Dealing with Brad was excellent; he has provided great advice, he is a clear communicator, and has saved us money. We are already working on another refinance with Brad. Cheers Brad/Squirrel!

My partner and I were looking to purchase our first home, we had no idea what we were doing and the amount of information we were accessing seemed very overwhelming. We made some enquiries about brokers, made an website and were put in touch with Basil. He simplified the process right down for us, was available every step of the way and after a number of false starts, we moved into our new home yesterday. Couldn't recommend these guys more. Especially Basil, who I am now referring to anyone who I know is looking to start their home ownership journey.
