Finance Built Around Your Bigger Picture

Your financial position is more than the amount you want to borrow.

Income, existing commitments, business performance, available equity and future plans all influence which lending options may be suitable.

We take the time to understand:

  • What you want to achieve.
  • Your deposit, equity and available security.
  • Personal and business cash flow.
  • Existing loans and repayment obligations.
  • Ownership and borrowing structures.
  • How the proposed funding affects your future flexibility.

Our focus is helping you arrange suitable finance while understanding the financial commitment behind it.


Why Choose Advanced Finance Group?

Chartered Accounting Expertise Meets Finance Broking

For business owners, investors and borrowers with several income sources, a lending application can involve more than payslips and a deposit.

Our Director’s Chartered Accounting background helps us interpret financial statements, understand business structures and explain your financial position clearly to lenders.

We bring this perspective to home loans, commercial lending, equipment finance and property development funding.

You receive:

  • Personal attention and clear explanations.
  • Access to a broad panel of lenders.
  • An assessment of suitable loan structures and features.
  • Support preparing and progressing your application.
  • A wider view of cash flow, capital requirements and financial commitments.

We help you consider the loan and the decision it supports.


Home Loans South Australia

From Your First Home to Your Next Chapter

Whether you are purchasing an Adelaide apartment, a family home in the suburbs or a property in regional South Australia, we help you explore suitable home loan options.

We assist with:

  • First home buyer loans.
  • Owner-occupied home loans.
  • Investment property loans.
  • Construction finance.
  • Refinancing.
  • Fixed, variable and split-rate loans.
  • Equity access for an approved purpose.
  • Debt consolidation, where appropriate.

We explain relevant loan features, help organise supporting documents and guide your application from initial assessment through to settlement.


Refinancing & Mortgage Reviews

Does Your Existing Loan Still Suit You?

Changes to your income, family circumstances, property holdings or business plans can make a loan review worthwhile.

We compare your current arrangements with suitable alternatives, considering:

  • Interest rates and ongoing fees.
  • Offset accounts and repayment flexibility.
  • Switching costs and applicable break costs.
  • The effect of extending or shortening your loan term.
  • Equity access and future borrowing requirements.

If you have several loans, we can also assess how the facilities and security arrangements work together.

A refinance should provide a clear benefit after the costs and implications are considered.


Investment Property Finance South Australia

Assess the Property and the Funding Together

An investment property decision should account for the costs of buying, owning and financing the property.

We help investors assess borrowing options for purchases across Adelaide and regional South Australia, considering:

  • Deposit and acquisition costs.
  • Existing debt and borrowing capacity.
  • Expected rental income.
  • Vacancy, maintenance and ownership expenses.
  • Interest-only or principal-and-interest repayments.
  • Financial buffers and future borrowing needs.

Whether you are buying your first rental property or expanding an established portfolio, we help you understand how the proposed loan fits your wider commitments.

Established Property, New Housing or Construction?

An established dwelling, an off-the-plan purchase and a construction project can involve different settlement timing, valuation risks and cash requirements.

We help assess these lending implications and work alongside your tax and legal advisers where ownership structures or tax treatment affect the decision.

The property should fit your investment strategy, and the funding should support its cash flow.


Property Development Finance South Australia

From Site Acquisition to Project Completion

A development opportunity needs a credible feasibility, sufficient capital and a practical exit strategy.

Advanced Finance Group helps developers explore funding for:

  • Development site acquisition.
  • Residential subdivisions.
  • Townhouse and apartment projects.
  • Construction and staged developments.
  • Commercial and industrial projects.
  • Project refinancing and completion.
  • Retaining completed properties, where suitable funding is available.

Available lending options depend on the project, developer experience, equity, approvals, security and lender requirements.

Understand Your Capital Requirement Before Committing

We help assess how the proposed finance interacts with:

  • Land acquisition and transaction costs.
  • Planning, design and professional fees.
  • Construction costs and progress payments.
  • Interest, lender fees and holding costs.
  • Contingency allowances.
  • Presales and settlement timing.
  • Sale proceeds or refinancing capacity.

Through our corporate advisory services, we can also assist with feasibility modelling and scenario analysis.

Before purchasing a site, understand how much equity you need and what happens if costs rise, completion is delayed or sales take longer than expected.


Finance for Self-Employed Borrowers

Present Your Financial Position Clearly

Business income is not always straightforward. Company profits, distributions, existing liabilities and recent trading results can influence a lender’s assessment.

Our Chartered Accounting expertise helps us interpret your financial information and identify lending pathways that may suit your circumstances.

We assist:

  • Sole traders and contractors.
  • Company directors.
  • Partnership and trust borrowers.
  • Business owners with multiple income sources.
  • Self-employed property investors.

Applications remain subject to lender assessment and documentation requirements.


Commercial & Business Finance South Australia

Funding for Your Next Business Decision

Purchasing premises, acquiring a business or expanding operations creates funding requirements that should be considered alongside day-to-day cash flow.

We assist South Australian businesses with:

  • Commercial property purchases and refinancing.
  • Business acquisition and expansion finance.
  • Working capital facilities.
  • Invoice and trade finance.
  • Equipment and vehicle finance.
  • Property development funding.
  • Agribusiness lending.

We consider the purpose of the funding, repayment capacity, security and facility costs to help you assess a practical way forward.

Where required, our corporate advisory services can support forecasting and scenario planning.


Equipment & Asset Finance

Equip Your Business While Managing Cash Flow

Equipment purchases can place significant pressure on available capital. Suitable finance may allow you to spread the cost while retaining funds for operations.

We arrange funding for eligible assets including:

  • Cars, utes and commercial vehicles.
  • Trucks, trailers and fleet assets.
  • Construction and earthmoving equipment.
  • Manufacturing machinery.
  • Agricultural machinery.
  • Medical and other business equipment.

We help assess deposits, repayments, loan terms and any final balloon payment against your expected cash flow.

The equipment should support your operations. Its finance should fit your business.


Agribusiness Finance South Australia

Property, Equipment & Seasonal Funding

Agricultural businesses often face a timing gap between expenditure and income.

We help explore finance for farm property purchases and refinancing, machinery and equipment, and working capital requirements.

Our assessment considers the property, operating structure, financial performance, seasonal cash flow and available security.

Whether you operate a cropping, livestock, horticulture or viticulture business, we start by understanding how your operation earns income and uses capital.

What Our Clients Say

Here’s what some of our clients have shared about their experience with Advanced Finance Group.

Quality Service

★★★★★

Finance Solutions Where Others Couldn’t Deliver

It was represented to me by many professionals in the finance industry that my finance could not be placed.

André treated me with empathy, qualified me to fully understand my circumstances and delivered in 7 days!

André worked tirelessly and delivered on time.

Max

Outcomes above the-sum-of-the- parts.

André’s support throughout the process of finding and purchasing our home was incredible!

He was already among the best I have encountered in his field; but it was the extra level of service that really made him stand out. André has a strong relationship with several real estate agents who he sent details of our preferences for a home. This led to a series of targeted homes being presented to us, including new listings.

I would not hesitate to recommend André.
