Working with Ash Hermiz as a mutual client's lending specialist was a pleasure. Ash ensured the transaction was seamless and smooth. He was always available and across the matter.

I worked alongside Ash Hermiz on a recent property deal for mutual clients. Ash was great to work with, he was responsive and facilitated a smooth transaction without any issues. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Ash again or recommend him for our future clients.

Kiril, Arkadiusz, Bryan and Katherine at Strategic Finance & Buyers Agents Sydney are incredible. They made purchasing our first property an absolute breeze. Their combined expertise and genuine care guided us through every step of the process. I highly recommend this fantastic team to any first-time buyers!

Thank you so much JP for the kind words and for trusting the Strategic team with such an important milestone.
Buying your first property can feel overwhelming at times, so we are thrilled to hear that Kiril, Arkadiusz, Bryan, and Katherine were able to make the process feel smooth and manageable from start to finish.
Our goal has always been to bring together buyers agent expertise, lending guidance, and property financial advice under one roof so clients feel supported from every angle, not just during the purchase itself but in building a long term strategy as well.
We truly appreciate the recommendation and look forward to supporting you again as your property journey continues.

Katherine brought real expertise and genuine commitment to my property search in Sydney. She helped me sharpen my brief, sourced a strong range of options across different areas and price points, and ultimately identified an off-market property that I wouldn’t have found independently.
What stood out was her ability to manage a complex settlement process with composure, navigating shifting circumstances on both sides without losing momentum or letting the deal unravel. That kind of steady, solutions-focused approach under pressure is rare and genuinely valuable.
If you’re buying property in Sydney and want someone who combines market knowledge with sound judgment and strong negotiation, I’d recommend Katherine and Strategic Agents without hesitation.

Thank you Warren for the thoughtful review and for trusting Katherine and the Strategic team throughout the process.
Sydney property transactions can become complex very quickly, especially when circumstances are changing during settlement, so it is great to hear that Katherine’s calm and solutions focused approach helped keep everything moving forward with confidence.
One of the biggest advantages of working with an experienced Buyers Agent is having someone who can refine the brief, uncover opportunities that are not publicly available, and navigate negotiations strategically when pressure builds. Pairing that with sound property financial advice is what allows clients to make decisions with clarity rather than emotion.
We are thrilled you secured an off market opportunity that may otherwise have been missed, and we really appreciate the recommendation. Katherine will be very grateful for the kind words.

Ash from Strategic Investor Group has been absolutely outstanding throughout my entire home buying journey. He worked with me for over a year until I finally made my purchase, and throughout the whole process he was patient, supportive, and always kept in constant contact.
No matter how many times my circumstances changed, Ash was always happy to speak with different lenders, explain my options clearly, and guide me in the right direction. He truly went above and beyond to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
What really stood out was how easy and streamlined he made everything. Anytime I had questions or concerns, Ash was always there to help and provide reassurance.
If anyone is looking for a broker, honestly stop looking — Ash is the person you want on your side. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you again Ash for all your hard work and support!

Thank you Eddy for such an amazing review and for trusting Ash throughout such an important journey.
Spending more than a year working through changing circumstances requires patience, consistency, and a genuine commitment to finding the right outcome, so it is fantastic to hear you felt supported every step of the way.
What you described is exactly how we aim to support clients at Strategic Investor Group. Combining lending expertise, property financial advice, and buyers agent support so clients can make confident decisions as their situation evolves.
Ash will really appreciate your kind words, especially around communication and always being available when needed. Congratulations again on your purchase, and thank you for allowing us to be part of the journey.
Jenny Nguyen2026.05.18
Working with Ash on my mortgage was a smooth experience from start to finish. I didn't have to spend hours researching lenders or trying to make sense of all the options myself as Ash did the hard work for me. The whole process moved quickly, which I appreciated. Ash was also very patient with me when it came to answering any questions I had and clarifying the process. I would recommend him to other people.

Massive thank you to the integrated team at Strategic Finance & Buyers Agents for helping us navigate our first home purchase on the Lower North Shore! Couldn't rate them high enough and looking forward to continuing to work with them all more.
From day one, our Buyers Agent team - Kiril, Patrice and Cam - helped us distil our broad thinking into a clear set of priorities and a strategy that allowed us to move quickly and confidently to take advantage in a softening market.
What really stood out was how collaborative and flexible the process was. They brought us a wide range of opportunities while also thoughtfully analysing properties we found ourselves, making it feel like a genuine partnership throughout. We were able to cycle through a long list of properties rapidly and narrow down to a few key options to pursue in detail. The team was always available and we loved both the in-person inspection support and also video walk-throughs while we were working!
We also had fantastic support from Bryan and Ash from the mortgage broking team, who seamlessly guided us through the lending process end-to-end and moved incredibly quickly once we found the right property. Their advice around structuring our finances, using multiple funding sources effectively and building long-term wealth was invaluable to secure a competitive rate and optimal approach.
Overall, the negotiation support across both the purchase and lending sides was outstanding, particularly navigating vendor motivations, a mid-process job change and increasing our borrowing capacity. We couldn’t recommend the team more highly :)

