This is the second time Ive used Raymond Teh at Mortgage Choice Pyrmont. Raymond has a very good understanding of the market, providing a professional recommendation based on your situation. He simplifies what would otherwise be a stressful process.
On my recent purchase, Raymond and his team were tasked with a quick turn around which he was able to deliver on. I cant thank him and his team enough for helping me out. Highly recommended and will definitely be used again.Harry

To be eligible, first homeowners in the ACT must have a household income below $160,000. This number increases up to $176,650 depending on the number of children you may have.
