What makes us special
Simple process
Life is complicated but getting a loan doesn’t have to be. Our online smart forms make the paperwork easy and then we take care of the tricky stuff. We know you’re busy so we work with you how you want to work. If you prefer emails, calls, zoom, meeting in person or a handwritten letter, no problem, we want you to feel comfortable and confident throughout.
No stress
Let us be your cool calm waters and remove the unnecessary stress. We’ve been doing this stuff for years, so we know how to cut through the complexity and keep things simple and easy.
Tailored Advice
Banks and insurance providers pay commission to brokers for bringing in business, however, commission rates vary from one institution to the next, and some brokers will push you into a solution that isn’t right for you because they get a better commission. That’s not how Buddy works. All our mortgage advisers are on salaries, not commissions, so they can focus on the providers that are best for you and tailor their advice to help you meet your goals.
Years of Experience
We used to work in banks so we know how banks work. We know the ins and outs, the tricks and traps, the policies and procedures, so we can make sure your application lands perfectly in the perfect place.
Leading rates
Getting the best rates is partly about understanding you and how to put your best financial foot forward. It’s also about knowing where the best rates are and how to structure the perfect applications. We have access to 26 banks and other lenders, and the experience to get the best deal for you.
The Banks Pay Us
We work for you but the banks and insurance companies pay the bills. The only possible cost is the missed opportunity if you don’t call Buddy.
