My Money House handles home loans, investment property finance, and personal loans across Perth and SA, with a team that excels at guiding first-time property investors through complex purchases. However, recent reviews reveal stark inconsistency: strong initial service and expert staff like Jack, Jayde, and James can turn into complete silence once money is received, with clients reporting unresolved refunds, construction delays of 16+ months, and management who do not return calls or emails.

Over 5-8 years, clients consistently describe being heard before advised. Pat, Shane, and their team treat each person's circumstances as unique, explain trade-offs honestly, and follow through on complex issues like superannuation strategy and estate planning without the hard sell or rush. Fees are acknowledged but matched by depth of attention and results that shift how people see their financial future. Several clients specifically mention moving from hesitation to confidence in retirement planning after working with the team. The firm acts with integrity across mortgage broking, investment management, and self-employed advice, earning loyalty measured in decades rather than transactions.
