We were looking to invest in an established home until we were contacted by Phone Homes. Ben patiently explained the benefits of building a new home as opposed to buying an existing one and we signed up that night! The process has been amazing; the way the team navigated the unexpected COVID-related lockdowns and other COVID- related obstacles to minimise delays is a credit to them all! We encountered severe weather events, building material shortages and delays, limited availability of tradesmen due to many of them chasing government grants for home renovators v building new homes and the list goes on. In spite of all the things that were beyond their control, Ben, Jackson, Amelia and Co. maintained a professional and calm response and steered us through to an awesome outcome! Their industry contacts are invaluable! We engaged their recommended insurance broker, building inspector and property manager who has swiftly secured new tenants and a brand new lease that was signed yesterday and we couldn’t be happier! We are so thrilled and are already talking about doing it all again!! We’re hooked!! Thanks team!! 🙂

PhoneHomes – This is a company that provide a Unique service for people that need help with property investments. Alot of people struggle for a variety reasons why they fall by the wayside in trying to purchase an investment property, some examples; inability to locate positive geared property, purchased negative geared property in areas with no substantial organic growth (Note: I was one of these people, yes I tried but didn’t achieve my Goal) or bought a property with the intention to renovate but due to time & knowledge factors the end goal was never achieved. This is where PhoneHomes shine, I was sceptical at first but after mths of procrastination I decided to make contact & setup a mtg with Ben who convinced me that it was the right decision & yes I wish I had committed 12 – 18mths earlier. Their processes are simple but efficient when sourcing the properties, they have an exhaustive property buying checklist where at least 90% of the criteria must be met otherwise they walk away, its all about the figures with no emotional attachment. If the figures stack up like ie rental return, low vacancy rates, infrastructure government spending, housing shortages etc. then its an area they will target with confidence. The best part of the PhoneHomes service I found is how professional & friendly they are with their members, they take care in making the whole investment a pleasurable experience by providing a Complete End to End Service. They provide the resources like the Finance people, the Solicitors, you are assigned a dedicated PA & they have an Open door policy that you can contact anytime if you have questions or issues you require answers to, they just hold your hand throughout & you can sit back and relax. I’m like many of PhoneHomes satisfied clients, if you are looking for a No fuss service with all of the Bells & whistles then I thoroughly Recommend these guys. Thank you Ben & team, Keep up the Excellent service, I’m looking to my next investment. 😊

In my first review, a year ago I finished off by saying, it was the first of many (investment properties). Well here we are again, just settled on Investment Property #2 with Phones Homes!! All within 2.5 years! What an incredible journey! I can’t thank you all enough for your guidance, assistance, and support throughout this process! You make everything look and sound so easy! Thank you Ben, Jackson, Amelia and the whole team at Phone Homes. Looking forward to working with you again and making another dream come true!

Initially we, my wife and I, were hesitant to make a commitment with Phone Homes. They promised the world and we just didn’t believe that it could be as easy as Team outlined. We did some research, talked to various people and came to the conclusion that we would take an educated risk and jumped on board with Phone Homes. We both felt exited but nervous as we had never made an investment like this before. Pleasingly, the process was as easy as the Team promised and there was really no risk – just reward. Thank you Phone Homes our future financial position is much stronger.

We have just purchased our first investment property with Phone Homes and couldn’t be happier. From the first consultation we could see this was the best way for us to start our property portfolio. They have truly exceeded expectations and we can’t wait to add to our investment portfolio. Couldn’t recommend Phone Homes more highly.

I work away a lot and the thought of owning an investment property and finding someone reputable to manage it, seemed way too difficult and time consuming. I didn’t have the patience or ambition to contemplate a second property. That was before I discovered PhoneHomes. These guys do all the hard work, so that you don’t have to. And I mean everything. I barely had to lift a finger. From finding the right property, and finding the right tenants. And the bonus is, it’s all positive geared. Which means that you get more money in your pocket. I’m certainly looking forward to my second investment property, with the help of these guys.

