Liston Newton is a full-service financial agency, and our team can help you fortify every facet of your financial life. From tax minimisation to business restructuring to personal investment strategies — simply let us know how we can help.

I recently had to refinance my Home loan and I was referred to Liston Newton Finance. From the outset, I was greeted by fantastic service, personable interactions and a can-do attitude. Nothing was too hard for the team and when contacted, issues were resolved directly over the phone. We had fantastic 2-way communication and we continue to get this support even after the Loan has settled.

Chris Duke

We were very pleased with Liston Newton's financial advisory services a few years ago and so when we bought our new home just recently we contacted them for lending advice. The service provided to was way above our expectations. The team kept us informed at all times and was continuously following up on the banks to ensure we met a very tight timeline. We couldn't speak more highly of Liston Newton for their dedication to customer service and knowledge in their field. We would highly recommend them.

Ally Wilkinson

Liston Newton helped us move our accounting over to Xero. Their Accountant managed the set up and training so we felt comfortable with the software. We now have all our processes streamlined which gives us improved visibility of our business performance. This has allowed us to open 2 more stores without a significant increase in administration effort.

Why choose us

Pursue your ambitions backed by proven lending strategies

It isn’t an exaggeration to say that assessing loan products is a mentally and emotionally taxing task. The right loan can be the bridge between you and your ambitions, whatever they may be. Our award-winning local lending specialists will help you build that bridge and achieve your goals.

Loan products exist purely in fine print, which is why it is so daunting to assess and compare them. Unravelling the knotted stipulations surrounding them requires clear eyes and a meticulous eye for details. These are qualities we have in abundance. Our loan specialists can help you:

  • Evaluate business and personal loans from reputable lenders
  • Construct manageable repayment strategies
  • Refinance loans to suit changing circumstances

While we can back up our confidence with industry awards and recognitions, you’ll find the most glowing praise in our client case studies. Read through them, and book your consultation at our Port Macquarie office today.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a home loan deposit?

Home loan deposits are typically 15-20% of the principal.

You may be able to secure a lower deposit by taking out Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), though that will necessarily increase your principal.

Any tips for paying off a mortgage faster?

Here are four tips for paying off your mortgage:

  • Do your research to find the lowest interest rate
  • Make fortnightly payments rather than monthly payments
  • Try to make regular additional payments
  • Place your savings in an offset account to reduce variable loan interest charges

These are general tips and not necessarily appropriate for all individuals and their loans. For tailored advice, get in touch and book a consultation with our Port Macquarie team.

How do banks approve loans?

Banks assess borrowers to ensure they can reliably service their loans. To complete that assessment, they’ll look at a range of factors, including:

  • Employment history
  • Savings and assets
  • Employment history and business ownership
  • Credit history
  • Debt

‘Artificial intelligence’ is a poor mimic. Why settle?

All emerging technologies go through a hype cycle. Developers, supported by engagement-hungry content mills, will pump out extraordinary claims. With AI tools, those claims tend to boast of social and industrial revolutions. It’s hard for the public, and many business owners, to separate meaningful claims from spurious ones.

At Liston Newton, we believe that AI is an excellent productivity tool and excels at performing rote tasks. But it is incapable of fact-checking, forward thinking or developing client-specific financial strategies. You can trust that every strategy we deliver for you will be masterminded by an accredited and experienced human being.
