Your local mortgage broker in Whitby.

Why choose DAN?

Meet Dan, your Whitby mortgage advisor.

Dan has spent over 7 years in financial services, including 6 years advising on mortgages. He holds the CeMAP qualification and previously worked at Apex Mortgage & Protection Ltd. He founded Your Door Mortgage Advice to offer something he felt was missing: a personal, local service where you deal with the same person from your first call to the day you get your keys.

Born and raised in nearby Scaling, Dan now lives in Whitby with his family. He’s truly local, and understands Whitby’s property market and the needs of the people who live here.

For Dan, it’s about more than finding a mortgage. It’s about making a big decision feel straightforward, explaining your options in plain English and giving you advice that fits your circumstances.

Outside work, Dan enjoys time with his family, who might say his love of dad jokes is a little too enthusiastic. He’s also a keen football fan who still plays as well as watches.

Mortgage advice that understands Whitby.

Buying or remortgaging on the Yorkshire coast isn’t always straightforward. Many of Whitby’s homes are older stone properties, listed buildings or flats above shops, and some lenders won’t touch them. Others will, if you know where to look. That’s where local knowledge makes a real difference.

Dan regularly helps clients with:

• Older and unusual properties. Period cottages, listed buildings and homes of non-standard construction.
• Holiday lets and second homes. Finding lenders that understand the coastal holiday market [and the recent tax and council tax changes].
• Seasonal and self-employed income. Tourism, hospitality, fishing and trades, where income can vary through the year.
• First-time buyers. Getting onto the ladder in a town where local prices and wages don’t always line up.

Why choose a whole of market broker in Whitby?

Because I’m not tied to a handful of lenders, I can compare mortgages from across the market, including deals you can’t get by going direct to a bank. I work with lenders every day, so I know which ones are likely to say yes to your circumstances, which saves you from declined applications that can affect your credit file.

• Whole of market advice from 100+ lenders
• One adviser from first call to completion
• Clear fees, explained before you commit
• Face-to-face meetings in Whitby, or by phone and video
• Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority
