    We absolutely loved working with Bernard and Lavinia. From the very beginning we felt like we were part of their family, and particularly for first home owners, they took us through each step slowly to make sure we were comfortable. I could not recommend them more highly!

    Bernard and Lavinia have been wonderful to work with. They have complete understanding of what I need which in turn has led them to get the me appropriate package with one of the major banks. The turn around has been very quick. Communication has been very crisp. I recommend them for any of you looking for great mortgage agents.

    The experience, process and service provided by Blank (Bernard, Lavinia & team) far exceeds that of any bank. From start to finish the team give you confidence and comfort that you’re in the right place. Extremely experienced and professional, yet personal!

    Bernard constantly worked around the clock through the multiple challenges that came with our application and he filled us with the confidence that he could get it done. The Blank team was always so supportive going above and beyond throughout the entire process working around the clock always willing to answer all our questions and queries as first home buyers. We will 100% recommend Blank Financial to all our friends!

    The experience working with Bernard and his team is exceptional. Highly recommended! And now I get my pre approval only in 2 days after the submission even proves how efficient they are at their jobs and on top of their communications with me. Thank you Bernard!

    Thank you Bernard for helping us rearrange our financial requirements and particularly for being so accessible and responsive even late at night and doing all the legwork and back and forth for us throughout the process. We’ve barely had to lift a finger, you’ve thoroughly taken care of all the background things and kept us informed and on top of things the whole way through. Things also happened very quickly and efficiently. We also believe you have secured the best product available for us in the market and we thoroughly appreciate your time and research into making that happen. It’s been so easy and pleasant working with you and your team. We thank you so much, Nadia and Leon.

    Thank you, Bernard, for all your help and support. You have been our trusted advisor, and we appreciate all that you have done for us to secure a complex loan. I would highly recommend Bernhard to anyone who wants to leverage his network to secure a great loan. Not only did Bernard meet our execrations. He exceeds them throughout the entire process going above and beyond, late-night calls and getting us approval in record time. Truly amazing. I greatly appreciated his support and responsiveness from his team.

    Bernard, Lavinia and the team at Blank are exceptional operators, their professionalism and commitment to delivering customer satisfaction was second to none. Taking the time to fully understand what was important coupled with clear and concise communication, with seamless tech-savvy processes, led to a remarkable experience; first chat (Melb Cup public holiday!), application, unconditional approval and executed docs in 8 days -- absolutely unbelievable and demonstrates the outstanding industry experience, thorough understanding of credit policies and most importantly, Bernard's credibility with lenders. Bernard, you provided us confidence throughout the entire process, I genuinely appreciate your efforts and thank you for negotiating a brilliant outcome. Cheers, David

    The team at Blank financial are a joy to work with. Bernard and Lavinia are responsive, patient and always willing to guide you through what can be a very challenging and nerve-wrecking time. They helped us get a great deal on a home loan and went above and beyond during the purchasing stages to make sure we we're equipped with everything we needed to purchase our home. I can't recommend Blank Financial highly enough!

    Bernard was very professional and very efficient. My husband and I were told we couldn't get the finance we wanted so we switched to Blank Financial recomended by my sister who was very happy with his work. Bernard is a very positive person and gave us hope. Within a week, we got pre approved for our dream home. Thanks Bernard for your efficiency and professionalism, and we will definitely recommend you to our friends and family and anyone who needs a great financial broker. Paul &Nat Atgiaras.

    Bernard and his team were a pleasure to work with, they took time to understand our goals and tailor a package to suit our family. Their knowledge and understanding of the banks policy and procedures were instrumental in us getting our loan approved. We were kept up to date every step of the way until unconditional approval!

    Jo and I wanted to take this opportunity to personally thank you for your service and guidance in refinancing our current home loan but helping us secure our first investment loan. Your service was first class and professional throughout the journey, answering our queries, advising the next steps and always being available no matter what time of day. Your customer service is first class and go above and beyond with the example of you personally hand delivering our signed home loan documents to CBA due to the postage service current delay in turnaround. Thank you again

    We have used Bernard for many years now. He is a consummate professional and a very good communicator. He was always looking for the best deal for us and kept us informed of all of our options throughout. We were very happy on the deal Bernard secured for us on both a refinance for an investment property and a new loan for an owner occupied property. Highly recommend.

