Joanne has been amazing in helping me to secure the home loan from start to finish. Always available to answer questions and no questions are silly. Jo was with me every step of the way and always keeping me in the loop on the overall progress. Jo listens to my concerns and took time to explain everything with patience. Couldn't have done it without Jo's help and guidance.
Also Kristin was amazing and continuous to provide me update on the bank loan approval progress.

Highly recommend Jo and the Mortgage Choice team After being completely let down by one of the big banks, I called Jo and she came to our rescue.
Jo is super easy to talk to and get in contact with, understanding of your situation and finds the best option available for you and your circumstances. So grateful for the hard yards Jo and the team put in to get our finance over the line, even with a short deadline.

Jo was amazing Very knowledgable and quick to respond and helped me buy my first home I ended up putting an offer down last minute without pre approval but thanks to Jo had finance approved way before the deadline, really took a lot of the stress away when buying a place

Highly recommend Jo and Kristin. Jo is an expert in the finance industry. She is professional and friendly and listened to our needs before generously offering her knowledge and suggestions.

Jo assisted us to restructure our finances, to find a bank with better terms and better accessibility. She was at all times cheerful, forgiving of my tardiness and highly effective at delivering her undertakings in very short time. I would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends or anybody needing a professional and personable mortgage broker.

Joanne was an absolute rockstar throughout my first home-buying journey
Her exceptional knowledge, reliability, and prompt communication made the entire mortgage process seamless and stress-free.
Her friendly yet professional demeanor put me at ease, answering all my questions and concerns with clarity and patience. She consistently went above and beyond to ensure I secured the best possible rate and terms.
I couldn't recommend Joanne highly enough If you're looking for a mortgage agent who truly has your best interests at heart, look no further.

Jo was extremely knowledgable, professional, courteous, and patient through the many ups and downs that purchasing a house brings. She provided continuous support with navigating the complexity of various home loans, always going above and beyond to provide help wherever and whenever possible to find the mortgage that best suited my needs. She was undoubtedly crucial in helping me secure my first home and I would recommend her to everyone.

THANK YOU JOANNE AND KRISTIN We just settled on our house yesterday and cannot thank Jo and Kristin enough. We had a complex situation as small business owners but Jo worked tirelessly to find the best loan and submit the mountain of paperwork to get our approval in seven days. Then Kristin took over to get us through to settlement. We felt supported the whole way, we great communication and having the one person to contact in each stage was so reassuring. This is our second loan through Jo and will be back knocking on Jo's door if we need any more loans.

I cant recommend Jo more highly to find the very best loan and to smoothly see the whole process through to settlement. Ours was more complex than an ordinary mortgage but Jo and Kristin showed the perfect blend of tenacity and proactive planning to ensure all securities and documents were in order to achieve settlement right on time. It was a great comfort to have such experienced and calm hands steering us through to a very happy outcome.

Jo Nugent was a legend helping me secure refinancing to buy my ex out of our family home so I could stay there with the 4 kids. Jo took all the stress out of the paperwork, footwork and having to deal with banks. She identified the right lender, submitted the application, and traced it through the assessment process to approval and settlement. Nothing was a problem - so professional and respectful to deal with.

I have no hesitation in highly recommending Jo and I would use her again in the future in a heartbeat.

Highly recommend Jo. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional. She helped throughout the entire process of buying our first home and was extremely quick with responding to our questions. We used Jo when we first entered the market whilst on maternity leave- she navigated the entire thing and made everything stress free.
We have come to Jo again with our refinance and couldnt be happier. We would and do recommend Jo to anyone.

My husband and I worked with Jo for over three years to secure our first home. Throughout this time, we placed countless unsuccessful offers and had to apply for pre-approval a number of times. Jo was so incredibly patient and supportive, providing us with a number of options and always dedicated to making sure they were the right options for us. She was fantastic at explaining things in clear, easy to understand language too - essential when it's your first home I look forward to working with Jo again, as we consider investment properties or our next family home.

Jo was amazing, goes well above and beyond just organising financing and really held our hands all the way through settlement. A lot of work and research into products that are taylored to our requirements. Will not go anywhere else for financing.

Update Went through a build refinance with Jo, again went above and beyond to make this as painless as possible.

