About Us

Opportunity Mortgages was born from personal experience. Our founder, Alex Sheath, knows first-hand how challenging it can be to secure a mortgage when you’re self-employed.

A few years ago, Alex sat on the other side of the desk – a self-employed professional feeling frustrated by lenders who didn’t understand irregular incomes.

Instead of giving up, he turned that experience into inspiration. Armed with six years of experience in financial services and a determination to make a change, Alex created Opportunity Mortgages as a brokerage that truly gets self-employed clients.

At Opportunity Mortgages, your goals become our goals, and we’ll be by your side from the first conversation to the day you get the keys to your new home (and beyond).
