I highly recommend Mike McGinley - knowledgeable and patient, with excellent communication. He made the whole house buying process feel very easy

Mike McGinley from Connect Me Mortgages was the best throughout this very stressful process of buying my first home. He was very encouraging and positive when I started to lose faith in the home ownership dream. He never judged me when I wanted to ask silly questions and discuss things at length until they made sense in my brain. He was available to discuss things all the time and explained things in a way that I understood even if it took a while to make sense to me. There aren't enough positive things I can say about Mike but he truly is phenomenal. I always felt like he was on my team because he was always honest and had my back when it came to some of the sneaky characters you meet along the home ownership journey. He replies quickly to emails and lists things and makes sure they're exactly what the bank needs from you. He looks at all your options and goes with the best one for you (even when you decide to have a complicated first home purchase) I write this with a full and happy heart in my very own home that is my little slice of paradise. Thank you Mike, without you I wouldn't be sitting on the floor eating takeout in my very first home.

Mike from Connect Me Mortgages has done an excellent job on helping me secure the homeloan from the beginning to the end when I was buying the house.

My partner and I were referred to connect me mortgages from friends to help with the purchase of our first home. As first home buyers, the concept of a loan and interest rates is mind baffling. Mike made this process so easy to understand and streamlined the process for us, he is very knowledgeable and made understanding how to structure our loan easy! He went above and beyond to help clarify everything, always replying to our emails and calls to answer whatever questions we had - no matter how small. We moved into our first home just over a week ago and are very grateful for Mike’s advise, we couldn’t recommend him more!

As first home buyers we were very new to the home ownership process, we decided to approach Connect Me Mortgages. Mike is professional, knowledgeable and put our minds at ease.

We are truly grateful for Emma and now we get to enjoy our first home sweet home!-Kenneth & Rhoda

When there’s so many five star ratings out there it’s hard to differentiate. Mike is professional, responsive and really made things work for us. Highly recommend and appreciated Mike’s knowledge and guidance to find a mortgage structure that works for us.

Mike was a great help in refinancing our mortgage and consolidating our debt. He was very knowledgeable about the mortgage market and took the time to understand our needs.

Mike helped us purchase our first home a few years ago. He has provided expert advice once more, helping us refix our home loan. He brings a wealth of expertise, industry connections and insight. This gave us great confidence knowing we were in excellent hands.Thanks again Mike, we look forward to connecting once more in the not too distant future.

I was a little hesitant in using a mortgage broker, after my first experience where they seemed to put in little to no effort and expected to kick back and just use me as a cash cow.Fortunately I was referred onto Emma by a mutual friend. She has definitely changed my perception on what a mortgage broker can achieve for you.Emma is pro-active, patient and a wealth of knowledge, while all being down to earth and easily approachable.She has provided great guidance and put in time outside of her regular work days to help me as a customer. She has also managed to wrangle a few additional items we discussed which has no doubt saved me thousands for my first few years of paying down the mortgage. The five starts doesn't do her justice. Would I recommend. Hell yeah!

I can’t rate Mike high enough. He has made what can be a stressful journey smooth and easy. Giving us clear advice, putting our interests first and giving clear communication the entire way. Been an absolute pleasure.Thank you Mike!

So nice to work with! Made buying our first home less stressful and easy. 100% recommend Connect Me Mortgages. Thank you for all your help!
