As first home buyers, we were overwhelmed by the process. Cesar at Clarity Home Loans made the experience smooth and stress-free. He patiently explained every step, answered all our questions, and provided clear, unbiased advice. His excellent communication skills and prompt responses were invaluable. We highly recommend Cesar and Clarity Home Loans to anyone, especially first home buyers.

We engaged Clarity with our new house purchase - including navigating the world of bridging loans. Jared Parsons was absolutely incredible. He guided us, has excellent communication and nothing was too much or too hard. He held our hand and gave invaluable, ethical advice about what would suit our circumstances the best. I look forward to working with them going forward for the long term.

For many of us - especially those of us of a certain age, and especially at the moment - the idea of owning your first home can seem like an unrealisable and unrealistic dream. Worse still, if you’re not from a family of canny property investors your only model for how to go about even looking to buy one comes from parents or family members who secured their house decades ago and have only antiquated advice to share. What do you do if you want to buy a home today but have no idea in the modern world how to go about getting a mortgage or even where to start?Fortunately, that’s where Clarity come in.Rob Garth took us under his wing and turned what would have been a bewildering away of options into a series of simple and intelligible choices that meant applying for a mortgage was easy and well within our understanding - and means. He was there to help every step of the way while being friendly, approachable and reassuringly expert at every point that we knew nothing about.Rob’s expertise and stewardship was not just invaluable to us - it was priceless. Which makes it even more remarkable that everything he and Clarity did for us was totally free.Friends who had bought properties had highly recommended we use a mortgage broker when it was our turn. For my part, I’d recommend Clarity and Rob Garth to absolutely anyone who asked. You couldn’t be in better hands.

I had a pretty good variable rates with my old bank but thought I will go in and check if I can get better rates. Not only I received informed advice but Josh Shea also helped me getting better interest rates with offset. The whole process of moving banks is so easy and fast. I’m very happy with Clarity service and would highly recommend them for anyone purchasing or refinancing.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Shanice as our mortgage broker! From the very first conversation, it was clear that she was not only professional and knowledgeable but also incredibly friendly and approachable, which made a world of difference for us as first-time homebuyers. Navigating the mortgage process can be overwhelming, but Shanice guided us every step of the way with patience and expertise, making everything feel like a breeze. She took the time to answer all of our questions, explain every detail, and truly listened to what we needed. Her calm demeanor and positive attitude were a breath of fresh air in what can otherwise be a stressful journey. We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a mortgage broker - she is truly exceptional! Thank you, Shanice, for making our dream of homeownership a reality!

I couldn’t recommend Guy Curtis more. Guy from Clarity Homeloans helped me with the purchase of my apartment, and I couldn’t have asked for better assistance throughout the process. He was incredibly friendly, supportive, and responsive, walking me through the different types of finance available and listening carefully to my goals. He took extra time to answer my questions, making sure I felt informed and confident every step of the way. I was able to secure financing quickly, which helped me secure my dream property. I highly recommend Guy and Clarity for anyone looking for dedicated, thorough, and professional service.

We were referred to Clarity by a friend and we can 100 percent say they didn't miss a beat. Our broker was Shannon O'Neil and he made the whole process so smooth and simple. He definitely did all the hard work for us, we are very appreciative for Shannon's help in procuring a mortgage and now owning our first home. If your thinking about purchasing a home or just have questions, I highly recommend speaking with somebody from Clarity.

Working with Arman at Clarity Financial has been an outstanding experience. He recently assisted us in refinancing three loans within a complex trust and company structure. Thanks to his exceptional market knowledge and negotiation skills, we secured below-market interest rates that we hadn't thought possible.Arman's persistence and unwavering advocacy on our behalf truly set him apart. He navigated the complexities of our financial situation with ease and kept us informed every step of the way. Without his expertise, achieving this remarkable outcome would have been impossible.We wholeheartedly recommend Arman to anyone seeking a mortgage broker who delivers exceptional results. His professionalism and dedication make him an invaluable asset in any financial endeavour.