    Bernard and Lavinia have built a faultless, client-centric broker business. It seemed like nothing would ever stop them in helping us get our home loan over the line, we are truly grateful Bernard and Lavinia.

    David and I have been looking to get a house for about a year now, but with this market and pandemic, it has been a difficult journey from losing auctions and not being able to find the right opportunity. We reached out to Bernard and his team a couple of weeks ago and just like that we now finally have a place to call home. David and I couldn't believe it, they worked so efficiently that we wish we could have prolonged the process. It was definitely a wise choice to choose Blank Financial to help us, they were very responsive and proactive in finding what was right for us during a pandemic. Even though we could only meet through zoom, Bernard was personable and gave us so much confidence in his words. I would definitely recommend him and his team to my family and friends. Thank you so much Blank Financial!

    On behalf of Roy and I, I would like to sincerely thank you and your team for helping us through our first home loan. Blank has gone above and beyond to assist us through all the hurdles. Not only were you available all times through the day to answer questions and clear doubts but also provided exceptional communication and trust. You have made our first experience one to remember! Look forward to working with you again soon.

    Where do I begin? Bernard has been giving me advice for months during my property search, and when the time came, he really took the stress out of buying a home and getting my finances sorted. Bernard gave me the right advice, took the time to ensure everything ran according to plan, and worked tirelessly to get my finance through on time without a hitch! If you are looking for a broker, look no further!! Thanks Bernard & the team, I really appreciated you hard work! Will continue recommending you to family, friends and clients.

    This is my second time working with Bernard and it has been another great experience. He has gone out of his way to get me the best rate and outcome possible. I could not recommend him highly enough. Thanks again Bernard.

    2 Year 8 Months 17 Days ago

    My experience dealing with Bernard and his team has been absolutely faultless. From the moment I spoke to Bernard I felt confident that I was in good hands, and was dealing with someone who knew what they were doing. All my questions were answered thoroughly and Bernard was completely transparent throughout the process. I hit a couple of bumps in the road and Bernard was able to overcome them for me, he does not submit to the lender until he is absolutely confident of an approval. My approval took 7 days! And he believed it would have been quicker if we hadn't struck a difficult lending manager. He went above and beyond getting information for me and I was treated more like a friend than a client. Bernard's reputation preceeds him, and all the positive reviews are true. I won't use another broker ever again. Thank you Bernard, I will recommend you to everyone!!!!!

    Bernard and Lavinia went above and beyond all of our expectations - after a bad experience with another broker we were recommended to Blank and were delighted with their service. Bernard and Lavinia are a pleasure to talk to and communication was prompt and professional. We couldn't recommend them any higher!

    My partner and I have just received our approval documents from Macquarie Bank which has all been set up by Bernard and his team. We had a tricky situation where we had recently moved back from the UK and both commenced new employment. We had spoken directly with Westpac and NAB as well as other brokers who fell away when it all got too hard. Bernard was the only broker who thought outside of the box to ensure we got the result we were after and we are very pleased. In the end he had 4 separate valuers through the different bank applications so we could leverage and select the best option for us. We also enjoyed his FaceTime calls all throughout the day and night (not sure if he ever sleeps!) so he could update us with any news.

    2 Year 10 Months ago

    After loosing confidence in our broker 3 days before bidding at auction our estate agent recommended Bernard saying she believed he was the best in Victoria. Within an hour he was face timing us - personable, kind, 100% understanding of our situation and working endlessly for us he had our loan approved in a day. I simply can not recommend Bernard and his team highly enough.

    Bernard and Lavinia helped us refinance our two loans. Bernard’s knowledge, professionalism and service is why we keep coming back. Phil and I have been clients for over six years and we appreciate the insights and guidance from Bernard. My current bank was not interested in talking to us and made no effort to retain us. That is why instead of Bank loyalty we choose Broker loyalty. Bernard and Lavinia are not just great professionals but great humans.

