Independent Advice You Can Trust

TMC Mortgage Associates was built around one idea: that if your financial situation is more complicated than average, you deserve an adviser who actually understands it — not someone who'll just say no.

Tim Cobb · Principal Adviser
"I built this around the clients the high street turns away. Turns out, there are quite a few of them."

Tim Cobb, Principal Adviser

I started TMC Mortgage Associates because I kept seeing the same thing: smart, financially capable people being turned away by high street lenders simply because their situation didn't fit the algorithm. A company director drawing dividends. A landlord with six properties. A British expat living in Dubai wanting to buy back home. All perfectly creditworthy — just not in a way that a bank's system could understand.

I'm CeMAP-qualified and FCA-regulated, and I've spent years working specifically in the complex end of the market. That focus matters. I know which lenders will look at a multi-source income sensibly, which ones are genuinely comfortable with large portfolios, and which are set up to handle expat applications properly. That knowledge only comes from doing this kind of work day in, day out.

Most of my clients come back when they need to remortgage, and most of my new clients arrive through a recommendation. I think that's the most honest measure of whether this is working. I charge a fee for complex cases — that's what keeps the advice genuinely independent and focused entirely on what's right for you.

Whether you're a company director, a landlord with a growing portfolio, or a British national living overseas — if you've been told it's complicated, that's usually where I come in.

What Sets Us Apart

Whole-of-Market Access

I'm not tied to any lender or panel. That means I can look across the whole market and find what actually fits your case — not just what's easiest to place.

Built on Referrals

The majority of my clients come back, and most new enquiries arrive through a recommendation. I don't take that lightly — it means doing the job properly every single time.

Straight Talking

You'll always know what I'm recommending and why. No jargon, no surprises on fees, no pushing products that don't suit you. Everything in writing, in plain English.

Specialist, Not Generalist

I work in the complex end of the market by choice. The nuances of HNW lending, portfolio finance, and expat mortgages are things I deal with every week — not occasionally.
