Money Quest Group has acquired Bernie Lewis Home Loans for an undisclosed amount. This corporate acquisition marks a significant consolidation in the Australian mortgage broking sector, with Money Quest expanding its national footprint by integrating a long-established South Australian finance provider.
Bernie Lewis Home Loans has served South Australians for over 35 years, specialising in home loan and finance solutions for first-time buyers, subsequent home purchases, investment properties, and refinancing. The company is recognised for its local, community-minded approach, with a network of mortgage brokers across Adelaide focused on understanding clients' financial positions and offering tailored recommendations. Money Quest Group operates one of Australia’s leading boutique mortgage broking businesses, supporting a national network of over 600 brokers. The group offers access to products from more than 60 lending institutions and is known for its comprehensive support for its network.
The acquisition is a strategic move for Money Quest to leverage Bernie Lewis's strong brand recognition, deep local market expertise, and established client base in South Australia. For Bernie Lewis, joining Money Quest provides access to a broader national network, an expanded panel of lenders, and enhanced support infrastructure, facilitating continued growth and service enhancement. The synergy aims to combine Bernie Lewis’s trusted local presence and community ties with Money Quest’s national scale and comprehensive resources.
This acquisition is poised to create a more robust entity within the Australian mortgage broking landscape. The combined business is expected to offer an even wider array of home loan and finance solutions, supporting more clients across Australia while maintaining the personalised, client-centric service that Bernie Lewis is known for in South Australia.
