What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Home Sweet Loans - Brisbane has built its standing on making property finance feel manageable for first-home buyers, refinancers and repeat purchasers in the local area. Tarek and Rachel are named time and again, with customers crediting their patience, warmth and readiness to field every query. Buyers describe initial home loans where plain explanations and consistent reassurance eased much of the worry attached to such a large commitment. Clear communication before and after each stage is a theme that surfaces frequently: calls, emails and progress updates are answered quickly, candidly and with evident care, leaving clients informed rather than waiting.

Returning borrowers mention refinancing and further purchases, and word of mouth has brought relatives and acquaintances through the door. The capacity to source a sharp deal, deal directly with lenders and oversee progress payments is linked to settlements that run without friction. Reviewers also appreciate the individual attention given to their circumstances before any loan structure is put forward. Tarek's informative newsletter is mentioned as a welcome extra, blending clarity with humour.

Tarek and Rachel have been absolutely phenomenal throughout the entire process, from the very beginning until the very end, looking after all the progress payments and liaising with the bank, so we haven’t had to worry about a thing! Getting a home loan from Home Sweet Loans was a breeze and they took all my fears and anxieties away, answered ALL my ongoing questions, emails, phone calls, etc with such kindness, professionalism and care. I recommend them to anyone, you will not be disappointed! To add, they still continue to check up on us and ensure everything is ok. What a brilliant, first class service! 10/10 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tarek and the team are professional, clear in their advice and proactive in their role in buying/ arranging the mortgage and worked well with the others. They have continued to help us post settlement, truly delivering on the relationship mentality rather than contractual. Be hard to argue that anyone else cold have done better.
