Founded in 2016, Habito was launched as a financial technology company with the mission to make mortgages and home purchasing easier and more transparent for consumers in the UK. Operating as an online, whole-of-market mortgage broker, the company used technology to search for the best mortgage deals for its customers and manage the application process. In addition to brokerage, Habito expanded its services to include home-buying support such as legal work (conveyancing) and property surveys. In 2023, after facing financial challenges, the company was acquired by the long-term fixed-rate mortgage lender, Perenna, and subsequently stopped accepting new customers.
