Earlier this year, newly weds Rob and Julie Taylor approached Illawarra Home Loans for assistance and advice about how to arrange finance for construction of their first home.

"We'd made the decision to build our own home, but didn't have a clue where to start. We were introduced to Illawarra Home Loans through Rob's boss, who finances a lot of business equipment through them. We knew they had a good reputation, and after several weeks of talking to the banks without much luck, we thought we'd give them a shot. It couldn't have turned out to be a better decision."

"While we were finalising our construction plans with council, we didn't really have a lot of time on our hands. Illawarra Home Loans' team was fantastic. They helped us out with every thing; arranging the First Home Owners Grant, arranging insurance and they came to visit us if we couldn't make it in to their offices - even after hours and on weekends. They provide a level service that you just don't get from the banks."

As for helping out with the finer details...

"Illawarra Home Loans' people were great! They kept us informed throughout the application process and even helped us through settlement - they could always explain the legal jargon in ways we could understand."

"We're really greatful for the help Illawarra Home Loans gave us. We'd be lying if we said it wasn't a stressful time, but they were with us every step of the way - and these days that really counts!"
