Brisbane, Australia – GATHER Property, one of Australia's leading investment-focused buyers agencies, today announced the launch of GATHER Money, a comprehensive mortgage broking service delivered through strategic partnership with Entrust Finance. The new offering addresses a critical gap in the property investment journey by aligning finance and property strategy under one roof.
The partnership brings together GATHER Property's proven investment expertise with Entrust Finance's mortgage broking capabilities, led by Senior Mortgage Broker Acacia Lanham and Entrust Finance owners Kent Astridge and Jole McIntyre – both former GATHER clients who successfully built their own property portfolios through the service.
"Approximately 60% of our investor clients come to us seeking finance recommendations alongside property strategy," said Jacob, Founder of GATHER Property. "We recognised a gap where traditional finance advice wasn't always aligned with long-term portfolio growth goals. GATHER Money bridges that gap."
The new service differentiates itself through genuine integration between finance and property strategy. Unlike traditional models where buyers agents and brokers operate separately, GATHER Money ensures finance structure, property strategy, and long-term wealth goals are considered holistically from day one.
"Having been a GATHER client first, I experienced how seamless the process could be when property and finance work in harmony," said Acacia Lanham, Senior Mortgage Broker at GATHER Money. "Now I can work side-by-side with our buyers agents to ensure clients have strong finance terms that give them an edge in negotiations."
Key benefits of GATHER Money include:
"The finance landscape for property investors is shifting quickly with tighter lending criteria and more scrutiny on serviceability," noted Jole McIntyre, Partner at Entrust Finance. "Investors need to be more strategic than ever. GATHER Money is built around that mindset – we don't just arrange finance, we align it with the client's property and wealth strategy from the start."
The launch comes at a crucial time as Australian property investors navigate changing market conditions and lending environments. By offering both property acquisition and finance services, GATHER Money positions clients to act quickly on opportunities while maintaining long-term portfolio viability.
