Mortgage Broker 

An award-winning banking and finance professional and experienced mortgage broker, Smita considers her biggest strength to be her ‘care factor’ and is passionate about helping her clients navigate their way to home ownership. 

‘My role is to listen to my customers, find out what’s important to them, and provide them with tailored solutions,’ she says. 

Part of Smita’s customer service mandate is to ensure all clients are fully educated about the borrowing process. ‘I focus on providing clear, thorough explanations of fees, the process, and what’s required of my clients, so they know exactly what’s happening and when as their application progresses,’ Smita says. ‘I consider myself to be part of their journey, and I’m here to hold their hand from start to finish, every step of the way.’

Prior to joining Mortgage Choice, Smita worked with one of Australia’s big-four banks for seven years, spending two years in a lending role. ‘During this time, I helped many clients with their home buying journey, reviewing their existing home loans, and providing professional advice and support,’ she says.

A high performer who consistently overachieved on KPI’s throughout her banking career, Smita has successfully completed the Home Buying Academy course and RG146 training. Her personable, caring and friendly nature, combined with her natural flair for numbers, has also attracted professional recognition, and in 2019, she received the bank’s prestigious ‘Best of the Best’ award.

Smita works with clients across the Adelaide metro region, and can assist with home loans, investment home loans, car loans or asset finance.
