What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Mortgage broking, refinancing and home loan services sit at the centre of what this Hobart practice provides, and the accounts describe a process made considerably easier by the guidance on offer. Several customers point to Liam for his knowledge and readiness to help at every stage, particularly first home buyers who came with plenty of questions and little prior experience. Emmanuel draws similar praise for guiding clients from pre-approval right up to settlement, while Max is described as prompt, approachable and clear when explaining lending terms. Roshan and Tarah are also named for the patience and care they brought to anxious buyers.

A point made in several accounts is communication: clients feel informed and supported from the first enquiry onward, with refinancing and debt consolidation handled as smoothly as straightforward purchases. Reviewers note that arranging finance through the brokerage proved easier than dealing directly with a bank, and that replies arrived quickly whenever questions arose. Interstate buyers mention practical assistance with property inspections, and returning clients describe coming back for a second purchase because of the reliability and professionalism shown the first time. Pre-approval, settlement and refinancing recur as the work customers most often describe.

I recently refinanced my home loan and consolidated my other debts into one easy payment through Derwent Finance, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. The refinance has given me more breathing room financially and put me in a much better position to grow and plan for the future. The entire process was smooth, straightforward, and stress-free. What impressed me most was the communication. The Derwent Finance team kept me informed at every step of the process, ensuring I always knew what was happening and what to expect. A special thank you to Emmanuel and his team for their professionalism, knowledge, and outstanding customer service. They went above and beyond to make everything happen smoothly. I highly recommend Derwent Finance to anyone looking for a home loan, refinance, debt consolidation, or any finance-related services. You guys are amazing! Thank you again, Emmanuel and the team.

We worked with Max to buy our first home and were very happy with his service. He was super prompt to respond, explained things in a way that was easy to understand and made us feel comfortable about the (very scary!) first home buying experience. Thank you Max and Derwent Finance ☺️

I could not speak more highly of Juliet Fisher at Derwent Finance and for anyone looking for advice and assistance, Juliet is the best person to have in your corner. Its hard to describe the service Juliet provided, she listened, she understood and she went above and beyond to ensure that the refinance options were the best outcome for our family. Juliet made what looked to be a very daunting process, very very easy. She provided honesty and options and for anyone looking to refinance or consolidate debt, there was no judgement, just assistance. Highly recommend Juliet at Derwent Finance.

Emmanuel did an amazing job from start to finish helping us to secure finance to purchase our dream home. Having previously secured finance straight from the bank, working with Derwent Finance was a much better experience. They communicated well and have worked closely with us through every stage from pre-approval through to settlement.

Alastair was honestly so helpful throughout our home loan process. We had a bit of a unique situation and he really put in the effort to find a lender that worked for us. He was always responsive and so helpful with all our questions, even outside normal working hours, which we didn’t expect but really appreciated. Super easy to deal with and made the whole process feel a lot less stressful. Really grateful for all his help, would definitely recommend him!
