Bede and team are always excellent to work with, this is now our second property we have bought using Bede as our mortgage broker. With Bede we know we can always rely on great communication, he is always accessible to answer any questions, and the team is very professional!

Empower tax accounting was very easy and professional, despite being based in Melbourne and we are in Adelaide they used technology to ensure our experience was seamless

While building a property portfolio was my goal, learning and defining who I am as a person was the goal of the Empower Wealth team!
In less than 3 months I’d spoken with +6 incredible people on video calls, all who echoed the consistent message of educating Australians on their own wealth and how to pragmatically use this to create investment portfolios, while of course “not stuffing it up”.

But there was something else, through interpersonal connection and professional intimacy each member of the team genuinely wanted to get to know me, and this helped me to open up and form transparent conversations with each department so I could clearly articulate and deep-dive into my goals and how I wanted to achieve them.

I felt truly listened to, and then I saw my property plan! Wow!
I was completely blown away by the growth that I could create for myself, it was significantly more than I had even expected.
As a 32-year-old childless woman, with a small inheritance and assessed on a single income (my partner will be added later), I was looking for something that would secure my future and eventually when I have children, aid their childhood. I’m delighted to now think my property plan might last long enough to ensure my grandchildren’s future may be covered!

My actions today, are going to build a great tomorrow for my future family!

I am incredibly grateful for the support I received from Empower Wealth, which has been refreshing in my property investing journey. They not only provided me with a valuable sounding board during the often isolating process of investment but also helped me gain absolute clarity on my goals. Having Brendan Vaughan as my adviser was a game-changer. His expertise and guidance allowed me to piece together a well-structured plan. I can confidently say that Empower Wealth has been a cornerstone in my financial success, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to make informed and strategic decisions in their investment endeavours.

Melissa and her mortgage broking team are absolute stars! Who knew refinancing and applying for new loans could be such a smooth, easy process? Melissa and her team provided excellent communication, keeping me informed throughout the entire process and they were quick to respond to my calls and emails. Thank you to the team.

Be very careful of Christa Batt
This person attended a owners corporation meeting by zoom.
Representing a lot owner, this person was not a lot owner or proxy. Yet gave her opinion on issue's and advice on issues and
Was considered as part of the majority owners.
When I asked this person are you a lot owner or a proxy,
Their response was. I am an owner.
Which was an out right LIE.
SO be very careful if you ever come across this person and make sure they tell the truth

The service I received from Peter and his team was outstanding. They explained every detail, made the process stress free and literally held my hand from start to finish. I would be returning in the future and will recommend this business to my friends and family.

My wife and I recently refinanced with a mortgage broker from Empower Wealth, Mohit (Max) Kumar. From start to finish Max was exceptional and made the process easy. I can’t recommend Max high enough. Thanks!

I have worked with Empower Wealth for 2+ years now and have used financial planning, mortgage brokerage and buyers advocacy services. My experience has been great which is why I come back and have referred others onto Empower Wealth. I'm not the most financial literate person out there and have never felt rushed when having what I'm sure is simple to the team, explained to me. Highly recommend. The podcasts are great too!

Rachel was so wonderful to deal with! She is knowledgeable who made us feel excited and engaged throughout the whole property plan process. She was able to take us through this journey by explaining the steps and information clearly, never rushed us into making a decision and just made us feel at ease in working through our financial plan. I would highly recommend Rachel plus the supporting professionals such as mortgage broker and buyers agent. It’s been a great experience and a big thank you

My expectations were surpassed during each stage of the process with Empower. Joel is incredibly knowledgeable and has been very patient with my husband and I who have no knowledge of how to manage money or how to purchase property. We now have our financial future mapped out which has helped to rein in our spending, so that we're focused on meeting our financial milestones.

Thank you for your feedback Michael!

If it's not too much of a trouble, can we ask if you could give us a review?

You can copy and paste from your testimonial earlier:
I have mainly been dealing with Amanda and she has been fantastic professional
Amanda and the team came up with a plan, she explained it, so I could understand, and it made it easier to invest in property
Amanda was easy to talk to, and it was never a problem to ask her questions and always helpful
Bryan, the Buyers, Agent is also been fantastic so organise Made me realise that’s the only way to buy investment property
Gianluca the Mortgage Broker he’s also been fantastic he organised home loan quotes without me doing anything so that makes me more likely to buy an investment property

Good financial service with easy to understand outcomes for retirement. Best to start early in life with this plan due to the nature of compounding. Happy to recommend to friends and family this service.

Everyone I dealt with at Empower Wealth was extremely helpful. Anthony in particular made the whole process very easy and his communication throughout was exceedingly good. He explained the steps along the way and always provided progress updates. I will definitely use the services of Anthony and Empower Wealth again and would recommend them to anyone looking to obtain a loan or refinancing as was my situation.

You are all amazing especially Team Anthony. At the start of the process until the end we did not worry of everything. Very good communicator, prompt, friendly, very professional as they know what they were saying and doing and made everything for us stress-free. We're so glad that you extend all your expertise for us to achieve what we need. Great advisor and great team.

This team really look after what is best for their clients.

How I wish we can personally thank you guys for all your help.

We had a great experience with Paul; he was super friendly, very responsive, and we completely understood what we were getting ourselves into. We signed up to the "Gold" package - Advice, Planning, Broker, Buyer's agent - the lot. (Buyer's agent Anthony was also great). Got a nice investment property after a lot of (expected) palaver.

Unfortunately, after Paul moved to a different firm we have felt like we don't really matter - like we're inconvenient leftovers of a previous employee. Slow response times, multiple phone and email reminders.

The Empower broking team have basically told us to do it ourselves if we want to refinance (to release more equity to buy a car). "There's one price lenders give to brokers and another to individuals" is what we were told - which begs the question, why sign up to Empower when we could have got a better deal ourselves? After much discussion, they eventually came up with some options, and all of them were unattractive.

We're now spending our valuable hours hitting the phones and going through outside brokers, who are getting much better refinance deals that the Empower team have been able to find.

I will add that this is not because we have changed our income or outgoings - we used exactly the same figures for both companies. I understand interest rates are making a difference - but if other brokers can get us really good deals, why can't Empower?

And of course, now we've paid our money joining Empower (big fans of the podcast, being the reason we went to them) we are not in a position to go elsewhere, or to follow Paul to his new company - as he made us feel as though we (and our money) actually mattered.

Really disappointed, and a little bit grumpy. I don't think that the people looking after our old client manager's caseload are really invested in us, and that's really disappointing. Happy to be corrected, of course.

We have just purchased our second investment property with Empower Wealth and our experience was very positive. Our BA was fantastic with helping us to target the right type of properties and manage the negotiations. Her excellent knowledge of the market and relationships with local agents was invaluable. Empower also looked after the whole process after the sale through to settlement as well as setting us up with a property manager. A huge thank you to the whole team for making the process so enjoyable and for the fantastic result!
