I have been dealing with Richard, Josh, and the Ausfirst Lending team for many years, and their service has always been exceptional. Most recently, they helped us secure a new mortgage for our family home. They were professional, efficient, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Their communication and support made everything seamless and stress-free. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thank you to the whole team!

Richard and his team are absolute lifesavers. My partner and I came to them after another broker flat-out rejected our application and left us stranded. Richard stepped in with incredible energy and an immediate eagerness to help, and the team got us an answer within just 24 hours. The work ethic here is next level; Richard was sending us crucial updates at 1900hrs so we never had to stress about where things stood. Professional, relentless, and truly dedicated to getting the deal done. Highly recommend!

I honestly can’t recommend Richard highly enough. From our very first conversation, it was obvious that he genuinely cared about getting the best outcome for us, he is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and patient. Richard had pre approval for our home loan before the original company we chose to go with even bothered to respond.  Richard was always available to answer questions, explain things in plain English, and keep us updated. These days I find it is rare to come across someone who exceeds expectations to the extent Richard did. He went above and beyond at every stage, and the outcome he achieved for us was fantastic. If you’re looking for a mortgage broker who genuinely cares, works incredibly hard for his clients, and delivers exceptional results, Richard is the person you want in your corner. Thank you, Richard. We were absolutely blown away by your service.

Time for another review! We've known Richard for over 30 years now... & have trusted him & his team with all our finance requirements no matter how big or small. With Josh working alongside, they are the perfect team. We are 1400ks away, and everything is super easy, super efficient & easy to process... Wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you again .. A Team.
