About Best Life Loans
Meet Anita Morrison, your Bundaberg mortgage broker.
An accredited mortgage and finance broker who’s actually run a business, and built Best Life Loans to be one trusted broker for every stage of regional life.
Anita’s Story
From running a trade business to running the numbers
Before Anita ever wrote a loan, she ran her own trade business in regional Queensland. She knows what it’s like to chase invoices, ride out a quiet season, and have a bank treat a perfectly healthy business like a risk simply because the income didn’t fit a neat little box.
She also brings close to two decades of formal industry experience, having worked in financial planning, as a mortgage broker, and as a branch manager for ANZ and Great Southern Bank (formerly CUA). That mix of lived experience and industry knowledge is exactly why she founded Best Life Loans in 2024.
She’s based in Bundaberg and proudly serves the whole Wide Bay, from Gladstone to Agnes Water, Childers to Gayndah.
Experience you can feel in the first conversation
01
Accredited & 40+ lenders
A fully accredited broker with access to over 40 lenders far more choice than any single bank can offer.
02
Genuinely regional
Bundaberg-based and Wide Bay-wide. Anita understands regional property, income, and life.
03
Lived self-employed experience
She’s run a business, not just read about one. BAS, seasonal income and ABN structures are second nature.
What does a mortgage broker actually do?
A mortgage broker is your advocate in the lending market. Rather than you applying to bank after bank, Anita compares loans across 40+ lenders, recommends the options that genuinely suit your situation, and manages the whole application — paperwork, lender questions and all — through to settlement.
Crucially, a good broker works for you, not the lender. Anita’s job is to find the loan that fits your life, explain it in plain English, and stay in your corner long after the keys are handed over.
Why use a broker instead of a bank?
A bank can only sell its own products. A broker brings the whole market to one conversation — including lenders that are far more comfortable with self-employed and regional clients than the big four. For many Wide Bay borrowers, that difference is the difference between a knock-back and an approval. That is what a Bundaberg mortgage broker like Anita is there for.
Mortgage Brokers FAQs
How do I choose the right mortgage broker?
Look for someone who explains things clearly, works across multiple lenders rather than just one, and takes the time to understand your specific situation, not just your income on paper. Anita’s approach is to listen first and recommend second, and she is always upfront if she thinks now is not the right time to borrow.
Why did Anita become a mortgage broker?
Anita ran her own trade business before becoming a broker, so she experienced first-hand how hard it can be to get a straight answer from a bank when your income does not look like a standard payslip. She became a broker to be the person she wished she had in her corner back then.
Does Anita only work with self-employed clients?
No. While her trade background gives her a real edge with self-employed and low-doc clients, Anita works with first home buyers, families refinancing or upgrading, and anyone consolidating debt using their home equity. Wherever you are in life, she can help.
What makes Anita different from other Bundaberg brokers?
Anita has actually run a business and lived the reality of BAS statements, seasonal income and ABN structures, not just studied them. She is also an independent broker working across a full lender panel, so her advice is about what is right for you, not what one bank is selling that month.