Chris, thank you so much for such an incredible review. Helping first home buyers secure a property on the Lower North Shore in a changing market is never a small task, so we are grateful you trusted the Strategic team to guide you through it.
What you described really captures how we aim to work with clients. Combining buyers agent support, lending strategy, and property financial advice into one integrated process so decisions can be made clearly, confidently, and quickly when the right opportunity appears.
Kiril, Patrice, and Cam will really appreciate the feedback around collaboration and partnership. We believe the best outcomes come from working closely with clients, pressure testing opportunities together, and helping narrow broad ideas into a focused strategy that aligns with both lifestyle and long term wealth goals.
Bryan and Ash will also be thrilled to hear this. Navigating lending during a job change while coordinating multiple funding sources requires experience, structure, and speed, and it is great to hear you felt supported throughout the process.
Congratulations again on securing such an outstanding first home, and thank you for allowing us to be part of such an important milestone.

Johnson2026.05.05
Twelve months ago I had savings with no real plan.
I knew there was potential, but I didn't know what to do with the resources I had or how to begin the property journey without making a mistake.
From the first few calls with RKDS (Financial Adviser) and even when he referred me to Kiril (Buyers Agent), the approach was different.
Instead of being told what to do or sold, I was asked the right questions.
What am I willing to tolerate in the short term, and what does my long-term picture actually look like?
It made me stop and really think about what I was working toward.
Throughout the whole process, the team gave me the knowledge and then trusted me to take it away, reassess, and come back with feedback.
That balance of education, patience and professionalism made all the difference.
I spoke to other brokers along the way. Everyone had an opinion.
But after working with Bryan my lending specialist, the path forward just felt right. It was aligned with my actual situation and goals. Bryan was consistently patient, clear, and informative, helping me understand the details of my loan while guiding me through each step of the process.
The result:
I purchased my first property through a structure that feels aligned with my goals and circumstances.
If you're at that early stage where you can see the potential but don't know what to do with it, I'd highly recommend speaking to the team.

Thank you Johnson, this is a seriously thoughtful review and we appreciate you taking the time to share it.
What you described is exactly how we approach things. Not telling clients what to do, but asking the right questions so the strategy actually reflects your goals, risk tolerance, and long term plan. You leaned into that process, took the time to understand it, and that is what allowed you to make strong, confident decisions.
It is also great to see RKDS, Bryan, Kiril and the wider team recognised. Bringing together property financial advice, lending structure, and buyers agent support is where we see the biggest difference in outcomes, and your result is a perfect example of that working well.
Congratulations again on your first property. A strong start like this sets the foundation for everything that comes next, and we are glad to have been part of the journey.

I had an excellent experience working with Katherine and recommend her highly.
From the beginning, she took the time to understand what I was looking for and found me a property that exceeded my expectations. Her knowledge of the market and approach to negotiation made a huge difference—she was able to secure the property at a great price, which I could not have achieved on my own.
Throughout the process, she was professional, responsive, and supportive, guiding me step by step and making what can often be a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable.
What stood out was her genuine commitment to acting in my best interests. I always felt confident that I had someone in my corner advocating for me.
If you’re looking for a buyer’s agent who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and results-driven, I would absolutely recommend working with Katherine.
Reply from Strategic Finance & Buyers Agents Sydney2026.03.30
Thank you for the kind words and for placing your trust in our buyers agent Katherine.
Taking the time to properly understand what you are looking to achieve is where the process starts for us, so it is great to hear that this translated into securing a property that exceeded your expectations. Katherine’s market knowledge and negotiation approach are a big part of how we help clients gain an advantage they would not typically have on their own.
Knowing you felt supported, informed, and well represented throughout the process is exactly what we aim for.
We really appreciate the recommendation and are glad Katherine was in your corner to deliver the outcome.
Thank you.

We contacted Kian directly based on personal recommendation from a family member who had worked with him a few years ago. We found ourselves in a situation where we were purchasing and selling right at Christmas time and with simultaneous settlement in early February. Throughout the entire process Kian was one or two steps ahead on everything that needed to be done, prompting us about things that we needed to action or be prepared for. He provided us with a range of mortgage options which clearly considered the things that we were looking for in a lender/mortgage. His communication with us was exemplary, and he made sure to let us know how/when he would be contactable across the Christmas/New Years period. We were grateful to have had Kian work with us through the entire process and would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends.
Reply from Strategic Finance & Buyers Agents Sydney2026.03.22
Thank you Peter for providing us this outstanding feedback.
Purchasing a property is hard enough but adding a simultaneous settlement into the mix certainly does take it up a notch.
Congratulations on their purchase of your new home, wishing you many years of happiness there.
Thank you also for giving us a 5 STAR rating.
