First home buyers: Michael & Eloise

"Throughout an extensive 15 month process between when we first contacted Alex and the time settlement had concluded, Alex was amazing. From initial assessment catch ups and late night meetings Alex was very professional and diligent in the way he handled our situation. Leading up to settlement day Alex worked extremely hard to ensure everything ran smoothly, a promise he made to us since day 1. He answered and explained every question that was thrown at him, highlighting his expertise. I would strongly recommend Alex to anyone who is looking to purchase, especially those first-home buyers who are looking to break into the property market."

- Michael & Eloise

FIRST TIME Investor: Christopher

"As a first time buyer and sole trader – I approached Alex to help with the process of dealing with the banks to get a loan. Alex made the experience enjoyable, stress-free and I have since recommended him to anyone I know looking to purchase a house – my sister, cousin and close friend have since used his service. Alex’s knowledge of the industry, relationships with banks, and eagerness to achieve the result I was after was second to none. His communication through the process was fantastic and it gave me confidence that everything was taken care of. From the day I first got in contact with Alex to the day I picked up the keys to my first property – Alex was just a phone call away and I can’t thank him enough for the opportunity his tireless work and exceptional service has given me. Thanks mate!" - Chris

FIRST HOME BUYER: ELIZABETH

"Alex was excellent in assisting me to finance my first home.

New family Home: Todd & Tayla

“Throughout the whole mortgage process Alex left myself and my wife at ease. We were fully informed from the outset and were provided with an avenue of options to consider which was both impartial and informative. We were made to feel comfortable not only then and throughout the process - irrespective of the question.

As part of our mortgage application we were provided not only competitive rates but also ample information. The handover process was also made so much easier by having a constant flow of information.

We received excellent customer service throughout the process. A difficult and complex situation was made easy and simplistic.

We remain happy and continue to see the benefits “

- Todd & Tayla

First Home Buyers: Rob & Liana

“Once we decided to take that first step together and buy our first house, we started looking at a range of home loans available. We did our best to compare and understand what each bank offered and which would be best - we found it overwhelming and confusing, and felt we couldn’t trust any banks! Contacting Alex was the best thing we did! From start to finish he has stepped us through every stage of the process. He is extremely knowledgeable and very patient - there was not one question of ours that did not go unanswered. Alex would go that one step further to explain things in the simplest way to ensure we understood all details and were comfortable to keep moving through the process. We felt confident and at ease knowing Alex was there to guide and help us through the gruelling process of finding a house. Alex took a lot of the stress out of finding a loan that was not only perfect for our circumstances, but was also the best rate available. Purchasing our first home wouldn’t have been possible if it wasn’t for Alex and we are truly grateful. We would highly recommend Alex; like he did for us… he’ll put all their needs and wants first.”

- Rob & Liana

New family home: Mark & Bianca

“Hi Alex, We just wanted to send you a quick message to thank you for all of your help with our recent purchase. You helped us from the very start with our Pre-approval and then you we’re constantly available every time we thought we had found ‘the one’. You were always so patient with us and made the process so easy for us especially considering our situation was not as straight forward as we would have liked. We can’t thank you enough for what you did for us and we’ll be sure to recommend you to anyone who is looking for an amazing broker to assist them with their purchase. And we’ll definitely be in touch when it’s time to buy out next home. Thanks again!”

- Mark & Bianca

first home buyers: Dan & Em

“Settlement done! And we have the keys to our new home! A huge thank you to Alex Woodward from 4titudeFinance for everything he has done for us. If you need a mortgage broker get in touch with him. Been on the house hunting journey with us since day 1 and couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Speaks anyone’s language in finance talk!”

- Dan & Em

FIRST HOME BUYER: STEPHEN

“I was looking to buy my first home, and was referred to Alex by a friend.  Being very confused and uncertain about the whole process, Alex took his time, using different explanations and visual tools until I finally understood the difference between my borrowing capacity and my maximum purchase price. He outlined the consequences of borrowing different amounts and how they would each impact Stamp Duty, LMI and my cash flow.

