Seniors First provided plenty of information on the concept of reverse mortgages, also referring us to the government website, for calculators showing scenarios of how the loan and house value would progress. Richard Chapman answered all our quesions in a clear, easily-understandable way and guided us through the process, to ensure that we and our children fully understood how reverse mortgages operate. With Richard's experience we were able to find a lender that suited the kind of loan we would need. We could see that the reverse mortgage would allow us to remain in our own home, and have funds available if needed later for aged care, without selling our home of 25 years and moving away. All in all, a very satisfactory experience with Richard and Seniors First.

Negotiating a Reverse Mortgage with Adam Oakley was considerably easier than we expected.
Adam was quick to allay our hesitance in dealing with an interstate broker and subsequent technological challenges including biometric ID.
Adam provided sound advice on the product best suited to our circumstances and maintained regular contact with us ensuring we were comfortable with the process and updating us on the progress of our application.
We researched reverse mortgages before committing and were impressed with Seniors Firsts webinars, FAQs and online information.
We look forward to maintaining contact with Seniors First and Adam in forthcoming years in reviewing our loan to ensure that it meets our future requirements.

I did quite a bit of research on reverse mortgages and also watched at least 6 webinars on line before contacting Seniors First. I was put in touch with one of their brokers (Palka Kumar). She was very professional and knowledgeable about the whole process of setting up the reverse mortgage. I live in Tasmania but this was not a problem and in a matter of weeks everything was approved - I had the ideal criteria for this product and my wife and I are extremely pleased with the entire way the business was conducted. Seniors First know what they are doing and we thank you for all your assistance.

We strongly recommend Angela at Seniors First to all potential clients.

Not knowing where to start refinancing our Reverse Mortgage, we saw Seniors First add and decided to try them for a starting point. We were lucky enough to have Adam Oakly assigned to our case. He did research & found the most suitable Reverse Mortgage lender that suited our cause. Adam was a great help & kept in contact until our loan was approved. Seniors First & Adam did a great job! Would most definitely recommend them. Brian & Pat.

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.

From the moment we called and spoke with Adam Oakley at Seniors First about a reverse mortgage, we were made to feel very comfortable with his warm, but honest approach. We were able to ask questions without feeling pressured and the amount of knowledge and information Adam shared with us, made the decision making so much easier. Another valuable trait of Adam’s is in his communication. He shared his direct line with us and when he wasn’t available, always returned our calls and answered emails promptly.
Adam walked us through each step of the process with ease, and we never felt alone at anytime. His recommendations were professional and unbiased and we didn’t hesitate to listen to his advice. I don’t know of any other bank or financial institution that would take the time and so much care, to ensure that their clients were happy. We certainly are, we can’t recommend Adam Oakley at Seniors First enough. It was a very big, life changing decision we had to consider and we feel grateful to have found Adam to see it through with us. Once again, thank you Adam for your time and patience. We couldn’t be happier. You are a true professional.

I recently applied for a Reverse Mortgage through Seniors First and would have to say it was the easiest loan I have ever got in my life.
Between Seniors First and my Broker Adam Oakley they made the whole application from start to finish a breeze.
The Professionalism and Guidance I got from Adam to make sure I understood everything before he advised on the right product that best suited me.
I would highly recommend Seniors First and Adam to anyone interested in a Reverse Mortgage.

Palka Kumar assisted us through the whole process, to its completion. She was brilliant. Without her assistance, the application would have been so difficult. But she guided us at every step to completion. What wonderful service - always available with wise advice, and encouragement along the way. Thank you Palka for your counsel and help. Mike and Loris.
