Communication was misleading and inconsistent I’d strongly recommend keeping the review factual and evidence-based rather than “naming and shaming” individual employees personally. Publicly accusi... Read more Reviewed on: 8th May 2026

Review of the Habito, Mortgage broker:

Very good

5
This is very good idea to give more options to investors to find good and cheap rate of interest. Reviewed on: 31st January 2019

Great help from Habito

5
I took a mortgage out a couple of years ago from Habito off the back of a friends recommendation. I wasn’t disappointed. When I needed to remortgage this time I went straight to them. It’s perfect for me because I hate it when I’m bombarded with marketing phone calls for mortgages and prefer this way of working. It’s clean and simple abs everyone I’ve dealt with had been very responsive. In the middle of the two full applications I’ve also asked for various other mortgage in principles for other projects and the team have been on hand every time even though they didn’t transpire. Thanks so much! Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

Does the job

2
The system is good in theory. But in execution it requires work. I only knew about my valuation and offer as a result of asking for the NatWest tracking number. By the time the tracker has updated, it was after my mortgage offer had come through. I have had no updates, only requests for further documents which should have been requested at the outset (such as proof of deposit). Also I had to explain how a number of accounts added up to make a deposit (basic maths). In essence, I feel that little work was done save for forwarding on some documents.

Excellent service

I had a mortgage in principle within an hour, my application was submitted within a day and I had my mortgage offer within a week. Communication was excellent, got back to me straight away. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

How it should be done

5
Sometimes you think that doing it online instead of in person will be easier but not necessarily quicker, and will lack a personal touch. This is absolutely not the case with Habito. All messages were responded to quickly - it's easy to see if people are online, if they have read your message, if they are typing etc. There is a great blend of 'stock' messages - templates that give you explicit instruction - but rather than impersonal, they feel appropriate - and there is always, always, someone there on the other side to talk to. And the communication is great. On top of that - the UI/UX is first class. Its desktop based but hands over to an app for document uploads. Really impressed. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Excellent as always
