Peter is the driving force behind Astute Wilson, with over 20 years experience in finance and lending. Peter worked for two large financial institutions before starting up his own successful business Pinnacle Finance Brokers 11 years ago.
With exceptional knowledge of loan structuring, Peter always ensures his clients receive the most competitive loan packages available. In the past, Peter has been named a finalist in the 2002 and 2004 Australian Mortgage Awards for Sales Person of Year and Independent Broker of Year, and in 2006 took home the prestigious MFAA Finance Broker of the Year Award. In 2012 Peter was also named Business Operator of the Year at the Astute Recognising Excellence Awards.
Peter is continually receiving recognition for the quality of his work and understands that everybody’s circumstances are different, which is why he has been so successful in the past with all business coming via referrals from his large existing client base.
Peter more recently has diversified his business into not only home, commercial and vehicle finance but financial planning where he has two highly succesful financial planners assisting clients with superannuation, risk and planning advice.
Josie is a great communicator and answered any questions I had. She explained things thoroughly to me and no question was a “dumb” one. I will definitely utilise her skills again.
It’s rare in today’s world to deal with financial professionals that consistently support clients throughout an entire process. I would strongly recommend the services of Astute Wilston. Each team member I have dealt with over the past eight years, Peter, Dianne, Stuart and Tony have been consistently professional. They ensure everything runs smoothly, the process is explained clearly and clients receive the desired outcome. Their lending support when purchasing a house or financing a vehicle eliminates any surprises. Friends and family that I have recommended to Astute have also given great feedback and were impressed with their support.
Peter has built an amazing practice which shows from the loyalty of his staff and the friendly approach they take to everything. I am not a big client but am always made to feel special. My only comment would be how someone can work for the Astute family as they seem to encourage an amazing culture.
I am a single person and it can sometimes be daunting making financial decisions on my own. Peter always makes me feel confident that the best decision at the time has been made.
Towards the end of our working life, we realised we were not really prepared for retirement and all that meant. We were advised to seek professional help from a financial adviser and we were introduced to Martin Newnes. Martin assessed our situation and prepared a portfolio which gave us an assured retirement income and low risk security. We have always been confident with his strategies and the way he regularly explained his plans for us. Martin’s expertise has taken away all our anxieties about future security and allowed us to live a well-balanced and productive lifestyle in confidence. While difficulties were faced through the financial crisis we have survived and survived well and continue to be confident in the way Martin handles our portfolio and trust his personal judgements that ensure this continues.
I would like to say thank you for taking the best care of me, my loans and my accounts. You are not only one of the nicest ladies I have ever met, you are also the best out there at what you do. Thank you for managing my portfolio of investment properties, for always getting me the most competitive interest rates, and for managing all of my transfers and accounts so that any and all transitions happen as smooth as possible.
I appreciate the high level of professionalism you continue to provide. I have recommended you to many of my family and friends, and everyone who meets you is impressed with how easy you make the transition to better loans.
You are great at what you do, and always make sure your clients best interests are at the front of what you do. Thank you again for working so hard to make my life easier.
Tanya is just a beautiful person who is extremely professional and genuinely wants what is best for her customers. When you deal with Tanya you feel like your dealing a friend.
She always finds an answer to our needs, no matter how challenging. Her product solutions always provide us with something that exceeds what we previously experienced. She knows her stuff.
Josie has been able to assist us in our home loan journey for the past couple of years after being referred to us by a family member. She is very punctual, follows up information and is always keeping an eye on things to make sure we get the best deal. Her service is exceptional.
