Real Stories from Our Happy Clients

I just wanted to say a big thank you for helping me out with the refinance of my home loan. Everything went so smoothly and you guys kept me in the loop the entire time which is everything I could have asked for. The service at First Choice Mortgage Brokers is exemplary and I am always sure to bring it up if anyone asks me for mortgage broker recommendations 🙂

Mary – Woolooware NSW

Beth’s professionalism, approachability, and guidance through the whole process was absolutely fantastic. Even though there were several hurdles – such as working with NAB for the guarantor loan, Beth really helped drive the outcome and secured our loan so that we could hit our settlement date. We felt that Beth was just as invested in the success as we were, and is an absolute asset to First Choice Mortgage. We could not have done it without her! Elise and I would definitely return to work with Beth and First Choice Mortgage for any future mortgage finance needs.

Matt & Elise

Thank you for your time today on the phone and the detailed discussion of our home loan status. Further to our conversation, Tim & I would like to pass on our congratulations to Barbara Mourga, on her extremely timely and professional help with our particular ‘scenario’.

Melissa & Tim

I know this has come a little late but we wanted to thank everyone there so much for all of the help you were able to offer us during our home purchase. We are loving our new home and were really thrilled that everything worked out ok with the documentation and settlement.

Avril and Mike

I would like to personally recommend Finance made Easy to anyone looking at new home loans or refinancing. This company were fantastic. Although they are in NSW everything was done over the phone, the managing director Tony Bice phoned me personally several times throughout the process

Kerry and Gary Foulis

We cant tell you enough how happy we are to have dealt with you and your staff, Especially Lyndall . Thank you so much

Kerry and Gary Foulis

They are just the best to deal with. I am so glad I was given your companies number!

Angel Evans

Although belated, (I have been absent for the past 3 weeks) I would like to pass on our gratitude for the assistance you have provided with the purchase of our home. The gift basket was a lovely touch, and indicative of the personal customer service we have been afforded by yourself, Barbara, Taryn and everyone else we have dealt with.

Brad Pearson

We had a lovely hamper arrive on our doorstep today! What a nice surprise – and a lovely gesture. Love it – can’t wait to test out the champagne and choccies. Thank you for the gift – pleasure doing business with you guys – will be sure to pass on any recommendations to friends.

Sharon and Darren Quandt

Haha! Hmmm, marginally better, I certainly feel reassured that we technically only have one last hurdle to jump. Seeing the words ‘not a guarantee’ only gave me slight reason to stress. You’ve been wonderful, I really appreciate your patience and understanding. Not many people would be prepared to put up with that!

Kelly Pearson

So happy to hear some good news for you… I was quietly confident…. but we don't cheer until it is in writing. Still have to wait for a good val in SA – great news they aren’t doing a val on NSW – shows they are happy with the price you are paying! They do their research you know – more than likely that would have seen that you gotten it under market as they are more comfortable.

Barb

I received today a lovely congratulatory gift from both of you, which I thank you both for very much. Your excellence in professionalism, communication and assistance all the way through, with Taryn continually keeping me posted, alleviating my anxiety, and assisting to ensure that all was done in possibly one fo the quickest settlements you may have experienced.

Cheryl Bigini

After much thought we’ve decided that we’re better off selling the flat as we wouldnt be able to keep it and buy another place so rather than keep putting money into something we’re going to sell in 12 months, best to do it now and add to the equity – should be between $170 – 200k – and then buy a place when we get back home.

Bridie Read

My apologies for not getting back to you earlier this week as promised. Danijela and I went through the life insurance documents and we realised that we need to have a proper chat with either yourself or Lyndal again regarding this matter.

Serg and Daniella

I really sorry I haven’t written sooner but Ive been flat out working and renovating I haven’t had time to scratch myself.I just wanted to say I really appreciate everything lyndal, anna and yourself did in regards to my loan and my finance protection.

Michael Richards

Good to talk to you yesterday and thanks for your help with the new House. Tarryn, Lyndal and yourself have been a pleasure to deal with. Can you please fire through the breakdown of weekly cost for each of the four areas you outline below and which institution they would be with. As per usual I’d like to do some checks prior to committing.

Neil Masters

Dane and I got home from work yesterday to find a little hamper from you, that was a lovely surprise – thank you so much! Thank you to your team for finding us a great home loan and also sorting out our insurance. Your team has been excellent and we very much appreciate everything you’ve helped us with, particularly considering this was our first home so we really had no idea what the hell we were doing!!!

Rhianna Murray

I just wanted to thank you very much for all your help…I picked up the keys this afternoon, very happy I have my own home!

Christine Smits

Thanks for all you help with this, Anna – we’re really pleased!

Elisabeth Crawford

I spoke to Tony Bice ( mortgage consultant) about getting a mortgage for my new home as I was having trouble securing a loan due to my break up of my marriage. I was referred to CLS Investment Services by a friend. It was the best phone call I have ever made.

Suzanne Allen

Forgot to say thank you for the gift that you sent us. the timing was spot on as we had just moved in physically on the day We seemed to have fit the essentials into to our finances so thankfully we won’t need to think about a further loan.

Simon Airey

Cathryn and I would like to pass on our sincere thanks for all of your help during the process of purchasing our first home. From the start of our dealings, the first phone call that I received from Tony, I felt comfortable in dealing with you as the manner you spoke to me was very to the point and gave me a feeling of comfort that you knew what you were talking about and were giving me the facts and options as they were. We were able to chat about things comfortably and I felt as if we were simply working through things a couple of mates would discuss rather than a business / client type back and forward, and I liked that.

Leslie Elms

I would like to Thank you and your staff very much over the last few months. The ladies have been pretty good dealing with the Commonwealth Bank and getting back to me, as it has been very frustrating at times and they have calmed me down.

Stella Miliatis

Thanks Tony, I appreciate all your help. J You have been fantastic, not sure what we would do without your help & advice.