We discussed different lenders and their various offers, and I was able to choose a lender that suited me. Alex then obtained pre-approval so that I could start attending auctions with clarity about how much I could spend, and certainty that any bid I placed would be honoured by the bank. 

After buying the home, Alex processed the remainder of the loan and liaised with conveyancers and agents on my behalf so that my involvement was minimal and simple. I just wish someone could make the renovation process as simple as Alex has made the mortgage! Thanks Alex!'“

- Stephen

NEW FAMILY HOME: ROXANNE

"My children and I had been renting a house for the last few years after a marriage breakdown. The house we were renting got sold and we were faced with renting again. This journey proved to be quite difficult in finding and acquiring a rental.

So by chance or more so frustration l decided to find a broker to see what l could borrow. I was a single mother of two children and ran my own business. I only had one good year of financials and was really waiting for the 2nd year, but time did not allow for this to occur.

Alex was recommended to me by good friends. I read through his life and sporting background, and loved his story. The change in career has taken his passion to help regular people like myself to achieve their dream. Alex is professional and has a relaxed casual nature at the same time. He is confident and never says whats he doesn't think is achievable. He is honest  and gets the best possible outcome possible.

I am so happy to have Alex batting for me. He got a loan with Westpac with just one year of financials for me......something l never would have dreamed would be possible. We have been in our house for just over 3 months and are looking forward to spending our 1st Christmas in it. 

I want to thank you Alex so very much for your excellent service, prompt work, reliability and your genuine care through the process. We really appreciate it. Thank you!”

- Roxanne

NEW FAMILY HOME: MAX & RACHEL

I Highly recommend Alex as a mortgage broker. “

- Kim

FIRST HOME BUYER: DYLAN

“I can’t thank Alex from 4TITUDE Finance enough for his knowledge and endless support throughout the process of buying my first home. From my first meeting with Alex I began to gain confidence and financial knowledge as a young, inexperienced first home buyer. I immediately developed a trusting relationship with him because of his professionalism and genuine vested interest in my future. Alex minimised the stress I felt, and changed what I thought to be a daunting process into a straightforward one. I couldn’t recommend him enough for others seeking financial knowledge.”

first home buyers: luke & chelsea

"Alex has been nothing but incredible throughout our entire home buying experience. As first home buyers, Alex made sure that we understood the process clearly and explained everything in a way that was easy to digest and understand.

He kept us in the loop at every stage of the lending process, no matter how minor or significant the detail was. He answered every question (from both our parents and us!) and kept our minds at ease from start to finish. Not only does Alex operate with the utmost professionalism, but he is also one of the nicest and most approachable people to work with. This definitely took the stress out of making any big decisions or asking any questions. 

We would definitely recommend Alex to anyone looking to buy a home. He had our back from the beginning, and we would not hesitate working with Alex again. Thanks again!”

- Chelsea & Luke

New family home: Sarah

“From the first phone call and first meet, Alex was very professional, friendly and positive. Being a first home buyer, I had many questions which Alex responded to in a professional, positive and timely manner. Alex kept me up to date every step of the way and made sure nothing was missed. Despite buying our home in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Alex was still available and able to work via phone. Every conversation I had with Alex, I could see how much he loves helping people. We honestly couldn't have done this without Alex and would highly recommend him to our friends and family.”

- Sarah

FIRST home buyers: Jason & Katherine

“As first home buyers, we were nervous but very eager to enter the market and start our lives together. Considering we were ready to start the next chapter of our lives but did not have the best idea how to, Alex became a great support to us and a book of knowledge. 

Having Alex guide us through the process was very comforting. We knew we were getting great professional advice on a personal well communicated scale. We always thought that he had our best interests in mind. 

Alex has always been very punctual with all forms of communication and never complained when answering the one of ten emails going back and forth about something we could not wrap our heads around. When dealing with the conveyancer when we finally did purchase our property, Alex was professional, punctual and very co-operative. 

The stressful process of locking down our first property was made that much easier with the support of Alex by our side and we will continue to use Alex into the future.”

