Mortgage Broker 

Phil Morgan’s business philosophy is to deliver “Triple-A Service”, by being available for his clients “Anytime, Anywhere, Anyhow”.

“Over my 25-year career in the banking and finance industry, I have built my reputation on delivering service first, sale second. I am committed to providing the professional service that I would expect myself,” he says.

“I support my clients by listening carefully to their wants and needs to get an understanding of their motivations and objectives. I then formulate a decision/recommendation that aligns with their circumstances and make a point of involving them in all decision-making.”

As well as providing expert assistance and guidance over the loan application period, Phil remains available to his clients after settlement. “To ensure the loan continues to benefit my clients over the long term, I offer ongoing customer support for the duration of their loan.”

Friendly and approachable, Phil prides himself on building rapport and connecting with clients on a personal level. “I enjoy getting to know my customers, the sport they play or follow, or finding out more about their occupation and what it entails.” Over the years he has built a loyal customer base that generates repeat and referral business.

Phil’s expertise is underpinned by extensive industry experience. “I have been involved in home loans and business lending since 1989,” he says. “Prior to becoming a mortgage broker, I worked with ANZ Bank for 22 years, including 16 years in a lending environment.”

He has received a number of industry awards for client care and high achievement, both individually and as part of a team, and says the most rewarding aspect of being an adviser is being able to help clients achieve their goals of home ownership. “Nothing beats a client’s excitement when a loan application is approved.”

Outside of work, Phil is an avid Dockers supporter and enjoys golfing, jogging, and spending time with his daughter.

Phil has the expertise and resources to assist with all types of loans, including Home & Investment loans, Commercial loans, Rural finance, Asset finance and Personal loans. He is a long-term resident of South West WA, and offers a mobile service across the region. “I’m fully accessible to clients, whether it’s in the office or at their place,” he says. “I always enjoy a catch up at my clients’ residence if this suits them better.”
