We worked with Neal to refinance our mortgage, and as first-timers switching banks, we really appreciated how straightforward he made the whole process. Not having to deal with multiple banks ourselves was a huge relief, and Neal clearly explained our options and next steps. Thanks very much for your help :)Posted on Karin KoekemoerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Supported me through the journey of buying our first home. Being very supportive, when things got a bit hairy. Truly appreciated the guidance received during this very daunting yet exciting journey. I felt supported and was assisted through the tough bits, right through to settlement. Jacques our broker explained and sent information as required to assist in understanding and navigating the process with kindness and understanding, celebrating alongside us when we got there in the end.
