These guys contacted us 5 years ago. We were not in a position to do anything, so we asked them to call back in a few years. They did. We had been considering various investment options, and their timing was impeccable. Always wary about such contacts, we looked at the presentation. What was shown aligned with our objectives. We decided to take the risk and jump on board. The approval process was great. The Phone Homes team maintained good communication, keeping us informed along each step of the process. Once approved, it was simply a matter of waiting. After a few months we were contacted and informed of a property available in Queensland. We decided to purchase, and that is when things really started moving. The speed and efficiency that everything was organised was incredible. Within 30 days (including 4 public holidays) we were the owners of a new investment property. Kudos to the Phone Home team. Without their assistance we wouldn’t be where we are now.

Quick but much needed shout out to Phone Homes for their support and help purchasing an investment property. The staff have been amazing, great communicators, trustworthy and professional. I predominantly dealt with Ben and Amelia and cannot say thank-you enough. Really was a simple and easy process because of your knowledge and guidance. You made the process easy

To Ben, Jackson, Amelia and Pamela, thank you very much for making my first investment property an absolute breeze to go through. I would highly recommend Phone Homes to anyone who wants to get into the property market. Once I build my equity up I’ll be using these guys again for my next investment property. Bring on the bulls lads😎

We could not fault the PhoneHomes Team. For “First Time” Investors, no question was too trivial, and responses given where thorough, and in a timely fashion. When questions came up about the Pest Inspection, they went above and beyond to make sure everything was OK before we proceeded. Cannot Highly Recommend this Team enough if you are thinking about jumping in the “Investment Waters”.

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.

The team at Phone Homes has been amazingly helpful in guiding us on our first personal investment property purchase, by finding us a great property, organising a well structured finance solution and assisting us in our cashflow management through the procurement and build phases. The outcome will be a great step in setting up our family financial security.

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!! 🙂

We were contacted by Phone Homes about 2 years ago in the midst of covid & were unsure whether we should consider an investment with so much uncertainty going on. But we thought we would see what options were available, thinking it would be unlikely for us to proceed…however, the team found us an opportunity too good to pass up. They found us a new property in a developing area that would be built in no time…or so we all thought! No one could have predicted the challenges so many would face in the building industry. And while the build has been delayed, the team at Phone homes has supported us through the process going above & beyond to provide updates & guidance. It’s with great excitement we are almost there & will have our new place tenanted soon. Thanks to the great team at Phone Homes.

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!

We recently completed our first experience with PhoneHomes and while not perfect overall due to lengthy and continual delays in construction and site management through COVID, and the resourcing and materials issues that presented, Ben, Amelia and the team did the best they could in very trying circumstances for everyone. The time from sign up to property handover, ended up being around 2.5 years but they provided monthly updates, listened and understood our position whenever we needed to talk about the issues happening and always went out of their way to lessen the impacts on us when they were able to. Customer service was exemplary, they were accessible, returned calls and emails when they said they would, and managed the situation very well. So, although the entire project definitely had shortcomings, PhoneHomes did a great job and we would use them again.

We are moments away from owning our very first investment property… a huge thank you to Ben, Amelia and Jackson from Phone Homes who have done a wonderful job in securing this property for us in sunny QLD! Mark took a drive past when visiting his mum a few weeks ago and said it looks fabulous! The service from the crew at Phone Homes has been amazing, keeping us updated with progress and dealing with the big things construction throws at you 😊 Totally recommend Phone Homes and hope to utilise their assistance with the next one 🥂🍾

I engaged the services of Phone Homes to increase my posture in the housing market. My employment situation has its complications and I’m on the upper side of my 50’s, so I was nervous about whether Phone Homes would be able to get me into a suitable positively geared investment property. Even while travelling in the USA for over 4 weeks, Phone Homes communicated with me and continued to work towards finding the right property. The house we wanted is in a part of Brisbane which was strategically selected for it’s growth potential. Settlement occurred yesterday and we are more than happy with the result. The staff are great. No high pressure and very personable to deal with. If you need someone to take care of all the hassle and get you the right property, I have no hesitation in recommending Phone Homes.

Just wanted to say a BIG thank you to PhoneHomes in securing our very fist Investment Property! A few years again PhoneHomes contacted us but unfortunately we were not in a position to even look at investing in fact things were not not looking promising. As promised PhoneHomes contacted us again, gave us a thorough presentation and as they say the rest is history!!! We would be lying if we said we weren’t a little hesitant but we aren’t shy in taking risks so we pursued our journey with PhoneHomes. We are so glad we did, in a very short time we found ourself with an investment property (which we never thought would be possible) and to make it even better the process was so smooth and as promised everything was well researched and everything just fell into place. Thank you to Ben who persisted and was patient with us in the beginning, to Jackson who had to navigate some unexpected hurdles during COVID, Amelia for always keeping us updated and of course Pamela who has been so amazing in making the finance side of things less stressful. Can’t wait to do it all again!!

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. 😊

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.

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.
