Mortgage Broker

Richard Denholm became a mortgage broker in 2011 and has been in the business of ‘making dreams come true’ ever since.

‘For me, the focus is on maximising our clients’ chance of success so they can go on to fulfil their home ownership dreams and take control of their future. That’s what we’re here to do,’ he says.

Thanks to Richard’s extensive experience and high-level qualifications, his clients are in good hands. He’s worked in banking, accounting and finance for the past 30 years, during which time he’s accumulated an in-depth understanding of loan products and lender policies. In addition to his professional experience, Richard holds a Bachelor of Information Systems, an Associate Diploma in Business (Accounting) and a Diploma of Finance and Banking. ‘Undertaking years of study while working wasn’t always easy, but it demonstrates my dedication and commitment to ensuring I’m well equipped to provide every customer with a positive outcome,’ he says.

Richard works with every customer on an individual level. ‘When arranging a loan I like to obtain a full understanding of their situation and what they would like to achieve,’ he explains. ‘Part of my role is to identify any particular challenges or difficulties they may face in securing a loan, so I can assess their options and take them to a lender with a favourable policy for that particular issue. That’s where my extensive knowledge and experience as a broker comes in.’

As an enthusiastic ‘early adopter’ of new technologies, Richard says he strives to remain at the forefront of technologies to strengthen business operations and streamline the borrowing process for his clients. ‘I’m very thorough and very meticulous,’ he adds. ‘I pride myself on the fact that I give my clients 110 per cent.’

Based in Rokeby, Richard can assist clients across the Hobart metro region and southern Tasmania with home loans, first home buyer loans, construction loans, debt consolidation, and commercial equipment and car loans.

When he’s not in the office, Richard can generally be found on the golf course, where he plays off a handicap of 4.
