  • My name is Dr Masood Ansari of Sydney and I have worked closely with Patrick McGuire over the last two years in reviewing property investment opportunities. Pat has introduced me to an investment opportunity in high yielding property which has the support of the Federal Government.   His recommendations to me were very sound and the information he provided was accurate and professional.   I found Pat to be very reliable and easy to deal with and he does his homework.  I have no hesitation in recommending him.
