Ascension were very effective at communicating the financial options available to us for the purchase of our first investment property. The information was presented clearly and efficiently, allowing us to make quick confident decisions. We will reach out to Joel and the team and Ascension again and without hesitation for any financial advice we may need in the future. Thank you for helping us take one step closer to financial stability.

Joel was very proactive in contacting us regarding our mortgage. He brokered a new deal at a better rate and kept us in the loop at all times. Would highly recommend.

Joel was professional, timely and helpful in assisting the financing of the new loan. He explained the considerations throughout the process and answered all the questions I had.

This is the second time we have asked joel to assist us in finding the best suited home loan for us. Joel always goes above and beyond and takes care of all the headaches that come with dealing with the banks .

We couldn't be more pleased with our experience with Joel. He is knowledgeable, responsive and proactive. Joel managed the process and provided relevant suggestions throughout for consideration. I will definitely be engaging Joel for any lending requirements in the future.

Joel was introduced to us by my in-laws after they went for a home loan with him. He was highly recommended and fully lived up to our expectations and more. His communication was second to none and we could always contact him at anytime about anything big or small. Joel was always up front with us in what we needed to achieve in order to get the pre-approval. Once we had found our home, Joel made the process seamless and very stress free. I could not recommend Joel highly enough and I will be recommending his services to anyone.

I would recommend Joel to anyone. Process was smooth and he explained everything to me in ways I could understand. Was a pleasure


Joel was great to deal with over a long 6 months of house hunting. He was very helpful with helping us make decisions and finding the best loan to suit our circumstances. He crunched the numbers numerous times for us over many different house options we had. We would recommend him to anyone looking at buy their next house.

This is the second time we have used Joel and cannot recommend him enough! Joel did a great job explaining complicated concepts in a way that was easy to understand, and we really appreciated the time he spent making sure that we were always comfortable and had our heads around everything. Joel was constantly in contact with us throughout the loan process and was always available to take our calls. We would happily use Joel again should we ever need a mortgage broker.

My wife and I first used Joel’s broking knowledge when he was with another company many years ago. He led us into our first mortgage for the purchase of our first home together. Joel took the time to source a product that was not only financially appropriate for us, but covered the features that we were after as inexperienced first home buyers. Since this first interaction, Joel has proven to be a reliable source of assistance and advice. The manner that he conducts his business is nothing short of highly professional. His services are carried out with the personal touch and a positive attitude. Joel is not only our broker, he has become an advisor for our personal financial matters to a level that he is now a trusted associate. Joel has sourced and negotiated a number of financial products for us and we have never had cause to question his guidance. Due to contractual arrangements out of our control, Joel was unable to carry on as our broker for a couple of years. Personally we could not wait for this time frame to lapse. We have now been back under Joel’s guidance with Ascension Finance for the past 6 months and he has already sourced a significantly improved financial situation that our interim broker had no inclination to do. It’s great to be back with a broker we trust implicitly. We have now known Joel for 15 years and Emma and I would not hesitate to recommend Joel Archer to anyone wanting a reliable, knowledgable and honest agent.
