The support Annie & Steve had when buying their home
Annie & Steve's journey to buying a home in Australia wasn't straightforward.
After years of renting, questioning where they wanted to settle and wondering whether buying was even realistic for them, they eventually decided to look beyond the city and found their home in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
Hunter Galloway helped them navigate the mortgage side of the process and supported them through a buying journey that had more than a few unexpected twists along the way.
Their home is in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, while Hunter Galloway is based in Brisbane. The whole process was handled remotely, which is exactly how we work with clients around Australia.
Hunter Galloway were the only people we trusted throughout the home buying process. They went above and beyond for us.
Leave your details and we will call you
You don't need to have everything figured out before you speak to a mortgage broker. Leave your details below and one of the Hunter Galloway team will give you a call within 4 business hours. It's free, there's no obligation to continue and the first conversation isn't a loan application.
Talk to a broker
Share your details and a broker will call you within 4 business hours.
What happens on the first call
It's a conversation, not an application. Nothing is submitted to a lender and simply having the call doesn't involve a credit check.
What are you hoping to do? Talk through where you're thinking about buying, roughly when you'd like to buy and whether it's your first home, your next home or another property move.
Talk through your current position: Your income, deposit or equity and any existing debts. You only need a rough picture for the first conversation.
Understand what the numbers could look like: The team can talk through a working borrowing range, likely buying costs and anything you may need to work on before you're ready to apply.
Decide what happens next: Only if you want to continue. You might be ready to take the next step now, or you might simply leave the call knowing what you need to work towards and come back later.
You don't need to live in Brisbane to work with Hunter Galloway
Hunter Galloway is based in Brisbane, but we work with home buyers across Australia by phone and video.
Annie & Steve are a good example. They used our Brisbane team while buying their home in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
So whether you're buying in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria or elsewhere in Australia, location doesn't need to stop you from speaking with us.

What people say after working with us
Hunter Galloway is the most professional team I've ever had the privilege of working with. They have helped us with two home loan applications so far and their advice has always been clear, incredibly responsive and accurate.
We were under a tight deadline and quite nervous, as it was our first time going through an auction. Not only did Hunter Galloway secure our pre-approval quickly, but they also took the time to thoroughly explain the entire process.
The process was incredibly smooth from start to finish. The team was always responsive, clear in their communication, and took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand.

Before your first call
What does the first call cost?
Nothing. For most standard residential home loans there's no fee for our service. We're generally paid by the lender if your loan settles, and we'll explain how we're paid before you commit to anything.
Do I need to have found a property first?
No. In fact, speaking to a mortgage broker before you start seriously house hunting can help you understand what may be realistic and give you a clearer idea of the price range you should be looking at.
What if I'm interested in buying but I'm not ready yet?
That's completely fine. You might still be saving a deposit, deciding where you want to live or simply trying to understand whether buying is realistic for you. The first conversation can help you understand what your options may look like now and what you might need to work towards.
Will speaking to you affect my credit file?
No. An initial conversation doesn't involve a credit enquiry. A formal loan application can involve a credit enquiry, and we'll explain when that would happen before anything is submitted.
I already own a home. Is this still for me?
Yes. Hunter Galloway isn't only for first-home buyers. If you're looking to upgrade, move somewhere different, use equity from your existing home or understand what another purchase might look like, the team can talk through your options with you.
Do I have to be in Brisbane?
No. Hunter Galloway is based in Brisbane but works with clients across Australia by phone and video. Annie & Steve worked with the Brisbane team when they bought their home in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
Buying a home starts before the open home.
Whether you're ready to start looking now or you're still trying to understand what might be possible, a conversation with a mortgage broker can give you a clearer idea of what to do next.
Free initial conversation. No obligation.
