  • Why ASAP?

    Why use ASAP Financial Services ?

    Qualities:

    Our qualities include :

    • We work for you  (we don't work for any one bank, lender or franchise group)
    • we don't do loans with EVERY lender, in fact we are selective as to the lenders we will use in terms of service and product mix offered.

    Frankly, the quality of service offered by some lenders is so poor we would not put them forward as a solution to our clients' needs.

     

    Around 8 out of 10 of the loans we place come from our existing referral base and repeat business. We think that means our clients like what we do for them.

    Experience

    We do lots of “Bread and Butter” residential home & investment loan work but have become specialists in the “hard” stuff:

    • Blocks of Units on one title
    • Commercial Construction incl. Specialised security such as Medical and Child Care Centres
    • Small to Medium retail shops and shopping centres
    • SMSF Resi and Commercial
    • Specific holding structures such as Hybrid Discretionary Trusts

    We listen

     

    We listen, learn about and help clarify your needs and goals. Based on that varied input, we provide personalised, quality credit structuring advice in a concise written format. We ensure you understand the options available, regardless of how much time and effort this may take. Should you decide to implement our recommendations we will do most of the paperwork for you, chase the lenders, valuers, solicitors and other parties and keep you informed along the way.

     

    The vast majority of our business comes from satisfied existing clients and their referrals

    Established in 1999

    Between our 6 staff we have 50+ years of financial services experience.

    Thousands of transactions from $10k top ups to relationships exceeding $10 million.

    Our close knit mastermind mentor group settles in excess of 500 million per year. So we are confident someone will know how to get it done in the best way.

    Too big or too small to be a client of ASAP?

    You will probably be right at home with us at ASAP!

     

    Most of our clients are multiple investment property owners, in various types of structures, with net worths ranging from – 500k to well over 20 million.

     

    And, we like to work with First Home Buyers and First Investors - for this is where our Structured Finance Concept can have the most impact in the long term.

  • Rates

    Often we will receive a phone call asking 'what is your best rate?'

    'What is your best rate?'

    Invariably the reponse to such a question is that this is not what ASAP seeks to do for our clients. ASAP Financial Services works with a wide range of lenders to get the best value proposition for YOU.

     

    We can almost guarantee that this will NOT be the lowest rate product in the market for that type. In any product or Service in a free market, there are 3 things you can measure :

     

    a) Price

    b) Quality

    c) Service

     

    Please choose any two that are most important to you. In an efficient market we would argue that it isn't possible to have all three.

     

    While there is latitude in the mortgage market you can not, for example, compare one mortgage manager's "fully featured" loan to a Professional package deal offered by the major lending institutions. It would be akin to comparing an orange and a carrot, while they are both food, and they appear to be the same colour, we all agree they taste different and are consumed in different ways !

    Our Difference

    By using structures that are tax effective (please seek personal tax advice) and cashflow effective, with products that allow flexibility in a changing environment,  allowing  you to grow your asset base more quickly, rate isnt as important as it may at first seem.

    Having said that, the rate you pay will mostly  be market competitive with similar products, we dont recommend products that are not cost effective unless there is a "borrower or scenario" reason to do so.
     

    We believe you will be pleasantly surprised by our uncompromising focus on finding the right match for your financing needs. The vast majority of our business comes from referrals generated by existing happy clients, and we think that speaks volumes for our service. 

    Lenders

    We offer products from a broad range of lenders. At any given time we may recommend one or more over others, dependent on your particular needs and financial circumstances. Talk to us about your specific requirements.

    The most responsive service I have received (over Xmas, while on holidays with family). Always willing to answer my questions, and I can tell from the responses, there is a genuine focus on our best interests versus self-interest.
