Lachlan Veal
Director, Qualified Mortgage Broker & Property Strategist
My name is Lachlan Veal and if we've spoken over the phone, there's a good chance you've already heard my voice.
I'm a father of two boys, a qualified mortgage broker, and someone who has spent the last five years working in the property and wealth creation space.
Over that time, I've worked alongside some of Australia's leading investment and wealth creation businesses, helping families understand how to build assets, create financial independence and ultimately work towards a self funded retirement.
My experience as a mortgage broker has added another important piece to that puzzle. I've seen first hand how much the right lending structure, ownership structure and strategy can matter over a 10, 15 or 20 year period. Getting the foundations right early can potentially save hundreds of thousands of dollars and, more importantly, give you the flexibility to pursue opportunities as your circumstances change.
Play the long game.
You'll hear us say this a lot. Because we don't believe wealth creation is about getting rich overnight. It's about making the right decisions consistently, year after year.
You might be looking for your next property today. That's important, but we're more interested in where you want to be in 10 years, 20 years and beyond.
What does financial independence look like for you?
How many properties do you ultimately want to own?
Do you want the option to retire early, build a business, live overseas, or give your family greater financial freedom?
Once we understand the bigger picture, we can work backwards and build an actionable strategy around it, reviewing and adjusting the plan as your life and opportunities change. Because this isn't supposed to be a transaction. It's a relationship built over the long term.
While I specialise in property finance, I also believe your strategy shouldn't stop at the mortgage. That's why we've built relationships with trusted professionals across the areas that can matter as your wealth grows, from mortgage and insurance brokers, to conveyancers, independent building and construction professionals, and specialists who can help explore international investment, offshore diversification and global mobility strategies.
You don't need to have it all figured out today. You just need to know where you want to go. From there, we can work out the next step.
Let's play the long game.
