When you need a mortgage or you need to look at protecting yourself we will work hard for you to find the best possible solution. We will do this quickly and efficiently and look after you throughout the whole process.
We can meet at our local office in Nottingham, in the comfort of your own home or anywhere which is convenient for you. We want to be as flexible as possible for you to make getting a new mortgage as easy as it can be. We feel that buying a new home or finding a new deal for an existing mortgage should not be difficult or stressful and that someone should be guiding you through it all.
From your first contact with us, you will have a dedicated mortgage adviser as well as a team who will always be on hand to answer any questions to give you updates throughout. You will have access to your own dedicated online portal which will conveniently keep you updated with the progress of your application. You can call, text or email any questions you have; we want to be available for you.
We work closely with a large panel of lenders and insurance providers to find you the right products to suit you and to get you the right deal. We offer a no obligation consultation so we can explain further what we can do for you and your options.
Director/Mortgage Advisor
Ryan Joyce
Director / Mortgage Advisor
Ryan has worked in financial services since he was 18 years old. Working his way through various jobs within the banking industry he eventually went onto his first Mortgage advice role in 2013.
Before setting up Key Mortgages and Protection, later to become Key Mortgages, Ryan worked for a large mortgage broker firm where he won several awards for service and performance. Ryan felt that he could take the vast wealth of knowledge he had gained and make the process of getting a mortgage much easier and more personal for his clients. He therefore decided to set up his own company at the beginning of 2020, to make that difference for his customers.
Ryan was born in Nottingham and other than a few years away in Lincoln and Leicester has lived and worked here all his life. He is a keen footballer and golfer and loves to talk about all things travel related. He is very family orientated and loves to spend as much time as he can outside of work with his wife Katrina and their son Teddy, who arrived in 2022.

Before becoming part of the team at Key Mortgages in 2021 he worked at a large mortgage broker firm based within a busy estate agents office in Lincoln. There he gained a great deal of knowledge around helping clients to buy their dream home and getting them that all important mortgage offer sent out.
Having worked with Ryan before, Daniel couldn't wait to be a part of the Key Mortgages team and has since helped to set up the Key Mortgages Lincoln branch based at The Sparkhouse near Lincoln University. He is here as one of our experienced advisers to help and support our clients by giving them specialist advice and making sure they have a stress-free journey from start to finish.

Jane Haskell
Mortgage Advisor
Jane has worked within financial services her entire working life, starting in a couple of local building societies then moving into mortgage broking at age 20 and she hasn't looked back.
Prior to joining Key Mortgages Jane worked at an established local brokerage for four years and prior to that, thirteen years within a national estate agency group where she mentored many new advisers - including Ryan!
Whilst working locally to where she grew up in West Bridgford, in her time Jane has been based in numerous estate agency offices throughout the East & West Midlands, Kent, and Southeast London. Gaining a great knowledge of a range of client circumstances, property build types and mortgage options, it’s no surprise she was known as 'the oracle' in her previous job roles! And indeed within the Key Mortgages team too.
Away from the office Jane can be found riding her new forest ponies, which have been a lifelong passion. She openly states that they are the reason why she works and that they keep her sane! She also enjoys being in the kitchen as she is a keen baker and cook although she is a big fan of eating out too!
Joel Adams
Mortgage Advisor
Joel has worked in the mortgage industry since he was 17 years old. Completing an apprenticeship in ‘providing financial services’. After achieving his apprenticeship, he became a case manager in a busy broker firm. His role included supporting advisers and clients throughout the mortgage process. During the covid-19 lockdown, Joel went on to complete his CeMap mortgage adviser qualification and moved into giving mortgage advice.
After a few busy years working for a brokerage in Derby, Joel moved to Sheffield to work as a mortgage adviser, specialising in shared ownership mortgages. This provided him with knowledge and experience to help clients to get onto the property ladder. Having known Ryan for several years and seeing the level of service Key Mortgages were able to provide to their clients, he was eager to join the team.
Joel was born in Nottingham and has worked around the area for most of his life. In his spare time, he is an avid golfer and enjoys watching football. When he’s not golfing, he likes to spend time socializing with his family or snuggling with his cat Pepper.

Lucy was born and raised in Nottingham. She has a degree from Nottingham Trent University in fashion and textiles, so a career in financial services was not expected. Outside of work Lucy enjoys Pilates workouts, socialising with friends, spending time with her family and most of all cuddling her dog, Pumba.
