What Our Clients Have To Say

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

Sam and his fabulous team were extremely helpful when I purchased my first home in Sydney. They were very professional and efficient considering I needed a quick turnaround with my home loan application. They were able to find the best home loan facility that suited me – across various lending providers in their network.

Special mention to Claire and Kirsty who helped with the progress of my loan from application up to settlement. They constantly kept me in the loop and were available whenever I needed help/clarification. These two ladies were simply amazing!

I would highly recommend Sam and his team – they provide personalized service and look after you 100%! Certainly needed when you are going through a big milestone in your life such as buying a home.

Joyce, Sydney

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

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.

Phillippa, Banyo

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, 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!

Aiden , Gold Coast

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.”
