Empower Wealth Advisory

We use Empower Wealth for all our mortgage broking needs.
Broker Brad and his team have exceeded all our expectations with our purchase. The amount of education and patience we have seen has made us feel incredibly supported and confident in making moves in our wealth-building journey.
Brad himself immediately understood our risk profile, life stage and managed to adjust his communication and education to fit our learning style and values. Piers then gave us timely feedback and updates along the process so we understood each step along the way.
We've already recommended heaps of our friends and family to Empower Wealth.

From our very first consultation, the team at Empower Wealth provided us with clear, insightful guidance that made us be more thoughtful about our future and the lifestyle we aspire to maintain. They walked us through a detailed process that not only educated us on our options but also made us feel entirely supported. The plan they developed was tailored specifically to our needs, ensuring that we could look forward to achieving our retirement goals without sacrificing the quality of life we currently enjoy.

What stood out the most was the peace of mind that came with knowing we were in capable hands. The expertise and genuine care exhibited by the team gave us confidence that our financial future is within reach. Thanks to Ben Thompson, we now have a clear path to our dream home and retirement and are excited about what our future holds.

The team provided us with guidance and confidence to successfully make our first investment property purchase. The blueprint included a location that we hadn't considered and added so much value to our journey, opening up new possibilities. The property recommended to us fitted our brief perfectly so we choose to proceed knowing it will be a great building block in our property portfolio. Throughout the entire process we were supported by the team, through to being connected with a great property manager who has taken over the reins to assist us with tenanting the property. We definitely felt at ease knowing there was experience behind us, so we didn't need to second guess our decisions!

We worked recently with Sandra Doolaul and her team (Mortgage Broker). They reviewed our current position and presented some relevant options to achieve our next investment purchase. They defined the best strategy for us and we couldn't be happier with the service we received. From the initial meeting to the final settlement Sandra and Olivia were professional, knowledgeable and responsive. They took the time to understand our financial goals and provided personalised guidance and support throughout the entire process. We were kept informed every step of the way and we always felt our applications were in good hands. We highly recommend Sandra and her team to anyone looking for a stress-free and successful mortgage experience.

We have worked with Matthew Styles and his team at Empower Wealth numerous times now when buying properties, and Matthew always takes the time to understand our needs and then provides the most appropriate mortgage option for us. He is friendly and always answers our questions with patience and courtesy, and helps us achieve the outcome we are looking for.
We would not use any other mortgage broker for professional and friendly advice and finding the right product to suit our needs. Matthew is also just a really nice person which is a bonus.

Just wanted to say a big thanks to Brendan for the delivery of our first property investment plan!

Being an expat living overseas, the purchasing of a property back home in Australia can seem daunting. We wanted assurance that we could not only afford the property we want now but also continue to afford the property comfortable post moving back to Australia factoring in things like lifestyle changes, income and expense changes and breaks in employment for building a family.

This process has given us the confidence we need to take actionable steps to building our financial future.

Thanks again Brendan!

We would highly recommend working with Stuart and Empower Wealth to anyone needing clarification on planning their property and wealth journey.
Prior to reaching out to Empower Wealth we had educated ourselves to create better money habits and secured jobs with higher incomes. We did this with the plan of wanting to buy more property to help us create wealth. However, we hit a stagnant position where we no longer knew how to keep moving forward and needed to get guidance and reassurance to keep momentum.
Our first meeting with Stuart we instantly knew he could help us create a plan. He provided a space for us to feel comfortable to share our journey so far and express our fears and unease. We felt as though Stuart really cared and it wasn't just a job for him. Our first meeting went way over time as he really got to know us, this really showed us that Stuart had our best interests at heart.
Every appointment through the Property Wealth Planning process built upon the one before. It was never overwhelming for us, it was quite the opposite actually - each appointment Stuart educated us more and more leaving us feeling inspired.
We have now finished the Property Wealth Planning process and we have a clear achievable roadmap of our property and wealth future journey.
We cannot thank Stuart enough for his time and dedication in helping us. It has been completely life changing.

Daniel is a consummate professional. I approached him after my bank lender informed me that my finance proposal would not be approved. Given this prior advice, my business partner and I were uncertain if Daniel could assist us. With our extensive background in lending and years of experience in the banking industry, we were keen to work with someone who comprehended our situation and possessed the expertise to present our credit proposal in a favorable light.

From the outset, Daniel grasped our circumstances and exhibited a profound understanding of fundamental lending principles. In our initial meeting, he promptly offered options and suggestions that aligned perfectly with our financing needs. Despite our previous rejection by the bank, we remained confident that our proposal was strong when presented appropriately.

Daniel did not dismiss our case as too challenging, despite the obstacles we had faced with the bank. His team diligently worked to persuade the bank to reconsider our proposal, ultimately securing finance approval for our project in record time. Throughout the process, Daniel and his team maintained regular communication via phone and email, keeping us informed at every step.

Their exceptional follow-up during the finance approval phase, even after our loan was finalized, was remarkable.

