About Us

 

Mortgage Broker Brighton, Warradale, Flagstaff Hill

I have a real passion for helping people achieve their finance dreams, whether that be the purchase of their first home, upgrading, establishing an investment portfolio, buying or developing their business.

I have over 30 years experience in residential, commercial and business finance, combined with access to over 30 financiers (including all major banks). The combination of my years experience and a wide range of lenders, means I am uniquely placed to arrange the finance that meets my clients’ individual requirements.

Client Education

I have a strong belief in clients making informed decisions about their finances. This means I spend as much time as necessary to ensure my clients fully understand their current financial position and the options available to them to achieve their short, medium and long term financial goals. Additionally, post settlement I continue to work with my clients to ensure their finances continue to meet their requirements.

Loan Pre-approval

Where ever possible I arrange pre-approval of finance.This allows my clients to look for properties with confidence, knowing their maximum borrowing capacity as well as providing them with some additional bargaining power when negotiating their property purchase. In addition to providing the initial pre-approval, I constantly review my clients’ position to ensure they continue to meet the ever-changing lending criteria and that their pre-approved loan remains the most appropriate for them.

Property Investment Loans

My many years of involvement in finance has allowed me to gain extensive experience in arranging finance strategies for property investors and high net worth individuals. The various strategies have been designed to assist all types of investors from those who want a passive, no frills investment to those who are more aggressive and wish to establish a large property portfolio. The strategies assist my clients to purchase investment property(ies) and gain maximum benefit from their investment.

Business & Commercial Finance

In addition to being an accredited residential mortgage broker, I am also an accredited commercial mortgage broker with some 20 years experience in commercial finance.

For my self employed clients this means they have one point of contact for all their finance needs, irrespective of them requiring personal or business finance.

As a result of the GFC there has been significant changes in commercial finance. In particular, lenders have changed their lending requirements and appetitie to lend for various purposes. It is therefore very important for commercial borrowers to have access to a lending expert who can source the right finance to meet their requirements. In many cases there may be only 1 or 2 lenders who will provide the finance required and if the proposal is not presented correctly the bank will not provide the required finance.

My areas of expertise in commercial & business finance are:

  • Commercial property purchases;
  • Franchise finance;
  • Property development;
  • Business purchases and expansion;
  • Cash flow finance (debtor finance).

Business Network

Purchasing a property can be a very daunting and stressful experience, even for those who have purchased many properties before. As a mortgage broker, I am able to relieve people of the worry associated with arranging the finance they require to complete a property purchase. However, I know that this is not the only aspect of a property purchase that can cause stress, for example who do you contact for a building inspection or landlords insurance? It is for this reason I have established a network of experts who can assist my clients with other aspects of a property purchase. Essentially I can manage the whole buying process on my clients behalf.
