NICK CHEN

Nick started his banking and finance career 9 years ago, working for one of the major 4 banks in Australia. He started with providing services for unsecured lending and then transitioned into a role assisting clients with their home loan maintenance needs. After 3 years, Nick decided to step out of his comfort zone to help clients with all banking products at his local branch. Nick’s personable manner and care led him to find an interest in Mortgage Lending.

In early 2017, Through Nick’s drive for continuous improvement and his ambition to grow, he was offered an opportunity to venture into Mortgage Brokering. This was where Nick spent time shadowing and learning from the top mortgage brokers in the country. During this period, Nick assisted with a wide range of clients: First home buyers, residential to commercial investors and many more.

This, in addition to his experience working at the banks, gave Nick a set of skills that allows him to understand his clients and provide them with recommendations that are tailored to their needs. Nick prides himself on being able to assist homeowners and property investors with sound advice, while making the process seamless, informative and easy to understand.

What others have said about Nick Chen

My partner and I had the great pleasure in working with Nick and Ted to make our first home owner dreams come true. After years of being told we couldn’t own our first home we finally found people that told us we could and now we do!! Nick guided us the ENTIRE way through. He answered our calls and concerns outside of business hours, he explained things over and over until we under stood. He went above and beyond in ways I could never repay him for. He was just truly brilliant! We never felt like just another number like we did with other brokers. There was a genuine care factor the whole way through. The experience was so great with the team that we are not done yet. We will be back for our future homes, cars etc and we know that we will be supported by people that genuinely have our best financial interest at heart. So to Nick and Ted, my family is forever thankful for changing our lives forever!!!