    Bernard and the team at Blank were very professional and took the time to understand our situation. Bernard explained the different options we have and was very clear in his explanations.

    Bernard and the Blank Financial team came highly recommended to us and we were not disappointed in the outstanding service and assistance provided. As first home buyers my partner and I had many questions, concerns and even some doubts that we would be able to find our home in a very competitive market. The Blank team’s knowledge and expertise were invaluable to us throughout our home ownership journey. We cannot thank Bernard and the team enough for guiding us through the process to successfully purchasing a property. Bernard’s integrity and knowledge was unmatched from our very first inquiry and we will continue both recommending and using Blank’s services ourselves in future.

    Bernard has always been the most helpful since the very beginning of our journey towards home ownership. He’s been there for us when we initially bought a home, and now we’re refinancing. In fact, he proactively contacted us about refinancing, and made it a very hassle free experience, as always, and as expected of him. He indeed is our broker for life!

    Great personalised service from Blank Financial who walked us through the complexities of refinancing our home loan and investment property. Bernard and Lavinia followed up on all our questions quickly and provided regular updates. The advice received and the new arrangements put in place are saving us over $10k in the first 12 months. Would highly recommend getting in touch with them. Thanks!

    We have recently refinanced 3 properties and cannot compliment Bernard Desmond highly enough for his thorough research, hard work and looking around to find the best possible interest rates and conditions for us. Bernard and his wife Lavinia are terrific to deal with and have made what could be a complex process much simpler. They are also extremely responsive and always updated us on the progress of our loan applications. We are very happy to recommend them. Jason & Susan Close

    Bernard assisted my partner and I with acquiring our first home. He has shown us patience, persistence but most importantly - passion in what he does. Not only does he exhibit an impressive skill set with his many years of experience and abundance of knowledge, he also has an incredible ability to uplift you with his positivity. If it were not for Bernard’s constant reassurance and support, this process would not have been so pleasant and delightful. Bernard, thank you for your time and kindness, it is clear to see why you come so highly recommended. For anyone and everyone looking to buy their first, fourth or tenth home - I can confidently say that Blank Financial will see you through.

    We came to Bernard to discuss obtaining a loan for our first home. We had spoken to other brokers previously but Bernard explained everything in detail to us and ensured our first meeting was in person which made us feel more comfortable. He explained all of our options and worked closely with us to get us the best loan possible. We couldn't recommend Bernard more highly!

    Bernard has been my mortgage broker for many years. He helped me get my first mortgage and has just ensured approval for my next one. His professionalism and communication were unmatched by other brokers I had spoken to prior to engaging him, I would highly recommend him and the service of Blank Financial.

    3 Year 3 Months 13 Days ago

    Great service with clear and concise explanation! Bernard was only too happy to tend to our questions (of which we had many, being with the same lender for a great many years). Bernard took us through the process step by step and made even the harder and more arduous tasks easier for us. Would definitely recommend Blank Financial to others seeking to start or change up their mortgages!
    Natalie Church

    3 Year 3 Months 20 Days ago

    Highly recommend Bernard to anyone wanting to refinance or apply for finance. Bernard got us an amazing deal and we are financially far better off as a result. He got back to us promptly with any questions and help we needed no matter the time of day or night. We were working towards a tight deadline which Bernard ensured was met. Bernard was friendly, professional and efficient. Thank you

    Bernard has been an absolute professional from start to finish during the process of me buying a land and house package. As a first home buyer, I trusted his knowledge and expertise to guide me through the process of securing a home loan. The timing of my settlement date was just before the Christmas season, I was very impressive with Bernard getting both my land and construction loan approved on time. I really appreciated his guidance on the process and the recommendations he offered me for other services along the way. For example - conveyancers and home inspectors. I would highly recommended Bernard to anyone who is looking for a mortgage broker and will continue to use his services in the future. Thanks Bernard and Blank Financial!