Thanks Jo

As a first-home buyer, the mortgage process was extremely intimidating. I am so relieved to have engaged Joanne From the outset, Jo was so helpful, patient and human. No question was a silly question, and she always made herself available to help me. Jo is so genuinely compassionate and truly cares. I will recommend Jo and the team at MortgageChoice to anyone starting their property journey. Thank you so much

We're so thankful to have found Jo to help us with our home loan - we'll never deal directly with a bank again Jo has patiently run us through all of the options, including several mind numbing bridging scenarios, and all of our questions have been answered promptly and clearly. Thanks Jo

It was an absolute pleasure working with Joanne. Her expert guidance and patience were instrumental in smoothly navigating the process of choosing the perfect lender. Joanne expertly handled every step, from initial application to tracking progress, all the way to final approval and settlement.

I encourage anyone seeking a seamless lending experience to make Joanne their first choice.

This was our 2nd time utilising Joanne's expertise. Both Joanne and her team were nothing short of amazing.

Joanne was so professional yet so easy to talk to, she made the entire process seamless She guided us through the initial stage of what the approval process would entail, she tirelessly answered our questions around our lending options and then stuck by us every step of the way Joanne exceeded our expectations in every way and we couldnt recommend her more highly

Joanne is without a doubt the best mortgage broker I have ever worked with and we have bought and sold a number of times. She is approachable, friendly and responsive - all things that are absolutely essential when going through the stressful home buying process.

I am a single parent, with several dependent children, and I was expecting my borrowing capacity to be fairly limited. Due to Joanne's relationships with the lenders, I was able to get a large loan - enough to purchase a home in a great area, with enough space and bedrooms for all my kids to have their own rooms, and close to family support. The approved loan was higher than all the online calculators predicted - without her work I wouldn't have been able to buy our dream place. And our interest rate is currently sitting around the 5 mark as of April 2023 - a very good rate for this time

The application process was unbelievably quick and easy. I contacted Joanne on Monday to ask for an assessment of my borrowing capacity - she got back to me with an approximate amount based on the info given by Tuesday morning, and I put an offer in on my place by Tuesday afternoon. The offer was accepted Wednesday, I got all the paperwork back to Joanne by Thursday....and I had an unconditional mortgage approved from my preferred lender before I left work on Friday - 24 hours from paperwork to mortgage has got to be some kind of record

I even asked Joanne to go back to the bank to ask if I could retain some of my savings thereby increasing the mortgage slightly and it was approved by the Tuesday

This is my second time working with Joanne as she helped my ex-husband and I with a loan on our previous home - also not an easy process as he was self-employed - and it was likewise an excellent result for us.

I am now 6 months in my new home, and I could not be more thankful that I had Joanne on my side throughout the process.

Thank you, Joanne

From the very first meeting, we knew we were in good hands. Jo was able to secure us the best rate possible for our circumstances. The renewal of our investment property mortgage was less stressful with Jo in control dealing with the lender. Jo and Kristin always kept us up-to-date during the process. Thank you Jo & Kristin. Highly recommended. Will be in touch when our fixed rate expires :)

I could not recommend Jo enough. She has made the process of buying our first home a seamless journey despite tight deadlines and hiccups with our financing. She made an effort to include us in the process when needed and updated my partner and me in a timely manner.

From our first meeting to putting in an offer for our house a mere few days later, Jo was incredibly helpful with walking my partner and myself through the process of buying a house as first home buyers. She worked tirelessly after hours and was prompt in responding to our concerns.

Jo and Kristin made the loan process run very smoothly and their regular updates throughout the process made sure that we were never too stressed. We are stoked with our new home and truly have both Jo and Kristin to thank!

I would recommend Jo and Kristin to anyone considering buying a home.

Jo was incredibly helpful to both my partner and I as we purchased our first home. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jo to anyone considering buying a house - her availability and willingness to answer questions made our purchase much less stressful!

Specifically, Jo was able to provide us with a clear indication of which lenders would provide us with an LMI waiver. She was then able to provide us with a clear upper limit for our borrowing capacity which enabled us to have confidence when submitting offers - this limit proved accurate and we had a very smooth process of securing finance with Jo’s assistance. Even whilst finance was in the process of being approved both Jo and Kristin (mortgage choice loan processing manager) actively communicated with the bank to ensure we met our contractual obligations.

Overall, we could not be happier with the work Jo has done - she clearly takes great pride in both the quality and thoroughness of her work and as a prospective (and eventual) buyer this was incredibly reassuring as we navigated an unfamiliar process.

Jo is friendly, personable and professional. She ensured that I had a good understanding of my options throughout the whole process, and was patient with my numerous questions. There were a couple of speed bumps (well out of her control!), but I was well supported by Jo and her team to quickly come up with a plan B.
I couldn't recommend her more, and intend to engage her when the need arises in the future.

