What clients say

We were recommended Steven by a local real estate agent & from the moment we made contact we were put at ease by his caring professional manner. Steven listened to our story without any judgment and gave good sound knowledgeable direction, keeping us informed on progress throughout our application. Within a very short while, thankfully to Steven’s awesome communication skills & sold relationships with lenders, we were offered a refinance deal to suit our needs. We highly recommend Steven for supporting us through this process & taking the stress away, when other brokers popped us back into the too hard basket!! We look forward to working with Steven again in the future.

Tracy & Jon

Steve truly went above and beyond to assist us in securing our loans. His approachable demeanor and honesty made the entire process seamless. Not only did he work diligently, but he also worked quickly, ensuring that our needs were met promptly. When we encountered difficulties with the bank, Steve didn't just stand by; he fought tirelessly on our behalf. His determination and advocacy were pivotal in navigating these challenges, and I sincerely believe that without his involvement, we wouldn't have achieved success. Steve's dedication to his clients goes beyond the ordinary, making him an invaluable asset to anyone navigating the mortgage process. We are grateful for Steve's expertise and dedication, and we highly recommend him to anyone in need of mortgage services.

As real estate agents who also have a property portfolio of investment properties, we have had many dealings with banks and mortgage brokers over many years. Our most recent dealings with Steve Potter from Vega Finance have prompted us to write this testimonial. After searching for a holiday home in the far north for over 10 years, we came across one that suited all of our needs. Upon enquiring to the agent, we soon discovered that we would be competing against other buyers. This made our finance requirement a matter of urgency. Having been introduced to Steve through our work at Bayleys we decided to engage home to help us. We cannot speak highly enough of the service that we experienced with Steve. Communication was outstanding every day, and he worked with the urgency that we were hoping for. He was clear in requesting the information he needed from us and tenacious in pushing the deal through. As an agent, we have also had Steve get finance approved for some of our buyers, when their own banks made it seem impossible. We cannot rate highly enough his skills, ability and performance to get this work done in a timely manner with a stress free approach. Of all the experiences we have had, the service and result we got with Steve was by far the best and we are now making a habit of recommending him to all of our clients – because we are confident that if anyone can get it done, Steve Potter can.

Olivia and Brent

Steve is a fantastic mortgage broker, very professional and knowledgeable. He was very thorough in explaining everything to us so we were well aware. This was our first home purchase, so we were very nervous and unsure of the process. Thanks Steve for your great help and making this as easy and seamless as it was

Ben and Chloe

Steve has amazing communication, nothing was too much hassle. Got us an approval within a few weeks. So happy bless you.

Helen

Tre, myself and our daughter Mellie-May would like to say a massive thank you for all your help and guidance throughout this process. Being first home buyers we were very overwhelmed by what was required of us, however you made this experience so much better. Any questions we had you would answer them even if we thought they were silly. We really appreciate everything that you have done for us. If we were to tell anyone about Steve and the mahi that he does it would be no matter what Steve has your best interest at heart. If you are a first home buyer and have not done any research into what the process is, Steve will help you with all of it and he goes above and beyond for you. Again nga mihi Steve for all your help and guidance it has been a pleasure to work with you.

I can't recommend Steve enough as a mortgage broker! From the first time we got in touch, he showed how professional and knowledgeable he is. He cares about his clients including those entering into the housing market and made the whole process really easy. He's so quick and organised! At every stage, Steve made sure everything happened on time and without any mistakes resulting in a better deal than we were expected! Steve has a great sense of humour and made us feel relaxed and turned what could have been a stressful time into a breeze. Steve's professionalism and clear way of speaking gave us confidence all the way through. We knew we were in good hands, and he proved us right every step of the way. If you're looking for a mortgage broker who not only does a great job but also makes the whole experience enjoyable, Steve's your guy.

Dina & Tafihi

Steve came highly recommended, and we know why. He's personable and friendly, and is able to translate technically difficult information into plain english. He goes above and beyond, and we will definitely use Steve again in the future for both our own home loan and investment properties.

Rick & Hayley

Just wanted to say thank you for all your work, to help us get across the line on purchasing our first home. You took something that we lost all hope of getting, in a process that we had been working so hard for, and turned it into reality. When this deal fell through due to finance with our previous broker, I was broken, then when Brad gave us your number and said to keep faith, to be honest I was sceptical, then we spoke on the phone and you gave us hope. The speed that you were able to come back to us and say it can be done, was truly amazing. We have worked so hard and our family has sacrificed so much to get to this point and with your help you really made a dream come true. Thank you. I really appreciate your phone calls out of office hours and during the weekends. It fitted in perfectly with the times that I had to work on our dream. Your friendly approach made me feel comfortable with being very honest with our details, rather than trying to give you the information that I thought you wanted. The look on my family's face when I told them we had the finance to buy the house was priceless. My 6 year old was so excited when I told him that he would no longer be in the same room as Mum and Dad and he would have his own room, almost broke me. Thank you. For making our family dream come true.

Jason & Hayley

I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your exceptional support. Your hard work and dedication were instrumental in helping me achieve my goal. I highly recommend you for your outstanding efforts and the extra mile you went for my family and me. Thank you once again for everything
