Rated 5 Stars from our clients

I was EXTREMELY happy with the advise, professionalism & honesty whilst dealing with Brendon at FBM. Brendon managed to ease the stress and we were able to jump through the hoops one at a time. My husband & I are now living in the home we thought could possibly be out of reach. We are so pleased with the results. Thankyou Brendon for all your help, couldn't have done it without you.

My husband and l were having issues in obtaining a home loan with the bank we had been with for over 20 years. We approached Brendon Cowan at Finance Broker Melbourne PL who looked at our application. Brendon Cowan advised us on exactly what the issues were and how to rectify them in order to obtain a home loan that would see us buy our family dream home. We then engaged the services of Finance Broker Melbourne Pl dealing with Brendon Cowan directly in applying for our home loan and it was accepted by a bank with no further issues. Without the services of Finance Broker Melbourne PL we would not have been able to obtain the family home we had dreamed of. I highly recommend Brendon Cowan as a mortgage broker and would utilise their services again. Thank you to Brendon Cowan and his staff for their assistance in this matter we are eternally grateful. I would highly recommend Finance Melbourne PL.

I cannot recommend FBM highly enough. Sam and Brendon helped me to find a personal loan, they were incredibly responsive, and they did not stop until they found the solution that was right for me. And they were such a pleasure to work with - friendly and knowledgeable. I'm so pleased with their service, and I'll be back.

We previously dealt directly with 2 banking branch's which resulted in negative experiences. We wanted to apply for a Land and Construction loan and were about to throw in the towel until Brendan was recommended to us. From the get go Brendan was straight on to our case. He was calling and returning our calls straight away which did not happen previously. He, along with his colleague Michelle, made our experience extremely relaxed and positive. We would highly recommend their services to anyone interested in purchasing a land/property and would not hesitate to use them again. Thank you Brendan and Michelle

We also provide ongoing support throughout the approval process and remain available for future financing needs as your business grows.

How does using a finance broker differ from approaching banks directly?

Working with Finance Broker Melbourne provides access to multiple lenders through a single point of contact, rather than approaching each institution individually. We maintain relationships with numerous banks, non-bank lenders, and specialist finance providers, giving you exposure to a wider range of products and criteria. Our brokers understand each lender's preferences, application requirements, and approval processes, allowing us to match your circumstances with the most suitable options. This knowledge helps avoid unnecessary applications that may impact your credit profile. Additionally, we handle the complex paperwork and communication with lenders, saving you time and reducing the administrative burden.

Finance Broker Melbourne maintains ongoing relationships with clients beyond the initial loan settlement. We understand that business financing needs evolve as companies grow and circumstances change. Our ongoing support includes periodic reviews of your facilities to ensure they remain suitable for your requirements, assistance with variations or increases to existing facilities, and guidance on additional financing for expansion or equipment purchases. We also monitor the lending market for opportunities to refinance your facilities when conditions become more favourable. If issues arise with your current lender, we provide advocacy and support to resolve matters efficiently. Our team remains available to discuss new projects, acquisitions, or other financing opportunities as they emerge. This ongoing relationship approach means you have an established finance professional who understands your business and can respond quickly when opportunities or challenges arise. We view our role as your long-term finance partner rather than just a transaction-based service.

Before your initial consultation with Finance Broker Melbourne, gather basic information about your business including recent financial performance, current debt obligations, and the purpose of the finance you're seeking. Having your latest financial statements, tax returns, and recent bank statements readily available helps us assess your position quickly. Consider the amount of finance required, preferred repayment terms, and any security you can offer. For asset purchases, preliminary details about the equipment or property are useful. Understanding your business goals and how the proposed finance supports these objectives helps us identify the most appropriate solutions. Don't worry if you don't have everything immediately available - we can guide you through the documentation process. The initial consultation focuses on understanding your requirements and providing preliminary advice about suitable options. We then provide a detailed list of required documentation and work with you to prepare a comprehensive application that presents your business proposition effectively to potential lenders.
