Was referred to Chris from friends. Chris was very professional, prompt and knowledgeable and still maintained financial guidelines and procedures. Chris eased the stress of buying a new home. Chris kept continual contact throughout the process too. Unlike the real estate. I never had to all Chris anything, he always answered any thought I had before they even became a question.
I have recommended Chris to others already, on several occasions and will continue too.
Chris was extremely helpful and always prompt in getting things done. After previously being told no by another mortgage broker who didn't take the time to discuss our actual options, Chris asked lots of questions and discussed with us the best way to do things to achieve our goals. It was fantastic to see his energy and enthusiasm. We highly recommend Chris and the Smartline team.

Chris Ienello made the process seem effortless even under the pump to make the dead line..

The effort and support that Chris gives is second to none. Wouldn't go through the process of getting a loan without his help. Would recommend Chris to anyone.

I would highly recommend his services.
We have used Chris a number of times for previous home loans and he has always been professional and efficient and gets the best deal for his clients.
This is the second time we have used Chris Ianello and would recommend him to anybody needing help with a new loan or a better deal.

We would like to add that he knows his business and very professional in all that he does.
Chris did a great job, meeting me where I was at and getting through the process easily!
Chris is a great guy, been dealing with him and Smartline for many years now and refer our friends and family to him.
Excellent service, will use Chris again
Chris is a pleasure to do business with. Friendly and Professional. Always feels like he has my best interest at heart.
Chris Iannello worked TIRELESSLY to assist us with establishing a loan with the Comm bank. My own personal circumstances made Chris' job that much harder. This deal was approximately seven months in the making, but he fought for us, got it through and saved us hundreds of dollars per month on loan repayments by getting us a MUCH better rate. Chris was amazing to deal with and kept us up to date every step of the way. Chris' persistence and caring for his clients is what makes him a stand out broker. I have a career in real estate, have already referred two people to Chris and will continue to do so.
David Willis
Chris was awesome to work with and broke everything down to make it seem simple and easy to understand. He was also willing to answer any question regardless what it was about to help me make the best decision. Will strongly recommend him to any of my friends looking to finace a property.
Chris went above and beyond to help us find and secure the right loan to suit our needs. He was honest and helpful and kept us in the loop with everything that was going on. Chris explained anything we didn\'t understand and made the application process seamless and stress free. I would definitely use Chris again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an adviser.
Chris provided me with exemplary service in the arrangement of my loan. He was able to secure an interest rate & package that exceeded that offered by the bank\'s private / premier branch. Chris ensured that the loan application process was straightforward & his communication with me was excellent. I would unreservedly recommend Chris for anyone in the SW of WA seeking mortgage / finance advice / products.
Thanks Chris.

We highly recommend Chris. He was always available and answered any question we had. He saved us quite a lot of money on refinancing our mortgage.
The experience of buying our new home could not have been mad easier. We were well informed throughout the process and were presented with several scenario\'s before we made a decision.
Thanks Chris
Nothing is ever a drama with Chris he just sorts things out
We have used Chris Iannello at Smartline a number of times over the years as he is extremely knowledgeable, efficient and offers great service. We have had great tailored results to suit our particular circumstances, not just a one size fits all approach.
Chris took the time and personal interest in our lives to find out what can work best financially for our family. It is important for us to trust our financial adviser with advice regarding significant financial decisions, and Chris\'s professionalism enabled us to do so.
I have used Chris\'s services on two seperate occassions in the past & was very happy with his service, which is why I once again went to Chris to re-finance. Chris is easy going, is always contactable & does a great job in explaining & helping you through the process. I would highly recomend Chris to anyone who is either taking on a mortgage for the first time or is re-financing their existing loan/loans.
Most helpful and professional experience we have had.
Truly great experience in such a stressful time.
Very good service and very efficient , awesome communication and great feedback about how the loan is progressing and great follow up.
Chris was very knowledgeable and professional in his approach to our financial dealings. He held our best interests at the forefront of all conversations and consequently we have recommended seeing him to our friends who might be looking for some other financial options.

Chris is very responsive to requests, full of information, very friendly and a great advisor!

We found Chris professional and trustworthy at all times. He was able to answer all our questions about the loan process simply during our meetings and he was prompt at returning calls/messages. We would highly recommend him to our family and friends and would value his professional opinion in all our future financial decisions.
Chris was as always there to help with good advice on the loan, and on the way to secure the loan, to what properties, with the best savings. This is the 4th time we have used Chris, and would recommend him to anybody.