Geez, What a team to take on your financial future.We are 52-56. We commenced our journey with Phone Homes approximately 12 months ago. We have worked for over 35 years together with still owing a mortgage and wondering how we are going to progress into retirement. We have always wanted to get into the property market, but put our kids first. Since Ben and his amazing team have come on board, within 12 months, we are looking into buying our 3rd investment property. At first you are apprehensive with your first property, however you get to know the professionalism and knowledge that this team have in purchasing property, it’s a ‘no brainer’. We are looking at purchasing our third property and a closer date to a secure retirement. We don’t need to do anything further as we make money whilst we sleep and not work. BOTTOM LINE – the properties Jackson has purchased within the past 12 months have appreciated greatly. We are so stoked. Thank you to Ben and the team, you’re amazing!

A couple of years ago Phone Homes contacted us but unfortunately we weren’t in a position to look at investing in an investment property. Phone Homes promised to call back in two years to see whether our position had changed. To our surprise as promised Phone Homes contacted us again and gave us the opportunity to have a full presentation about how they could help us invest in our own future. The team at Phone Homes went out of their way to make the whole process smooth and as stress free as possible. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of the Phone Homes team we now have our first rental property with the hope of more to come in the future. A big thank you to the whole team for all the hard work and effort you put into helping secure our future. If you are looking at purchasing your first investment property we highly recommend talking to the team at Phone Homes to get you started. Thanks, Chris & Sharon.

Many thanks to Ben, Jackson and the team for finding me a great investment property, but even more for the time and effort needed to work out the best finance option for my circumstances. It look a while, but we got there in the end. I appreciate your advice and help. Update: The team (mainly Ben, Amelia, Jackson and Pamela) have helped me to buy a second wonderful investment property. This time was different – they’ve guided me through setting up a self-managed superannuation fund and then purchasing the property using my super. It was a very quick process – less than three months from my deciding to go ahead with it to property settlement. Many thanks to everyone for all their work, guidance and support – I wouldn’t have been able to do it without PhoneHomes and the others they bring onboard (for super management, insurance, legal advice, property management, etc.).

The team at Phone Homes (Ben, Jackson & Amelia) are an amazing team. Without them I would not be in the great position I am in now. Quality all the way from start to finish. They know their stuff. Building during Covid was tough due to delays etc. However, they always kept up with the communication. In fact, I have now utilised their service twice and will continue to do so if the need arises again in the future. If you are considering engaging the Phone Homes team, my recommendation would be to take the plunge as you won’t regret it. Thank you for being the Phone Homes Team.

Phone Homes are ‘next level’. You get a call from Ben who ‘runs the show’ and at first you become apprehensive, until he explains the process. We have worked hard for 30+ years, ready to retire in the next 10-15 years, wondering how we will do this. Ben and his team ‘click in’ and within a year we have purchased 2 properties. Within 8 months we are already in front, making a profit. Our second property we brought for $712K and settles today, has been estimated at $775K with a great rental return.HUGE THANKS TO JACKSON. Seriously, this has taken a fair bit of worry out of our lives as we move towards retirement. THANK YOU PHONE HOMES – GOLD!!!

Ben, Jackson, Amelia and the team are nothing short of amazing. At first we were a touch apprehensive in purchasing a property over the phone, however let us assure you, if you get the opportunity to travel the journey with Phone Homes, it is an opportunity of a lifetime and I could not recommend the team highly enough. Of course you need to do a bit of groundwork in obtaining documents, however Phone Homes guide you through the whole process of obtaining your own investment property. Ben and his team are a thoroughly professional unit who have vast knowledge of the industry and provide unbelievable support at every step of the way, always responding quickly to any questions or concerns. The only regret we have is not doing this earlier in our lives. Thank you to the Phone Homes team for assisting us in obtaining our first investment property and enhancing our financial security. Darren and Tracey

I purchased my first investment property a year and a half ago with Phone Homes. From the first time I spoke to the team I felt confident I was going to be looked after. The team is very knowledgeable and the whole process was smooth from day 1. They litteraly look after everything so it was a really easy process. I am already reaping great rewards form owning my own investment thanks to Phone Homes. Highly recommend.

After the initial phone call and zoom meeting with Phone homes we were quite happy with how the process sounded. Ours was quite a ride as we were refinancing and selling our home throughout the process but Pamela made the experience very easy and with Ben, Jackson and Amelia always on hand to answer any questions, the entire process was so easy! We are so happy we took the phone call that day, Phone Homes has changed our lives and we are ever so grateful!
