Mansour has been nothing but spectacular during the entire process of buying our first home. He was very easy to contact, either through online appointment scheduling or direct messaging. As first home buyers, my partner and I were quite anxious about the biggest purchase of our lives, but Mansour guided us in a detailed and reassuring manner every step of the way.Mansour's responsiveness and ability to explain each step clearly made us feel secure throughout the process. He quickly adjusted our loan options based on our changing circumstances. For instance, when we needed to increase our desired loan amount on a Saturday afternoon because we found a home we fell in love with, Mansour called us within minutes to provide an independent assessment and guidance on how to adjust our loan. His commitment to his clients, even on weekends, sets him apart from most agents.We're fortunate to have been able to buy our own home, and Mansour was the key to making it possible. You can count on his sincerity and agility to help you through the mortgage process.

My gosh what an amazing broker Kylie from Soren is. We were getting a crap response from our usual bank and decided to switch to a broker. Kylie achieved, in a couple of days, what the old bank was taking weeks to do. Cannot thank Kylie and the team enough for getting our mortgage secure and enabling us to land our dream home. Kylie is professional, prompts and knowledgeable. Amazing!!!!!!

Mansour helped me buy my first home and was such a fantastic broker. I could tell you how timely he is, how quick he is to pick up the phone and answer all your dumb questions etc. But the real reason I’m writing this review is because he actually cares about you.

We have been working with Soren Financial for years now and can’t recommend them enough. They found deals that other brokers couldn't, and the turnaround time was incredibly quick. Their professionalism and willingness to answer all our questions made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We recently refinanced our home looking for a better deal and once again they exceeded our expectations.

If you are looking for a mortgage broker with exceptional service and expertise, I highly recommend Bianca Mamo at Soren Financial. Bianca took the time to understand my financial situation and support me through the process of securing a loan, which was daunting for me as a single mother. Her commitment to helping me understand the complexities of mortgage options and finding the best rates made the process as smooth and stress-free as it could be.

Brilliant experience with Mansour, Alvin and team. My plans changed several times as I was overseas, on top of that I run a business, so there were various options and nuances to consider.

My wife and I used Soren Financial in our most recent purchase of a home in Melbourne. Mansour's patience and flexibility with us as we changed our plans from purchasing a rental property to owner occupied and back again several times was immense, considering the additional background work we created for him! His support and guidance throughout the process was amazing, with short notice changes to prospective properties and our own financial situation managed with quick turnaround times at his end (and the banks!), culminating in a successful and extremely short settlement period!We have happily recommended Mansour and his team to our friends, and will be using him for our next purchase.

The Soren team are some of the best brokers I have dealt with.

I am very happy with the service I have received from Mansour at Soren Financial through my recent house hunting journey. As a mortgage broker Mansour has a wealth of knowledge of the field and is open and available to imparting that knowledge whenever I had a question, taking the time to explain and offer both suggestions and critiques. Sometimes this was at very short notice to resolve any queries I had which is very much appreciated.Mansour and the team at Soren Financial were professional, timely and any hiccups outside of Soren Financial's control in that process were promptly resolved, including re-valuations as necessary. The process was well explained, lending organised without much fuss and settlement went smoothly.Would be my first point of contact the next time I'm ready to transact on a house in the future. Would highly recommend - give Mansour a call and you'll see why.

Robert Williams-Pate

Mansour is highly recommended. As a first home buyer, I had many questions about finance and what I can I could do to get into the market.

Simply Fantanstic serviceI came by Mansour and his team through searching on the web and though why not, Turn's out it was the best decision for finding my house and learning everything related to getting my house, As a first home buyer, I was scared as the market is very difficult and also getting the best possible loan for me was impossible without countless hours of work. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and really appreciate what he has done for me.

jake mc

04:39 03 Nov 21

Mansour and Mara were an absolute pleasure to work with. We had an unusual situation that they mitigated with ease, providing expert advice and constant feedback during what most would agree is a very stressful time! The team at Soren Financial were with us every step of the way, and got us the best deal which we are very grateful for with an excellent rate. Thanks again to Mansour and Mara, and my partner and I will be using their services for any future purchases. 10/10, and have already recommended to friends and family.

Will Cox

01:47 20 Oct 21

Very dedicatedFrom the beginning Mansour was very understanding of our financial position, but there was never any question of us not getting what we were after. When things didn't look good for us, he didn't let us give up, and we got the property we wanted. Couldn't have done it without him.

Redmond Hamel

06:14 30 Aug 21

A steady guide for uncertain timesWe engaged Mansour Soltani as a broker midway through 2021 during times of increasing restrictions. This is important to raise early because COVID restrictions impacted all parts of the purchasing process - from the banks to inspections and everywhere in between.Despite the difficulties of engaging remotely, Mansour was able to offer a highly active and personal touch during a process which can certainly be stressful at the best of times.I cannot speak highly enough about Mansour's attention to detail, engagement and knowledge of both the process and the current marketing offerings which he conveyed clearly and always with his friendly nature which became the hallmark of the process.As a first home buyer, there was certainly a reasonable amount of 'peace of mind' assurances that were sought throughout the process and Mansour was always quick to address and assuage any concerns which arose throughout the process which spanned delayed settlements, cooling-off periods and both specific and general queries about the lender and the process.I could not have asked for more throughout the process and would recommend Mansour Soltani to any prospective home buyer.

Hong Minh Le

Ben Novak

05:19 27 Apr 21

In my experience, Mansour has been very professional and reliable. From the start, Mansour promptly provided information on suitable lenders and discussed with me the pros and cons for each option. Throughout the process, Mansour has been in touch on a regular basis, guided me through the pitfuls and provided advice on dealing with the lenders. Level of service has been above expectation in that he would go above and beyond to manage my anxieties through the process, whether it be presenting questions to the lenders solicitors or gathering information outside of normal office hours including Saturday and Sunday evenings and running through the complexities of the financials. Well recommended!

Alex Scriven

05:45 22 Feb 21

Mansour and his team are extremely knowledgeable, super responsive and they go above and beyond to get you where you want to be. At every step in the process I felt well-informed and in good hands. Very happy to put my name on a recommendation for these guys.
