TradeMe Review
“Due to redundancy we found ourselves in a dire financial situation. Our own bank was less than helpful. The other banks we called not much better. In desperation we called Jeff. It took a little while but now we are in a better financial than we were before the redundancy – despite having 3/4 of the income. Jeff acted in a professional, positive and friendly manner through out. I would have no hesitation recommending Jeff to anyone. Thanks Jeff.”

TradeMe Review
“No deposit. Reasonable income. One debt to pay for a few more years. Declined left, right & centre by banks, brokers & anyone else who would listen – except Jeff!! Only 5 days after faxing my details (including the weekend) Jeff has just phoned me to say I have a mortgage – from a bank that had previously declined me! After posting this review on the net, my next stop is the real estate sites. I’M GOING HOUSE SHOPPING! Thank you hardly seems adequate, but thank you again Jeff.”

“What an absolutely first class person to deal with… Jeff has been fantastic, constant communication, solved every problem we came up against and there were a few! as a result of Jeff’s amazing can do attitude, stickability and hard work, we now will be moving into our very first house in 3 weeks time. In our opinion don’t go to the banks go straight to Jeff, when the banks said no Jeff found a way. Words can’t express how grateful we are thanks so much Jeff.”

“Really appreciated Jeff Royles’ advice which has always been timely and invaluable for all my refinancing and mortgage advice. He has prompt service and a cheerful “can do” attitude – nothing is too much trouble for him, accessible (at all hours!) and he’s approachable at all times too! A first class mortgage broker of his calibre is hard to find, Jeff is indeed a star! I would not hesitate to recommend him.”

New Zealand Mortgage Broker

A lot of people ask
“so how does a Mortgage Broker get mortgages for people who can’t get them themselves?”
or
“why use a Mortgage Broker when I can do it myself?”
The answers are simple.

For those who for whatever reason cannot get a mortgage due to bad credit or no proof of income (self employed especially), Mortgage Brokers have access to Mortgage products not available directly to the borrower. These are sometimes called Low Doc or Designer Mortgages and are often at Bank rates or a little over.

For bad credit and no proof of income, mortgages can still be arranged, it’s just a bit more expensive and the deposit or equity required might be higher. In these cases we always advise along the lines of a ‘means to an end’ and our goal is to get every customer to a Bank Mortgage as quickly as possible.

For those who can get a NZ home loan/mortgage from any Bank, that in itself can be a challenge! Who has the best rate? Who is giving away the most in freebies and more importantly, who has the best service?
