Alison was terrific to deal with from the first call.  Responsive, proactive and always supportive she helped us navigate the refinancing possibilities for our business and provided professional and clear advice.  Highly recommend Alison and Rivendell Finance to anyone looking to finance or refinance during these challenging times.

I honestly can't thank Alison from Rivendell Rural Finance enough for everything she did to help me purchase my 260-acre bush block. Before speaking with Alison, I had contacted a few other brokers, but none of them had the experience or confidence to secure finance for a large rural holding. Alison was different from the very first conversation. She understood exactly what was needed, explained everything clearly, and gave me confidence that the purchase could actually happen. From the moment I made an offer on the property right through to settlement, Alison made the whole process incredibly easy. She was always available to answer my questions, kept me updated every step of the way, and took the stress out of what could have been a very complicated transaction. On top of securing the commercial loan for my business, Alison also organised the refinance of my home during the same process, which made everything so much simpler and saved me a lot of time and effort. It's clear that Alison has genuine expertise in rural and commercial finance, and that experience made all the difference. If you're looking for someone who knows their stuff, genuinely cares about getting the best outcome, and makes the whole process as smooth as possible, I couldn't recommend Alison and Rivendell Rural Finance more highly. Thanks again, Alison—you've helped make a long-term dream a reality.

Alison worked tirelessly with us for years to propose possible finance options for multiple rural properties and was crucial to us purchasing our first small farm. We strongly believe we could not have secured finance without her due to complexities in our situation. She was always available to talk through any questions we had and went the extra mile to get us over the line. We highly recommend her to anyone who requires a mortgage broker, particularly for purchasing a rural property.

Alison is the best in the game by far. Her personal interaction and advice was beyond what we could have ever hoped for. Changes, advice,and leadership towards us gaining what we needed. Thank you and the banking team for everything. I recommend nothing but the best and that’s what we got .

My partner and I found ourselves in a non-standard lending situation, which meant the banks simply wouldn’t lend to us. Being rural, owner builders,  and not ticking the standard boxes, they all found it too hard. After reaching out to six brokers and countless banks, we kept getting the same response: it couldn’t be done. As a last-ditch effort before committing to an online funding group (which would have cost us a fortune in fees and double the standard interest rate), I found Alison through a Google search. From the very first conversation, she was helpful, efficient, and determined to find a solution. Despite it being over the Christmas break, Alison took the time to understand our situation, worked tirelessly, and secured us a loan through a standard bank that understood agriculture and hobby farming —with a competitive interest rate, no extortionate fees, and no hidden surprises. After six months of knockbacks, we were amazed at how she took everything in her stride and simply made it happen. Her industry knowledge, persistence, and bank contacts were invaluable. If you’re in a complex lending situation and have been told “no” too many times, don’t give up until you speak to Alison! We can’t recommend her highly enough.

Alison was incredible! She guided my husband and I through the application process for a tricky regionally zoned parcel of land. We couldn’t have done it without her and are grateful for all her help. Alison was efficient and timely in her communication. As first home buyers we had a lot of questions and she was happy to take the time to clarify things for us along the way. Definitely recommend.

Alison was fantastic, kept us up to date the whole process and was extremely patient with us when we kept making major decisions that required starting the process again. Our financial situation changed numerous times during the process and Alison went above and what we expected.

My partner and I bought our first home thanks to Alison. It was a mammoth job with an unbelievable amount of paperwork, which Alison handled so smoothly. We were always in the loop and she made sure we understood the process. We never felt uncomfortable or unsure. There was no way we could have done it without her. A lovely person and the best mortgage broker you’ll find! We’ll never use anyone else.
