The partnership between Aussie and the reality show “offers a timely and relatable look into the emotional highs and financial hurdles of buying a home,” said Aussie.
Aussie broker Sam Harvey is included in the filming of the show. She said it was a fun experience and she “felt like a total broker superstar!”
“The crew was really warm and welcoming, and the couple I was cast with were such good vibes. I loved seeing all the behind-the-scenes magic (last-minute lipstick, impromptu wall hangings, and a few ‘off-script’ moments). It gave me a whole new appreciation for how much thought goes into every shot,” said Harvey.
"I love that it puts Aussie (and Aussie Sam) in the spotlight, where we shine best – helping everyday Australians into the property market. This show makes home loans feel approachable again, and I think that’s where our brand is strongest. Personally, being the broker ambassador feels like such an honour. It’s a chance to show that mortgages don’t have to be scary – and your broker can be both real and relatable.”
House Hunters Australia premieres on 11 May on Network 10. The show will launch nationally starting on Sundays for two weeks straight after MasterChef Australia on Sunday, 11 and 18 May and weekly every Friday from 16 May at 7:30pm.
Lendi Group’s general manager of growth, Emily Lonsdale, said this show is timely as it offers practical tips for entering the property market, a challenge plenty of Aussies are facing.
“As our proposition evolves from mortgage broker to an integrated property ecosystem, we need to bring Australians on that journey and show them we’re in their corner in new ways – and at every step,” said Lonsdale.
“House Hunters Australia is the perfect platform to bring this brand evolution to life – to show the real value we can deliver for customers by empowering them with sophisticated market analysis and property search, through to professional mortgage broking and quick conveyancing – all under one roof.”
Commenting further, head of Paramount ANZ Brand Studio, Michael Stanford, said the sponsorship makes sense.
“Australia’s obsession with property runs deep – and House Hunters Australia taps into this beautifully. The series is so entertaining and engaging taking viewers along for the ride as home buyers dive headfirst into the chaos of finding their dream home with all the emotions, fiery opinions and laughs along the way,” he said.
“Aussie is such an authentic and ideal partner for the show as they are a major force in the property market offering a range of premium products and services for home buyers, just like those we see in the show.”
