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.
I had never purchased or financed a new car before so the whole process was new to me, David was extremely knowledgeable in putting forward multiple options that were most suitable to my finances. He was also extremely diligent in follow up to make sure I had everything I needed or if had any questions. During the financing process of the car, David went over and above what was required to ensure I had the best deal and made it prevalent that he genuinely cares for his clients. I would recommend anyone to David for the transparent client focused service and he is also just a good down to earth bloke.
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.
This is the fifth time we’ve worked with the Astute team to secure a loan. It’s always a delight working with the team on our finance arrangements. To a person, the team is knowledgeable, fast and professional which minimises and stress for us when we’re setting up a new loan. We really appreciate your help and look forward to working with the Astute Wilston team again soon!
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.
Tanya is an enthusiastic, passionate and kind person who made the process of buying a house understandable and clear. The fact that she is so passionate and organised in her profession assisted the process that for most people, is quite stressful. I will happily recommend Tanya to anyone that is planning on purchasing an investment.
He made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. He was professional and friendly at the same time. I have already referred a friend to him post settlement. My friend has also asked me to compliment Grant on his professionalism and knowledge.
