CLIENTS HAVE THEIR SAY…
Thanks so much Allistar, you helped make the house-buying process
smooth and were/are always willing to explain or offer advice when asked
for, which I appreciated hugely. - Linda
"Allistar,
Many thanks, that was fast work. This gives me a much better idea of
what I can expect. I shall continue the house hunt and we will be in
touch. I have given a friend your contact details." - Sally
"A
thousand and one thank you's'. We are thrilled with the change over, your
expertise and thoroughness ensured it went through hassle free. If
it wasn't for your news letters would probably have stayed with United
until the fixed rate was up for renewal again. So thank you for
enabling us to get on track and repay quicker." - Linda and Jim
"I
have dealt with Allistar Walker for many years and have
found him responsive and capable of making many deals work.” - Maureen Murphy-Boyd
"Allistar,
Thanks so much for everything that you did in regard to ensuring the girls
and I kept our house. Your thoroughness and thoughtfulness was very much
appreciated and will not be forgotten” - Donna
"Allistar,
thank you so much for all your effort in getting my funding for a venture I
have wanted to do for a long time, also for the pack and your "Thank You”
card. I too hope it is all successful and will definitely recommend
your services to people needing mortgage help" - Tina
"Your
efficiency in processing our loan has been awesome and we both really
appreciate your ability to streamline our purchase. Thanks Allistar” – John & Annie
Meeks

folder that your company provided me with, has helped me organise my
financial affairs, given me great tips, and enables me to keep all my
finance, insurance and investment info in one place. Thanks again - a great
idea." - Francis Vederfeld
I
enjoyed reading your article in the courier newspaper today. I am a 57 year
old real estate sales person of over 12 years experience and father of
three. I believe one of the most important things we can pass onto our
children is financial skills. My father who past away many years ago gave
me as a know it all 19 year old two valuable pieces of advice. "Son if
you can't afford to pay cash for it you can't afford to buy it” excepting
a house of course. And " Son live within your means”. I was a bit of
a slow learner and got burnt twice buying motorbikes under HP. but learned
a valuable lesson at an early age that has kept me in good stead over the
years. During my time in real estate I have seen the bubble burst several
times and you don't want to be overly exposed. High returns
generally equate to high risk and I have difficulty seeing passed bricks
and mortar in the right location and no shared driveways as a good long
term investment. Mary Holm a financial writer in the Herald who doesn't
seem to like real estate much has some good advice " get rich slowly”
As you say in your article we seem to take little heed of history and keep
repeating the same mistakes. I wish simple budgeting skills were learnt at school
as younger people I encounter these days seem to have little financial nous
and want everything now without working hard and saving for it. Greed is
alive and well. We also need to be content and happy with what we have
rather than always wanting the latest, biggest, brightest new fad. I am not
a great fan of 100% finance on a house as its too easy without having done
the hard yards. We are now seeming owners with negative equity and the
subsequent mortgagee sales when times get tough. I hope plenty of people
read your article and that professional advisers like yourself focus on
giving good sound financial advice as there are others out there out
of self interest who will promote the latest financial product that gives
the adviser the best commission rather than what's best for the
purchaser/investor. - Doug
