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.

What Our Clients Have To Say

Can’t recommend Sam enough! He helped me and my partner secure our first property giving us several options to choose from and provided great advice every step of the way. He was very responsive whenever we needed him and made the whole process seem easier than we thought especially given we needed a quick turnaround.

Jonathan, Manly

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.

Jimmy & Marie, Wollongong

Sam and the team did everything to get us our finance and in a short period of time. Very grateful for his knowledge and persistence to navigate through a stressful time.

Alanna, Kingsford

Thank you Sam, Kirsty and Claire for delivering and delivering with a smile. As a team you’ve truly gone above and beyond to help us achieve the result you have in our financing arrangements.

This was a result our incumbent bank of 15 plus years was uninterested in even attempting.

Dom and Zoe, Seaforth

Van, Sam, Kirsty, and the rest of the team were great to work with and made things a breeze to complete. With their combined technical knowledge, they were able to source me a variety of home loans and structures to choose from, at an excellent rate. Once lodged, they guided us to complete all the necessary paperwork without any hassles. They kept us well informed and were a pleasure to work with. I will definitely recommend their services to friends and family in the future!

David & Vanessa, Springwood

Having Sam, Claire, Kirsty and the team at Astute take care of our loans has been wonderful. They have been brilliant with leading us through the loan process many times over the past decade. Making what is normally a daunting process very easy.

Stew & Michelle, Forestville

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!
