Excellent service and knowledge. Pat and Jake were able to support through the entire process and were contactable almost every step of the process. They supported my loan preferences and knew the right angles to take to ensure successful loan approval and settlement.
Invaluable advice . We have engaged Pat and his team several times over the last 15-20 years, whenever we have needed to refinance. Each time the experience has been trouble free, taking all the pressure off us to wade through everything ourselves enabling us to make informed decisions about our home loans. We have even recommended Pat and his team to family members who have also had a very positive experience.
We highly recommend the service of Pat and the team at NBHL. Pat is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and works in an engaging and personable manner. Communication is always prompt, and we have been incredibly satisfied with the result each time we've worked with the team.

Easy and stress free . My wife and I have used Patrick a number of times and this time was no different to other experiences with him. He was always on hand to answer any questions and put our minds at ease. Patrick’s technology based approach made getting all our documents from our existing bank accounts into a format required for reviewing was brilliant to use. Anyone considering a new loan I would highly recommend Patrick Cranshaw and his services.
Wonderful experience with Pat, Fiona and the team at NBHL. As a first home buyer, they made it simple for me to understand and were very responsive to my questions and concerns. Thank you!
Pat and his team were a pleasure to work with while we were looking for our first home. I want to pay special thanks to Jake, who truly went above and beyond for us and was always happy to answer our questions (which there were many of)
The team at NBHL have been amazing throughout our whole time with them. As first home buyers they’ve made the process a lot more easier & stress free. Huge thanks to Pat & Fiona!
Thank you Patrick, Di and team. We really appreciate all the help and information you provided us with our first home loan. NBHL made the process simple and easy to go through. You and your team were very quick to answer any queries we had and easy to get in touch with. We will definitely be using the NBHL team again in the future.I recently had the pleasure of working with Patrick again after 3 years for our refinance, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Patrick, Jake and the whole team were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and patient as we navigated the whole process. They took the time to understand our needs and preferences, and found us the best suited option. The use of their portals to upload information and documents is a game changer! I would also like to mention the articles in the monthly newsletters are quite in depth and have been incredibly insightful. I have highly recommend Patrick and NBHL to friends, family and colleagues. See you next time! Cheers!
Fantastic support and experience! . My partner and I loved our experience with the Brokers, they were always knowledgeable, supportive and friendly in all communications. We were a little sad to stop our regular catch ups once we had our new home!
I can not recommend Pat and his team enough!They went above and beyond to help us get our loan at the best deal and worked around the clock for usCannot thank then enough!
Pat and the NBHL team are so helpful and easy to deal with. I used them for my first home purchase a few year ago, and recently for a refinance. Both times they were responsive and proactive, and able to answer all our questions in easy to understand terms. I won't hesitate to use them again next time
Pat and his team were fantastic to deal with for the purchase of our first home. Not only were we guided to a great rate, the hassle and stress was minimised greatly! Thanks NBHL, we’re super excited to be in our first home with your assistance.
The best mortgage broker I have dealt with. My application was not straight forward due my partner is on a different visa. I did try few other brokers before I reached out to NBHL, none of them had a correct approach or answers for my situation. But Patrick and team have experience dealing with similar situation to mine, he took time explaining every single possibility and how to approach them.Any issues you come across, they will know how to handle it.Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
I can highly recommend Pat Cranshaw and his team for prompt, honest and professional advice. I very much appreciated Pat's knowledgeable advice on refinancing my home loan . Thank you and best wishes to Pat and his team.
Pat, Jake & their team are absolutely great at securing the best rate. I have been using them for many years now, and always consult them for refinancing every 1-2 years to check what is the best rate available to me. They are able to negotiate much better rates with the banks than if you go to the banks directly.
Without pre-approval, Pat and Jake allowed us to buy ourselves the house we wanted. They managed to get us financial approval with a lender perfect for us in only 6 days.We are very happy with our experience and would recommend others to use NBHL when looking for a fast and easy borrowing experience.
Highly Professional and helpful. I would highly recommend Pat and his team!! Our situation was slightly complex, however they guided us through the process and were able to achieve a successful outcome.Their professionalism and communication with us were of the highest order. I would highly recommend Pat to anyone looking for a homeloan!!
Seamless from start to finish! Pat and his team were amazing. The whole process was so easy and painless. The application process was seamless from the upload of supporting docs right through to the actual signing of loan application and mortgage docs. Pat and his team were there to support us every step of the way with regular contact and simple explanations. I can’t thank them enough.
I can’t thank the team at North Brisbane Home Loans enough for getting my home loan unconditionally approved today after an unexpected last-minute hiccup. From the very first call I had with Pat, talking me through the process and various options, to liaising with Di and Jake through the pre-approval process and then having Fiona on speed dial over the past week or so, answering all my calls and diligently working to get full approval while up against the clock - everything was done promptly and efficiently, with all communications clearly setting out what was required at every stage to make the whole process seem less daunting. Nothing was too much trouble for this friendly, helpful, calm-under-fire, amazing team. Woohoo! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Team work really does make the dream work and NBHL are the dream team. Thanks again!
This is the second time we have used Pat and the team; this most recent venture was exceptionally complicated, daunting and stressful. However Pat and Jake almost made it simple. They responded to my 1000 panicked emails with patience and clarity, never sugar coating anything. All the legalities were made transparent and easy to understand. We are so happy to say as from today, this amazing team of professionals played a very big part in bringing a very traumatic previous 18 months for our family to an end, with our new home purchase becoming unconditional literally hours ago. We can't thank them enough, it's been a long journey, but we made it thanks to them. If there was an option to pop down 10 stars, we wouldn't hesitate. Thanks, NBHL
Very helpful. Patrick was very professional and easy to deal with, and I felt that I could ask all the silly questions during the home loan refinancing process and get real answers and still be taken seriously. He took his time to explain my different options thoroughly, and made the process as smooth as possible once a decision had been made.
10/10 recommend. Pat recently helped my husband and I remortgage our home and the whole process was simple and effortless. I always felt like Pat and his team were working hard for us and we were looped in through the whole process. Would absolutely recommend 🙂
Exceptional Broker and Team - Honest, Prompt and Realistic. Highly recommend Patrick and the Team he works with. Our trusted broker that we go to repeatedly for mortgaging and refinancing. Always honest and seeks products that fit primary needs, plus offers valuable and realistic advice. The only broker we refer our friends and family to! Always in touch with us on time, made refinancing easy, friendly and upfront - every member of the Pat's team answered all our questions and laid out the steps ahead well in advance of settlement. Refinancing couldn't have gone any smoother! Only praise to share. We will continue to use Pat indefinitely.
Excellent customer service, advice and attention to detail.Have now used NBHL for re-financing our home loan and to purchase our investment property. Can highly recommend.
Luke and the team at NBHL were a pleasure to deal with throughout the entire process of buying our first home. Luke was always contactable and made the effort to answer all our queries promptly and simplify the entire journey. As first home buyers we couldn't imagine buying without the help of such a knowledgeable team that has put a great emphasis on customer care.

We had a great experience with North Brisbane Home Loans. Our broker was Luke and he was excellent in listening to what we needed and providing us with loan options that would work for our situation. We liked the videos they provided explaining the product options and recommendations. Being able to watch the videos in our own time was helpful. Fiona was amazing in collating all our information and documents and working with the bank once we did find a house. The communication and customer service was superb. I would recommend NBHL.
The team at North Brisbane Home Loans were phenomenal from the very first point of contact.
