Own Your Home MUCH Sooner!
With The Help Of Your Local, Geyer Group
Lifestyle Financial Coach.

Cut up to half the term and save
Tens of Thousands Of Dollars in Interest.

Until now most home loans have been designed by the Banks and for the Banks and rarely cater for the needs of the borrower.

Did You Know? -
On a $100,000 mortgage you could well pay over $150,000 in interest alone, over the term of the loan.

Does that seem fair to you?

But it doesn't have to be like that. The Geyer Group can tailor your home loan and your investment loans to suit your families needs.

Do you want to get out of debt in up to half the time? Pay tens of thousands less in Interest without necessarily paying more in repayments each month? Then talk to your Local Gippsland Lifestyle Financial Coach today.

The Geyer Group doesn't only save you time and money on your home loan, but your Local Lifestyle Financial Coach can also show you how to capture every dollar that comes into your home. They can help you learn the three golden rules to financial Freedom and how to make your money work as hard for you as you do for your money.

Did you know?
It's of little real financial value to you to simply change mortgage lenders mid stream. In the first 12 years Banks get more than half of the interest payable and take the rest over the next 13 to 18 years. What is of value to you is to restructure your loan so that you minimise the interest payable and reduce the time it will take for you to become debt free. In fact, in many instances the Geyer Group can cut up to half the term off your mortgage without necessarily moving your mortgage away from your current lender and without you having to necessarily pay more on a monthly basis.

Doesn't that seem fairer to you?

To find out more simply call your local Gippsland Lifestyle Financial Coach on (03) 5195 5226 or on 0413 776 305.

The Geyer Group has Lifestyle Financial Coaches from Cairns to Adelaide and have been servicing regional and country clients for over 9 years. You own Lifestyle Financial Coach is only ever a phone call away.
