After decades of working with private clients, the Partners at Distinctive Finance identified a gap in the market: the legal profession, a critical pillar of Australian society, has been underrepresented in specialised financial services. To address this, we are proud to announce the creation of a dedicated division exclusively for legal professionals.

“Every brokerage and bank work with medical and accounting professionals, and we excel in these areas at Distinctive Finance. It’s now time for us to become the leading industry specialist in the niche area of the legal profession. Our decision to dedicate a division of our business to legal professionals demonstrates our commitment to this industry.”

— Christian Goodall, Co-Founder & Director of Distinctive Finance

Client Outcomes

How Distinctive Finance Facilitated a New Barrister First Home Purchase

A Barrister and experienced legal professional had transitioned to the Bar some 15 months earlier and was in the process of completing their first full year of earnings. They needed a debt solution to assist with a first home purchase. Unfortunately, after approaching another brokerage that couldn’t assist, our client was left in a difficult position, with first home ownership remaining an aspirational dream.

Distinctive Finance, with an intimate working knowledge of the legal profession and entrenched relationships with the credit teams at all major Banks, was introduced to the client by the Clerk of the Chambers on a Friday. We met with the client the next day, Saturday, and had credit-endorsed terms by 8:30am on Monday morning.

This quick and efficient turnaround allowed our client to attend auctions and open homes with confidence, knowing they had support from a major Bank and, more importantly, a brokerage team that completely understands the needs of legal professionals.

The structuring of the deal and our ability to access major Banks’ credit teams through entrenched relationships is what sets the Distinctive Finance professional debt advisory team apart from its competitors. Our client was extremely happy with the outcome and has become another advocate of the services we provide.

How Distinctive Finance Facilitated a Strategic International Property Purchase for a Legal Professional

A legal professional in Singapore faced significant challenges in securing finance for a home in the highly sought-after inner eastern suburbs of Sydney, complicated by her unique income structure of both local salary and USD stock units. This required a highly specialised financing solution.

Using our expertise with expatriate financial scenarios, we leveraged our network to identify a financier adept at handling complex incomes. A comprehensive assessment maximised the client’s borrowing capacity, aligning the financial solution with her investment goals.

Our client secured approval, facilitating the purchase of her desired property in Sydney’s sought-after suburbs without delay.

This transaction summary exemplifies Distinctive Finance’s commitment to personalised solutions and the ability to navigate complex financial landscapes to achieve favourable outcomes for clients.
