The Quayside Difference

Why Choose Quayside Mortgage Group?

We're not restricted to one lender. We're qualified professionals who use your circumstances to match you with the mortgage options available — designed to help you make informed decisions with confidence.

Whole of Market Access

We search hundreds of lenders — including mortgages you won't find on the high street or comparison sites.

Personal Service

Based in the North East, you'll always deal with the same adviser — no call centres, no handoffs.

Every Situation Considered

Adverse credit, self-employed, complex income — we know which lenders will say yes when others won't.

We Handle Everything

One conversation is all it takes. We manage the forms, chase the lender, and keep you updated throughout.

Total Cost Transparency

We'll always be upfront about fees and charges — no surprises, no hidden costs.

Why Choose Us

Expert Advice with a Personal Touch

At Quayside Mortgage Group, we believe everyone deserves the right mortgage — whether you're a first-time buyer, looking to remortgage, or building an investment portfolio. We work with the whole of market to find the mortgage that fits your circumstances, not just a standard product off the shelf.

Whole of Market Access

We're not restricted to a single lender. We search across hundreds of mortgage products to find the right mortgage for your situation.

Adverse Credit? No Problem

A complex credit history doesn't have to mean no mortgage. We specialise in finding solutions others can't.

Available When You Need Us

We don't work 9–5. Whether it's an evening call or a weekend question, we're here when it suits you.

What We Offer

Our Services

From your first home to specialist finance, we cover every stage of your mortgage journey.

First Time Buyers

Buying your first home is a big deal. We'll walk you through every step, explain your options clearly, and make sure you get the right mortgage from the start.

Remortgages

Whether you're coming to the end of a fixed rate, releasing equity, or consolidating debt — we'll find you the right mortgage.

Buy to Let

First-time landlord or growing portfolio? We advise on personal and limited company buy to let, across all property types.

Protection & Insurance

If you have a mortgage or dependants, personal protection insurance safeguards against life's unexpected challenges. We advise on:

  • Life Insurance — lump sum or regular income for your loved ones
  • Critical Illness Cover — tax-free lump sum on serious diagnosis
  • Income Protection — up to 70% of earnings if you can't work
  • Family Income Benefit — regular income to your family, not just a lump sum

Bridging Finance

Short-term lending to bridge the gap between buying and selling, or to fund a time-sensitive purchase before long-term finance is in place.

Some bridging finance is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Later Life Lending

Equity release and retirement interest-only mortgages for homeowners over 55 looking to unlock the value in their property.

A Lifetime Mortgage is a long-term commitment which could accumulate interest and is secured against your home. Equity release is not right for everyone and may reduce the value of your estate.

Adverse Credit

A difficult credit history doesn't have to mean no mortgage. We specialise in finding solutions for those who've been turned away elsewhere — CCJs, defaults, missed payments and more.

Commercial Finance

Flexible funding for businesses of all sizes — from expansion projects to property acquisitions. We also support limited company landlords and portfolio investors.

Most commercial mortgages are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Business Insurance

Safeguard your business with insurance policies covering key person insurance and relevant life cover — all available through your limited company.
