Richard gave us great advice when we were wondering what to do when our fixed rate expired. He clearly explained our options and understood our circumstances. Really easy to talk to. Would recommend speaking with Richard

Richard was great - Knowledgeable, friendly and helpful and patient.

We would have fumbled in the dark, guessing at which institution to approach for a loan. Richard assessed our requirements and our circumstances and connected us with the most appropriate lender.

The loan was approved very quickly and we were moving into our new home soon afterward.

We definitely recommend Richard to anyone looking for a no fuss experience obtaining a mortgage.

First class service. Richard walked us through each step and made us feel very comfortable throughout the decision making process which can be very nerve-wracking. I would recommend using Richard for all your mortgage needs.

Lauren Ferguson was our mortgage broker during 2023. At times she was assisted by Richard Ferguson. We found them to be effective, supportive and efficient. It was quite a slog looking for an entry level property while rates and prices kept rising, and sales volumes were super low, so it was great to have Lauren and Richard on our side I would recommend their help to anyone looking to make that massive step

Richard helped us with our mortgage a few years ago and as the time rolls around to think about new opportunities, why wouldn't we contact Richard again He was very helpful, prompt, explained everything in detail and got us the right deal for us.

I highly recommend Richard for anyone seeking a broker. Hes very knowledgeable and trust worthy.

During the process we needed to switch from an investment loan to bridging finance and Richard was happy to provide advice on who to approach direct despite not earning a commission that way.

Richard at Mortgage Choice at Annandale has been polite, courteous and genuinely helpful in helping to make the right loan decisions. He also follows up years after the loan to help you get a better deal. Highly recommended

One of the top real estate agents in Sydney is Richard from Mortgage Choice. He has extensive knowledge of every facet of real estate transactions. During my two property acquisitions, he was a huge help. He always takes care of everything quickly. The acquisition of a first home or an investment property is highly recommended.

For those looking for a mortgage broker I would highly recommend Richard

I was referred to Richard by my colleague. Based on my dealings with him, I find Richard and Lauren, her daughter very professional and efficient. Their inputs were always invaluable and response is always prompt. Regardless whether its wee hours of the day, weekend or even when they are on vacation, they will see to it that items are addressed in a timely manner especially if the matter is urgent. Hard to get this kind of customer service nowadays.

They helped me get the best rate available and always happy to go the extra mile to answer my clarifications which were heaps. Their service is superb and second to none

Thanks Richard and Lauren Looking forward to our next transaction.

If you are in need of a mortgage broker, look no further and get in touch with Richard

Although I have never been through the entire process of refinancing with Richard he has twice helped me with options and information even though he has not made a fee from it. He is responsive, helpful and trustworthy and I hope to be able to go through the full process with him one day, we won't be going elsewhere

After shopping around Richards knowledge and great advice gave me and my partner the confidence to go with himself and Lauren for mortgage advice and how thankful we are that we chose them.

Nothing was too much of an ask and we were given a variety of options for us to make the decision unlike some previous mortgage brokers had made us feel, in the end we are confident we got the best advice and result and for that we are so grateful.

I cannot recommend Richard highly enough Richard worked tirelessly to recommend and ensure I got the best deal on my mortgages and left no stone unturned He made the whole process so simple he took the time to explain everything in terms I could understand and dealt with all the bank forms, follow ups and queries for me.

When it came to settlement, he made sure everything ran like clockwork. Chasing the bank sometimes several times daily, he helped me push my conveyancer along and ultimately helped me to settle on a property in 2 weeks

If you are looking at getting a mortgage and want a broker that has your best interest in mind, Richard is the guy for you

Both Richard and Lauren were immensely helpful in our first home purchase. We got the First Home Grant through them and got a competitive rate.

But above all both of them were instant on responses and any follow up with the bank. Always picked up the phone and patiently explained everything till we undersood the process. Being a first home owner is anxiety enducing. I couldnt thank this team enough for always be there for me whenever I needed.

I would highly recommend using there services.

I did consider researching and applying for a home loan myself, but having used Richard previously I figured why not just make use of an expert. He listened to what I needed, offered great advice and the whole process couldn't have gone smoother. He is really responsive and professional. I would recommend his services highly. Thanks Richard

Buying my first owner occupied apartment was a big step for me. Richard simplified the process so that I understood everything and was more then happy to answer an email or take a call. I couldnt have done it without him. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to take the first step to purchasing a property.

