Derek is an advisor who actually cares. He has unfailingly worked hard to secure the best results for us. We recommend him without reservations.
We had a great experience working with Derek at Loan Market. He was always friendly, easy to talk to, and kept us informed every step of the way. A big thank you to Thao as well for all the support behind the scenes. We highly recommend Derek and the team!
If you are ready for a home loan or you just need to know your lending power and guidance on how to achieve the best outcome for yourself, have a yarn with Derek. He has been most approachable , helpful and just wants you to achieve your dreams. From beginning to end, Derek has always just been a phone call away to answer the simple and hard questions. Assistance with gathering all the required information just made what seems like such a daunting task simple. Derek is a local, a Darwin gem ! Thank you Derek and your team.
Derek and his assistant Thao were extremely helpful and guided us through the loan approval process from Day 1. His knowledge and expertise of the Darwin property market was an added bonus. He got us pre approval quickly and once we signed a contract, he got approval done in 7 days. Highly recommend!
My partner and I approached Derek as first time home buyers and we felt incredibly supported. Derek and his team conducted market research for us, not only considering interest rates but also explained hidden fees. Derek made time for us both and explained everything thoroughly, including finance for the property and other fees such as stamp duty and conveyancing. Derek is highly professional and personable, not only did he help with finance but he was also able to support our process with the real estate agent and the conveyancer. Derek gave personal finance guidance and tips which are very valued. We highly recommend.
Derek and Thao know their stuff. They are always available to answer any queries about my home loan. Derek just helped me move my mortgage loan to one with a much lower interest rate. I wasnt even looking or aware, but it will save me thousands. Thanks Derek!
Derek is very knowledgeable, attentive and honest. He is very responsive to emails, calls or requests. He has become a trusted friend over the time I've been using his services.
