What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

The home loan process at this South Melbourne practice is steered by brokers Michael Collins and Hassan Talukder, whose personal involvement customers describe in detail. Michael comes across as friendly, patient and composed when complications arise, explaining each stage clearly and remaining responsive to questions, which gave first-time buyers the confidence to bid at auction. Hassan draws comparable praise for his expertise and professionalism across repeat engagements and tight settlement deadlines, including support provided to a client while overseas.

Several accounts note the patience shown when a house sale fell through or when conveyancing hit a last-minute panic, with the journey described as straightforward and well managed. Prompt communication before and after settlement, thorough follow-up and a manner that never felt pushy are noted time and again. The work centres on home loan applications and guiding buyers through owner-occupied purchases, assisting with lenders and speeding up responses when progress stalled. Clients credit the brokers with securing finance inside short timeframes, bringing projects to fruition and handling a purchase completed just before Christmas.

Excellent service from start to finish. Worked with Michael C and I cannot recommend highly enough. We started looking for a home loan while overseas, which complicated things, then we had a house sale fall through but Michael was patient and helpful the whole time. He was thorough and thoughtful in his prompt responses and never pushy. Really, only great things to say. Thank you!

I can’t recommend Michael highly enough! Purchasing my first home felt like a daunting process at first, but Michael made everything so much easier from start to finish. He was professional, approachable, incredibly knowledgeable, and always happy to answer my questions. He took the time to explain every step of the process, presented my options clearly, and genuinely worked to find the best loan for my circumstances. I always felt informed, supported, and confident that he had my best interests at heart. Michael’s communication was outstanding, and nothing was ever too much trouble. He made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

We couldn't have asked for a better broker than Michael. He is truly exceptional at what he does. From the very beginning, he answered every question we had promptly and took the time to explain everything clearly, giving us the confidence to purchase our home at auction. He made the entire process feel easy and straightforward. We are so thankful we found you, and we can't thank you enough for helping us achieve our dream. Ten stars!

Michael Collins was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our home loan journey. He is incredibly friendly and joyful, which made the whole process much less stressful. He genuinely cared about our needs, took the time to understand our situation, and made everything feel easy and straightforward. Michael was also very responsive and always available to answer our questions or provide updates. We really appreciated his support and guidance and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a mortgage broker.

Cannot recommend Michael higher. He has been so lovely, from the first meeting, all the way to settlement. He has been the mvp throughout the whole conveyancing experience. He handled our last minute panic with calm and efficiency.

Have had the pleasure of working with Hassan Talukder to help my family through purchasing our forever home, I can't speak highly enough of his response times, knowledge and work ethic, even taking the time to work for us when out of the country due to the time sensitive nature of our loan process. Would definitely recommend Hassan.
