Smartline helped young English couple Ed and Frances Davis own their Australian dream.

“Smartline's service was great. Our broker would visit after work, was thorough and basically did everything no-one else wanted to do," says Ed.

“Smartline showed us how much we could really afford, how much deposit we would need and took the time to show us how we could get the home we wanted and within our means.”

The Davis’ are now proud owners of a three-bedroom home. “We wanted to live close to the beach to make the most of the weather and the Australian lifestyle,” said Ed.
