OwnHome Reviews 

Everyone we interacted with - Jarrad and Claudia most especially - helped us in building our confidence in the entire journey of finding our first home. We didn't realise how much effort is actually needed, parties we need to engage with... until we were deep into the process and we can only be thankful we had them throughout everything! Otherwise, would've been such an overwhelming and quite scary experience if it was just us putting together the bits and pieces.

They've been amazing throughout the journey and helpful, very responsive, ready to provide inputs...it's been great engaging with the team!

The system and team work great if you pass the eligibility criteria. I was on boarded quickly and the whole team worked hard with me to get me to secure my first property without problem (scanning, visit, negotiating, setting up finances, settling etc)
You end up with an additional loan for the deposit booster so be sure to do the maths and that the format can work for you!

OwnHome is an excellent option for families that are low on the initial deposit for their property who otherwise have a good income to repay the mortgage.Ben from OwnHome is an amazing guy. He is such a great listener and completely understands the customer’s needs. Wishing the team all the best!

From day one my husband and I came across an amazing team who guided and supported us on every step of the way. Friendly and caring, they made sure we secured the best possible property without overpaying. Customer service 11/10.
The service itself is just genius! Perfect for anyone who can afford the repayments on a mortgage but struggles with saving for the deposit. Also, no having to pay LMI is a no-brainer. A very smooth process overall :)

We are so thankful to the team at OwnHome for literally making our dreams come true! From our first interaction with Max, through to working with Jarrad, Bridget and the whole rest of the team - everything has been throughly explained, any question was never an issue and they were available for a chat to talk through anything needed. Having Jarrad act as our buyers agent through the negotiation process was amazing, he’s saved us thousands while ensuring we secured our dream home. We settle in a bit over a week and then get to move. This is honestly something we considered we might never be able to do a while ago!! We appreciate everything OwnHome has done in guiding us and providing the facility of the deposit boost loan - now our boys can grow up in our own home ❤️

Buying a house is inherently pretty daunting, but somehow Jarrad and OwnHome just made this process easy. They are the ultimate professionals and instill confidence and got us the place we wanted smoothly. We will back.

Jarrad and Claudia, buyers' agents from Ownhome, have been invaluable in my journey to homeownership.

Before I partnered with them, I was navigating the competitive real estate market alone. Dealing with complex agent interactions and finding the right property was challenging.

Once Ownhome came into the picture, they secured my first home within 8 weeks. Their support and guidance throughout the process was immense. Their assistance was invaluable, truly worth its weight in gold. Through all the ups and downs, they provided enduring support and knew exactly what to do. I couldn’t recommend enough

We have been looking for a PPOR for 7 months now. We have done the journey alone for that 7 months and never really got into a state where we were confident enough to do a formal offer ( due to various reason mostly around doing own due diligence and overthinking things )

After 7 months, we decided to contact OwnHome and the team has been amazing! From pre approval to the exciting process of finding a property, initial talks with agents and the teams own valuation of the property, it has all been a pleasant experience!

What was really the highlight though is the buyers advocate service! We have worked with Jarrad as the buyer's advocate and he has been absolutely splendid to work with. He handled all the difficult conversations and meetings with vendors and conveyancers especially around the renegotiation of the purchase price after finding issues with building and pest.

He is very knowledgable and responsive and has been comforting to work with as you know you are represented by an absolute professional. This helped us especially as he handled all the difficult stuff like the initial offer, negotiation with agents, managing cooling off, managing b&p and due diligence checks, and re-negotiation on price after defects found on the property.

There will be fees involved of course on top of your loan amount but in our situation, this has already paid off by two folds through the reduction of purchase price and all the due diligence check the team has done that was part of the initial fees already.

If you are an overthinker and need professionals to address thoughts running around your head, highly recommend the service OwnHome team provides! We wouldnt have been able to purchase without them!

Went from thinking we were 2 years away from buying to meeting Own Home and buying our dream property in a month. These guys are absolute pros and Australia’s best kept secret. Such attention and empathy throughout the process.

A massive thank you to the entire OwnHome team, especially Jarrad, Bridget and Claudia for helping us achieve our goal of home ownership!

The service of guiding us (and keeping us sane!) through the house hunting, valuation, offer and settlement process has meant we landed a property we love at a great price.
I absolutely recommend getting in touch with OwnHome if you meet the income criteria but still feel like putting together a home deposit keeps creeping further out of reach.

We enlisted OwnHome to help us buy a property as this felt like the best option with not having the 20% deposit. Jarrad and Bridgette and the rest of the team were great in keeping us grounded navigating the crazy Perth market. They helped us put in offers on multiple properties and telling us which ones weren’t worth the offers agents were receiving saving us from paying too much. After several months of trying they finally got us a property and was probably the best one overall that we looked (we looked at well over a 100 properties). From there they handled all the other tasks and sorted the settlement agents, valuations etc. Highly recommend OwnHome if you are struggling to get a deposit together in this ever increasing Australian property market.

The team at ownhome is amazing. They made a dream that we didn’t think was achievable come true. They made the whole buying experience so easy and support you all along the journey. We had a whole team at our disposal who was able to answer any of our questions. This is a great option for anyone who are wanting to buy their first home. Thank you team ownhome and especially Jarrad.

The service from start to finish was very professional, complete and more importantly transparent. I was uncertain as to whether this was indeed a real option for me and through the process it became clear it was and i would recommend people take advantages of it. Thanks

Own Home & Co helped me to secure my own property. It was really my pleasure associating with them. The process from the selecting a property till settlement has been as smooth as sail. Thanks guys for all the guidance and care :).

We recently purchased thru Ownhome and are happy with the process we went thru from start to finish. Jarrad, Bridget and Claudia were pleasant to work with and provided great outcome.

Almost close to giving up that special dream of first home, we came across OwnHome and the rest is history and now, we are homeowners. They've been absolute legends through and through to help us with the process, negotiation and purchase.

Waste of time unless you have no HECs debts and earn over $180-200k. We're so over literally paying years and years in high rent per week to fund someone else's mortgages only to be told we can't afford to pay a mortgage with this service who claim to be different and understand that not everyone makes over $180k.

Ownhome was the best decision I have made so far. Firstly I was lucky enough to deal with Tim, who is one of the founders of this business. He gave me his personal mobile number and would schedule meetings outside hours to help answer my questions and get me started.
Once I got pre-approval I was put in touch with a team of 3 people, Jarrad, Claudia and Bridget. All of which played their individual role in helping me make the right decision on the property by negotiating on my behalf with real estate agents, conveyancers and building inspections. I simply would have been lost without these guys.

Couldn’t recommend these guys more highly

If you have a family income of less than 200k, don’t waste your time, you will get knocked back immediately. Not their fault I guess, just a symptom of a broken system.

Excellent customer service and very professional!!

We have our first home through OwnHome, it's a very exciting moment. Very graceful for the helps from Jarrad, Claudia and Bridget. They ease the stressful home buying process by checking all the documents with extra service like home and pest inspection. As well as the negotiations with the agents and the developers, they guarantee the best price for us.

Highly recommended!!!
