What Our Clients Say.

Hear directly from clients who’ve grown their portfolio with Borrow Well.

We highly recommend Borrow Well /Emma and Nick!! Our situation wasn't straightforward - we had been working overseas for the past year and hadn't officially started our new roles in Australia, although we had signed employment contracts. A larger brokerage firm we initially approached essentially ruled out our position straight away, saying we would need to work the next 3-6 months to get a history and then apply. In contrast, Emma took the time to understand our position and worked through with us to get the best structure and a very speedy approval. From start to finish, she was professional, responsive, and thorough. She clearly explained each step of the process and kept us informed throughout, which was extremely helpful as first home buyers. Despite the added complexity of our employment position, she was able to secure us a loan and negotiate the rate significantly down. We would highly recommend Borrow Well!!

Emma is a total game-changer! 5/5 stars I can't recommend Emma highly enough. I initially struggled to choose between my previous broker and a few others, but Emma instantly stood out. Even when we ran into a few unexpected blocks early on, her service was absolutely exceptional. She stayed on top of everything, kept me calm, and sorted it all out effortlessly. I'm so confident in her work that I know I'll never need to look for another mortgage broker again. If you want someone who delivers amazing service and actually gets results, Emma is the one!

My partner and I went to Emma and Nick to assist us pull out some PPOR equity to purchase shares. Emma shopped lenders for PPOR valuations, and we managed to pick a final lender that came in ~$150k above that contemplated by our previous broker based on a more generic approach. Access to capital is arguably more important than interest rate comparisons alone. Emma also negotiated with the lenders to cut some additional basis points from the initially quoted rates, and we will end up saving on the PPOR split of our loan despite increased LVR (notwithstanding the recent RBA rate rise). Nick and Emma bring a unique skillset and strategic approach given their impressive business, property and lending experience in their own capacity. You are not provided with cookie cutter solutions. Borrow Well bring a hands on and proactive approach and I encourage all to consider them given their commitment to service and going the extra mile (a similar theme already demonstrated in their Social Coffee venture). Thanks!!

I was paying off medical debt in a foreign country and HECS while starting a new full-time job. I did not want to risk my circumstances further, but always knew I wanted to create wealth and long-term stability. Through Emma and Ayla's supportive guidance, we mapped out a strategic plan to increase my borrowing power. Their mentorship identified feasible options, trust the process, and achieve milestones that aligned with my long-term goals. Deeply grateful for their life-changing support.

Emma helped us finance an investment property. Her knowledge of mortgage options is thorough and she was able to find us a great, flexible mortgage. Emma was very organised and helpful and easy to deal with. I recommend her as one of the best mortgage brokers I've dealt with, and will be back again.

Highly reccomended. I stumbled across an investment property which I was seriously interested in, 2 days before the auction date! No way did I have my ducks in a row, barely even in the same pond. Borrow Well were able to talk me through …

Mortgage broking in Kirribilli: common questions

Do you work with buyers in Kirribilli?

Yes. Borrow Well operates from Adelaide, South Australia. We do not have an office in New South Wales, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise. Everything is handled remotely — calls, documents and settlement coordination — which is how the majority of our New South Wales clients work with us. Lending is a national market: the same lenders, the same credit policy and the same serviceability rules apply wherever the property is.

What does a mortgage broker in Kirribilli actually do?

We work out what you can borrow and how the loan should be structured, identify which lenders read your particular income and position most favourably, prepare and submit the application, and manage it through to settlement. For investors, the structuring is the part that matters most — it decides whether the purchase after this one is still possible.

How much can I borrow for a property in Kirribilli?

It depends on your income type, your existing debts and how each lender assesses them. Every lender assesses your existing loans at a buffered interest rate well above what you actually pay, so borrowing capacity varies significantly between them for identical circumstances. We will give you a real figure from your actual numbers rather than a calculator estimate.

Can you help if I am self-employed or my income is complicated?

That is a large share of what we do. Company and trust income, contract work, bonus and commission, and overseas earnings are all assessable, but the evidence standard and treatment vary widely between lenders. Getting that right is usually worth more than a marginally sharper rate.

Do you charge a fee?

Yes. Borrow Well charges a fee for service rather than working purely for lender commission. It removes the incentive to steer you toward whichever lender pays best, and it is what makes it viable to spend real time on a file that a volume brokerage would decline. The full fee structure and any commission arrangements are disclosed in writing in your Credit Proposal and Credit Guide before you engage us.

How do we get started?

A short call, around five minutes, to understand where you are and whether we can help. No paperwork and no commitment at that stage. If it looks like a fit, we tell you exactly which documents we need, once, up front.
