About Trinity Mortgages

Our History

Trinity Independent Mortgage Brokers was established in 2005 by Peter Holmes, Becky Parsonage and Jamie Lee. All three had previously been employed together at a large firm of Independent Financial Advisers. A few years later, Jamie Lee retired from the mortgage industry. Pete & Becky’s knowledge, enthusiasm, experience and dedication to their many clients has established an extremely strong presence in the mortgage market and, following this, Trinity have expanded to become one of the leading brokerages in the southwest, their advice to clients being known to be of the highest standards of professionalism.



Trinity are totally independent so therefore have access to the whole mortgage market, thus providing the very best service for all their clients. We advise on purchases, remortgaging, first time buyers, development finance and also commercial finance. We are also independent in the insurance market and ensure that our clients have the best and correct protection products at all times.



Perhaps the highest accolade is that Trinity gain the majority of new customers via referrals from existing clients. Many new clients are also recommended via local estate agents, solicitors, financial advisers and employers.

Our People

Pete-Holmes

Pete Holmes

CeMAP

Pete has worked in the mortgage industry since 1999 and is a founding partner.  Pete is an expert in specialist areas including buy to let, commercial, self build, adverse credit, 2nd charge mortgages and residential mortgages.

What Pete doesn’t know about mortgages isn’t worth knowing.

Becky Parsonage

CeMAP

Becky has been engaged in the mortgage market ever since leaving college at the age of 18.  She initially spent her summer holidays working in a local estate agency and gained a passion for the housing market.

This soon led to an administration position at a large firm of Independent Financial Advisers where she later qualified as a mortgage adviser.

In 2005 Becky became one of the founding partners of Trinity Independent Mortgage Brokers and has seen the firm grow to be one of the leading local mortgage brokerages.

Becky believes that the success of Trinity is the result of the dedication, knowledge and support given to each and every client, whatever their requirements.
