ABOUT US
We have never met an opportunity we didn’t like.
Blank gives you the opportunity to buy your dream home. Or third. To purchase the bottle of wine based on the tasting notes and not just the price. Or the opportunity to take your money further — like to the Italian vineyard where said wine is produced.
We allow you to do more when repaying smarter and refinancing more often — ideally every two years. Saving you lots over the life of, well, just that — your life. Affording you the opportunity to live
it to the most.

They say there are two guarantees in life, but Bernard securing your mortgage is now unofficially the third.
His confidence comes from 14 years of experience and an unequivocal desire to provide you with the most opportunity from your mortgage.

Supportive yet honest, Bernard has your best interest at heart and a blank piece of paper in hand, ready to fill it with plans and possibilities.
Bernard sees opportunity getting to understand you and your financial goals better than the rest. He’s personable and tenacious, giving you the ability to take your money further — like that ocean villa in Hawaii.
Lavinia Desmond
HEAD OF OPERATIONS
At the end of the day, you want to be sure that those with their eyes on your finances are not just seeing details, but opportunities too.
So, that’s exactly what Lavinia does and is passionate about. After all, managing money is Lavinia’s forte and it’s one that she has been perfecting for over a decade now. To Lavinia, your account at Blank is not just a number but a name too. As knowing who you are allows her to pay closer attention to your financial objectives.
Lavinia sees opportunity for you by regularly auditing your finances — and it is this consistency that sets her apart from the complacency of others. She’s compassionate and attentive, affording you the opportunity to be smarter with your money and for every bottle to be Champagne, not sparkling.
Catherine Tasis
Loan Administration Officer
As a right-hand to our mortgage brokers, Catherine knows that doing things right the first time creates you more of it down the line.
With three years of industry experience and the efficiency that only a working mum can attain, Catherine is equal parts smart and strategic. She brings balance to chaos, and opens windows for not just opportunity, but spontaneity. The latter of which is good for her, when it comes to describing her best assets (and unplanned weekend getaways). And good for you, when it comes to ensuring the strength of your loan assessment. File that under things you wish you knew before you stayed up all night worrying.
Most importantly, Catherine sees opportunity in being present. Because contrary to popular belief, time isn’t money; it’s how you spend what you save that creates the real value.
We are Blank.
Blank is for those who: want to own a home, own a home, or own lots of homes.
MORTGAGES
We see the opportunities that others don’t. Envisioning your life in your new home. And the electronic car of the future parked in the driveway.
REFINANCING
The money you could save over the life of your home loan could be enough to buy another one. And the celebratory Champagne to be exactly that.
INVESTMENT LOANS
If the opportunity for multiple loans doesn’t come knocking, we build a door. Knock, knock — you can take that to the blank.
Being different isn’t something we are afraid of. Because there is a certain confidence that comes with award-winning success.
