Warning: a long, but good read ahead...“Buying our 1st house” a scary & nerve-wracking thought. Something I thought my partner & I were not ready to do until we had heaps of zero’s showing in our savings account. Thanks to a couple of friends who gave us enough confidence to even just entertain the idea, we found Duane Aarts. I remember back in 2018 when we first started talking to Duane, how pessimistic I was about the whole “Buying our 1st house” thing. I thought for sure, we would definitely be stuck paying someone else’s mortgage off for years.Duane on the other hand, was always optimistic. He made sure to always listen, gather relevant information, come back to us with information where hardly any jargon was used. And even if there was, he always translates information in a way we would understand, however many times needed.Nearly 2 years later after a few life obstacles, our dream became a reality. We bought Our First House, OUR HOME.On & off during this time, we were in touch with Duane. I have never met anyone so attentive & helpful to other’s. It felt like he made our dream his dream too. Duane always had our best interest at heart.In the end, the ended up with the best deal possible and we hardly had to do anything. Duane did all the hard work.Now that I know better, I can definitely give you a piece of advice.It’s not hard, it’s not scary, it’s not intimidating. It’s not stressful.As long as you have the right people & help surrounding you – the process is easy. The first step is to pick up that phone & call Duane.My partner & I 100% percent would recommend Duane Aarts from Mortgage Express. It makes a huge difference dealing with someone who wholeheartedly loves their job & helping people.Thank you Duane – without your help, we won’t be where we are now.

After 2 years in the 'first home buyers' market for myself and my partner, we had exhausted everything and were at the point we were struggling to get anything from the bank. After a recommendation for Duane, he not only was super reassuring, confident and kind over the phone but was able to get us much more than we expected. Through his amazing mahi we have obtained our first home and could not recommend him more. Thank you so much for your help Duane.

Duane is super easy to communicate with, he kept me in the loop and quickly responded to any queries. Duane ensured I fully understood all the information and provided sound advice that helped me to make the best decisions. Highly recommend Duane if you are looking for someone to help you with your mortgage - be it first home or otherwise he really understands the market and strives to understand your goals.

Duane is so amazing ! My partner and I are so happy with his service and help!. We started our journey with Duane just over a month ago, I googled good mortgage brokers in Canterbury and he popped up as we had reached out to a couple of other mortgage brokers and did not like the vibes we got.

I found Duane through searching for well reviewed morgage brokers to start my journey and I have found he has lived up to the reviews. He has been fantastic to deal with from start to finish and has been very knowledgeable about everything involved and great at answering any questions I had. He has made the process easy and simple and allowed me to speed through this process and get the result I was after. He helped with pointing me in the right direction of people to touch base with to assist different parts of the process which gave me all the confidence i needed to know nothing had been missed and everything had been sorted down to the smallest details. Overall the process of getting a loan sorted to buy a house was so much easier than i imagined for a first home buyer getting into the market and took alot of the stress out of the process
