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.
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.
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!
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!
“We have utilised the services of Sam Ayliffe and his team at Astute Manly for over ten years.
The level of service we have received is always beyond peer and nothing is ever too much trouble. Even though we are based in regional NSW, distance is never an issue because they are always on the front foot in regards to communication and paperwork.
Due to the trust that we have in Sam, we have referred our family and friends to Astute Dee Why many times without hesitation.
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.
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.
