A little overdue, but this is one we wanted to make sure we shared properly.

A couple of weeks ago, we said goodbye to Jaime as she finished up her time with Huddle and took the leap into an exciting new chapter — pursuing a career with Tasmania Police.

Jaime has been part of Huddle from right at the beginning.

She was there through the early days, when we were building the business, finding our feet, working through the chaos and trying to turn an idea into what Huddle is today.

And the truth is, we wouldn’t be where we are without her.

For our clients, Jaime was often the person behind the scenes making things happen, keeping everything moving and making sure people were looked after. But for us, her impact went well beyond Huddle.

Over the past couple of years, Jaime hasn’t just become an important part of our business — she’s become part of our family.

Gem, the kids and I have shared a lot of life with Jaime alongside the journey of building Huddle, and that’s probably the part that’s hardest to put into words. When someone is beside you through such an important chapter of your life and your business, they become much more than someone you work with.

She’ll always have a special place with our family, just as she’ll always have a special place in the Huddle story.

When someone is there during those formative years of a business, their contribution goes well beyond a job title. They help shape the culture, the client experience and ultimately what the business becomes.

Jaime did exactly that.

We’re incredibly grateful for everything she gave to Huddle, and while we’re sad to see her go, we’re equally proud to see her back herself and pursue something she’s always wanted to do.

Thank you for everything, Jaime.

Huddle wouldn’t be what it is today without you, and Gem, the kids and I are pretty bloody lucky that building this business brought you into our lives. ❤️

Good luck with the next chapter — we know you’ll smash it.

Built over years, not overnight. 🏡

I’ve been helping Josh and Megan for a long time now.

I started helping these two pretty early in their journey, when they were getting ready to build their second home. Since then, I’ve had a pretty good front row seat to everything they’ve built together.

And they’ve built a lot.

Multiple projects, multiple homes, plenty of sacrifices and a hell of a lot of work along the way.

Josh has physically built each of their homes, with Megan right there alongside him through all of it — planning, making decisions, keeping things moving and backing the next project.

They’ve continually been prepared to sacrifice a bit today to put themselves in a better position tomorrow.

And now you get to see the other side of it.

They live in a beautiful home they’ve created for themselves, they’ve built genuine financial security, and they’ve given themselves options for whatever comes next.

I think sometimes we see where people end up without seeing everything that happened beforehand.

The weekends spent working.

The money that didn’t get spent.

The projects that seemed to go forever.

And the decision to keep backing themselves and have another crack.

Josh and Megan are a pretty good example of what can happen when two people have a plan, work bloody hard and stick at it for long enough.

It’s been pretty cool having a front row seat to a big part of their journey.

You guys should be extremely proud of what you’ve built. It’s been really amazing watching it all come together. 🏡❤️

From little rug rat to homeowner 🏡

I’ve been best mates with Sam’s older brother Liam for a long time, which means I’ve known Sam since he was a little kid.

You’d think growing up watching Liam and his mates would’ve given Sam a pretty clear blueprint of what not to do…

Unfortunately, he took it more as a tutorial 😂

In typical Burley fashion, Sam eventually packed up and left Tassie to go experience a bit of life, build his career and find his own way.

But somewhere amongst all of that, he also managed to make a few good decisions.

He worked hard. He sacrificed. He saved. And he’s now put himself in a position to buy his first property — on his own.

We’ve been able to help Sam through the whole process from Tassie while he’s over in WA.

And there’s probably a good message in Sam’s story for anyone trying to buy their first home at the moment.

It’s bloody hard to save. It can feel like everyone else is getting ahead while you’re standing still. And sometimes doing the right thing is pretty boring — saying no, putting money away and sticking to the plan.

Keep going.

You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just need to keep chipping away at it.

Eventually the boring stuff turns into something pretty bloody exciting 🏡

Proud of you Sammy.

And once again, another Burley has made a successful transitioned from terror to titleholder 😂

If you’d told us at school that 20 years later Glynn would be buying commercial buildings and I’d be financing them, I reckon we both would’ve laughed at you. 😂

But here we are.

With our 20-year high school reunion coming up next month, the timing of this one is pretty bloody cool.

Glynn and I have stayed mates since school, and somewhere along the way we both ended up building businesses of our own.

He’s a builder, so over the years when I’ve needed something built, fixed or changed at home, Glynn’s been one of the calls.

When he’s needed finance for his business, the call has come back the other way.

This week was a pretty big one — settlement on his own commercial building.

Buying the building your business operates from is a massive milestone. It’s another step forward for what Glynn’s built and something he should be bloody proud of.

Nearly 20 years out of school, it’s pretty cool to look around and see what old mates have gone on to create for themselves.

Congrats Glynn. Awesome result mate.

Now we just need to survive the reunion without too many stories from 20 years ago resurfacing. 🍻

Kurt & Bronte ❤️

9 years ago, I was lucky enough to be a part of Kurt and Bronte buying their very first home.

It was all relatively new for all of us. Kurt and Bronte were first-home buyers, and I was still relatively new to broking myself — learning the landscape and building what would eventually become the business we have today.

Over those 9 years, we’ve always been there when they’ve needed a hand, and they’ve been huge supporters of me along the way. I genuinely can’t thank these guys enough.

A fair bit has changed in that time. There’s been a wedding, the arrival of beautiful little Halle, plenty of life in between… and perhaps most extraordinarily, the slow but steady demise of Kurt’s hair. 😂

And now, another pretty special milestone.

