OneDome snaps up former Goldman-backed mortgage broker Trussle
Sky News understands that OneDome, which integrates mortgage, legal, and insurance services into a single online process, has agreed a deal to buy Trussle from US-listed Better Home & Finance Trading Company.
The terms of the deal were unclear on Thursday, with the transaction subject to approval from the City regulator.

Trussle, which trades as Better.co.uk, was founded in 2015 and raised close to £30m in a series of funding rounds.
Its sale in 2021 reportedly valued the business at a significant discount to that sum.
In a statement issued to Sky News, Babek Ismayil, founder and chief executive of OneDome, said: "Trussle has built an excellent team and a reputation for innovation and customer focus.
"We share a clear vision: that buying a home should be simpler, faster, and less stressful.
"Trussle's Smartbuyer proposition closely mirrors our own award-winning HomeBuyer Service, and combining our strengths is a natural next step to transforming this historically outdated sector."
Sources said the transaction would edge OneDome - chaired by the veteran former City lawyer Sir Nigel Knowles - closer to a five-year goal of being involved in 10% of all UK homebuying transactions.
The combined group, they added, would facilitate over £3.5bn in annual mortgage lending and process roughly 1,100 property transactions each month.
It will have a workforce of about 230 people.

Tutor Perini subsidiary begins $48.9m projects in UK and Puerto Rico
Perini Management Services, a subsidiary of Tutor Perini, has initiated work on two previously awarded construction projects valued at a total of $48.9m. One of the projects is located at Royal Air Force (RAF) Lakenheath in the UK while the other is at the Rio Bayamon Housing site in Puerto Rico. At RAF Lakenheath, the project is valued at over $28.4m and has been awarded through the US Air Force's Worldwide Engineering & Construction contract. According to Tutor Perini, the scope of work encompasses civil, mechanical, and electrical components. The tasks include designing and constructing security fencing, installing aircraft, vehicle, and pedestrian gates, and developing infrastructure for surveillance equipment alongside patrol roads. This project began in February 2025, with plans for substantial completion in late 2026. In Puerto Rico, meanwhile, the Rio Bayamon Housing Infrastructure project is being undertaken for the US Coast Guard with a contract value of over $20.4m. This design-build project aims to bolster the resilience of the site's electrical and water storage systems. It involves constructing new access roads and security features, patching existing roadways for upgraded electrical distribution, as well as selective demolition and improvements to storm drainage systems. Work commenced in January 2025, with an anticipated completion in early 2027. Tutor Perini is a US-based construction company that delivers general contracting and design-build services worldwide to both private entities and public agencies. Earlier this month, Tutor Perini Building, another subsidiary of Tutor Perini, secured a $220m contract awarded by the Tule River Gaming Authority. The contract pertains to the expansion of Eagle Mountain Casino in Porterville, California, US. This project will include building a new hotel tower with a rooftop restaurant, expanding an existing restaurant, and adding an events centre with convention space. Construction on this project is expected to start in mid-2025, with completion scheduled for 2027.
