My relationship with CDG Finance began in 2010 when I was doing a commercial development with friends. It was a complex project and there were issues with finance due to a change in circumstances with the parties involved. Our bank pulled out of the deal and we were in a terrible predicament. Three banks and five finance brokers later I found CDG Finance.

Not only did Carlo manage to find a lender for our project (and save the day) but he managed the complexity of the situation with ease and professionalism.

Why would I never go back to the banks? That’s easy. CDG do all the work. I speak to them ahead of time and leave it with them. They come back providing a thorough explanation of their choice of lender and the structure they are recommending. They outline the benefits and any associated consequences, plus they make the application incredibly easy taking away a lot of the frustration and amount of time invested.

What’s more I know I am getting the best rate because Carlo does his research, having access to many lenders all with various appetites and conditions. Best of all I don’t have to deal with the banks and their constant badgering and sales pitch.

I’m an incredibly busy person. I’m a technology consultant and run a development business. I work 14 hours a day and am very time poor. The bank expects you to jump through hoops with staff who have limited knowledge and only offer bank products. No thanks.

I couldn’t recommend CDG Finance more highly.

It’s been a long relationship, since 2002, which is really testament to how important CDG is to our business.

Initially Carlo was instrumental in finding us the best interest rates but over time he has become an integral support to our business with his exceptional service and financial advice.

Carlo acts as our intermediary with the banks, ensuring we always receive the most considered advice and competitive rates. Carlo is also very particular about the people we deal with at the banks and makes sure they have the right level of expertise and experience to support our requirements.

Ferrari Formal and Bridal is a substantial business. We have the largest chain of Bridal and Formal Wear stores in the country. Therefore, its incredibly important we have some like Carlo in our corner. We trust him implicitly.

Given our long association, and the service we receive from Carlo we also use CGD Finance for residential and asset finance as well as commercial finance. Carlo has helped us to finance several business and residential properties as well as cars and business equipment.

These days I consider Carlo as a friend. We know each other very well and respect each other which is a wonderful foundation for a friendship.

It’s with the greatest of pleasure I recommend CDG Finance. I know first hand how much of a difference they can make to a business.

I began using CDG Finance in 2013. I met Carlo by way of a recommendation. Looking back it was a worthy introduction.

At the time the purchase of an industrial investment was going nowhere. I was not making headway with my bank who were very slow to react to my needs. Carlo stepped in and obtained a 5-year facility from another institution on very attractive terms. It was easy to deal with the new bank with Carlo acting as an independent intermediary. He identified a range of available options and gave objective advice. We engaged Carlo again in 2018 when the facility was up for renewal and we were able to improve our position. I could not have achieved these outcomes without him.

What is impressive about Carlo and CDG Finance is their professionalism and proactiveness. They are invested in long term relationships, monitoring their client’s loans and structures, suggesting changes if a better product or rate is available. They are also available to discuss the pros and cons of potential purchases or investments.

As testament to Carlo’s competence, my son also utilises the services of CDG to secure the best finance for his home and property investments. He too, has developed an ongoing relationship that he can rely on to act in his best interests.

I doubt I would ever rely on a bank again to guide my finance decisions. There has been such a decline in service over the years. Gone are the days when your bank manager supported your endeavours. I can wholeheartedly recommend CDG Finance to broker all your finance needs.

It’s clear that Tomi from CDG Finance values relationships. From the outset it was all about getting to know me, my circumstances and my objectives, so that all financial decisions would be properly considered and support my goals.

I’ve been a client of CDG for over four years. During that time they have financed my apartment, my house and a number of business assets including vans, trucks and excavators. They certainly go above and beyond, alleviating me of all the run around normally associated with acquiring finance.

As a business owner, CDG has supported my expansion plans by providing expert advice on the best way to structure my finances to ensure I could keep costs low. I was able to grow my business without the pressure of exorbitant interest rates and having to deal with banks that didn’t understand what I was trying to achieve.

Due to CDG’s diligence I was able to raise funds against my properties and inject capital into my business. It’s that sort of support that doesn’t come from walking into a bank. They really care about the outcome.

I’m very certain that without Tomi and CDG Finance I would not have been able to obtain the finance to achieve what I have, I owe them a lot.

With CDG Finance its all about the relationship, they truly want me to succeed, and that makes them a winner in my eyes.

It was a bridging scenario nightmare. I’d bought a new property last year prior to selling my existing one. When I went to the bank to get bridging finance, they declined my application at the 11th hour! It was a disaster.

I met Tomi through my son and was so impressed by his professionalism and depth of knowledge. He went about securing the bridging finance through a 2nd tier lender providing a further 6 months to sell my property (which we sold within 3 months). Tomi then financed the remaining debt back into the bank space at a more reasonable interest rate.

From what started out as a very stressful situation resulted in a great outcome. As soon as Tomi came on-board, I was confident we were in safe hands. He was so communicative, involving me from start to finish. It was never a problem for him to discuss my situation and to explain the approach he had taken.

I am now looking at doing renovations and hope to use the equity in the house to fund construction. There’s little doubt I will be using Tomi at CDG Finance again to take the hassle out of finding the best way to achieve this.
