Real Client Outcomes

First Home Buyers

A couple planning to buy land and build came close to missing out on the First Home Buyer scheme twice, first an income cap, then rising land prices pushing them over the threshold. We tracked the changes and arranged a second valuation with another lender, keeping their place in the scheme and saving them around $15,000.

Moving Back Home

A young podiatrist needed to sell her home in Tasmania and buy in NSW, coordinating almost entirely by email while worried about running short on cash after the move. We timed her pre-approval to line up with the sale, and she settled both properties two weeks apart with $15,000 left over.

Buying Before Selling

A family had found their next home but couldn’t buy it without selling their current one first, and didn’t want to risk missing out while they waited. We arranged a bridging loan so they could move in straight away, settling the sale on their old home just 10 days later.