Review #2 (Oct-22)
I knew I was going to be in safe hands because this was my second time using Jo for my mortgage!! She once again exceeded my expectations, always going above and beyond. The whole process couldn’t have run any smoother and her professionalism, expertise and knowledge of the industry is exceptional.

Kristin is also excellent at managing the processing of the loan. She kept me informed throughout the whole process, providing timely updates and clear communication the entire time.

Jo and Kristin are honestly amazing. Their commitment to their clients and communication is unrivalled and they always had the time to take my calls when I had questions around the process (even on settlement day).

I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome and would give them a 10 star review if I could! I would definitely use them again, without hesitation!!

Review #1 (Mar-21)
I could not speak more highly of Jo. She was excellent to deal with and always available keeping me updated throughout the entire process. From the beginning, Jo was more than happy to calculate different lending scenarios for me, whilst I was still figuring out where I wanted to buy. Her knowledge of the lending process and products available made navigating my first purchase so simple and easy to understand. With Jo there was always a way around every single hurdle and she was highly efficient and meticulous throughout.

She provided very professional and friendly advice and went the extra mile to ensure the process ran very smoothly. When timeframes became very tight and a matter of urgency, she was so calm and reassuring and kept me in the loop every step of the way, ensuring no deadlines were missed. Kristin on the loan processing side of things was just as amazing and easy to deal with as well!

I could not have purchased my first home without Jo. For me availability and communication were vital and Jo was always ready to take phone calls, answer emails and even texts promptly. She was honest, upfront and most of all trustworthy in her opinions and understanding of the process. I could not be happier with the service, product and rate that Jo was able to secure for me. I cannot thank Jo enough for her help and ensuring that my purchase settled without any issues!!

I cannot recommend Joanne from Mortgage Choice enough. Joanne met with us at our home after hours and listened to our dreams and ideas, she was able to identify what we needed currently and in the future.
She was able to provide us with an extensive list of lenders and identified the ones best suited to our situation. She had great knowledge in the loans available and what they offer and provided us with a report that included all the information. If you are looking for an expert to provide you home loan information than Joanne is the lady to call.

Joanne recently helped us navigate the minefield that is securing finance for a second property, refinancing and changing our lender. Joanne took us through the process, made recommendations regarding new lenders and lending options – basically, Joanne managed the entire process, kept us on track and, smoothed out all (and there were plenty) of the speed bumps and essentially made an over-complex process simple. Use her. It will save you money and your sanity. She's also a really nice person to work with. Steve & Myriam

I don't have enough words to express how grateful I am to Joanne, Kristin and the team. I knew nothing about buying a home before I came to them but I was met with the upmost understanding and professionalism which made me feel like no question I had was too ridiculous. My calls and emails were answered almost immediately which made me feel at ease, even down the last minute and post settlement. I'd never use anyone else.

Joanne was absolutely brilliant in navigating what was an extremely frustrating 15 month-long land and house sale due to lengthy delays by the developers. She was patient, professional, and kept us up to date throughout the entire process. We not only felt valued as clients but also as individuals. I would recommend Joanne 100 times over without hesitation.

After a disappointing experience with my current lender, I decided to employ the services of a Mortgage Broker to refinance. Jo took the time to understand my circumstances and provided an excellent service throughout the entire process.

Jo was our mortgage broker who worked with us over the last couple of months to purchase our first property and I wish we could give more than 5 stars because she is so amazing! We feel so lucky to have had Jo on our team as newbies to the whole house buying process. From our first meeting we knew we were in such good hands throughout the pre-approval, formal approval and settlement stages. We were so impressed with her professionalism, expertise and willingness to go above and beyond the expected level of customer service - for example when our offer was accepted for the place that we would go on to eventually buy, our borrowing situation had changed since our initial pre-approval and we were stressed that this would impact obtaining formal approval from the lender. Jo answered all our questions and eased our concerns all the while this was after COB on a Friday and then she continued to work on our updated application over the weekend so that everything was ready to go by the Monday. We are so happy with our competitive interest rate which was thoroughly researched by Jo based on her exact understanding of what we were looking for.
We would also like to extend a massive thank you to Kristin McLeish (Loan Processing Manager) who was paramount in receiving formal approval and then ultimately the settlement. Kristin was super responsive to all of our queries and regularly provided updates and check-ins which was so appreciated especially as our chosen lender had been notoriously slow and unresponsive. Kristin put the pressure on them to ensure our timelines for the finance condition and settlement were met, I don't know what we would've done without her (we'd probably still be waiting for settlement!).
We cannot thank you both enough for getting us into our first home!

