Gareth was very informative and I felt he really listened to us and understood what we were working towards, he had some great advice and recommendations that we otherwise wouldnt have been exposed to. Gareth is very responsive. I'd recommend him to anyone needing financial advice
Finsol was a delight to work with, and I will be back! They're a highly capable and knowledgeable team that provides exceptional service. Finsol care about ethical and socially responsible providers and took an interest in my needs and how I wanted to invest. Fantastic experience all around.
Transparent and well-presented reports and easy to follow. Thorough and intuitive needs assessment. Andrew was great to deal with. Highly recommended.
Paul and his team absolutely nailed our mortgage process. We were provided with a clear plan in an extremely organised way and were kept in the loop at each and every step. Paul provided us with several detailed options/scenarios with regard to the recommended insurance policies in a very clear and structured manner that helped with informed decision-making. This includes accurate and timely advice. Paul is excellent at explaining financial questions and he has provided us with great advice. We would recommend him to anyone I know. Finsol is definitely looking out for its clients, we will be using them again for more purchases in the future.
The team at Finsol are a breeze to work with! I'm super impressed by their process and how straightforward it is. The communication is on point, the vibe is friendly, and you feel like you are being taken care of every step of the way.
If you are contemplating, just do yourself a favour and let Finsol take care of everything. It just makes it so damn easy! Genuine, authentic, and down to earth people. Thanks so much! You guys are the best.
My experience with Finsol Financial Advisers Napier under the guidance and expertise from Gareth Dobson was so pleasurable. I was put at ease right from the start with his amazing manner of explaining the investment process in a way that was easily understood by myself who has very limited understanding of investments. I highly recommend his services who is considering investing their savings to make them work better for them.
Andrew was absolutely brilliant in navigating the world of insurance for us. He worked closely with us to ensure we got a plan that adequately covered our needs at a price we were comfortable with. Would highly recommend going through Andrew and the Finsol team for your insurance needs!
Gareth was so helpful and quick to sort out my health insurance. The whole process was hassle free, everything was followed up promptly and I was amazed at how painless it was. I feel safe knowing I am well covered for anything that may arise even given my existing conditions.
I'm so grateful to Finsol for helping me with my KiwiSaver. I had never really given it a second thought, but after speaking with Gareth, we switched my fund type and upped my contributions. Over the last six years, I have had substantial growth thanks to my investment returns, and I now have a healthy balance to use towards purchasing my first home. The whole experience has been educational and empowering.
We contacted Finsol, inquiring about a mortgage broker to assist us in buying our first home. We got a response almost immediately, letting us know we would be looked after. Shortly after, Paul got in touch and gave me a rough breakdown of what we needed to do, and what our possibilities were. After the brief introduction, I was certain that Finsol could provide us with a great service and Paul was the right person to do so.
In our situation, we needed a team with a sense of diligence and urgency to get things done, whilst keeping us well informed on what we needed to get done on our end. Paul and the team delivered in spades. Paul is the perfect blend of being very professional, approachable and friendly whilst maintaining a "no nonsense" approach and possessing strong technical knowledge. I felt I was in very capable hands throughout the entire process.
From first contact with Finsol, fast forward to a few weeks later.. my partner and I have secured our first home. This is all due to Paul's hard work, transparency and ability to guide us through the steps involved. We will be recommending Paul & Finsol to all our friends and family, looking to buy their first home. To anyone looking for first home assistance, look no further than Finsol, they are outstanding. Thanks again, team!
We needed guidance as to how to go about investing our money for wealth creation. We were haemorrhaging money and needed help to get a handle on things. Gareth asked all the right questions and was very thorough in the discovery phase; he then came up with a financial plan that suited our goals and gave us insights as to ways to go about saving money we would never have known about. It has been almost 3 months since we received our financial plan, and our finances have never looked healthier. We are on a path of paying off our mortgage in about ten years and have accounts with money in them that we would have dwindled away from previously. I’m so happy we went through this process and would recommend to anyone!
Thanks to Gareth Dobson and the Finsol team for your help. This has been an informative and helpful process from start to finish! I recommend your service without hesitation.
The idea of setting up my first investment portfolio was daunting for an individual that does not understand the share market. Gareth made it a seamless process and explained everything in detail.
I would strongly recommend Paul at Finsol to anyone who was considering getting a home loan. Paul had great communication throughout the process. His professionalism, knowledge and experience really helped to make what can be a very confusing and lengthy process (especially during COVID-19) a lot easier.
