From the age of 18, Claire has been an inspiration in her role. Claire is now well experienced having been with the firm close to a decade now. Claire assists and manages the loan submissions, and processing the deals. Liaising with client and banks, they all love dealing with Claire, and Sam especially is grateful and proud to be part of Claire’s journey in the financial world.
“We have utilised the services of Sam Ayliffe and his team at Astute Manly for over ten years.
The level of service we have received is always beyond peer and nothing is ever too much trouble. Even though we are based in regional NSW, distance is never an issue because they are always on the front foot in regards to communication and paperwork.
Due to the trust that we have in Sam, we have referred our family and friends to Astute Dee Why many times without hesitation.
After many years taking what we felt as a safe and cautious approach to our finances, sticking with one of the “Big four” banks for all our financial needs, we decided we need to look into other options. We knew we could be getting a better deal with our mortgage and the bank we were with weren’t going out of their way to help.
After our first meeting Sam had provided excellent information and gave us confidence to look at the Astute team. Since engaging Sam and his Astute Manly team we have been very impressed with the level of service and the options provided to us. We subsequently switched banks and are making significant savings in the process.
The Astute Manly team did all the leg work in the background with excellent communication and advice throughout, making it a relative smooth transition. We highly recommend Sam and his Astute Manly team for any of your financial needs.
My praise and recommendation for the team at Astute Manly is endless. My case was anything but easy, yet the entire team were constantly on the ball, if not already ahead of the game.
Sam, Claire & Kirsty orchestrated a superbly choreographed routine delivering a stress-free process with solid and sound support every step of the way. I thoroughly enjoyed working with each of them, their flexibility and accommodation working across crazy time zones was outstanding. Not only are they top of their game, they are lovely people.
I honestly couldn’t have achieved the desired result without them. Do yourself a favour and get Astute onboard today!
I had my first dealings with Sam, Kirsty and Claire two years ago, after I was unable to secure finance from several banks to settle a divorce arrangement. They were recommended to me by an existing client who suggested; “If Sam can’t get it done, no one can”. Due to my situation, finance was very difficult to secure, but they were very determined to succeed.
Kirsty and Claire were a pleasure to deal with throughout and were very patient and helpful with my computer illiteracy, during the many exchanges of documents.
Thanks to them I was able to retain ownership of the property, which has since doubled in value.
I recently purchased another property and needed to restructure my finances. With Sam’s recommendations I received a great rebate and reduction of interest rate as well!
Having dealt with many banks over many years, I am now very content to have Sam, Kirsty and Claire look after all my future financial requirements.
Nothing is too much trouble and “If Sam can’t get it done, no one can.”
We have known Sam for the past three years now.
Sam has made the investing side of our lives a lot simpler than what we understood in the past. Always just a phone call away for great advice when we need it in limited time.
I have recommended Astute Manly to a number of our family and friends who have given me great feedback on their experiences working alongside Sam.
The service at Astute Manly is fantastic; the team certainly exceeds my expectations every time. The most memorable thing about dealing with Astute Dee Why is how they manage to structure loans in a way that makes sense for our financial position. The team has helped us to obtain each of our loans and they work wonderfully for us.
Thanks Kirsty! You stayed very patient and professional with me and calmly guided me through what needed to be done. I really appreciate all of your help, and glad you finally got it across the line. I am not sure how you stay so patient, lenders are harder and harder to deal with and the bar seems to constantly move with more and more risk management requirements.
