Bernie Lewis were instrumental in helping us get our first “low deposit” joint mortgage with Homestart (3 years ago) and now when we were ready to re-finance Jason was top of mind when I needed advice and he helped us get to the desired fixed rate mortgage we were after. This has saved us approx. $350 a fortnight in repayments and also allowed us to borrow enough extra to improve the the value of our house further with a new pergola and paving etc.

As I was a first home buyer three years ago I was very nervous to say the least, applying for a home loan and actually taking responsibility. With the pressure of the whole process, and the thought of owing that amount of money, I started looking for home loan agents and contacted a big four bank; thinking that’s who you call, who were very rude and had no time for a little first home buyer like myself who had so many questions, it seemed they just didn’t care.
I called Bernie Lewis Home Loans which was just around the corner from my workplace and got an appointment the same day in the afternoon. I left 30 minutes early and attended the appointment and was astounded at how relaxed and informative they were, all of my 20 questions were answered and more. After submitting my documents and finding out how much I could borrow, and the best options (which by the way was around 7-8 different lenders), they made it real easy to understand my circumstances and who to choose. As I was already looking at houses the next day, I put an offer in straight away and it was accepted the next day. Within 2 weeks Bernie Lewis Home Loans had my application approved and I was now a first home buyer.
I cannot thank Bernie Lewis Home Loans enough, not to mention James Lagudi my mortgage broker who made it all possible, and so easy that I was amazed that something so complex was so easy to do. It was because of this I also recommended my brother not long after, and he himself has now bought his first home. Since then I have returned to James for advice and he is still exceptional in what he does. thanks again.

I have the utmost confidence in my mortgage broker – Cindy, who walked me through the whole process with ease, tailoring the loan to my specific needs. Whenever I have any questions, she professionally and efficiently provides the information I need to make my decisions. I just wouldn’t go anywhere else.

As a first home buyer I found everything overwhelming. Cassandra was extremely helpful explaining the whole process of buying a house, not just the finance side of things. Very helpful.

Dealing with Evan is a pleasant experience. He is always very diligent, responsive and keeps customers’ interest in the forefront (even if it means loss of his own income). The biggest thing is Evan is trustworthy and very likely to give the right advice.

Tom is a gun! He was able to explain the jargon of switching mortgages in a way that was easy to understand. Tom filled us with confidence when making such a big financial decision in this weird climate. We’re grateful for his expertise and have already recommended his services to many friends!

I had previously recommended Cassandra for some clients of mine after they had been refused by their bank for a refinance. She was able to help them and they were so happy. I was then in a situation to look for a home loan for myself. Cassandra not only helped my husband and I secure the loan at a great interest rate but was thorough, knowledgeable and has great customer service skills. She always called to follow up or check on the progress of the loan. She also sent us a beautiful hamper and called us on the day of settlement. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

I was very impressed with how quick everything was processed and of professional Michelle was. I’m really happy with my new bank and so happy that the settlement went smoothly. I’ll look forward to using Bernie Lewis again in my future endeavours.

Andrew was very patient and empathetic to my personal situation. He made himself available to me via his mobile number 24/7 which I really appreciated. He helped me beyond what I would consider his role. He was honest and supportive and helped me realise my dream of owning a home with confidence.

Since 1990, I have used Bernie Lewis’ services, and have always found their staff to be very professional, compassionate and helpful. There is no slick, fast-talking sales pitch – instead, there is thoughtful, realistic and thorough guidance through the maze of details involved in securing, adjusting and maintaining a mortgage. Special thanks to Jason Garrett for assisting me through some challenging financial times over the past few years – very happy with the end results.