Paul was outstanding! Professional and knowledgeable, he helped answer any questions we had and made our well-being a priority at all times. A lot of people get life insurance without the knowledge of what they’re getting. Not with Paul. He patiently listens and helps you comprehend what you’re signing up for. I have been through a few mortgage and insurance brokers and they can not compete. Highly recommended!
Gareth is very easy to deal with and is on the ball as he actions things straight away. He made the procedure very easy to understand and had great ideas. I can see Gareth practices what he preaches and he wouldn't recommend anything that he is not doing himself. He was very considerate of my time and very respectful.
We had outstanding customer service and professionalism from Jordan. He helped my husband and I understand what we needed to achieve to purchase our home. He systematically showed us where we needed to be and removed all barriers. We have lived in our home for two years now. He also helped my little brother buy his first home right after assisting us. Kia ora Jordan!
Before working with Gareth and Finsol, I found the world of investing intimidating. However, I ended up really enjoying learning the key fundamentals of investing - I feel confident moving forward, and I know what I need to do long term to grow wealth. It's super empowering learning the ropes and knowing I'm building a nice nest egg for my future.
Paul has been amazing in assisting us with our mortgage and insurances for the past few years. Always very on to it, knowledgeable and easy to reach! High recommend. Brian and Colette
This company stands out from the rest. Where so many try to sell you something and forget about you, Finsol listens and hears your needs and understands what you’re trying to achieve.
If you want to talk to people that believe in what they are doing, if you want to be heard, and if you want to feel certain that someone is going to go into bat for you and work to get you the outcome you desire - give Finsol a call. You won't be disappointed.
Working with Andrew has made organising all our insurances super easy. He was flexible and was able to meet with us at a time that suited us and found us a better deal than we originally had. He is approachable and discusses all options in an easy to understand way making you feel at ease with all the information. Highly recommend working with the team at Finsol.
I thoroughly recommend Gareth’s expertise, knowledge and service. He helped us select health insurance and we valued his knowledge of the industry and the insights he could provide that we had not previously factored in. We have recommended him to friends and wouldn’t hesitate to use Finsol again in the future.
Gareth and the team went above and beyond when it came to sorting out our life insurance cover before the arrival of our first child. Throughout the whole process, Gareth kept us informed and worked tirelessly to get us covered as quickly as possible.
His advice and knowledge is second to none and we will be looking to use Finsol again in the future.
Thank you to Nadeesha Ranasinghe for her honesty and always being available anytime, even on the weekend, the best broker we could have ever hoped for and highly recommend her. We did it, and we got to celebrate this year’s Christmas in our place. Thank you from us and our boys. Have a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to the Finsol team.
During a life threatening health issue of my husband, I decided to renew my life and health insurances. The team at Finsol were extremely helpful and made things simple at a trying time for us. With great communication and getting the best deals, I am more than happy to review Finsol as A+ insurance brokers. Thank you so much to Gareth and the team for the extra effort
My husband and I enjoyed Hayden’s professional and thorough approach. Hayden cares about the minor details and takes care to find the best solution possible for his clients. He brings a broad knowledge and skill set with him, which we continue to appreciate. Communication has been effortless, and no question too troublesome. Thanks, Hayden!
Gareth and the team are amazing to deal with. They are all extremely professional and knowledgeable with fantastic attention to detail, ultimately leaving us feeling confident that our insurances are structured correctly, both now and in the future. They were also very accommodating with working around our hectic schedules. A nice touch having quality coffee onsite too. Well done, team, highly recommend.
Paul and his team absolutely nailed our mortgage process. We were provided with a clear plan in an extremely organised way and were kept in the loop at each and every step. Paul provided us with several detailed options/scenarios with regard to the recommended insurance policies in a very clear and structured manner that helped with informed decision-making. This includes accurate and timely advice. Paul is excellent at explaining financial questions and he has provided us with great advice. We would recommend him to anyone I Working with Paul and his Team was a real pleasure. They provided fantastic service with high standards. The Team is very professional, tirelessly and promptly responding to all our questions and queries - day and night (and even on weekends). Paul is very good and clear in explaining the details and processes, we felt in safe hands the whole time. He is passionate and finds the best solution that suits his clients. I`m super pleased with Finsol and highly recommend their service, 10/10.know. Finsol is definitely looking out for its clients, we will be using them again for more purchases in the future.
Finsol have been next level fantastic for our clients. The focus and attention to detail during underwriting time has been amazing. We feel comfortable that the policies we have in place are well thought out and considered. Their knowledge of insurance products out there is in-depth. A true industry expert who really do care about their client first and foremost. Very impressed.
