James and co were fantastic, guided me superbly and when one bank said no, quickly changed me to another bank in time to get the house I was after. Comms were always clear and precise.

James gave me advice of things I don’t know from his industry. James was able to work quickly when we gave him short notice but also gave us realistic timelines.
Very understanding of life circumstances

Amazing experience with Gina!
Gina was absolutely fantastic helping us buy our first home in Wanaka! She made what could have been a stressful process seem easy and was always there when we needed her.
Not only is she brilliant at her job, but she's also just a genuinely lovely person to work with. We honestly couldn't have asked for better support.
Thanks for everything, Gina - you're a legend!

It was great because I came away with a result namely being able to start my new build project. Gina guided me through the process & gained my trust with my most significant purchase / investment. I recommend her highly to anyone seeking the guidance of a property finance professional.
Great to deal with
Great to deal with, everything was explained and dealt with clearly. Would recommend to anyone looking for a broker!

We were recommended James when first starting out looking for a new property, and now we're more than happy to recommend James and his team to others. The use of technology made the process super easy. James and Dean negotiated great terms with the bank on two occasions for us over a 4 month period. James' expertise and knowledge meant we didn't have to sell our existing property but could keep it as an investment property! We look forward to working with the team again when our fixed rates come up for renewal in 2 years time.
My experience with Gina has been…amazing
My experience with Gina has been nothing but amazing right from the first phone call. Gina makes having a mortgage a breeze especially when it came time to Refix. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a mortgage broker. Keep up the fantastic work Gina
Highly recommend
James and his team were fantastic to work with. He walked us through the processes very well for two people who were struggling to understand all our potential options. Highly recommended!
