Hello, I’m Mike Caris, Finance Professional
I’ve been a finance broker for 20 years, during which I’ve built a strong result driven reputation for providing innovative financial solutions.
By drawing on my own experiences as a business owner and mentor. I’ve personally owned a number of business’s, in electronics, security, an engineering company and a few cafe’s, a Financial Planning Group and lastly a full service Finance and Mortgage Business– so I do know first-hand how important it is to have someone in your corner.
I’m also a keen fisherman, a motoring enthusiast, a former motor cross and endurance rider, and have restored many vehicles and participated in a number of motorsports.
I like to win, and I take enthusiasm into every deal that I do!
My value proposition is founded on first-hand experience in running and financing successful businesses, I understand the ongoing financial challenges faced – and the stress this can bring, when you trust me to look after your finances you benefit from advice from someone who has been where you are today.
With access to multiple lenders, I know where to look for a solution to every scenario – so I will put your mind at rest, as quickly as possible in finding the right loan and repayments to suit YOU and YOUR budget.
I want your business, and available 24/7 to assist in financing or purchasing whatever your needs!
I am 100% committed to providing solutions that are independent and unbiased, I am not associated with any lender and I cover the complete market, no shortcuts or compromise and I pride myself on the ability to solve problems, whatever they may be, I simply won’t rest until I have found a way to make your life easier.
Our business is founded on the basis of trust and experience and my goal is always to secure the best solution for you and your friends, family and work colleagues. I kindly ask that all my clients think or refer me when they or anyone they know needs to borrow money for whatever reason give them my number and let me go to work for them.
I have formal qualifications in Financial Services, I hold the Diploma For Mortgage Consultants achieved with AAMC, a Certificate IV in Financial Services (Finance and Mortgage Broking) have completed a Diploma in Financial Services DIP FS and (Finance Broking and Mortgage Management) Dip FMBM, and have formally fully completed all the core DFP subjects required to obtain a Diploma in Financial Planning, Dip FP and I recently increased my competencies by completing the Advanced Diploma in Self-Managed Superannuation. I spent some time with AMP as a Financial Adviser and achieved entrance into their prestigious “top 300” Adviser Club. I was also the Managing Director of a New South Wales based Financial Planning Dealer Group with many advisers with whom I both mentored and advised over a 5 year period, the business was recently sold so I could continue to spend more time with my own clients, my family and mentor my sons into the business. I also hold a statement of attainment from the MFAA Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia and have been awarded the MFAA Credit Adviser ™ recognition. I did also complete the NSW Real Estate registration course and I regularly attend many continuing education sessions, high level Tax, Insurance and Investment education sessions and SMSF master classes .
As a self- employed business owner and family man, I understand the complexities of running your own business and a household. I have provided high level strategic advice and cost effective sustainable solutions to SME’s and their families and friends. I am active in supporting and promoting doing business with people whom do business with me and I seek to develop relationships with people that are happy to refer me to their network of family and friends.
I am passionate about people, providing lending solutions, and developing strategies for my clients. Having many years’ experience in finding financial solutions that meet client’s specific needs, I do pride myself on obtaining every clients big picture, and then shaping a solution to work with their specific requirements and I guarantee that they are my number one priority.
