My name is Chris Roberts and I started Kibworth Mortgages in January 2017 to provide friendly and professional services to aid clients to arrange mortgages and insurance needs. I am a local lad who was born and grew up in Kibworth. Started Kibworth Mortgages with the aim of having my own office in the heart of the village. I finally achieved this goal in September 2020, obtaining a prime office just off the roundabout in the village centre. We plan to be a big part of Kibworth and be established as a secure long-term business as it’s a fast-growing village that is close to my heart.
