What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Kel Penfold Finance draws consistent praise for the knowledge and care its team brings to financial advice, with clients describing a genuine commitment to helping them succeed. The guidance provided is repeatedly characterised as clear and thorough, with explanations given in plain terms so that borrowers feel informed and confident about each decision. Several customers highlight the persistence shown when a loan application proves difficult, noting that the broker stayed with the process and worked steadily until a home loan was secured.

First home buyers feature prominently in the feedback, with one account describing a challenging path to purchase that ended successfully through determined effort behind the scenes. The service spans finance broking, mortgage lending, loan agency work and financial planning, and reviewers point to the same qualities across these areas: patience, accessibility, and a willingness to answer questions at every stage rather than rushing a client toward a product.

Communication before and after a loan settles is another recurring theme, with borrowers describing being kept informed as circumstances changed and options were weighed. The personal approach of Kel Penfold himself is singled out, particularly the dependability shown when obstacles arose during a first home purchase, a quality that runs through the wider feedback.

I've had an exceptional experience with Kel Penfold Finance and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and insightful financial advice. The team are highly knowledgeable and genuinely care about helping you succeed. They took the time to explain everything clearly, so I always felt informed and confident in the decisions I was making. I couldn’t be happier with their services!

I would personally stay far away from this firm. We had an initial appointment with Kel himself to organise our pre approval for a business loan and he told us he would get the process started, 6 weeks later after no communication at all we decided to call him and see what the status of our application was. We first had to call numerous times to get a hold of him. He told us he was working hard on it. A few weeks passed without any communication again and we tried to ring him at least 6 times both direct on his mobile and the office with the office ladies telling us they would get back to us many times but never did. Very disappointing and unprofessional.

Kel Penfold helped us get our first home. It was not an easy road but Kel stuck with us and worked hard to secure us a home loan. Thank you Kel, you have been amazing!!!
