Digital mortgage broker Habito has launched a new accelerator programme for entrepreneurial mortgage broker firms looking to scale their business.
Through the Habito Accelerator, the mortgage broker will offer participating firms exclusive access to the knowledge and experience of its CEO, Ying Tan, as well as of his leadership team. Habito says that Ying is renowned for his track record in scaling businesses and achieving lucrative exits, making him one of the few industry leaders with such credentials.
Only three spaces are available in the inaugural cohort, in which mortgage broker firms can benefit from Habito’s technology, as well as from the opportunity to become part of the Habito growth story as the company embarks on an ambitious mergers and acquisitions strategy.
Habito says that successful firms will gain ‘invaluable’ insights and tools that can elevate their business prospects. They will also use the Habito Accelerator payment route, which boasts a broad set of lenders, including HSBC, Nationwide, NatWest, Barclays, Santander, Halifax, alongside other specialist lenders.

“The Habito Accelerator is a game-changer for mortgage broker firms looking to take their businesses to the next level,” Tan explained. “I am passionate about sharing the knowledge and resources that have helped me navigate the challenges of scaling a business. This initiative is not just about technology; it’s about fostering a community of driven entrepreneurs who are ready to innovate and excel in the mortgage market.”
The launch of the accelerator also highlights Habito’s commitment to supporting the growth of the mortgage broker sector and democratising access to opportunities within the industry. With this programme, Habito aims to nurture the next generation of successful broker firms. Applications to the programme will remain open until the end of March.
