I was very happy with Seniors First to organize my affairs. Seema was a nice person to deal with and great at getting my application approved, she persisted with my lack of Technology and sending documents. Her experience and knowledge will guarantee success.

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.

I can’t speak highly enough of Seniors First Reverse Mortgage Brokers. From the moment I made contact with them regarding a possible application for a Reverse Mortgage
I felt extremely comfortable working through the process. There was no pressure to continue but I am extremely glad I decided to proceed.
Seniors First were very considerate and concerned that I completely understood the pros and cons of the decision I was making. I felt at ease discussing the very involved process through very friendly and supportive phone conversations and via many emails. I greatly appreciated how I was kept up to date with the applications progress. Contact about any concerns was always welcome.
I unreservedly recommend their thorough unquestionable service. I am amazed at how smooth the process was, especially as it resulted in a very positive outcome.
Thank you for your friendly, unbelievable guidance and support.

I don’t normally write reviews, it’s never that often that I come across great people, or companies as a whole. I just want to set a scene so to speak, because I know anyone reading this is in the same place I was in. The past few years have had some of the most challenging health issues, then chuck in a hip replacement on top. The last 12 months have been the most expensive. My home is literally crumbling down around me, I won’t list things, it will make your mind boggle.
I had heard about reverse mortgages a number of times over the past couple of years, very different from a standard mortgage. It made me a little nervous, but I did research. I rang a couple of brokers, what’s your email, if you have any questions, ring me back.
Adam Oakley from Seniors First, was the first one to truly speak to me. Answered all my weird questions, gave me so much information, and helped me all the way. Some critical information such as Centrelink, I checked up on. Adam was spot on with what he had told me. Do your own research, government web sites, brokers, and lenders so you can understand what is being explained. Taking on anything financial is a huge step, being guided (handheld, in my case) by Adam is a blessing.