Jake and the team has been amazing throughout the whole mortgage brokerage process. We thought applying a new loan is impossible as I started a new job recently, but Jake made it through for us! The team really took time to make sure we understand everything, Himal and Harley were also very thorough at explaining the instructions and steps with the paperwork to ensure we got things right in one go. They also followed up after everything is settled to ensure the loan is set up correctly which we greatly appreciated. They really put our mind at ease, knowing we are fully in good hands. Thank you Jake and the team, we highly recommend you guys!

The whole empower wealth team were amazing to work with.
From initial brief, property structure proposition to execution was amazing. Very happy with the outcome and well done on having such a helpful professional business and team within it. Have used a couple of aspects of the empower wealth business now and have had excellent experiences so will be back again in the future.
Love the podcast too. Have listened to every episode. Highly recommended. Jason

Insightful, courteous, knowledgable and offer great value for money for their clients. This is how I would describe Empower Wealth and their employees, we have dealt with five or six different people within the various teams from wealth planning and tax to mortgage broking and financial planning and have had great service throughout. I have and will continue to recommend their services to anyone looking for them.

The entire buying process with Brad Fraser, Piers and the team has been absolutely excellent. We couldn't be more appreciative with how well we've been looked after, from the clear advise, knowledge shared and how easy it has been to connecting us with all the right people to close out a great first home purchase. Your support has been invaluable and we look forward to our next property purchase with you guys! Thank you!

Empower Wealth, and Luke Oxenham specifically, made getting a mortgage a breeze. Luke's attention to detail and patience with my many questions made the process stress-free. He took the time to understand my needs, ensuring I got the perfect mortgage for me. If you're looking for a hassle-free mortgage experience, I highly recommend Luke and the team at Empower Wealth.

“Stuart was fantastic to deal with from Day 1. We really valued his honesty, transparency and visionary approach”

“His a straight shooter and this is exactly what we needed. We required a specialist to help us unpack our situation, establish a budget/surplus then understand what property investment strategy would help us achieve our goals in retirement”

“I was surprised this was only 1 additional property, as most buyers advisory firms seem to want to get you to buy you many more” with no strategy - this always worried me as I always questioned why & who’s best interest were they working for”

“We felt that Stuart had our best interest at heart and we now fully appreciate why the planning process is a critical step to complete prior to purchasing & we look forward to working closely with the Buyers Advocate Team to locate the perfect Investment Property”

“By the end Stu felt like a trustworthy friend, who practises what he preaches and we thank him for his honest, professional service”

Brad and the Team at Empower Wealth were fantastic to work with and got the result we needed. Our situation was a bit complicated and Brad worked through the options based on our goals and got the best outcome we could. The lending requirements changed with the lender we were working on an application with but he was onto this quickly and we pivoted to another lender before the application was submitted which shows he is across any changes straight away.

The communication throughout the process was A+

Would highly recommend

Luke and his mortgage broking team at Empower Wealth have amazing to work with. Luke was always only a phone call or quick email away, answering all our questions and providing great advice. Luke is extremely personable and we trusted that he was always trying to help us out in any way that he could.
I will definitely continue to use the team for my future mortgage broking needs.

Testimonial for Sarah Gao: Exceptional Buyers Advocate
Julie and I recently had the pleasure of working with Sarah Gao and her dedicated team as our buyer’s advocate, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From the moment we started the property buying process, Sarah provided outstanding customer service and invaluable advice.

She patiently explained every step of the process, ensuring that we felt confident and well-informed. Her ability to break down complex concepts into clear, actionable steps was truly impressive.
What stood out the most was Sarah’s commitment to understanding our financial goals. She took the time to listen, ask relevant questions, and tailor her recommendations accordingly. As a result, we found the perfect property that aligned with our objectives.
Sarah and her team were there to guide us through the entire journey. Their proactive communication and transparency ensured that there were no surprises. Whether it was paperwork, negotiations, or property inspections, they were always one step ahead, providing timely updates and addressing any concerns.

I used empower wealth's mortgage brokerage and finance team to purchase an investment property and it was perfect. Bede and his team were very knowledgeable and easy to work with. They made the process very clear and hassle free and negotiated a very good deal for me. Highly recommended

Empower Wealth and all of its representatives that we have dealt with on our journey so far have been exceptional. Professional, prompt communication, easy to deal with right from the first contact.
Brendan has created our Property Portfolio and all our meetings with him were well thought out with specific questions that really delved into our visions for future state and addressing all of the things we hadn't thought of before.
Brendan very clearly demonstrated his wealth of knowledge in creating this plan for us. We are very excited for the future and feel more assured to take the next steps having seen the numbers and know what is possible. The education we have received along the way has been invaluable and we look forward to continuing to work with the team at Empower Wealth.

Empower Wealth's Loan advisory has a really well managed loan review and application process. My broker and his team were really good at understanding my needs, identifying best options and managing the whole end to end loan application process. Their communication along the way was excellent and we're available to answered any questions that came along. This is the 3rd time I've used this service and will used them in the future.
