What you might be thinking right now

I don’t even know where to start… can I still talk to you?

My tax is structured for business… will a bank actually understand that?

I want loan updates from a real person, not an automatic email.

Are regional properties even worth investing in right now, or is it risky?

I don’t want to be judged. I just want someone to guide me properly.

My broker said this was my only option, is that really true?

We are outgrowing our house… what does upgrading even look like?

Can I buy a home on my own as a single mum?

Working with Katrina and her team was one of the best decisions we made. From day one she gave us confidence with her knowledge and genuine care.

We such a great experience working with Alcove on our mortgage. The whole process was incredibly smooth from start to finish. Ben Sum really took the time to understand our situation and made everything feel so personalized and stress-free. Super grateful for Ben and his team’s support and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a seamless and genuinely caring service.

My partner and I shopped around quite a bit for a mortgage broker (from the big names to smaller mum-and-dad firms), but no one came close to the level of expertise and professionalism that Ben and the team showed. Even though we brought them in fairly late in our home-buying journey, their advice gave us confidence in the deal we were making and the risks we were taking. With their support, we ended up finding the place that was right for us. We’ll definitely be working with them again!
