We couldn't speak more highly of these guys! Michael and the team assisted my partner and I in finding the most suitable mortgage options for purchasing our first home, and made the whole process go as smoothly as possible. Explained things in a way that made sense, super prompt responses to all our questions. Definitely recommend!

MJ Financial Chiefs were great to work with. They were very quick to respond to enquiries and managing our refinancing and very patient when I wasn't as quick responding. We received fast approval and would absolutely recommend them or work with them again.

The guys as MJ Financial chiefs have been great for us - firstly in helping navigate the settlement of our land loan and then the build loan that has followed. Communication all the way through has been helpful, clear and calming. Their knowledge of what to expect and how to plan and progress through each stage has been super and greatly appreciated. Highly recommend anyone needing help through for their mortgage and finance needs to give Justin, Michael and Dyl a go!

Michael at MJ Financial Chiefs has been incredible to work with. I first got in contact with him to ensure we could have everything in order and see what our borrowing capacity was for when we found a property to purchase. That quickly turned into we have found a property and placed an offer. All for which Michael was there along the way to support us and answer any questions we had. The high level and promptness of his work in even the most challenging situations was outstanding.This is not our first property or first time dealing with a broker, but this was by far the easiest and smoothest dealing we have ever had and it certainly was a very unique situation we had.Our work with MJ Financial Chiefs will continue after settlement and I highly recommend to anyone who is looking to begin and/or continue their property and financial journey.Thank you.

Couldn’t recommend Michael and the team any more !!!We got in contact with Michael as we were starting to look for our first home and it was the best decision we made. From the very start of the process Michael has been approachable, available, professional, patient and caring. The effective communication and genuine care Michael showed us made the whole process of buying a house so much better!We can’t thank Michael enough for helping us through this process!

I first enlisted the expert assistance from Michael when I embarked on purchasing my first property in 2016. After a very successful and smooth experience, I didn't hesitate to contact Michael for income protection, life and TPD insurance and again for the purchase of our family home late last year. Can't fault Michael's work, he is always very prompt getting back to emails and calls and answers all questions we've had in an easy to understand manner. Michael is our "go to" for any financial assistance and advice. Thank you chiefs!

Michael had been fantastic to deal with, he is knowledgeable, responsive and patient when asked 1001 questions. He has been fantastic helping us successfully apply for a home loan under tricky circumstances and he nailed it where other brokers had failed. Michael was able to think outside the square and really pushed for a positive end result. Michael has also purchased shares on my behalf and the process was very smooth and easy for navigate. If I could give MJ Financial Chiefs 10 stars I would!

I was referred to Justin 2 years ago when I first started looking at options to purchase my first home. It’s been 2 years lol but we’ve finally gotten there and I can’t thank Justin enough for his advise, patience and guidance while I navigated through this process and chose a place to settle down. He communicates quickly and always takes the time to answer any questions. Highly recommend MJ Chiefs and I will absolutely be working with them again!

Excellent result by Justin - knowledgeable, prompt, understanding and genuine.During our dealing with Justin, he took his time to listen and understand our plan and completely removed that burden completely from the get go. To add on top, everything was transparent and upfront, which gave us comfort and a complete trust that his recommendation is based on our best interests.Upon this dealing, safe to say that Justin will now be our main contact for future purchases and refinancing.

Dealing with Justin was refreshing, as he was always available to explain any questions my partner and I may have had and ensured us throughout the process.Despite having some issues with parts of the process he was easily able to rectify these issues and get us back underway to stay on target for settlement.Would recommend especially to people just starting out with looking for a house as he has profound understanding of what is required and explains the requirements in a way that doesn't make you feel stupid.Thanks Justin and MJ Financial Chiefs!

Michael from MJ Financial Chiefs helped us purchase our family home and we can't speak more highly of the service he provided. We had an extremely short settlement period and Michael worked tirelessly to ensure our loan was approved in that time. His communication was second to none and we were kept in the loop at every step. We would have no hesitation recommending Michael and the team to assist with your financial success!
