What Our Clients Have To Say

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

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

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!

Lu Howlett, Sydney

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

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

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

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.
