Jenny BudimanFounder & Lending Specialist

Hi, I'm Jenny Budiman.

Finance, handled personally.

With 16 years in banking behind me, I help families and business owners across Melbourne buy homes, refinance, purchase commercial property and finance the equipment and cars they need. You'll deal with me from the first call to well after settlement.

Send an enquiry and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Sound familiar?

Most conversations start with one of these. Whatever yours is, there's a straightforward next step.

“We want to buy our first home but don't know where to start.”First home buyersPre-approval, first home schemes and a clear plan.“I think I'm paying too much on my mortgage.”RefinancingA full comparison, and a review every six months after.“We've found the right warehouse for the business.”Commercial propertyPurchase and refinance for business premises.“The business needs new equipment, or a ute.”Asset financeChattel mortgages and equipment loans.“I'd like to walk into the dealership pre-approved.”Car loansNew, used or private sale.

My promises to you.

Going above and beyond only means something if you can hold me to it. So here it is in writing.

  1. A prompt response.

    Send an enquiry and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

  2. One person, start to finish.

    No hand-offs to a processing team you've never met. I know your file because I built it.

  3. A rate review every six months.

    Every six months after settlement I check your loan against the market, without being asked.

  4. People I trust, when you need them.

    Conveyancers, accountants and advisers I can refer you to when it helps.

40+ lenders. One conversation.

Let's get you home.

Whether it's your first home, more room for a growing family or the place you'll retire in, my job is to make the finance the easy part: a clear plan, the right lender and someone who picks up the phone until the keys are in your hand.

With 16 years in banking behind me, I know what lenders look for and how to avoid the delays that can cost you the right property. You'll have pre-approval in place before you bid, a straight answer about what you can comfortably afford, and help with first home grants and stamp duty savings if you're eligible.

  • Pre-approval before you bidShop and bid with confidence, knowing your budget.
  • Grants and concessions checkedEvery scheme you're eligible for, factored into your plan.
  • Contract to keys, handledValuation, approval and settlement coordinated with your conveyancer.

Let's see the numbers.

A quick monthly estimate. When you're ready, I'll run the real figures with you against actual lender policy.

Estimate only, using the figures you enter. Not a quote or offer of credit, and it does not consider your objectives, financial situation or needs. Loan products have a comparison rate, fees and charges.

She is efficient, attentive to details, follows through closely with impeccable coordination… Jenny has also proactively negotiated for lower rates when the interest rate was falling back then without me asking.
Justin Ng · Home loan client, multiple purchases
She made my first home purchase so easy and stress-free! … She will definitely be my first and last broker manager for all the future properties!
Rachael Chin · First home buyer
We had a great experience of refinance our home loan with Circle Finance… This was our second time dealing with them. I would give Circle Finance more than Five Stars.
