range of mortgage options across the market, including specialist lenders who consider cases on merit rather than rigid criteria. This broader access allows us to recommend mortgage and protection solutions that are genuinely tailored to your circumstances and always aligned with your best interests.

Haupt & Co Mortgage FAQs
No two situations are the same. These are some of the questions we’re asked most often.
What is an independent mortgage broker and why does it matter?
An independent mortgage broker works across the whole market rather than being tied to a single bank or lender. At Haupt & Co, we compare products from over 130 lenders, including specialist lenders that don’t appear on comparison sites, to find the most suitable option for your circumstances. This means you get impartial advice based on what’s right for you, not what a single lender wants to sell you.
Can a mortgage broker in Bristol get me a better deal than going direct to my bank?
In many cases, yes. Banks can only offer their own products, while we access the whole market. We also know which lenders are most likely to accept your application based on your income, credit profile, and circumstances which means fewer rejections and better outcomes. For complex cases in particular, the difference can be significant.
Do you help with buy-to-let and commercial mortgages as well as residential?
Yes. We advise across residential mortgages, buy-to-let and portfolio lending, commercial property finance, bridging finance, development finance, and asset finance. Whether you’re buying your first home or structuring finance for a growing property portfolio, we can help.
Can you help if I'm self-employed or have a complex income?
Yes – this is an area we specialise in. Many high-street lenders use rigid automated criteria that don’t reflect how self-employed income actually works. We work with lenders who assess applications on their merits, considering retained profits, contract income, and non-standard income structures to find solutions that work for your situation.
What areas do you cover as a mortgage broker?
We are based in Bristol and primarily serve clients across Bristol, North Somerset, Bath, and the wider South West. However, we advise clients throughout the UK, so wherever you are based, we can help.
How do I get started with Haupt & Co?

Sustainability