    Blank Financial have been absolutely amazing in the service they provided us getting our loan approval. We had an impossible deadline that Bernard worked all night to push through to the bank (literally all night!) We are beyond grateful for his help, and cannot recommend his services highly enough.
    Tim Dobson

    3 Year 4 Months 6 Days ago

    Dealing with Blank Financial has easily been the best thing my partner and I have done when sorting out our home loan. We both just assumed we would go with one of the big 4 because they originally gave us pre approval. With the information we gave Bernard was able to find us a much more competitive rate with far fewer ongoing fee's, which over the life of the loan add up dramatically. He made the process so easy and stress free for us, it allowed us to focus on all the other thing that come up when moving into a new property. I was blown away by his attention to detail, as well as his response time if we had any questions, literally any time of the day or night. I couldn't recommended Blank Financial any more highly.
    Caroline Gonsalvez

    3 Year 4 Months 8 Days ago

    Extremely happy with Bernard’s professionalism and knowledge. He has made what could have been a very stressful process so easy. He always puts the customer first and always prompt to answer to calls and messages. We wish Bernard all the very best for the awesome work that he does with his customers. Highly recommend Bernard if you are looking for a professional and knowledgeable broker with excellent customer service.

    3 Year 5 Months 20 Days ago

    Bernard has helped us with the purchase of our second investment property. From the get go, he was very professional and went out of his way to offer us the best solution. This reflects his knowledge and skills as well as customer care and satisfaction. Bernard is a sincere and honest person who will deliver a service which will exceed your expectations. He will never make a promise he cannot honour. I strongly recommend his services.
    Ryan Shave

    3 Year 6 Months 3 Days ago

    Bernard continues to excel both in his personal and professional life. He deserves the highest praise both internally within the industry and externally from customers such as ourselves. He continues to really display high levels of emotional intelligence and always offering clients the opportunity to get independent advice from a third party. Bernard offers clients a diverse skills set and is someone with extensive knowledge both related to finance but also housing/real estate and general negotiations. I highly recommend using Bernard if considering making any major move in your life. Hope this helps whoever is reading this and thank you again Bernard for offering us such valuable assistance. Take care and stay safe.

    Bernard Desmond is a legend. This is the first time we've used Blank Financial but we'll be back for sure. We needed to refinance and Bernard worked so hard for us to get us the best deal going. Couldn't have got it without him. Best of all, he did all the hard work. All we had to do was sign on the dotted line. Thanks Bernard. Until next time...
    Jessica Turner

    3 Year 6 Months 25 Days ago

    Bernard Desmond was recommended to us by a friend and we couldn't be happier. As first home owners he was able to share his knowledge and expertise to guide us through the process of securing a home loan. Throughout the process he ensured we were informed and understood what was going on, even communicating with us after hours. We would highly recommended Bernard to anyone who is looking for a mortgage broker and will continue to use his services in the future.

    We were recommended to Bernard & Blanc financial through family members. Bernard worked closely with us and our accountant to get a good deal over the line. Being a small business owner in the current COVID climate, it was certainly not the best of times to be financing, but we all managed to work through it together patiently and achieved a favourable outcome for all. Thanks Bernard, Appreciate your advice and service! :)

    Working with Bernard and Blank Financial has been a great pleasure. As a customer it was a very seamless and highly efficient refinancing experience.

    Bernard is an absolute pro. He certainly lives up to his many awards and reputation within the industry. As a first home buyer new to the market, Bernard did an incredible job of allaying the fear and trepidation that comes with making key decisions and supports you every step of the way. Bernard is calm, personable and has incredible attention to detail and an ability to get the job done - no matter what hurdles you (or the bank) put in front of him. I couldn't recommended Bernard any higher, a person you can trust and count on throughout the stress of purchasing a home.

