Helpful and Great Communication

Jody has been most helpful in the purchasing of my first home.

There was great communication from start to finish, the process was laid out and made simple. I always felt like she was on my side when it came to any agreements.

Thankyou for your help Jody.

Time/Knowledge is Everything

As a very busy working mother, time and all the paperwork (especially for my 1st home purchase, with minimal knowledge) would have been very challenging to get around. Engaging with Mike Pero, made it very simple, as they took all that stress off me. I had peace of mind, knowing that knowledgeable experts are handling all the processes including the insurance and lawyers. I was able to concentrate on my work, family and personal matters as usual, without major interruption.
As a new 1st time buyer, I had a million questions about.... just everything, some of them popped up in the middle of the night or weekends, but I was able to get all my questions answered very promptly, no matter how silly they were.
They were (and still are) very friendly, involved and supportive.
It definitely made my experience much easier.
Above all, the service was absolutely FREE! I must admit, in today's world, that felt very strange.
Thank you Jody.

Professional and knowledgeable

This the third time we've dealt with Jody and she has treated us seriously and with respect. We wouldn't be sitting in our own home now without her help - she got us over the line when we needed it. Jody was at the end of an email or a phone call for advice and in times of stress. She's very knowledgeable and professional and we would highly recommend her services.

Superstar Broker

Paula went out of her way to make sure I realised my dream of having my own home independently. Despite some of the challenges with lending at present, she continued to advocate for me until a favourable outcome was reached. She is a fabulous communicator and very responsive to emails and questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paula to anyone needing broker services and will certainly enlist her help again should I wish to purchase another property.

With the new strict lending criteria

With the new strict lending criteria, it seemed like we won't be able to build our dream home. However, Paula made the whole process feel like a breeze. Paula went over and above with clear communication. She helped with all our decision-making and had immense knowledge regarding all our queries. She was patient and friendly. I highly recommend Paula if you want a stress-free mortgage process. We had a great experience. Paula is An Excellent Broker. 5 stars from us :).

Jody did a fantastic job!

Jody did a fantastic job in helping us with our complex requirement of selling and buying at the same time. Always available, she understands husband and I works full time, hence she works late and responds to our email at late hours. Amazing that we don't have to meet in person, it worked for us really well, yet she delivered. 100% highly recommended and definitely use again.

Paula was so helpful and friendly from the first time we made contact. She answered all of our questions happily and in language that we would understand- we knew nothing so there were many questions. She helped us every step of the way with what needed to be done and was always a call or text away when we had a query or questions. Would definitely recommend her to others.