Thank you Richard! You were very professional, answered all my questions and provided reassurance that my timeframes would be met, making a stressful process much less stressful! I really appreciated that you communicated well and often, and provided good alternatives to me, but I also never felt pressured to do anything other than make the right decision for me. I would definitely recommend your services! Thanks again.

Dear Richard,

I just wanted to write and thank you for your time yesterday.

Your knowledge and experience shone through, and I left feeling not only informed in a way that I could never be if I tried to do this myself, but secure in the knowledge that when the right property and the right circumstances come up, I will be in extremely safe hands coming back to you. Which I hope will be soon.

Should any of my friends or colleagues find themselves looking for a mortgage, I will do my utmost to send them to you. It will be in their best interests.

Thank you again,

Richard has been helping us for more than 20 years and we simply could not speak more highly of him. We recently bought a family home with the help of Richard and once again, all these years later, he was just as much help. Honestly, we wouldn't use anyone else.

Deborah

Richard has helped us every step of the way for many years now. He is patient, knowledgeable and thorough and we would be stuck without him We definitely recommend his services

Paula

Richard helped my partner and myself buy a property last year and we could not speak any more highly of him. His knowledge and patience is like no other we have seen in the industry. Having visited other mortgage brokers in the past, they did not even slightly compare to the genuine care Richard provides when answering questions and solving problems, big and small.

Nicholas

Richard helped us secure our first mortgage and guided us through the purchase of our home 8 years ago. He has since been our first port of call whenever there is a need to remortgage or otherwise manage a change of providers. Richard has always operated in our best interest with an empathy and understanding not often found in the finance industry. For someone who loathes dealing with financial institutions Richard has proved a trustworthy agent and go-between.

Richard Ferguson is simply the best mortgage broker in the inner west He just saved me over 5,000 a year on my home loan with one phone call to my lender That's what I call great customer service - fast, friendly and effective And Richard always takes the time to answer my questions, no matter how basic they are I highly recommend Richard and Mortgage Choice

Richard's support throughout the process was appreciated, answering all our questions with the mantra 'there are no stupid questions' Was very transparent and gave us advice on the whole process of buying a property and what to look out for. Would recommend to others.

With the property prices in Sydney going up, the savage competition, and the lack of understanding of the home buying process contributed to a 4 year search for our first home. The easiest part of the whole thing was our finances. From the first time we contacted Richard from Mortgage Choice, he showed genuine concern for making sure we were taken care of. He laid everything out for us and explained what our situation was and where we stood and what we needed to be looking at in terms of the loan we were getting. Richard actually came to visit us and willingly offered his services even though we told him we are just getting in to the market and we were not sure if we even wanted to buy yet. He just wanted to help us and stuck with us for 4 years always willing to make a trip out to our place and give us an update as to where we were and what choice was best for us. When we finally found a place, Richard even filled in where our solicitor was lacking. His experience and knowledge was fantastic. He did way more than we can ever thank him for during the settlement period. Almost 6 months down the track Richard still checks in from time to time to touch base with us and see how things are going with our loan.

Dear Richard, Now that we've settled into our beautiful new home in the Blue Mountains, we wanted to say a big thank you for the part that you played. You simply made the whole process so easy for us, as first home buyers, that I can't imagine how it could have gone more smoothly. As I write this I'm looking out the living room window across our nine acres and I can see the city lights twinkling in the distance - we certainly made the right decision! We love our new life up here.
With our very best thanks from Anne-Maree and Jan.

That really was the least hassle I have ever been through for anything so major. Thank you. If I compare how much time and running around we did when we were arranging our own mortgage it was nothing! I also appreciate your courtesy, promptness and absence of any pushiness/pressure in persuading us to go with your company - Mortgage Choice.
Wishing you more success and happy customers !

Richard was fantastic helping us through the maze of buying land and building our brand new home. Without his help we almost certainly would have not ended up with the same result.
We love our new home - and Richard has kept in touch to make sure everything is OK.
We are sure you will not be disappointed with the above and beyond service that Mortgage Choice Annandale delivers.

Patricia

The experience and knowledge of the Annandale branch helped me establish the right structure of loan types for my current and future investments. I am more than satisfied with the result. Given the demands on my time, I do not thing that I could have come up with such a great solution to my requirements by doing it myself. Richard at Annandale kept me in the loop throughout the process and provided me with advice that I do not think my own bank would have given me.