    Bernard has been one of the most efficient professionals we have met. Every touch point was facilitated online which we highly value during this time. Bernard has been responsive, even after hours, and addressed any queries in a timely manner. We highly recommend Bernard and would use his services again in the future.
    Dominic Salvato

    3 Year 9 Months 3 Days ago

    I was looking for a better deal on my home loan and also some service, Bernard and his team not only saved me $1,000s in interest but also ensured the approval and settlement process was smooth. His experience in knowing which lender to use for your employment type and who is quicker to get the job done was also on point. I would recommend that if you are looking for a broker you call Blank first. He is the best and he delivers on his promises.
    Jason D’Silva

    3 Year 9 Months 8 Days ago

    Bernard is a gift to the mortgage broking industry!! I’ve dealt with 5 different mortgage brokers and Bernard is leaps and bounds above the rest. When my previous broker was unable to organise a refinance for me Bernard took on the challenge and was able to get me an amazing interest rate with a better bank in such a short time frame. From the initial moment Bernard contacted me to the end of the journey I found the experience super professional and extremely timely for a process that took me over 2 months with the previous broker. My advice to anyone that needs help organising finance would be to give Bernard a call as he makes a normally complex and stressful process super easy.

    Outstanding Service We couldn't have purchased our first home without Barnard Desmond. First home in a new city everything is overwhelming! It was certainly not a straightforward process with various hurdles along the way but Bernard was outstanding and was on top of everything in a very professional manner and did exactly what he promised by going above and beyond our expectations. Highly recommend.

    Bernard and Chris were absolutely phenomenal throughout this process! They completely exceeded my expectations and everything went perfectly. Blank Financial uses the latest technology for this process which makes it 1000 times easier than it was in the ‘old days’. I have managed to secure the best rates on the market and take advantage of the offers available. All with a minimum of fuss. Chris and Bernard never stop working and this dedication to their customers means that even during this covid-19 period my re-financing went through smoothly. Thankyou so much Blank Financial! I would highly recommend everyone to use Blank Financial. Tim Thomas

    Without Bernard's support we would not have been able to finalise the difficult sale and purchase of our old and new properties. Bernard's expertise and prompt service made this stressful situation achievable. I have and will continue to recommend and use Bernard's services.

    Professional, diligent, efficient and thorough, Bernard is an outstanding broker. As a first home buyer the process can be daunting, however Bernard engenders a sense of trust that he absolutely knows what he is doing and that he is working towards creating the best possible outcomes for you. Bernard's communication is incredible and he certainly goes the extra mile to explain the entire loan application process - from pre-approval right through to settlement. Not only does he explain, he physically walks you through it and connects you to additional supports where required. We always thought we would 'go it alone' through this process, I'm glad we didn't and couldn't recommend Bernard highly enough!

    A million thanks to Bernard for securing us the loan. I have dealt with many mortgage brokers in the past. Never seen such a wonderful and awesome person as Bernard. We were in a very difficult situation when we approached him. He had to go through a lot of hurdles and finally came up with solutions for fetching us the loans. We deeply respect and thank him for the solutions he has provided us with. We would like to wish Bernard and his family all the very best in health and growth in their lives for many years to come.

    Could not thank Bernard enough for all the hard work and effort he has put in with getting me my first home He has made every step of my journey so easy and always went out of his way to help me. Being a first homebuyer I had no idea what was going on but he was there to help at any time whether it was meeting me at my workplace if I couldn’t get time off work or catching up with me after hours to get documents signed! I highly recommend Bernard if you’re looking for either a new broker or if you need one for the first time, he will make your journey a lot less stressful Unlike some people in the industry he actually wants the best deal for you and always has your best interests in mind.

    Bernard was outstanding to deal with. His communication was excellent, was always available, whilst his attention to detail was second to none. Considering the tricky circumstances of our loan, Bernard worked very hard to get the best outcome for us, in the shortest period of time.

    Bernard Desmond has been very helpful and cooperative with our home loan needs. He understood our requirements well, gave us an accurate picture of our loan capacity and what our cash flow will be post the loan. He did not only give us the short term visibility of the loan but also looked in the long term perspective of financial planning. I found him very knowledgeable, accomadative and an expert in the loan market domain. Above all his amazing sense of humour and spontaneous reaction adds pleasure to the loan experience. It's been the best loan experience that we have had and will recommend him to all our friends and acquaintances. Thank you again Bernard.

