What Our Clients Have To Say

Dear Sam and Jason

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the help you have given me in finding the right vehicle for me and then sorting the finance out for me.

The service I received was exceptional and the help and support provided in getting everything complete in time was better than any I have received before.

It’s great to know there are still people out there prepared to put 120% into getting their clients what they nee.

Thank you again, I will certainly recommend Astute to all my friends and colleagues.

Sam, Central Coast

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.

J Scott, Sydney

Sam, Claire and the entire team at Astute were an absolute pleasure to deal with during our home loan process. Prior to Astute, we had been rejected for a loan and were feeling disheartened. Astute not only had us preapproved in just a few weeks, they got us MORE than what we needed to get our dream place. They are experts in the field, know all the industry secrets and I would recommend them for anyone looking to get a loan. No doubt we’ll be using them again in the future!

Thank you Sam, Claire & team for everything!

Lindsay & Jake Bennett, Manly

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.

Chris, Toukley

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.”

Peter, Noosa Heads

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.

Luke and Karen Pride Electrical Contractors, Cromer

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.
