Real Estate and Property Awards 2026 Most Trusted Mortgage Advisory Firm 2026 – Yorkshire & Employee Financial Wellbeing Excellence Award 2026 – Yorkshire Headquartered in Guiseley, Cox & Flight is a financial services firm delivering impartial mortgage and protection solutions that combine professionalism with a personal touch. Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, the firm provides a boutique, client-focused service encompassing mortgage advise, remortgaging support, buy-to-let investment guidance, and protection. We explored these services in further detail below, as Cox & Flight is named in the Real Estate and Property Awards 2026. The story of Cox & Flight began with Founders Simon Cox and Scot Flight, who both launched their careers in the residential estate agency sphere before shifting to focus on mortgage broking. They previously worked together as senior directors in a corporate business where thousands of mortgages and insurance policies were generated each year. However, the pair realised that there was significant room to improve the standards of services delivered to partners, associates, and clients across the sector. They established Cox & Flight in 2021 to do just that, providing an entirely unique boutique experience that does not compromise on value nor choice. Whether a client is a firsttime buyer, moving up the property ladder, remortgaging their home, or investing in a buy-to-let property, Cox & Flight delivers the same exact standards of impartial, extensive, and exclusive support. In a crowded market, Cox & Flight stands out for the pure breadth of its offering. As an appointed representative of HL Partnership Limited, Cox & Flight offers an integrated ecosystem of more than 140 lenders and not-on-thehighstreet deals. This encompasses one of the largest ranges of available deals in the market, providing clients with the widest possible choice for their borrowing and protection requirements. Beyond traditional mortgage advisory services, Cox & Flight offers a consultancy partnership service that helps boost the staff engagement and retention of its selected partners. The firm’s no-cost workplace benefit schemes provide employees with access to confidential financial advice at an exclusive discounted fee rate, with services spanning mortgage and remortgage advice, protection and general insurance, buy-to-let and bridging finance, and guidance surrounding pensions, wills, and investment. This service has never been more relevant to the market, at a time when employees are impacted by rising living costs and employers seek to scale back their benefits. Alongside boosted employee satisfaction and retention rates, these benefit schemes also contribute directly towards better workplace cultures, reduced financial stress, and improved recruitment processes. This wide array of benefits has earned Cox & Flight recognition with the Employee Financial Wellbeing Excellence Award 2026 for Yorkshire. In recent weeks, Cox & Flight has proudly welcomed another company into its family of partners. The Association for Perioperative Practice (AfPP), the UK’s leading membership organisation for perioperative professionals, has selected Cox & Flight as its preferred mortgage and insurance broking partner. Now, its employees enjoy exclusive access to specialist deals and discounts. To Cox & Flight, catering to the current workforce is equally as important as preparing the next for success. The firm has launched its own Academy, offering a clearly defined path for budding professionals to become fully qualified and competent mortgage advisors, guided by extensive specialist support at every stage of their journey. Trainees work alongside seasoned industry professionals, with the backing of HL Partnership, forging their career within a supportive, nurturing environment. The Cox & Flight Trainee Mortgage Advisor Academy provides learners with exclusive mortgage deals, market-leading technology, and the knowhow to build a self-generating client base. With advisor development training and one-to-one mentoring sessions, as well as a flourishing community of likeminded students and dedicated professionals, the Cox & Flight Academy is the best place to begin a thriving advisory career. With its sights set firmly on the future, Cox & Flight is preparing for a year of growth. The team is currently looking to increase its lead volumes through social media advertising and marketing campaigns, while selectively expanding its introducer and employer partnerships. This will give the firm the opportunity to increase its consultant numbers to keep up with the uplift in appointment requests, ultimately boosting turnover and bottom-line results. Since its inception, Cox & Flight has worked tirelessly to earn the trust and confidence of clients across the sector. The firm has carefully balanced professionalism with personability, delivering industry-leading services that clients know they can depend upon. From enhancing workplace cultures to preparing the next generation of mortgage advisors, Cox & Flight has certainly shaped the sector for the better through its exceptional endeavours. It is for this reason that we at BUILD Magazine are proud to name Cox & Flight Yorkshire’s Most Trusted Mortgage Advisory Firm 2026.