    Excellent Service, Best in the Industry: 13 months ago I contacted Bernard for my 1st home loan, he was agile, spot on and very accommodative to customise the loan to my needs. The 2nd time ( few days ago) I was reluctant to go back to him thinking that he may not be as responsive as this is the second home loan from him and of a much smaller value. But he proved me wrong. In fact my home loan this time had a tight timeline of 1 month settlement and was not an easy approval. Bernard was even faster on my Loan application than the 1st time. This time again he was very adjusting, available on the phone 24x7 and met all deliverables( including timeline and amount) of the home loan. I did my homework and hunted for other home loan offers, but his offer on interest rates and other important factors was the best in the market. I tried to find a loop hole in his working style, but I could not find any. His rich experience in the Loan Market, depth of knowledge and customer focus makes him the 'GO TO MAN' for any home loan. I have recommended him to all my friends and all have come back with a great feedback about him. Double Checked: Best in the Industry Services are guaranted, from Bernard Desmond. When its a home loan requirement, go to Bernard Desmond. Jasvinder Undoubtedly

He is very honest, hardworking and absolutely professional, Within a short time we where signing our home loan, I couldn’t believe it.

    We were looking at refinancing our existing mortgage. Bernard was fantastic. He asked a set of specific questions to help him to shape what lender products were the most suitable for our needs. He then presented those options in a simple easy to understand manner, and was able to quickly answer all of our silly questions. After we moved providers he's been available to any of the questions we have, and has always been willing to help out. I would definitely recommend him.

    Choose Bernard Desmond as your mortgage broker, you won't be disappointed. Bernard treats all of his clients as if you an ultra high net worth individual. The bank got our loan with kept asking for additional valuations which was delaying our loan and potentially putting the whole situation at risk. Bernard fought to get the bank to accept documentation it already had and we got everything approved in time. Bernard has got your back!

    Behind Bernard’s welcoming smile is a workaholic who treats you like you are his only client. I engaged Bernard to help me pay for a financial separation. Not only did he make a daunting situation possible, he made it almost effortless. He was always available to answer my questions. He found a lender that could help me, at a lower rate than my current mortgage, and played a major part in orchestrating a fast settlement. I do not hesitate to recommend Bernard.

    I want to thank Bernard for his assistance in getting us the finance required to fund a new home build. I had been dealing with another broker prior to Bernard who was a close friend of ours, he was unable to get the full finance to fund our build and we stood to loose 16K deposit if we walked from our contract, to say we were shattered was an understatement. I was recommended by my brother in law who Bernard had assisted only weeks earlier. To be honest I thought if a friend of ours can't help how can anyone else. How wrong was I. Bernard took the time to listen to our unique situation and went to work to find a solution which not only meet but exceed our expectations. From the time we first spoke over the phone and then meeting up with him, he gave us the assurance and confidence that we could achieve our dream of building our home. The whole process was quick and stress free, as we were updated at every stage and to top it all off he also got us a better rate than our previous broker. If you are needing a solution for your finance, don't go anywhere else, as Bernard is second to none in this industry and I highly recommend his outstanding service to you. Once again thanks Bernard for all your help.

We did have some bother trying to get our bank to release the security of our property to the incoming lender for the new loan.

    As a First home Buyer and New migrant to Australia we were very fortunate to have had someone like Bernard by our side to guide us through the whole home buying process. Bernard was very patient with us from day 1 and took time to understand our requirements and helped through the entire journey. As working professionals both me and my wife were only available after hours he always made sure he was available for us. No question is too much and he works tireless to deliver an outstanding service for his clients. He is a very reliable broker and I would highly recommend his services to anybody looking at buying their a new home. Cheers.

Bernard was always very confident in his role and only offered the truth in every transaction which is fantastic as it allowed us to understand where we stood with the banking institutions. We have had great success in our loan application with him and look forward to working with him again in the future. Some stand out qualities for Bernard are definitely his commitment, persistence and passion for what he does.

    Exceptional broker who establishes a very personal touch to his service with his clients. Bernard went beyond what was expected travelling over 100KM to my home to help us refinance our house.
