From the inside
of the banking system
Before becoming a mortgage broker, Adrian spent years inside the commercial banking system — managing a portfolio of over $150 million in commercial lending and working directly with business owners and sophisticated investors. He saw firsthand how banks assess risk, where applications succeed, and where they quietly fail.
That insider knowledge is what makes Adrian different. He doesn't just submit a loan application and hope for the best. He structures your lending the way a senior banker thinks — anticipating the questions lenders will ask before they ask them.
Adrian's background in accounting laid the foundation. His move into commercial banking sharpened his eye for cash flow, tax implications and long-term portfolio strategy. Today, those skills are fully directed toward one goal: helping clients build wealth through property — whether that's a first home, a growing investment portfolio, or a complex refinancing strategy.
"I started Hanson Finance because I kept seeing clients leave money on the table — or worse, get declined — because their lending wasn't structured properly. That's a problem I can fix."
The numbers
behind the experience
Built for investors.
Ready for everyone.
Investment Property Lending
Adrian's core speciality. From first investment property to multi-property portfolios, he structures lending around long-term growth — factoring in cash flow, tax implications, equity and your next acquisition.
Complex Lending Structures
Commercial banking experience means Adrian is comfortable with complexity — SMSF loans, trust structures, self-employed applicants, and situations where a standard bank application simply won't cut it.
First Home Buyers
Not just applying for a loan — navigating every Queensland grant and scheme available. FHOG, First Home Guarantee, stamp duty concessions and Help to Buy. Adrian makes sure first home buyers get every dollar they're entitled to.
Refinancing Strategy
Refinancing isn't just about chasing a lower rate. Adrian reviews your entire loan structure — rate, features, offset accounts, loan splits — and models the actual saving versus the cost of switching before making any recommendation.
Professional Packages
Doctors, nurses, accountants and other professionals can access LMI waivers and preferential loan structures. Adrian has the lender relationships and knowledge to make sure professionals aren't leaving thousands in savings on the table.
Long-Term Wealth Strategy
Adrian's clients aren't just buying a property — they're building a plan. He works with clients who are 5–10 years from retirement, helping them structure lending today so their portfolio is positioned for tomorrow.
The Hanson Finance
approach
Straightforward advice. Proactive communication. A genuine interest in your long-term outcome — not just settling the loan.

An accounting background means a sharp eye for numbers. Loan comparisons, repayment modelling, break-even analysis on refinancing — Adrian does the maths so you know exactly what you're agreeing to.
Every loan recommendation is made in the context of your broader financial position and goals. Adrian thinks about your next property before you've settled your current one.
You speak with Adrian from your first enquiry through to settlement. No hand-offs, no junior staff taking over, no losing track of what was discussed three weeks ago.
Finance can be complicated. Adrian's job is to make it simple. Plain language explanations, honest assessments of what's achievable, and no jargon unless it actually helps.
The person
behind the broker
Finance is what Adrian does — but it's not all he is. The same discipline and focus he brings to complex lending structures is what you'll find in everything else he takes on.
Started motorcycle racing 5 years ago. The same way he approaches complex lending — methodical preparation, calculated risk, and no shortcuts.