Finsol recommended I take up Income Protection, I never thought I would have to use it, but after a surfing accident, I was unable to build for nearly four months. ACC covered some of my lost income, but not all of it. I was stoked to have a backup plan. Thanks to Gareth and the Finsol team!
People would say that buying a house is a stressful journey- but surprisingly not for us as I found Finsol to guide and help me. I started getting in touch with Nadeesha Jan 2022, we planned how to be ready once my KiwiSaver matures (Aug 2022). Being in different cities was not a hindrance, the process was all done online which was so convenient to us. Then everything was ready Aug 2022, we submitted all the required documents that she needs and hooray, we got approved! She is fantastic, not your ordinary financial adviser. When I was told that I can't get a home loan because I just started my parental leave, when we were told that it would be hard because my husband just started a new job- Nadeesha set my expectations but remained optimistic that we can have this dream come true. She thinks ahead and has plan B, C, D if plan A would fail. She's genuine and quick in answering my email even if it was just to assure me that it's all good as I worry much. Big thanks to Nadeesha and Finsol! We wouldn't have this home without your help. Now I have been recommending her to all my friends who are interested in buying a property.
Paul has been an amazing support to us while buying our first property. We found him approachable, knowledgeable and hard-working, and we know we are in very safe hands. We are confident he has secured us the best mortgage structure that will see us through into the future - which we are so thankful for. In addition, when he learned that some of his other clients were also trying to purchase the same property as us, he was completely upfront, honest and professional, which we absolutely appreciated. We 100% recommend Paul and Finsol!
Reuben Herries and his team have helped me and my parents into our first home. We are very grateful to Finsol, who go beyond to make sure all our documents are on time, check in on our progress every day, keep us up to date with everything and are easy to talk to. We highly recommend Reuben to anyone looking to get their first home.
Excellent communication and advice, 100% recommended Paul to guide you through the process and get what you need.
I had the privilege of working with Doug on my business and residential lending, and he was brilliant. He kept things simple, saw mine and the lender's views, and worked hard to make ends meet. I called it #DougMagic. One and a half years later, we upgraded into a bigger new house with his help yet again. If anyone needs a finance specialist, I highly recommend Doug at Finsol.
Could not recommend Finsol and especially Gareth any more strongly. In one meeting Gareth managed to devise a plan to halve our annual ACC bill resulting in a 5 figure cost saving. Absolutely stoked! Thanks again, team.
My partner and I received financial advice and planning from Gareth at Finsol. We also had contact with others at Finsol about our mortgage. The entire process was friendly and easy. Gareth provided us tailored advice that was realistic. We left feeling excited and sure about our financial future. I would highly recommend Gareth and the rest of the Finsol team to anyone looking to implement their money goals.
Great service. Clear and concise advice. Top quality people who genuinely care about your wealth-building needs. Thanks!
Gareth and the team at Finsol were so thorough and professional when we reviewed our insurance structures with them, and the quality of Gareth's knowledge and advice was exceptional. I also think that if we did need to submit a claim Finsol would go above and beyond to ensure the process went as smoothly as possible. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Finsol for those looking to have their insurances sorted.
Big thanks to Nadeesha for making our dream come true. It was the best Christmas gift ever. She's simply the best mortgage broker we could have ever hoped for. She gives her 110% and is always reachable at any time of day. She has plan B if plan A fails, luckily for us plan A worked as she gave her best effort to see it through. We will highly recommend her for anyone and definitely contact her again for oursecond home.
Jordan is thorough and professional and offers excellent advice and service. He is trustworthy and easy to deal with and takes the stress out of dealing with the banks. We have used Jordan's service for all our private and business insurance and our mortgage and cannot recommend him enough.
I've worked with Paul for the past 12 months, and his knowledge of the property and financial markets is second to none. There are a lot of advisers out there, but few understand the intricacies of the market at the level Paul does. I fully recommend Paul to any property buyers who are on the hunt for a highly skilled home loan adviser.
Paul has been a pleasure to work with. He provided advice about an investment property as we were heading overseas - he did not have any services for us or anything ‘to sell us’, but he was still happy to help. We had two calls with him, and he was knowledgeable, professional, honest, responsive and overall a good person. I would 100% recommend working with him. Thanks Paul!
This company stands out from the rest. Where so many try to sell you something and forget about you, Finsol listens and hears your needs and understands what you’re trying to achieve.
