Meet Mike – Your Mortgage Broker Without the Bull
Hi, I’m Mike – founder of Zen Lending, proud Perth local, dog dad to Juno (the miniature schnauzer), and a firm believer that getting a home loan shouldn’t give you a headache.
With over 15 years in finance – from Home Finance Manager at Westpac to Small Business Manager at ANZ, and most recently as a broker with Resolve and Lendi – I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the needlessly complicated. That’s why I started Zen Lending. To bring calm, clarity, and common sense back into the finance world.
I work with clients across Perth and Australia-wide, mostly from the comfort of my Maylands office (or theirs). Whether you’re a first home buyer, growing family, savvy investor, or business owner, I take the time to understand what you’re trying to achieve – then find a solution that fits, without pushing products you don’t need.
No suits. No fluff. Just straight-talking advice, tailored recommendations, and lifelong support for wherever your property journey takes you.
Let’s make your next financial step feel like a smooth one.
Stress-Free & Straightforward
We cut the jargon and keep things simple. You’ll get honest guidance, clear options, and a smoother path from pre-approval to settlement – minus the headaches.
Personalised Solutions
No cookie-cutter advice here. We take the time to understand your goals, your lifestyle, and your future plans – so your loan actually works for you, not the other way around.
Extensive Lender Network
With access to 70+ lenders, from major banks to niche providers, we’ll match you with the right solution – whether you’re buying your first home, upgrading, or investing.
Why ‘Zen’ Lending?
Because this process doesn’t have to be stressful. I believe in clear communication, transparency, and making sure you always feel supported – not sold to. The Zen mindset is about staying calm and focused on what really matters: your goals, not the bank’s targets.
