Fantastic team. Kept me up to date with murmurings around interest rate hikes, which meant that we were able to lock a rate in ahead of two rate hikes.

I could not find any fault with the service that I received from Low Quotes.. My broker John Hourigan was exceptional.

I only have good words to say about Ms Bernadine Day. She has been extremely exceptional and professional all throughout my mortgage journey. There has been quite a lot of personal difficulties along the way, but she was there to help me and assist in all my needs.I would totally recommend her as mortgage broker. She was not only helpful, she was also very efficient. She is very passionate with what she does and delivers excellent results.I could not recommend her enough!!!

Jana Platau

13:56 19 Dec 22

Low Quotes helped me for two things: first regarding the Mortgage Protection Insurance as I got a much better and cheaper package compared to the one offered by my bank, secondly regarding my mortgage application. Bernadine Day my mortgage advisor at Low Quotes was helpful and made the process easier to secure my mortgage approval with a lower rate. She provided me with good advice throughout my application and called me directly when I got my AIP, then my letter of loan offer and finally when the mortgage was drawdown. I started my application later only after I found a property, so it took a bit longer than I anticipated but I am very happy with the outcome and had a good experience. Yes, I would recommend Low quotes.