If you want to talk to people that believe in what they are doing, if you want to be heard, and if you want to feel certain that someone is going to go into bat for you and work to get you the outcome you desire - give Finsol a call. You won't be disappointed.
Nadeesha Ranasinghe was truly the best broker we could have ever hoped for. Was there for us every step of the way and always made herself available. Went the extra mile to help us in any way she could, will be using her again for our next home as she is truly amazing, highly recommend!
I cannot recommend Gareth and the rest of the Finsol team enough. If you are looking for ethical insurance advice then look no further. Gareth was thorough in his initial review and his recommendations and advice was exactly what we needed. I look forward to working with Gareth and having him look after our family for years to come.
Friendly, approachable and easy-to-understand advice is given.
Gareth is fantastic to deal with. He is easy to understand and is great at listening to our needs and matching what is appropriate for us. It's obvious he has plenty of experience, and we wouldn't hesitate in recommending him to others.
My husband and I went through Finsol when buying our first home. Our mortgage broker, Reuben, was incredible! Super helpful, quick to respond and informative - it definitely helped to keep us calm in the stress of buying our first house. Would highly recommend!
The BEST advice I have received since relocating to NZ from Europe 10 years ago. Trying to navigate the maze of insurance providers and policies was going to be a nightmare at the best of times, but not with Gareth at the helm. Thank you so much, Gareth and the team at Finsol. I’m definitely going to recommend you to everyone needing insurance advice.
Very friendly and professional crew, and boy they are efficient! I really enjoyed that every document they sent I could sign on my mobile and saved the hustle of printing and scanning papers. As sustainable as it can get. Thank you!
It was a pleasure to have Kareem as our mortgage advisor. He has extensive knowledge and experience in his field. He guided us efficiently through the process of purchasing our first home. He made remarkable suggestions for choosing a suitable property and explained well in detail all our clarifications. He had been mostly available to answer all our financial queries. I highly recommend him.
My situation was a bit out of the norm and a little tricky, but Paul worked his magic and got it over the line for us. My advice is to ring for a chat about what you are looking to achieve. These guys are good at what they do and know their stuff! Thanks again.”
Paul provided my wife and I with excellent advice and comprehensive cover at the right price. We found him to be professional and open, and he communicated what can be complex into context we easily understood.
Just as importantly, the team radiates through their words and deeds a sense that you're dealing with people who strive to be positive influences through all their actions. This level of social consciousness combined with their first-rate business acumen means we plan on being long time clients of Finsol
Gareth was fantastic to deal with. He is extremely efficient, knowledgeable and a great communicator. He is not pushy at all and had my best interest at heart including changing a provider as it suited my needs better after more information was attained. Highly recommend Gareth as his team.
Two years ago, my son was diagnosed with cancer, and his world changed drastically. We contacted Gareth, and he handled the claim, which removed all that stress while we were coming to terms with the diagnosis. Gareth's ongoing help and advice have been above and beyond anything we expected. We have nothing but praise for the service we have received.
Hayden has been awesome for us; he went the extra mile with our lending, allowing us into our dream home. He also takes care of all our insurance and has put together a package that's perfect for us; we never felt like he was trying to sell us something we didn't need.
We're profoundly grateful to Finsol for helping us through what otherwise would have been a confusing and nerve-racking process. We wouldn't have been able to secure our home without Reuben's help - he patiently walked us through the entire process. I would highly recommend working with Finsol. They go above and beyond to help you secure the home you want.
We cannot thank Paul at Finsol enough for his professionalism, expertise and hard work in helping us purchase our first home. The service we received from him was exceptional! We could not have asked for a better financial adviser to guide us through the process. Paul went over and above what we were expecting and turned our dream into reality. We would be very happy to give Paul our highest recommendation for anyone wanting to buy their first home. He is definitely one of the best! Thank you again!
Gareth and the team are awesome! They made everything with our family and personal insurance so easy and stress-free, and they go the extra mile to help with anything needed. Thanks guys!
I recommend Paul to anyone looking for a financial adviser. He’s always giving his clients 100% and making savings wherever he can. He has already saved me money with my ACC, and he continues to advise and help me understand. I cannot thank him enough.
Gareth and Finsol were really awesome to deal with. Gareth was really easy to talk to, always gave us multiple options to look at and explained everything clearly so that we understood properly. Once we decided on what we wanted the application process was super easy and everything went smoothly. I highly recommend Gareth and Finsol.
