Who we are
Pepper Money are a multi-award-winning specialist lender offering Residential and Buy to Let mortgages exclusively through intermediaries.
We believe in challenging the accepted, taking a more human approach to underwriting, to build a truer picture and reach a fairer outcome for your customers.
What we do
At Pepper, we pride ourselves on our ability to look beyond the numbers on a credit score. Our specialist team of skilled, mandated underwriters review each case on its own merits.
With broad criteria, competitive pricing and a positive lending attitude, we help you to help more of your customers. From first time buyers and the recently self-employed, to those with adverse credit or complex incomes.