I am very happy with the service I received. The whole process was quick and easy and I would recommend using Smartline to everyone
Goes above and beyond what you would expect from most companies and kept me informed throughout the whole process. Have recommended before and will recommend again.
Chris was fantastic. Contact was easy, he made sure everything was clear & understandable and was very efficient. I was comfortable knowing that he had my best interest in mind.
Chris has been great in helping us establish our first home. We have already recommended him to other friends of ours and he has also helped them buy their first home.
We can't praise Chris enough, he provided exceptional service and we wouldnt hesitate to recommend him to others.
Chris is a realistic, honest adviser. He is genuinely in tune with our situation and his advice is easy to understand. He works for us which is why we re used his services 4 times in 6 years. Our son was assisted by him as were our friends - whom we recommended to use Chris. Gail Hatch
Chris went out of his way to assist me which is a credit to his service ethic.
We found Chris to be punctual and really helpfully with all the things we requested. Thanks again
Chris Ianello was the consumate professional. He kept us informed of the goings on at all times and made sorting out our loan a breeze!! I would recommend him to anyone!!
I'm really glad I had Chris to help me through from the start. It shows that he really knows what my options are and explained them to me in detail so that I was prepared as I started the process of buying my first home. Chris was invaluable to me and he still remains approachable for further advice even after settlement.
Chris is an asset to Smartline. The help and guidance he provided were top notch and he clearly knows the market and available products inside out. He was able to explain clearly, concisely and most importantly for me, simply, the relative features and benefits of all the different products available. This helped us make an informed decision and get us the house we wanted.
It was a pleasure doing business with Chris he was very professional and helpful.
Chris is a credit to smartline he is professional, informative and approachable. We have completed 3 mortgages through Chris and he has exceeded our expectations every time. thanks laura
Chris Iannello was fantastic! I went through three different brokers before Chris, none of whome would give me the time of day, simply saying they couldn't do it. Chris on the other hand did everything he could, exploring every possible avenue finding us a home loan. If it wasn't for Chris I would still be stuck in the rental trap.
Thankyou for providing us with good old fashioned service Chris. You made the whole process very easy for us.
Chris Iannello offers a refreshingly friendly and personal, yet professional, service - he makes himself available to assist with any concerns that arise for us; he also takes it upon himself to keep an eye on our mortgage and advise us when a better option becomes available. We feel very confident having Chris as our adviser. Kerryann and Dave, BUNBURY.
Chris made the whole process extremely easy and understandable. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with and my partner and I could not sing his praises high enough. We have already referred him onto friends of ours.
Well what can i say we have been using Chris as our broker for at least 10 years. Thanks Steve and Deb Rye Bunbury W.A
chris was a true professional with all our dealings and went above and beyond his duties to help us
Always get good service and can rely on the fact that the worry is taken away thru the process from start to finish, I continue to stay with what I know to be the best!
Yes in regards to my recent re-finace , Chris Iannello’s advice and help was second to none ! The whole deal went down so smoothly and promptly. I was quite busy at work at the time ; but
He was always flexible and working with my limited time schedule ,
I will (and have been) telling friends and family about the excellent service and advise I received though-out !! Thanks again too Chris and all The Team at Smartline,
Regards,
Matthew Harkness
Chris was fantastic, he answered all my questions and gave me very good advice. He spoke in plain and simple terms so I could understand exactly what was going on with the whole process of getting a mortgage from start to finish. He contacts me regularly via smart line to check to see if I need any advice and lets me know about interest rate changes immediately, and how it will affect my mortgage payments.
Very glad I used Chris to help me with my loan. He was nothing but helpful and I would recommend him to anyone, taking into account that is how I was put onto him from a work collegue (word of mouth)
Chris was recommended to me from my father and we were both very happy with his services. I'll be sure to use him again in a few years with my next purchase. What i liked is that he was able to meet me when i wanted him to and made the whole process as painless as buying a house can be.
Chris was very helpful and friendly. He helped me with a house loan in 2005 which is why I chose him this time. He seems very honest with the client's interests at heart.
Chris was very professional and answered all the questions my partner and I had with ease. Loved the after hours appointments to our home with no fuss at all as I work difficult hours for this kind of thing. Thanks heaps Chris, will see you again shortly to add the house on as well.
excellent service we will always use chris...
I have used Chris several times in the past and have always been happy with the service he provides. I will go back next time for sure since I have never had any drama and the process has been smooth and easy flowing. I have recomended Chris to other people I know which I know that 2 of my friends have also taken on his services
excellant service.
I liked the professionalism and great follow up displayed by Chris.
This is the second time i have asked Chris to help me with our loan. He was and still is a great asset to your company. Chris rang us about all info regarding our loan when ever anything came up. He was a great help and would always refer his to friends and family. Thanks again
Follow up perhaps three months later especiallly if rates have risen substantially so maybe reassess or if other loans have become available that help control the increasing rate hike.
Chris was/is fantastic. Very helpfull and knew the answers to all our questions. I've used him before and would use him again. In my view you should pay him more!
Appreciated greatly the optimistic / positive approach by the adviser who never put any obstacles in our way and was there purely to find the best options to suit our circumstances. Chris presented a number of options and provided full information. We hav
We are building and the bank had some delays with our documents but Chris was in contact with us and them on a daily basis and reasurred us continuously.
Chris is very good and has been in helping us over the last 5 years.
Smoother experience as they have all your information.
Better understanding of your financials to provide tailored advice. 
Faster response compared to being matched with a new broker.
