I can't recommend Jeff and Michelle highly enough if you're looking for a mortgage broker. From our initial consultation, Jeff took the time to listen to my goals and answer all of my questions, and presented multiple loan options tailored to my needs, helping me weigh the pros and cons of each so I could make an informed decision.

Throughout the entire process, Jeff Michelle were incredibly responsive and proactive. They kept me updated at every stage and ensured that all paperwork and approvals were handled efficiently, taking a huge weight off my shoulders. Even when a few unexpected issues arose, they tackled them immediately, providing reassurance and solutions that kept my mortgage on track.

Michelle helped my boyfriend and I understand what a mortgage is and how we would go about getting one. She broke everything down for us and was able to help us make sense of it all and how much wed need to be able to afford our own place
Would 100 times over recommend her ?

Michelle was excellent to work with. Made the entire process very simple and put the effort in to research specific benefits provided by my industry to help me get into the housing market. Just like I was referred by my family I would be very likely to refer her again to family friends in the future.

We purchased our first property through Jeff Fullick and were very satisfied with the process. From the first steps, Jeff was very thorough, informative and dedicated to educating us every step of the way. Jeff his team were very attentive to our queries and kept us informed until the very end.
We would highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking to purchase a property, particularly first home buyers for his attentive and 'willing-to-teach' nature.

Being a new migrant, I was unsure of how to proceed with the purchase of my first home. Jeffery and Michelle are very knowledge and kind, they guided my through the entire process in depth and it was a cake walk for me to zero-down on a property which will be my first home in Australia.

Strongly recommend the service of Jeff and Michelle and kudos to them for their acumen, patience, proactive communication and impeccable execution

Michelle, Jeff and Michaela were terrific throughout the whole process. From the first virtual meeting with Michelle Jeff I knew we were going to be looked after, but Jeff went above and beyond when we encountered difficulties with the bank. With both us being overseas and a short turn around required he worked around the clock to ensure a positive result with the bank.

Michelle is one of a kind. We honestly did not think we’d be where we are today - homeowners!! The process was so scary and foreign to us and we consider ourselves very lucky to have been able to work with Michelle. She provided so much knowledge, patience and understanding to try and meet exactly what our needs were. I can’t speak highly enough of Michelle. I just wish we had met her sooner!! From the bottom of our very grateful hearts - thank you Michelle. None of this would have been possible without you.

Before working with Michelle and her team I was working with another company. One week out from the settlement date the previous company, who had not been returning my calls, emailed me to say that they were no longer able to facilitate the mortgage.
Obviously distressed I reached out to Smartline for help, and Michelle came to the rescue. She was courteous and professional. Michelle took the time to explain the options on the table and kept me apprised of how my application was moving at a regular cadence. Living in New York I was concerned with how much overlap we would have. Michelle worked with me to organise appointments that fit within my schedule.
All in all the mortgage has been approved, thank you for all your help Michelle!

We have used Michelle Schaafsma on a number of occasions now, each time she has provided excellent customer service and has bent over backwards to meet our needs.

Michelle provided genuine options for me to consider and worked really well with the conveyance company and bank to help the property refinance settle on time. I also appreciate how Michelle takes the time to educate me on my loans and keeps me informed along the way. Thanks Michelle.

Michelle is thorough, honest, proactive and very helpful. Michelle arranged 3 loans for different properties and organised them all so they complimented one another perfectly. We are very happy with Michelle\'s outstanding service.

Michelle was incredibly helpful and patient with setting up our loan for our first investment property. She followed up with us regularly, and was very informative about the best options to suit us. We would high recommend her to anyone looking at a home loan.

Michelle is not just a broker but someone with experience across the total end to end process for buying property. This experience is priceless for someone who is not familiar with the process of dealing with banks and other in getting to the final settlement. I have since had a call from Michelle post settlement which is very comforting. Michelle was a great choice for my finance.

We had previously applied for loans and refinanced online through our original bank, which required many phone calls, emails and letters to many different people working in that office, we were never just dealing with the one person - this took up a lot of our time and caused a lot of stress. We have never used a home loan broker before and were very hesitant in trusting someone to take of our home loan, when we were recommended to Michelle. We are so glad that we found her! From now on, we will only ever refinance through Michelle. She was very attentive, carefully listened to all our wishes, remained professional, and very knowledgable - explaining everything so well. Was very patient, organised and quick to respond to any enquiries. This latest refinance ran so smoothly for us and we are so happy with the end result ! Michelle went above and beyond our expectations. Thanks again!!

Michelle did an excellent job of getting me home finance. She persevered for more than 20months to get the loan across the line.

Great service from our advisor. However your survey webpage needs some uprading as method of choosing advisor\'s name is very poor. Luckily my advisors name did not begin with \'z\'

I felt Michelle went out of her way to help us secure our mortgage, as we were overseas purchasers, it was a difficult process and Michelle supported us through. I can not praise Michelle enough for the service she provided. We are now settled into our beautiful new home!

Michelle was great. She was very patient as we were both very busy and did spend as much time as needed to prepare the documents she needed to set up our loan. She also helped us along the way in any respect she could and finally she got us a great deal which save us thousands of dollars.

Making your first venture into the property market can be daunting process wether you’re buying your first home or an investment property, as we chose to do. Being referred to Michelle has been a real blessing. Michelle has taken us through very stage of the process and clearly explained what to expect and when. Michelle has always been available on the phone (after hours) or on email and has promptly responded to any or our questions or queries. We have felt completely confident in the purchase of our first property and this is all down to Michelle’s professionalism.
