Before Onyx Home Loans there was Onyx Finance. The late Greg Clough, founder of Onyx Finance in 2014, was a man committed to providing innovative finance solutions to his Australian clients with professionalism and understanding. Greg’s vast knowledge in the finance and property industries, coupled with his then unique ability to recognise that everyone’s situation is different, earned him a reputation as an industry leader who achieves what he sets out to for his clients. His hands-on approach and commitment to open communication formed the foundation of this 20 year old Aussie brokerage.
Fast forward to 2024 and Greg’s most dedicated and experienced mortgage broker Mel Wilson has taken the reigns and revitalised the newly renamed Onyx Home Loans.
During Mel’s 12 years as a mortgage broker she has been a consistent high achiever, exceptionally solutions-focused and committed to providing tailored customer service to all kinds of clients. Mel is dedicated to diversity, inclusivity, good humour and kindness, as much as she is to developing creative finance strategies and providing professional step-by-step guidance, no matter what her client’s situation.
Mel lives with her partner and has two young sons; they have an active family life, are regular gym goers and are heavily involved in the kids’ schooling and local community.
Mel is based in Sydney, born and bred in the Hills District where much of her client base has stemmed from. She is very community focused and sponsors and supports many community initiatives. Mel is a keen property investor and enjoys assisting her clients to build wealth via property investment.