A bigger home for their growing family, with more room to live, grow and create a whole new chapter of memories together.

Buying and selling at the same time is never easy to juggle. Throw a young family into the mix and there’s another layer altogether. But Kurt and Bronte handled it incredibly well and have come away with an amazing result. You guys should be bloody proud.

These are the moments that remind us why we do what we do.

It’s never been about doing a transaction and then saying goodbye. It’s about relationships that grow over the years and being there as our clients move through different stages of their lives.

From helping Kurt and Bronte buy their first home 9 years ago, to helping them into their next family home today.

Pretty bloody cool — and hopefully there are plenty more chapters still to come. ❤️ ‘

THE RESULT

Remember these guys? Two years ago we wrote a post about them. It said:

“We’re still early days, with the next stage being the big one — building something on it! But we’ve got the first box ticked.”

Well… here we are.

The first photo was taken standing on a piece of land in front of a SOLD sign.

There was no development.
There were no completed homes.
There was no guarantee it would all work out.

Just two young families with a plan.

At the time, Connor and Chloe wanted to create more flexibility for their family’s future and get ahead financially.

Caleb and Shea had dreams of building their own home one day and wanted to create a pathway to make that happen.

Like every property project, there were challenges along the way. Rising interest rates, increasing building costs, and plenty of moments where it would’ve been easier to do nothing. Not to mention both families growing, welcoming new additions, and even squeezing a wedding into the mix. But they stuck to the plan.

Today, two years later, they’re standing in front of the finished project with the SOLD sign up once again. Looking back at where it all started, that’s pretty special.

What we love most is that this story isn’t really about property. It’s about having a vision, backing yourself, and staying the course when things get hard.

Because the reality is, most people never get to take the second photo.

The one where the risk paid off.
The one where the sacrifices make sense.
The one where the plan becomes reality.

Proud of you all. Thanks for trusting Huddle to be part of the journey from day one. ❤️

PULLING BACK THE CURTAINS

I used to think building a business would feel exciting all the time. The truth is… a lot of the time it just feels heavy.

The constant thinking.  
The inability to switch off.  
Making sure the team’s okay.  
Making sure clients are looked after.  
Trying to grow something without losing what made people trust you in the first place.

There’s a lot people don’t see behind business owners.

Some days you leave the office mentally exhausted without even really knowing why.

Recently I spent a few days with someone whose opinion I deeply respect. His words stuck with me:

“The balls you’ve got in the air right now, the pace you’re moving — only a couple of businesses I’ve ever seen have matched. But It’s only been 2 years. You can’t avoid growing pains… get used to it.”

FY26 has taught me a lot already.

Business is bloody hard.

This year we changed a lot. Not because we felt like it — because we could see the opportunity in front of us.

To grow properly meant:
better systems,  
better processes,  
more staff,  
more structure,  
more responsibility.

And when you’re building in real time, things can feel messy behind the scenes.

But despite all of that, we’ve still had some amazing wins this year.

The team has stepped up in ways I didn’t expect — personal growth across the board with our existing crew.
2 new  support staff onboarded with a focus on building our efficiency and client experience.
PBs across the business, new relationships formed, and a stronger foundation being built every month.

I used to think feeling stressed, under pressure and uncertain  meant something was wrong. Now I think it probably just means you’re building something real.

Pressure is uncomfortable — but it’s also where resilience gets built.

And I’m starting to realise:
you probably can’t build something meaningful without a bit of chaos along the way.

That’s small business.

Callan and Janelle already had a home.
Then they found THE property.
The one you just know.
So they made the call — let’s go all in.

What they didn’t know was that two months earlier, Callan had made another call that was about to make things a bit complicated.
He’d left his job and gone out on his own as a builder.
Not because the timing was perfect.
Because it was the right move for their future.

They went to their existing bank first.
Sat down. Laid it all out.
And got shut down immediately.
“You’re newly self-employed. Not a chance.”

They tried a broker next.
Same story. Same result.
Two people they were supposed to trust.
Two dead ends.

There’s a specific kind of defeat in that moment.
Because it wasn’t just a loan rejection.
It felt like they were being punished for making the right decision.
He’d backed himself. They’d found their forever home. And now the system was telling them — wrong time, wrong move, too bad.

When they came to Huddle, we didn’t have a different scenario to work with.
Newly self-employed. Same property.
What we had was a different approach to how it was structured and presented.

We got the approval for them. But do you know the funny part about this? It was approved by the same bank that initially told them “not a chance”.

When we called Janelle to give her the good news…
I could hear it in her voice.
It wasn’t just relief about the house.
It was validation Callan backing himself hadn’t cost them their dream property.

That’s the part that stays with me.

Stories like Callan and Janelle’s aren’t rare — they’re becoming more common. Lending is more complex than most people realise, and the gap between bankers and brokers having this exposure is becoming wider and wider.
The right broker is doing it every single day — and that repetition, that exposure, is what gets deals like this across the line.

We’re so glad you picked up the phone and rang us. It’s the reason the answer changed from a no - to a yes and now make plans to build your forever home

HUDDLE HQ

It’s been a big 12 months in the new office. From an empty space and concrete floors we’ve created a warm and inviting place not just for us to work in, but for our clients to feel comfortable coming to.

Not your regular office, and certainly not your regular finance brokers either.
