Home Loans For Over 55's

Since the introduction of the National Consumer Credit Protection (NCCP) regulation in 2010, for people over 55 years, it is often more difficult to obtain a home loan mortgage for refinance or purchase.

For these senior borrowers, mortgage finance can be a complex financial maze that is tricky to navigate - but there is help available. Depending on your situation, there may be some banks and lenders that are better than the others. Although every transaction has its own unique challenges, Seniors First has a lot of experience in obtaining mortgage approval for older borrowers seeking to refinance, release home equity, or to purchase a new property.

What initially felt like a daunting process, was made seamless and easy. My broker Palka ensured that I was well informed at every step of the application process and was always readily available to respond to my questions. I feel excited to be able to move forward with my plans now.

Understanding, deciding, facilitating and processing an application for a reverse mortgage is not a simple process, however having a Broker who works closely with you step by step is an absolute must have. We choose Seniors First based on peer and industry reviews coupled with the explanatory telecasts they provided explaining what was involved. Having decided to explore further we linked up with our Broker, Angela Giokaris via a lengthy phone discussion. Throughout the following weeks as the application process progressed we were confident that we were in good hands. Angela remained in contact every step of the way, openly ensuring we understood the pros and cons of a reverse mortgage and facilitated every step of the journey. Importantly, there were a couple of conditions from Heartland, our chosen bank, that we had issues with. Angela negotiated with Heartland on our behalf and secured the conditions we were chasing. We found Angela to be highly professional, very knowledgeable of the reverse mortgage product and banking generally. Importantly also, friendly, patient, considerate of our needs, thorough in detail and overall an absolute pleasure to work with. We are very happy with the end result and being able to convert our asset value to a cash value and opening the door to the rest of our lives. We would wholeheartedly recommend Seniors First, and in particular Angela to anyone who is considering going down this track. Barry.

We were/are clients of Palka Kumar. We were impressed with her friendly nature and boundless knowledge of the industry. We had a number of Tele-conferences with her as she guided us through the process and let us know from the outset that she was with us the whole way through to conclusion. Palka was always available to answer any questions and kept us informed as the process went through the various stages. We have nothing but praise and appreciation for Palkas commitment to her clients. She always made us feel assured and relaxed about a sometimes daunting process. Outstanding.
