Derek Milligan
finance broker

Derek started his Finance journey initially focusing on areas where he felt there was a lack of expertise within the industry, servicing the self-employed sector. Over the years this focused approach evolved to further include commercial, investment and construction finance. 

 

With Derek’s extensive experience in construction, and particularly with actively handling a number of major townhouse developments / estates, he not only assists the purchasers with achieving their property goals, but also consults vendors on the finance aspects for their projects from concept stage through to settlement to ensure the project can be delivered as seamless as possible.

 

Derek strives to provide the best possible outcome for our clients and works passionately to achieve this, with the belief that being there to assist someone to achieve their lifetime goal is enough reward in itself. The challenges, at times, of getting there is where he thrives best.

 

During his free time he enjoys trying to become a better soccer player than his wife. It's still a work in progress.
