Partners
Access over 40 lenders and a trusted network of referral partners — all working to secure the right outcome for you.
Your Goals Deserve More Than One Option
When you work with a single bank, you see a single set of products. When you work with Financial Elements, you gain access to a panel of over 40 lenders — from Australia’s largest banks to specialist non-bank lenders — each competing for your business.
That breadth of choice is deliberate. We maintain our extensive lender panel so we can match every client with the loan structure, interest rate, and lending criteria that genuinely fit their circumstances. Whether you’re a first-home buyer navigating government incentives, a seasoned investor structuring a complex portfolio, or a business owner whose income doesn’t fit a standard mould, our panel gives us room to move on your behalf.
We don’t simply list lenders for the sake of numbers. Every partner on our panel is vetted for competitive pricing, reliable turnaround times, and a commitment to treating borrowers fairly. We regularly review our relationships so that the options we present to you reflect current market conditions — not yesterday’s deals.
Beyond lending, we’ve built a referral network of professionals who share our client-first approach. From conveyancing solicitors and property valuers to accountants and financial planners, these partners help ensure every aspect of your transaction is handled with the same care and expertise you expect from us.
The result? More options, sharper rates, and a smoother journey from application to settlement. If you’d like to learn how our panel can work for you, give us a call on (02) 9707 7888 — we’re always happy to talk through your options.
Our partners
Major Bank Partners
Our panel includes Australia’s leading banking institutions — the names you see on every high street. These lenders offer comprehensive home loan products with competitive variable and fixed rates, robust digital banking platforms, and the reassurance of government-backed deposit guarantees. Their scale means fast, reliable settlements and flexible loan features such as offset accounts, redraw facilities, and split-rate options. We leverage our volume relationships with these institutions to advocate for sharper pricing and quicker turnaround times on your application, helping you secure the best possible deal from a lender you already know and trust.
Second-Tier Bank Lenders
Beyond the big four, our panel features a strong selection of well-established regional and second-tier banks. These lenders frequently deliver lower rates and more personalised service than their larger counterparts, while still offering the security of an authorised deposit-taking institution. They are particularly competitive for owner-occupier loans, refinances, and borrowers with straightforward lending needs. Because these banks are actively growing their market share, they often provide faster credit decisions and more flexible approval criteria — advantages we pass directly on to you.
Customer-Owned Banking Partners
Credit unions and mutual banks operate on a member-first model, which often translates into lower fees, competitive interest rates, and a genuine focus on borrower outcomes rather than shareholder returns. We include several leading customer-owned institutions on our panel because they consistently deliver value for first-home buyers, young families, and borrowers who appreciate a more relationship-driven approach to lending. Their lending policies can be more flexible around employment types and deposit sources, making them an excellent option when a major bank says no.
Specialist Non-Bank Lenders
Non-bank lenders fund loans through wholesale markets rather than customer deposits, and that independence allows them to design products the traditional banks simply won’t offer. Our specialist non-bank partners are invaluable for self-employed borrowers, clients with complex income structures, and investors seeking interest-only or low-doc lending solutions. They assess applications on their individual merits rather than relying solely on automated credit scoring, which means more opportunity for a “yes” when your situation doesn’t tick every conventional box. We work closely with their credit teams to present your application in the strongest possible light.
Private and Commercial Non-Bank Lenders
For short-term funding needs, bridging finance, or commercial property transactions, our panel includes private and commercial lending specialists who operate outside the standard residential lending framework. These partners offer rapid approvals — often within days — and can accommodate unusual security types, development sites, and time-sensitive purchases where traditional bank timelines simply won’t work. We use these lenders strategically, ensuring you understand the costs and terms involved, so that speed never comes at the expense of an informed decision.
Conveyancing and Legal Partners
A smooth property transaction depends on more than just a good loan — it requires precise legal work from contract exchange through to settlement. Our trusted conveyancing and legal partners specialise in residential and commercial property transfers across New South Wales and beyond. They handle title searches, contract reviews, stamp duty calculations, and settlement coordination with the same attention to detail we bring to your finance. We refer clients to these professionals because they communicate clearly, meet deadlines consistently, and charge transparent, competitive fees with no hidden disbursements.
Accounting and Tax Advisory Partners
Property and finance decisions have significant tax implications, and getting the structure right from the outset can save you thousands over the life of a loan. Our accounting and tax advisory partners work with individuals, families, and small-business owners to optimise ownership structures, maximise legitimate deductions, and ensure your investment strategy aligns with your broader financial goals. Whether you need a pre-purchase tax review, entity structuring advice for an investment property, or ongoing compliance support, these professionals deliver practical, jargon-free guidance you can act on with confidence.
Property Valuation and Inspection Partners
Understanding the true condition and market value of a property protects you from costly surprises after settlement. Our valuation and inspection partners include certified property valuers, licensed building inspectors, and pest inspection specialists who provide thorough, independent assessments you can rely on. Their reports support both your lending application and your purchase decision, giving you a clear picture of any structural issues, maintenance liabilities, or valuation discrepancies before you commit. We recommend these partners because their reports are detailed, timely, and accepted by lenders across our panel.
