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.
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.”
Sam, Kirsty and Claire were amazing in helping me not only secure a loan, but also get me through the process every step of the way. Being new to the property market can be daunting but the assurance and guidance and finding the best possible option for me was outstanding in all avenues. Greatly appreciated and highly recommended!
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!
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.
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.
Very friendly and knowledgeable on the best way to structure our home loan needs while listening to our preferences and desires and providing informative suggestions. Always willing to explain the various products and considerations for future planning.
