About us[ staff profiles ] Who is ProCorp Finance and AFG, I haven't heard of them?? ProCorp Finance is part of the ProCorp Group of companies, based in the Macarthur area of Sydney. Danny Craven was initially recommended to management of the ProCorp Group by a local business person, who thought that he was well suited to this progressive company wishing to expand its operations outside of the Sydney metro area. ProCorp Finance is an important part of the group, with myself also being a well known Finance Broker in their local Macarthur area. The group also has interests involving Real Estate, Residential Building, Property Development and other Rural 'Activities. ProCorp Finance is also part of the Australian Finance Group (AFG) which is the LARGEST Network of independent professional Finance Brokers ih Australia. Although you may not have heard of AFG before, it is a larger than both Aussie Mortgage Market and Mortgage Choice. As AFG is a Finance Wholesaler, it leaves its Brokers to manage and market their own businesses independently. This is the reason that AFG has little recognition in the marketplace, as all of its Brokers operate under their own independent name. The partnership of D.J & J Craven (ProCorp Finance Batemans Bay) has been formally appointed by AFG and is the only AFG Broker currently operating in the Eurobodalla area. AFG Brokers are required to maintain high levels of professionalism, ongoing training and our unique ' Flex'computer systems mean that any changes that effects your borrowing power, any new products and interest rates are updated daily. AFG is also supporting, new initiatives like "Electronic Lodgements" which is a way of the future in the Finance Industry. All of this means better service to for you. As part of a larger organization again the Australian Finance Group, ProCorp has access to a Panel of approx 30 Home Loan Lenders, which includes most of the Banks represented in Batemans Bay. Danny can also assist those experiercing financial difficulties through our 'Non Conforming' lenders, who may approve a loan that one of the m- ainstream lenders would normally Refuse. In addition to Home Loans, AFG Brokers have access to a range of Business and Commercial Finance. We can also arrange Motor Vehicle and Equipment Finance quickly, and our online systems allows loan documents to be printed in house. One of the main benefits of being an AFG Broker is that Danny is able to do more for Self-Employed and Business people than most other Brokers who are lim ited to just doing Home Loans for their clients. He also has years of Banking experience that is necessary to assist you with loan enquiries that are complex or for larger amounts. Deal with a Finance Brokers who Really Understands and Cares About YOU! Currently Australians use the services of a Finance Broker about 30% of the time. This figure has increased greatly since 1992 when only 1-2% of the Banks business came from Finance Brokers. This trend will continue as more Finance Brokers move into the market place and Banks continue to reduce experienced staff numbers and further cost reductions. This being the case, we expect this figure to grow considerably over the next few years, as indications from the US and UK show that people there are choos ing to use a Finance Broker about 65% of the time. So if you want start your relationship with a reputable Broker - now's the time!! To talk about your finances, just pick up the phone an make an appointment. Danny is happy to come and visit you in your home or at work, or alternatively you can enjoy the privacy and convenience of the new office in town. Danny understands that talking finance, buying a home or refinancing a mortgage can be a daunting task for those who may not have done it before. It is also one of the most important decisions that you will ever make, so it is very important to get the right advice and assistance The Good News is "You wont even - pay any Brokerage Fees for the Service. If Danny is able to settle a new loan for you with one of his Lenders, the Lender pays him for placing the deal with them. If he is unsuccessful in obtaining an approval for you, there still is no brokerage fees c harged!! That's a WIN WIN situation for you". What other professional person in town does not charge you a fee for their time?? So for peace of mind, when it comes to choosing your Finance Broker, deal with a local person that you can trust. Deal with someone who lives in our local community and has built a good reputation for over many years for professional and friendly service.
