What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

First-time buyers and applicants with complicated lending situations are the customers whose experiences dominate the feedback for this Newcastle finance brokerage. The name that recurs throughout is John Fulford, credited with guiding purchasers through the entire process from initial questions to settlement. Several customers describe circumstances that other lenders had declined, including casually employed applicants and buyers relying on family tax benefit, with John finding a bank willing to consider their situation.

A point that comes up often is his responsiveness: calls answered outside standard business hours, appointments arranged at a client's residence, and applications written within days when time was short. Reviewers frequently point to his patience in explaining each step, particularly for people new to the market who felt supported rather than overwhelmed, and his willingness to field every question no matter how small.

The research behind each recommendation is described as thorough and tailored, with communication maintained across long, drawn-out applications and even while clients were overseas. Accounts highlight a smooth, low-stress experience through what many expected to be an anxious time, and the outcome most frequently celebrated is a first home purchase or an approval that had previously seemed out of reach, with John's expertise and calm manner credited for getting clients there.

John came recommended to us by a friend and we have no regrets that we used him- John was absolutely fabulous from the beginning of the loan process to the end. He was very knowledgeable, accomodating and easy to contact if we needed something. Thank you John, for making the finance side of our purchase so smooth!

I had a very limited amount of time, and John absolutely delivered. He answered my Friday evening call, came to my residence on Saturday, wrote the application by the end of the weekend, and did what numerous bank representatives had failed to do previously — he got my tricky application approved. The communication was unbelievable at every stage, even when I was overseas. John managed the entire process seamlessly and kept me informed at every step. He is highly knowledgeable about the lending process and could foresee potential hiccups before they even evolved, which saved a huge amount of stress and delays. I have never encountered service like this before. I highly recommend his services. I only wish I had found him a year earlier when my request for finance first began with banks who struggled to understand my challenging financial affairs.

I am casually employed, and even though I have no debts and a 20% deposit saved, the "Help to Buy Scheme" wouldn't consider me. Other brokers couldn't help. John found me a bank that not only gave me a home loan, but also took into account my family tax benefit, even though my child was 16. The home purchase was complicated, but John was amazing throughout the whole process. Getting this home loan has changed my life, as I am now a home owner and no longer renting. If you've been struggling to get a home loan, try John!

We honestly could not have asked for a better mortgage broker than John. From start to finish, he supported us through thick and thin every bump, crack, and stressful moment along the way and still delivered an outcome we’re incredibly proud of. I’ll be the first to admit I can be a difficult person at times, often rushed and wanting things done yesterday. Instead of being thrown off by that, John adapted instantly, took control of situations when needed, and guided us with confidence and clarity. That level of professionalism and patience is rare. We purchased our home back in July, and looking back, the entire process felt as smooth as it possibly could because of John. His communication was absolutely impeccable whether it was texts, emails, or phone calls, he was always available, always responsive, and always willing to explain things clearly no matter how many questions we had. John was ready and willing to go above and beyond at every stage, and it truly made all the difference. If you’re looking for a mortgage broker who genuinely cares, knows his stuff, and will fight for the best outcome for you, we couldn’t recommend John highly enough.
