“Matt, lives and breathes the local area and can connect with our clientele on many levels. It’s great to have another local in the team.”
Mr Clayton is well versed with the financial needs of the local community.
“Purchases in this Lower North Shore market are largely based on strategies, such as investment strategy or debt recycling,” he said.
“Yes there are the fundamentals of rate and repayment, but based on my experience, if you set up a sound strategy from day one, it will lead to a better outcome.”
