I’m a finance professional with broad experience structuring loans across residential, commercial, SMSF and business lending, and I’m passionate about helping everyday Australians achieve their financial goals.
With experience across both straightforward and more complex lending structures, such as commercial and SMSF, I understand the importance of careful lender selection and strategic thinking. My industry experience allows me to apply a considered, practical approach to supporting my clients and helping them move forward with confidence.
I’ll happily guide you through each step of the lending process with timely clarity, whether it’s a straightforward transaction or a more complex financial scenario. I’m always available to provide support and answer questions.
Above all, I value long-term relationships built on trust, transparency and consistent outcomes.

Why Choose Us
SUPPORTING FIRST HOME BUYERS
Just starting out and not sure what kind of loan you need? No worries! We are here to help. As a first home buyer, you can obtain finance from a financial institution (a loan) either to purchase or secure against the property, with our assistance. Features of a mortgage such as the size of the loan, maturity of the loan, interest rate, method of paying off the loan and other characteristics can vary considerably. It’s always best to speak with a professional mortgage broker to discuss your options. We can also help you determine your eligibility and apply for the First Home Owner’s Grant.
INVESTMENT LOANS
Investment loans are structured in a specific way to allow you to make the most of your assets and finances. We can work with your financial planner and accountant to ensure your loan is set up to meet your specific needs, and we have access to competitive loan options that can help you maximise your investment returns.
COMMERCIAL LOANS
Commercial property and business lending policies and interest rates are rarely found on lender’s websites. Unlike residential home loans, the pricing of a commercial loan can be negotiated based on your background in business and the security to be offered. If you need help to refinance or purchase commercial property, just contact us today.
STANDARD VARIABLE & FIXED RATE LOANS
The variable rate loan offers more features and flexibility than the basic fixed rate loan, so the rate is usually slightly higher. Fixed rate loans are set at a fixed rate for a specified period – usually one to five years. This gives you the advantage of knowing how much your repayments will be, allowing you to organise your finances without the risk of rising interest rates. However, this advantage is offset by the possibility of not benefiting from a drop in rates.
SMSF
An SMSF property loan is a specialised loan that allows your Self-Managed Super Fund to purchase an investment property within super. These loans are structured to meet superannuation regulations and can help grow your retirement savings through rental income and long-term capital growth, with expert guidance to ensure the process is handled correctly.
BRIDGING LOANS
A bridging loan may be necessary to cover the financial gap when buying one property before your existing one is sold. This finance is secured against the existing property (utilising equity) and the new property being purchased. Usually, bridging loans are short term (normally 6 months) to allow for the sale of the original property and more expensive than other types of loans. There are alternative ways to finance a change from one home to another, so please talk with us to discuss your options.
ASSET FINANCE
Need finance for another large purchase besides your home? You can also ask us to access competitive finance options for private cars and recreational vehicles, commercial vehicles, plant and equipment for your business and other kinds of small business loans for a variety of purposes. These finance options may include personal loans, car loans, a variety of leases, commercial leasing options, chattel mortgages and more.
Services
There are hundreds of loan products on the market today. It is our job to navigate that landscape and help you find the right solution that suits your individual needs and servicing ability.
We can help first home buyers, next home buyers, refinancers and investors, PAYG or Self-employed.

Testimonials
I used to think brokers cost extra—but they don’t, the lender pays them! Once I found this out, it was a no-brainer. Sam was amazing, making the entire process stress-free and keeping us updated every step of the way. Thanks to his guidance and expertise, we felt completely confident and couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Wendy S.
We met Sam at an open home and were impressed by how approachable and helpful he was, without the usual sales pitch and pressure. Great vibes from the start, he answered all our questions clearly, we wouldn't go with anyone else.

Will C.
"We honestly couldn't have asked for a better mortgage broker. Sam took the time to explain every option clearly, walked us through the numbers and made what can be a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. If you want someone who is professional, detail-oriented and truly in your corner, we can't recommend Sam highly enough. We will be using him again for our next property purchase.