Our experience with Shanice from Clarity Home loans was exceptional. Shanice was welcoming, knowledgeable and thoroughly helpful. Throughout the entire experience Shanice had open and clear communication and had immediate follow up. As first home buyers, she was able to put any concerns we had at ease with her professionalism and friendly demeanour. A 5 star rating doesn't do our experience justice. Amazing.....Thank you for all your efforts and making it such a positive experience for us.Rosie and Ryan

I have a complex Trust and Company setup for my business and when I need help to refinance I use Arman Yazarloo, Senior Mortgage Broker from Clarity Financial. He is my favourite professional by far, he is super organised, and he can navigate the most complex and challenging situations with ease. By far, Arman is the most connected broker in Canberra and you would be giving yourself a massive advantage by using his expertise. I have recommended lots of people to Arman over the years and he has also delivered them the same results, care and attention and excellent loans with great rates. Five stars for Arman and the team at Clarity, and keep up the good work!

Guy Curtis is exceptional at what he does! My partner and I went to him to see where we were in terms of purchasing our first home. We had been to 4 other brokers and had very ordinary experiences with them. Guy regularly checked in and reached out to us through out our lengthy search for the perfect property, answering all our questions in the easiest way to understand. Couldn’t recommend seeing him for all your financial pursuits!

Like many others I had a great experience with Clarity and Mortgage Broker Matthew Rastar. As a first home buyer, it was great to be walked through the process at the first meeting including what would happen and who does what when. I didn't feel pushed towards one lender over another and this was what I was looking for when I engaged Clarity.Matthew was very responsive, including when I needed a quick answer on the weekend to be able to put in an offer on a property I ultimately purchased. He was very proactive with following up with the property valuation process, real estate agent and lender once the offer was accepted, and kept me in the loop on progress so I never needed to chase him for information. This was especially appreciated, as there are so many things to think about during a moving process already! I'd highly recommend engaging Matthew.

I would highly recommend Clarity Home Loans, especially their broker, Shanice. I have engaged with Shanice numerous times over the years and I would have been completely lost if it wasn’t for her support, knowledge, professionalism and advice. I’ve referred several people to Shanice for these reasons and will continue to do so. Thank you again for everything Shanice, you are absolutely perfect in every way possible.

My wife and I met with Matthew Raster from Clarity to help with our home loan. Matthew was amazing from beginning to end, he was very patient, very good at explaining all the options we had, and gave frank advice.Furthermore, we found ourselves in a unique situation when our situation changed, and we needed to change our loan with less than 2 weeks until settlement. Matt and the team at Clarity went above and beyond, ensuring we were still good to go and filled us with confidence that things were going to be ok.If you're looking for a broker, go to Matthew at Clarity. I cannot recommend him enough!!

I highly recommend Matthew to anyone in need of a mortgage broker. His professionalism, knowledge, and commitment to clients are truly top-notch.

We highly recommend Shanice from clarity home loans. She was very helpful and informative. We appreciated how quick she was to respond and assist with any queries we had throughout our construction loan. Thank you Shanice!
Alright Guy
1727652773
We have worked with Guy at Clarity Home Loans twice now. One to construct and one to remortgage. Guy is well across the varying policies lenders have in place to deal with consolidation, novated leases, and construction loans, and was able to connect us with lenders that offered the greatest chance of success.Each time, despite the odd speed bump, Guy has been able to navigate the complex world of lending and problem-solve the sometimes vexing requests from the lenders.I'd definitely recommend Guy to anyone that wants a committed, knowledgeable, and honest broker to help them get into their new home.

My husband and I used Clarity homeloans in 2011 and had a great experience with Mark. This time around we were superbly looked after by Josh Shea. His communication was excellent. He went above and beyond for us, making sure everything went smoothly, even when things weren’t as straightforward as we’d originally hoped. If we could give him more stars we would. Very happy with Clarity and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Clarity loans was suggested to me by a friend when speaking of a first home purchase.I was soon acquainted with Mathew Rastar who was great at breaking down the jargon and held my hand through the process from start to finish and I will definitely be seeking out his services in the future.

In 2019 we found a house that we liked and made an offer. The sellers agreed to accept the offer as long as we had our finance approved by the end of the week. We talked to Guy at Clarity who went out of his way to make it happen, he pre-empted issues the bank would have, contacted us out of hours when he thought of something, kept us up to date throughout the whole process and we got the finance approved at 11:00am on Friday. We were happy and the sellers happy as they didn't have to have another open house that weekend.A win win for both the buyer and seller that was made possible by both the experience and hard work that Guy bought to the process. I would highly recommend him.5 years later in 2024 we have now bought another house and used Guy again. This time it was more complicated due to the seller creating issues during settlement. Guy was also fantastic making what seemed extremely difficult easy. I am very glad we used him.
