“It is nice to be able to meet face to face with whom you work with. We have always felt that Magnet was part of our team and always been able to pick the phone up and speak to Debra, Sam, Jeremy or Ashley on what ever we needed or just to have a chat. Finance works well for us stage payments are released almost instantly after valuations.”

“Having previously used main line banks for property finance, I found they were unwilling to lend development finance for this project at this time. I approached Magnet Capital and was very pleased to be accepted for finance by them. I found the company very approachable and friendly and their expertise in the property market was extensive.”
“The loan was agreed and arranged without fuss and we were able to access the funds within weeks of our initial approach. Sam, Debra and the whole team are great to deal with and are at the end of the phone for advice and assistance if required.”

“Ashley, Sam and the team at Magnet have provided superb support for my client in a development deal with a number of challenges. They have been proactive, flexible and solution-orientated. From joining us on site to concluding the deal at their offices Magnet have been incredibly clear about their process and, importantly, once they indicated their intention to fund the deal have not once wavered in their support. The clients have been extremely impressed and as a result Magnet have built a relationship for the long term.”
