He founded Amica Finance with the belief that meaningful financial decisions deserve thoughtful guidance and a genuine long-term partnership rather than a transactional approach. Samuel works closely with clients to understand not only the immediate objective, but the broader context of their lives and ambitions, ensuring each lending structure supports where they are heading, not just where they are today. Known for his calm and considered approach, he guides clients through every stage of the process with clarity and steady support, helping simplify complex decisions so they can move forward with confidence. Samuel believes the best professional relationships are built on trust, transparency and genuine care for the people behind the numbers. Outside of finance, he values personal development, health and fitness, travel and meaningful community connections — interests that reflect the same philosophy he brings to his work: that financial success is ultimately about creating the freedom to live well, and Amica Finance exists to support that outcome.

I highly recommend this company, they are very easy to talk to and they are fast and reliable in obtaining our pre approval. We are indeed lucky to have them helping us to buy our first home..A big thank you to Christian Dal Cin for everything that he has done for me and my family. He is tremendously working so hard in every step of the way for us to be able to get the property we wanted and needed.

We can’t thank Samuel from Amica Finance enough for his support throughout our mortgage process. His knowledge, professionalism and steady approach made a real difference to our experience. He took the time to guide us through the process and helped us feel that we were in good hands, even when things got a bit complicated. Securing a mortgage can be overwhelming, but having someone like Sammy in your corner makes all the difference. We’re so grateful for his help and would highly recommend him and Amica Finance to anyone looking for a broker who genuinely cares about their clients. Thanks Sammy!!

I can't recommend Sam at Amica Finance highly enough. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Sam was always available to answer questions, regularly taking calls after hours and making time for us whenever we needed advice or reassurance. What really stood out was his willingness to help us navigate aspects of the property purchase that went well beyond what I would have expected from a mortgage broker. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and it was clear that Sam genuinely cared about getting the best outcome for us. His knowledge, professionalism and dedication made a huge difference throughout the entire process. We're incredibly grateful for all his hard work and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sam and Amica Finance to anyone looking for a mortgage broker who genuinely goes the extra mile.

I couldn’t recommend Christian highly enough! From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make the whole mortgage process as smooth and stress free as possible. Christian was always available whenever I needed him, no matter what time of day it was, and was incredibly responsive to every question and request. What really stood out to me was how committed he was to helping me even while he was overseas on holiday, he still prioritised my situation and made sure everything kept moving forward. His knowledge, professionalism and genuine care for his clients are second to none. I always felt like I was in safe hands and that getting the best outcome for me was genuinely important to him. If you’re looking for a mortgage broker who actually goes the extra mile, I would 100% recommend Christian. Absolutely deserving of 5 stars!
