We recently had the pleasure of working with Angela Giokaris from Seniors First in relation to obtaining a reverse mortgage.Angela was always available to answer any questions we had (and there were quite a few!) re the product and the process and did so in a very friendly and professional manner .We would have no hesitation in recommending Angela particularly, and Seniors First to anyone considering a reverse mortgage .

Great service, highly recommended.
Being of the Baby Boomer generation, filling out simple forms, emails, scan and send documents from the local library, well they were anything but simple. Angela Giokaris from Seniors First was a godsend, i can't speak highly enough of her abilities and generosity of spirit

My Broker Don was terrific and very competentThe communication between Gateway solicitors ANZ title release and Seniors first was slow and often not understandable to me as a customerGalilee papers were not always relevant for a RM type contactGateway bank was helpful and responsiveGenerally I am happy with the result but feel it could have been a lot less hassle for me if emails were replied to quickly and explained clearlyRegardsJ Dixon
Great personality, great service from start to finish, would recomend this broker to anyone.

The history of Reverse Mortgage loans in Australia

1992 ›

Reverse Mortgages have been available in Australia since the early 1990’s. The Advance Bank was the first lender to offer a true Reverse Mortgage Loan (as opposed to a line of credit), but the product was only mildly popular due to limited demographic demand of the times.

1998 ›

When St George Bank took over Advance bank in 1998 it inherited their Reverse Mortgage loan product and this has since developed into the Senior’s Access Home Loan they continue to offer today.

2001 ›

Around 2001 the Commonwealth Bank entered the Reverse Mortgage market with the release of what is now known as ‘Equity Unlock For Seniors’.

2002 ›

From 2002 there was a period of steep growth in the Australian Reverse Mortgage market.
