Arlyn Z

Hi Craig,
Thanks so much. All credits goes back to you as you helped me make all this happen.

I couldn’t thank you enough for the job excellently done.

I’m glad you will still be of assistance until my house is built and I will send you a photo of the land with me and sold caption in it asap.
Cheers

[Arlyn was a doctor from the Phillipines on a 457 Visa. She was on a contracting basis – that is, she got paid roughly 70% of what she billed. We assisted Arlyn with a 90% Mortgage with No Lenders Mortgage Insurance payable so she could buy a house and land package]

Aziz B

Many thanks for all your efforts Craig. To be honest mate we had lost hope of buying property, but the moment we started dealing with you we always got the right advice and finally the result.
 
Finally we can realise our dream.

Aziz is a NZ citizen living in Australia. His wife Hamidah just moved to Australia 3 months ago and is here on a NZ family visa subclass 461. Aziz and Hamidah originally approached 2 other brokers before jumping onto google and finding us.

We arranged a home loan to 95% capitalising the LMI despite the visa issue and short term employment of Hamidah. We are happy to advise Aziz and Hamidah will be moving into their new home end of October 2012

Harry and his wife were migrants on 457 visas. They owned property back in the UK but didn’t want to have to sell to be able to provide the traditional 20% deposit required. We arranged 90% lend to Harry and normal market interest rates whilst Harry was on a 457 visa. More information on 457 visa home loans here.

Ben O

Thanks so much. Great to receive the approval.

I know we’re not there yet but thanks again for all of your work. It has been nice and smooth from my perspective and couldn’t have done it without you!
I know I am not the easiest client (i.e. no deposit etc) so am sure working out all the different loans etc meant it wasn’t as smooth for you as it has been for me, but none of it has gone unappreciated.

Ben was purchasing with his partner on a defacto spouse visa. Ben owned existing property in his own name, including a serviced apartment. We leveraged up to 95% on the purchase property, 95% on refinance property and 80% on the serviced apartment to raise enough funds to see the purchase be approved.

Calvin and Izumi

Izumi and i were very great full from day one when speaking to Craig and the exceptional service that we received from him. He guided us through all the steps of buying our property. Without Craig’s help we won’t be where we are. We can’t thank him enough for what he has done for us. All i can say that we were impressed with every aspect of Craig’s service. I will gladly recommend Craig to anyone looking to buy a property.

_______________________________

Calvin and Izumi were looking to rent out their unit and upgrade to a home. Borrowing capacity was very tight as was deposit, but we sourced a 95% home loan, using equity in existing property, to purchase their new home.

There was also an issue along the way where one bank valued the property they were buying 20k below the contract of sale price. We quickly ordered a valuation with another lender upfront which came in at the purchase price.

We switched lenders and were still able to achieve the approval and meet settlement deadlines.

Kris and Ruth

I recently returned back to Australia with my British wife with the dream of living beside the beach but a little unsure of how to get finance after being away from Australia for so long, going into a new job and having a foreign born wife. After typing in some key words on google, MAP Mortgage Brokers came up and I decided to take a punt (albeit with trepidation) and contact them. This was the best move I could have made as after speaking to Craig for the first time, I was sold on his knowledge and expertise given our circumstances. Craig has gone over and above what you would expect from a mortgage broker and helped us out enormously. We now have our block of land beside the beach and we will be using Craig and MAP when we require finance for construction. I would without hesitation, recommend MAP for anybody searching for finance. Thank you Craig for your hard work.

Kris and Ruth just moved back from Australia with their young family and wanted to purchase a block of land to build their dream home on. Ruth was on a spouse visa 309 and as such and Kris had only just started a new job in a completely different industry to his previous employment.

Kris and Ruth had been to a local mortgage broker who had failed to get them approved.

MAP arrange a home loan for Kris and Ruth for $171,000 capitalise LMI on a 190k purchase of vacant land.

Kris and Ruth are now saving up a deposit so they can start building within 4 months time.
