Lisa Elliott
Lisa is the Mortgage Broker and owner who you will meet with at your appointment. As a mobile broker Lisa loves getting out of the office and is happy to meet at your place, or at a nearby coffee shop. If an online meeting is preferred Lisa can accommodate this also.
Lisa has more than 20 years in global business across Europe and Australia, having spent a large part of her 20's living and working in London. Aside from the travel, it was the chance to meet new people and hear their story, which she still gets to enjoy running her own business.
Whilst in the UK, Lisa and her husband purchased their first investment property back in Australia. To this day, neither have stepped foot in that property.
After a few years of renting in the UK, and being completely brainwashed by the UK property renovation shows, Lisa and her husband decided to buy. The property was a fixer upper to say the least and they lived in the home during the work. New electrics were needed throughout, new plaster (no plaster board in the UK!) in every room, moving the bathroom upstairs to create a dining area, installing a new kitchen, and tile and carpet flooring throughout the two levels. Ask Lisa if she will renovate again, and live through it, and the answer is a firm "Not to that scale!".
Not long after moving back to Australia, and they bought again, and probably because of all the moving they did previously, they still live here.
A few years after, and they added to their investment portfolio, but this property they have stepped inside of..... twice.
Lisa has been through the process of buying and selling homes and understands how overwhelming the process can be, and how the steps towards sttlement can feel overly complicated.
When building her business, Lisa's aim was always to make sure her clients are understood and have the information they need to make a sound decision that meets their requirements. Lisa says "It's not just about the transaction. I want to make sure my clients are looked after all through the process and beyond. Even if they have a question 6 months or 2 years later, I am here for them. After all, this is my business".
When not working, Lisa loves to spend time with her husband, daughter, and the furry family members.