Jo has been an amazing support to us during our first home purchase. It made the journey less stressful, knowing someone was looking out for you When we saw a potential property, Jo was always ready to crunch out the scenarios for us. All our questions were answered so promptly and even on weekends too No question was a silly question because she was so understanding. When it came to the finance approval, she really made it work for us and we are so thankful we made it through We are grateful for her expertise and knowledge with different lenders so we could get a loan with the best rate

We can not speak highly enough of Mortgage Choice. Jo was fantastic to work with, consistently provided updates and completed the job in a timely and efficient manner. We were first time buyers and had thousands of questions. Jo was incredibly knowledgeable and went out of her way to help and keep our minds at ease
Special shout out to Kristin who is also incredible at what she does. Both Jo and Kristin would send email updates on Sunday's which shows their commitment to customer service dedication to getting the job done. Here's to our first property together and certainly not the last. Thanks ladies.

It is hard to write just a few words that express how amazing Joanne’s service was. It was very much an individualised and supportive service with Joanne taking the time to listen to my specific circumstances and wishes and then championing my application every step of the way. Joanne has excellent knowledge of the financial institutions she works with and knows which ones will support specific scenarios. She was 110% confident that my application would get through even when I was losing hope that the banks would ever stop asking for more documents! She and her colleague Kristin worked tirelessly, making sure that everything was progressing, even late into the evening when the bank had not finalised settlement with 1 day to go! Would highly recommend.

Jo and Kristin are an incredible team who were able to take all of the stress and anxiety out of the home buying process for us.
Being first home buyers, we would have been completely lost if it wasn't for Jo holding our hands through the entire process. From our first meeting, it was clear that Jo wanted to understand what we needed and what our goals were, and then to help us to achieve them. We really felt like Jo made it all about us, which was so much appreciated.
Jo was very patient in working through and explaining all of our different options, and how they would work long term, and assist us in making the final decision that worked best for us. There was no such thing as too many questions or a question that was too simple and Jo was able to explain everything in a straight forward manner that made sense to us, and was always able to provide clarity where needed.
By the time settlement was nearing, I was sure Jo would be sick of hearing from me, but every time I rang, texted or emailed, the response was always incredibly positive. Settlement week was stressful, but Jo was able to reassure us and put our minds at ease all the while working some magic in the background to make sure we were able to settle and secure our first home.
Thanks Jo

We met with Joanne at the start of our journey to find our home. She came to us at a time that was convenient for us which was hard to find as my partner and I have full time jobs and a small family but she made it work for us. We were so unsure about so many things but Joanne answered all our questions with ease and offered to help as much or as little as we'd like. If we saw a house we wanted to consider, Joanne would find extra information to help us make a choice. At every step along the way, Joanne and her team were there to make sure we had everything organised and they managed the loan application for us. I think this would have been too difficult to do without her and with her help it all seemed so easy.

Joanne provided professional first-class service helping to arrange our mortgage from understanding our needs, providing comprehensive options and then doing the work to secure all approvals. Supported by Kristin at Mortgage Choice, both Joanne Kristin were great at keeping us updated on the whole property purchase through to settlement and made the whole overall experience a lot less daunting
Also, as a really nice gesture and totally not expected Joanne gave us a beautiful house warming gift which really capped off a great experience. We were truly blown away Thank you so much Joanne.
Highly recommend having a chat with Joanne if you are in the market for a mortgage she is the best

Jo was stellar in guiding and assisting us navigate through the process of applying for a home loan and buying a house.

We were able to get a home loan with a good rate and buy a house that we really wanted through Jo's assistance. We highly recommend Jo and Mortgage Choice

This is the second time I've used Joanne, this time for refinancing. Again, Joanne exceeded expectations. She found the best product for my needs and managed to secure a rate ahead of a tight deadline which I was thrilled about.
Joanne always makes herself available and is very knowledgeable about products. I will continue to use Joanne in the future and couldn't recommend her more highly.
Thank you very much

I could not speak more highly of Jo. She was excellent to deal with and always available keeping me updated throughout the entire process. From the beginning, Jo was more than happy to calculate different lending scenarios for me, whilst I was still figuring out where I wanted to buy. Her knowledge of the lending process and products available made navigating my first purchase so simple and easy to understand. With Jo there was always a way around every single hurdle and she was highly efficient and meticulous throughout. She provided very professional and friendly advice and went the extra mile to ensure the process ran very smoothly. When timeframes became very tight and a matter of urgency, she was so calm and reassuring and kept me in the loop every step of the way, ensuring no deadlines were missed. Kristin on the loan processing side of things was just as amazing and easy to deal with as well! I could not have purchased my first home without Jo. For me availability and communication were vital and Jo was always ready to take phone calls, answer emails and even texts promptly. She was honest, upfront and most of all trustworthy in her opinions and understanding of the process. I could not be happier with the service, product and rate that Jo was able to secure for me. I cannot thank Jo enough for her help and ensuring that my purchase settled without any issues!!

