🚁 A High-Flying Success Story
Mike’s client had big plans and a clear vision — he knew exactly what he wanted in a helicopter: the features, the feel, the capabilities.
What he didn’t have yet? The right aircraft.
But with big-ticket assets like this, timing is everything. So instead of waiting, Mike got ahead of the game.
He teamed up with the buyer’s accountant and secured a major-bank approval early, with extended terms in place. That meant when the perfect chopper came up — there’d be no scramble, no second-guessing.
And when it landed, Mike kicked into gear:
✅ Coordinated with the interstate seller
✅ Locked in an expedited valuation
✅ Managed the back-and-forth with the bank
✅ Finalised loan docs and pushed for early settlement
⏱️ The deadline was tight — but Mike made it happen.
Now the pilot’s taking to the skies in a machine he genuinely loves — and Mike’s proud to have been part of the lift-off. 🙌🚁
Got a mission of your own?
Mike’s the guy who makes it happen — no matter the challenge. zurl.co/98B7p

Tell a Joke Day is tomorrow, but we’ve been cracking up early.
Our team have delivered everything from quick quips to shameless dad jokes — and yes, a few eyebrow-raisers (looking at you, Michelle 👀).
Let us know in the comments who's joke had you giggling and who maybe shouldn't give up their day job 🤣

Hear from our clients ...
Great experience with helping me get the loan I wanted, friendly team highly recommend for anyone looking for a good broker.
Dylan was a pleasure to deal with and went above and beyond to complete my loan.
Dylan Long was a pleasure to deal with. His knowledge in finance and ability to move the deal efficiently was greatly appreciated.
Absolute legends! I never take the time to write reviews but I can’t recommend these guys enough. Quick and so helpful. Went out of their way to find the best option for me when my bank of 30 years said they couldn’t do anything. 5 stars all the way.
I originally did my own research, and got some product offers. As I was unsure if was getting a good deal, I reached out to QPF to see if they could help. They presented me with multiple options that were better than what found myself. Then once I decided to proceed, the whole thing was sorted in under 48 hours. Very smooth and painless and my Broker Dylan was super friendly and helpful.
Sia Punu was the best!! She literally didn’t stop until we get approved. She’s very big help to us, morning or night doesn’t matter to her. All that matters to her is for us to get approved. Really appreciate it.
Thank you for everything you have done for us. Your service has been outstanding and we will definitely call on you again.
The team at QPF were really great. They assessed our needs and delivered an outcome we were really happy with. Will definitely use them again in the future.
Nothing was ever too much for Vanessa and was always happy to chat and assist. Looking for a Broker Vanessa is your person as she will work hard for you.
What a seamless and amazing experience we had with Michelle. So professional, thoughtful and helpful in securing our home loan for us. 110% recommendation! Thanks, Michelle!!
