  • We visited Advanced Mortgage Solutions as first time buyers with enquiries about whether we were even able to purchase a property. Greg was prompt at replying to our initial message and organised a meeting to discuss our situation. Greg was incredibly thorough; he explained the house buying process clearly and methodically, never rushing or assuming we knew certain aspects of the process. He really took his time with us and was always happy to answer questions. We would 100% recommend advance mortgage solutions to others. Thanks again Greg!

  • Had a fantastic experience with Scott from Advanced Mortgage Solutions. He made the process of getting a home loan super easy and as stress-free as possible. He also explained how to structure mortgage repayments in such a way as to make the process understandable to even the most financially illiterate such as myself.