Jo was a lifesaver, literally a life saver. As a new business owner it’s close to impossible to secure personal finance but Jo didn’t stop until she found a suitable leader for me. Every email was responded to within minutes and she was so empathetic and compassionate about my circumstance. I couldn’t recommended Jo highly enough. Thank you Jo.

Jo gets her 5 star rating for a reason. We had no idea what we were doing coming in and Jo made the whole experience of securing a loan and finding a property, so easy and painless. Jo found us the right lender, with the best rates and answered every question we asked, without hesitation. Jo is super-friendly and very professional and her obvious experience in the market shows with her results. I would not hesitate to recommend Jo to anyone looking to secure a home loan.

We were first home buyers with very limited understanding of how bank loans, real estate and settlement work. Jo was stellar in guiding and assisting us navigate through the process of applying for a home loan and buying a house. She communicated and worked with us to meet critical timeframes for the application and updated us regularly for the status of approval. We were able to get a home loan with a good rate and buy a house that we really wanted through Jo's assistance. We highly recommend Jo and Mortgage Choice!

Joanne made the process of buying our first home seamless. We had no idea what we were doing but Joanne provided us with all the information we needed and guided us the entire way. Joanne is quick with communication and showed a lot of patience when we asked her a million questions. Without Joanne I doubt we would be the proud new owners of our home. We can't thank you enough. Absolute legend!

Joanne made the process of buying our first home so easy! She explained every detail to us, and being first time buyers, no question that we had was too stupid! Joanne was very quick to respond over email and was always a phone call away. As well as being an amazing broker she is also a very kind, warm person. Very much recommend Joanne to anyone to make the process of buying a home exciting and easy instead of stressful!

Jo has been a such an amazing mortgage broker. We were "shopping around" for a new broker and found so many to be unhelpful and unprofessional. Jo was prompt, helpful, encouraging and supportive through the entire process, even when we had to change our application to a new lender. She kept us in the loop at all times and I would highly recommend her services. Thanks so much, Jo!

Jo is by far the best broker that I have ever worked with. She achieved the absolute best outcome for my wife and I, far and beyond what we could have done on our own. Jo was incredibly professional, very responsive and took a real interest in helping us refinance our existing loans and with the purchase of a new home for us to live in. I highly recommend Jo as a broker.

Jo is an absolute super star broker The process of refinancing our mortgage through Jo was seamless from start to finish. Jo stepped us through each requirement with clear and easy to follow instructions which was invaluable for keeping our stress levels in check This was the complete opposite to our experience a few years ago when we tried to refinance with a major trading bank on our own - we wish we had made contact with Jo earlier

Jo was an absolute delight to work with - despite how painful we were as customers From house contracts falling over, to dealing with banks not wanting to work with business owners, to the whole thing taking over 12 months to make happen, Jo was committed to seeing it through to the end with us. We'll 100 be using Jo for all future purchases and re-finances, and couldn't recommend her more highly.

It was a pleasure working with Joanne. From our very first meeting, she explained the process and kept me informed of the progress of my application. I felt that I had all the necessary tools to make the right decision and I’m happy with the outcome that Joanne helped me to secure. I feel that Joanne went above and beyond for me through the process. Some communication breakdown with the conveyancers caused some stress throughout the settlement period but Joanne was happy to discuss the steps and what was required of me to keep the contract moving. She also facilitated conversations with the banks in an efficient manner and ensured that my very tight finance turnaround was met. I am grateful to the help of Joanne through the process and I would not only use her again, I would be happy to recommend her

I originally went to Aussie and was told to wait 6 months given the state of my finances. I immediately went to Mortgage Choice and thanks to Jo, I had my pre-approval within a month, and am now happily living in my own home. I couldn't recommend Jo enough, she made the entire process as painless as possible. Always responding quickly, offering to meet in person, and laying out all options clearly explaining the differences between them. She puts a lot of effort into her work and it shows.
Thanks a lot Jo, couldn't have done it without ya.