- Katherine and Jason

First home buyer/refinance: Mitchell

"Purchasing your first property is one of the most daunting prospects for most people. Alex made this process as smooth as one could imagine. His work ethic, in-depth knowledge and responsiveness puts your mind at ease in what could otherwise be a very stressful time.

He's now helped me not only with my first property purchase but has also since helped me refinance my mortgage and provided further advice as I look to purchase an investment property. His knowledge is wide ranging and he has been well equipped to provide guidance and support in each of these scenarios.

When dealing with such a significant choice it is imperative to have someone that you can trust. Alex builds trust by listening and understanding your unique situation, circumstances and goals. Within 10 minutes of talking to Alex, it is clear he is genuinely working in your best interests.

All of my questions were answered honestly, accurately, without prejudice and in terms anyone could understand. I could not recommend Alex and 4titude Finance highly enough."

-Mitch

First Home Buyers: Dan & EM

“Alex was highly recommended to us from our friends who had recently used 4TITUDE Finance to purchase their first home. 

From the first moment we engaged Alex to facilitate the purchase of our home, Alex was more than welcoming to join us on the journey. Being first home owners, we had little to no idea of the process from start to finish, and as a result were full on questions and sought re-assurance during all phases of buying a property. Alex was always accessible via way of replying to our emails in a timely manner, returning our text messages, answering our phone calls or catching up in person. 

Alex explained things to us in a way which we could understand, whilst also educating us on the behind the scenes processes for current and future reference.  He always had our best interest at heart, and provided us with multiple options during the decision making process which were explained in a language which we could understand and in turn act upon in an educated manner. 

Alex remains in close contact with us a year on from our purchase, checking in and asking if there is anything he can do to lend a hand. His services are on-going which is very much appreciated and comforting. Through what we thought would be a stressful time in buying our first home, Alex allowed us to enjoy the house hunting period and buying process while doing all the hard work behind the scenes. 

We have since recommended Alex to family and friends and will be sure to use 4TITUDE Finance in the future.” 

Emily & Dan.

I could not recommend anyone better to help you through this. What I hear can be a stressful process, Alex was always happy to answer any questions I had and ensure that it all went through seamlessly.

Will Definitely be heading back to Alex and 4titude Finance for all my future home loan needs.”

- Craig

first home buyer: Danielle

“My experience with Alex and 4titude Finance was second to none. Alex was patient and kind at every stage of the process. As a first home buyer, I had never been through the process before, and did not know what to expect when dealing with banks, reading contracts etc.

Alex was happy to explain everything to me as many times as needed so that. I was sure I was 100% satisfied with the home loan I was getting. Would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to buy their first home”

We would definitely recommend Alex at 4titude finance!”

He was always clear, helpful, informative and happy to take the time to explain anything to us that we didn’t understand which made the whole process feel easy.

Alex was very approachable, supportive and patient during the financing stage, and following this, was in constant communication the whole way through from auction day to settlement. We really enjoyed working with Alex and have recommended him to a number of friends since – we will also be reaching out to him again when we look to refinance our current home or purchase other properties in the future!”

He took a complex case, sprinkled some magic dust on it and produced a real come from behind victory.

We cannot thank him enough for the massive savings he has unlocked for us.”

- Justin & Elke

Cash out: Jesse & Bridget

“This was the third time we worked with Alex and we couldn't be happier with the overall service and result. As an independant broker Alex really goes over and above to get the best outcome for his clients. Alex builds a relationship with his clients, taking the time to understand their individual needs and requirements. Our requirements are never straight forward and curve balls usually come up but nothing is too challenging for Alex. He will always find you the best deal and work closely with the banks, pushing back on them when needed. What can be a stressful period is made easy when Alex is there holding your hand every step of the way. He takes on all the hard work and burden of the back and forth with the banks. 

Working with Alex you will experience his personalised approach, making you feel like an individual, not a number that can sometimes occur when you go through larger broking companies. We couldn't recommend Alex highly enough.”

- Jesse & Bridget

We wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of a skilled and experienced mortgage broker to guide them in their home purchasing journey."
