Clients of Crown Money share how the program helped them pay off debt faster without cutting their lifestyle. They highlight the supportive service and strategies that made the difference in reducing their loans.
We seem to be working a lot and then not really getting anywhere with our money.
Just found we just couldn't pay off anything off of our debt. We were just treading water.
We changed a couple of times just to try and get a better deal, a better rate. But actually, I think we realised that you just keep extending the term, it's not actually doing you any good.
When Craig went through, you know, what we could achieve in that initial appointment, and I thought it was too good to be true, you know, because you think, what have we been doing up until now?
We just didn't think our money could work for us that quickly.
A real, completely different way to looking at the financing, because it was not about the best interest rate on the market. It was about how quickly can you have your financial freedom.
We've had an extremely positive experience on the program. It exceeded all of our expectations.
It really has stunned us because we've been paying off, on average, about $8,000 a month off our loan.
The first 12 months really did take us by surprise. Actually became a little bit addictive because you could see how much you were knocking off.
The last 12 months we paid 80,000 off our home loan and previously we only would have paid off just under 10,000.
There was no way we expected that much money off in 12 months.
It is better than anticipated. We managed to pay within first year, 46, 47 thousand dollars.
We actually own about 90% of our house now. After three and a half years, I.
Could see a change almost within a few months. We could see the loan being reduced, which we couldn't see before, and we hadn't really stopped anything. We continued our lifestyle and we're not being overly frugal.
You know, we're still spending money and going to restaurants and in the last few years we've had some overseas holidays as well. And yet we've been able to do all of that and still achieve everything that we have.
Before you talk to Craig, you're under some sort of illusion about rates, headline rates, and that's really deceiving.
I think the big difference is that Crown are focused on your paying the debt as quickly as possible and give you the strategies to do that.
You're getting service that just keeps on going. They don't just sign you up and leave you. They sign you up and they stay with you and they keep on being there for you all the way through. That's going above and beyond and you're not going to get that from any bank.
I feel more in control.
I think it makes you feel less stressed about your money.
So we're getting our loan down but still enjoying life at the same time.
Definitely. Get on board and you'll be amazed what your own money can do.
It's proven, really, that it does work. There's no way we would have saved that amount of money or paid that amount of money off if we'd have continued on the path that we're on.
My parting word would be sometimes we think things are too good to be true, but this actually does work, and I'd recommend anyone to give it a go.
