Leave it to the professionals
We had the feeling that James and his team really tried to help us get the mortgage we needed. It is what they are good at. It was a smooth process, the follow ups were great and we not only got the mortgage but a little bonus as surprise, negotiated by the team. We would not have been able to do it ourselves by going to our own bank! Thank you!

I wanted to give Gina 10 star instead of 5 star…. Working with her was awesome experience.. she made my loan so easier… she was available when I need her and she was more into it…
Excellent from start to finish
Excellent communication from the whole team. Clear and concise advice and instructions. No pressure just guidance. Saw us through the whole process and now we are living in our own home.
The best in the business!
If you’re looking at your first home, second home, refinancing or refixing, then I would absolutely recommend getting in touch with Gina from Mike Pero Mortgages. I’ve dealt with at least 3 other mortgage brokers in the past and was left wondering what the point even was in using them, I could probably do a better job myself directly with the banks. Luckily I was recommended to get in contact with Gina. Gina has 100% changed my mind. Her knowledge of the lending industry is second to none in my opinion. She listened to what my partner and I needed and quickly matched us with a lender and strategy for getting our lending approved. We only had very limited time to close on our conditional offer and Gina did exactly what she said she would when she said she would do it. We went from our very first phone call to approval in 1 week (a massive contrast to our last broker who had spun us around for over 2 months!). She also helped us arrange our insurances which had extremely competitive pricing (a few hundred $ cheaper per month better than anything I could arrange myself). If you’re having second thoughts about using a broker like we were then take this as your sign to give Gina a call, you will not be disappointed!!

Highly Recommend!
As a first home buyer James and his team made the whole process very easy and took a lot of the stress away. Every step of the application was explained to me in way that I could understand and I knew what to expect next. James's professionalism, guidance and personal touch made me feel valued from start to finish.
Going forward James will be the only mortgage broker I will use, highly recommend!