Cannot recommend finsol enough! My partner and I have been working with Paul for the past 2 and a half years as he helped us secure a home loan for our first home. As it was a new build which we bought off the plans, the process took longer than expected due to Covid and other things out of our control, but Paul made what was a very stressful time as easy as possible and worked hard to give us the best advice and best possible outcomes. Paul was always happy to answer any of our questions (we had lots of them) and made everything as simple as possible. We have now gotten our life insurance through Finsol too as Paul and the team are just so easy to work with. We look forward to continuing our services with Finsol and will not hesitate to contact Paul for future home lending.
We have been with Finsol for a number of years. Throughout this time, we've received outstanding and professional advice and service. We thought buying a house was an impossible dream, but with the help and guidance from our mortgage adviser Reuben, it quickly became an achievable goal. We are so thankful and proud to be clients of Finsol.
Would like to extend our highest praise for the work Nadeesha, Jess & Danya in particular have provided us. Nadeesha and Jess assisted us in getting out of a very unfavourable financial position with our home loan, where we are now fully informed. Highly appreciative of how easy and streamlined the process has been. On top of that Nadeesha kindly forwarded us to Danya to reorganise our health insurance. As per my original experience with Nadeesha and Jess, it was refreshing to have such great customer service with Danya. The review and proposal came through in record time with genuine care for the job at hand. Could not be happier with Finsol, from what we've experienced I have no doubt the same workmanship is carried throughout.
Nadeesha was super friendlyand helpful. I still can't believe how fast she got the mortgage sorted with the bank! Can't thank her enough.
I have had the pleasure of working with Kareem over the past few years. He has helped many of my clients secure the finances needed to achieve their property goals. Kareem is a master of his craft and a lovely person to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-quality mortgage broker.
Paul Ejamme and the Team at Finsol have provided my family and I with excellent service over the years! We love dealing with Paul he's a down-to-earth bloke, he responds to messages all hours of the day and gets us results. Paul and the team have helped us through some challenging times to buy our first home, funeral, and insurance, starting a business and mortgage cover being off work due to injury. I recommend finsol to all our friends.
Paul was amazing to deal with. Made getting a mortgage effortless and stress free. Highly recommend Paul and will be using him again for my next venture!
Gareth and his team from Finsol are fantastic to work with. I can't say enough about how much they have helped me with Insurance and KiwiSaver. They make the whole process easy and they take into account your personal circumstances and offer solutions that work for you. I highly recommend the Finsol team.
I cannot recommend Paul at Finsol highly enough. We have used him twice now for very tricky lends, and both times he has gotten it over the line for us. His communication is excellent, and I also really value the way he manages expectations throughout the process. He works with a level of integrity and efficacy that I admire and appreciate. Finsol has been a great company all around to deal with; we wouldn't go anywhere else.
Superb experience. Very pleased with their service and attention to detail. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic, values-based insurance brokers. Kia ora!
We've worked with Hayden for a number of years. His advice, knowledge and support have been awesome and we highly recommend him for all matters of finance and insurance.
What a fantastic company to deal with. Gareth has been amazing throughout the time spent on our family’s insurance. We found Gareth to be unbelievably proactive and professional and at the same time looking out for our best interests. I will be yelling Finsol from the rooftops!
Thank you to Nadeesha and the whole team at Finsol for theprofessional support and help they provided in order to get our first home. Highly recommend their services.
Jordan is amazing, he has exceptional standards and outstanding professionalism, yet he is down to earth and displays genuine care for his clients. He knows the products in detail, and always has our best interests at the forefront of any decision. Having Jordan take care of our insurance needs has been a weight off our shoulders. Thanks Jordan - you rock!
Danya has provided exceptional service during my transition to my new policy. She listened very well to my situation, offered alternative options and thought of the best solution for my needs. I would highly recommend Danya's service to my networks as a financial advisor from Finsol.
I highly recommend talking to Jordan about life and medical insurance. He fully takes care of you and makes sure your every want/need is fulfilled. Best service, and he did it all over the phone with me as I live seven hours away. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else.
Kareem was awesome to work with. He was very understanding and helpful every step of the way with our application. His approach was always in our best interest, and we found him to be insightful and informative. I will not hesitate to refer and recommend. Thank you for helping us own our home
Paul at Finsol is absolutely amazing. Right from day one he had our best interests at heart. We hit a few bumps getting a mortgage, but Paul always had a solution. Now we are living in our own home and it is amazing. I highly recommend Paul for all your mortgage and insurance needs.
