Allison Arienda

Client Success Officer

Allison Arienda is a Client Success Officer at AXTON Finance

Allison is the driving force behind our commitment to client success at AXTON. From the moment a loan application begins, she ensures everything is submitted accurately, efficiently, and on time. With expert knowledge of lending and a friendly, detail-oriented approach, she’s an invaluable guide throughout the entire loan journey.

Beyond supporting client settlements, Allison leads our Client Reprice Process—a proactive annual review of each client’s loan designed to challenge their current lender and secure the most competitive rates available. Her goal is simple: to ensure our clients continue to benefit from sharp rates long after their loan has settled.

With Allison in your corner, you can feel confident knowing someone is always looking out for your best interests. When she’s not helping clients achieve great outcomes, Allison enjoys playing games and writing fiction, bringing the same creativity and strategic thinking to her hobbies as she does to her work.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do rental income and tax benefits affect my investment loan application?

Investment properties offer unique advantages in terms of rental income considerations and tax benefits, but these vary based on your individual circumstances and the specific property. The tax implications can be complex and should be carefully considered as part of your overall investment strategy. Book a consultation to understand how these factors apply to your situation and investment goals.

Can I use equity in my existing home to buy an investment property?

Using existing property equity for investment purchases is a popular wealth-building strategy, but the approach varies depending on your financial position and goals. There are several structuring options available, each with different benefits and considerations. Our experts can assess your equity position and explain your options during a complimentary consultation.

How much can I borrow for a home loan?

Your borrowing capacity depends on various personal and financial factors. While general guidelines exist, your actual borrowing power is unique to your situation, income, and financial goals. The best way to understand your true borrowing capacity is through a personalised assessment. Contact us for a free consultation where we'll provide you with an accurate borrowing estimate tailored to your circumstances.

Can I refinance my existing home loan or investment loan to get a better rate?

Refinancing can offer significant benefits, but whether it's right for you depends on your current loan terms, financial situation, and future goals. Market conditions and available products change regularly, so it's worth having your loans reviewed. Contact us for a free loan review to see if refinancing could improve your financial position.

What deposit do I need for an investment property loan?

Deposit requirements for investment properties vary between lenders and depend on your overall financial profile. While there are general guidelines, your specific situation may open up different options or require alternative approaches. Let us assess your circumstances in a free consultation to determine the most suitable deposit strategy for your investment plans.

What documents do I need to apply for a home or investment loan?

Documentation requirements vary depending on your employment type, loan amount, and chosen lender. Rather than providing a generic list, we prefer to give you a personalized checklist based on your specific situation and loan type. During your free consultation, we'll outline exactly what documents you'll need and help streamline your application process.

What types of home loans does AXTON Finance offer?

We offer a comprehensive range of home loan solutions including owner-occupier loans, first home buyer packages, refinancing options, and specialised lending products. Every situation is unique, which is why we work with multiple lenders to find the right fit for your circumstances. Book a free consultation with our experienced brokers to discover which loan options best suit your needs and financial goals.

How long does the loan approval process take?

Processing timeframes can vary based on your situation, chosen lender, and current market conditions. While we work to expedite every application, each scenario is different. The best approach is to discuss your specific timeline needs during a consultation, where we can provide realistic expectations and work to meet your settlement requirements.

What is an investment property loan and how does it differ from a home loan?

Investment property loans are specialised financing solutions designed for rental properties. They have different requirements, benefits, and tax implications compared to standard home loans. The specifics can vary significantly based on your investment strategy and financial situation. Schedule a free consultation with our investment property specialists to understand how these loans work and whether they align with your investment goals.
