Bertrand Buffet

Director - Mortgage & Finance Adviser

Since entering the broking industry in 2013, Bertrand has been a dedicated advocate for families looking to secure their futures, helping hundreds of clients build substantial wealth through strategic property ownership. As the founder and director of WeNeedFinance, he brings a deep reservoir of experience and a "big picture" perspective to his role as a Mortgage and Finance Adviser. For Bertrand, the true reward lies in the human element—getting to the heart of a client’s needs, providing seamless service, and cultivating relationships that last long after the final documents are signed.

Bertrand’s professional foundation is built on a Bachelor of Business from Swinburne University and a Diploma of Finance and Mortgage Broking Management. As an ASIC-licensed credit representative and a full member of the MFAA, he maintains the highest standards of industry excellence. However, his eye for detail doesn't stop at finance; Bertrand is a self-confessed foodie and an avid wine enthusiast. Whether he is hunting for a rare vintage or discovering a hidden gem in the local restaurant scene, he understands that the best results—much like a fine wine or a perfectly cooked meal—come from patience, the right ingredients, and a touch of expert craft.

Rebecca Cassar-Buffet

Personal & Asset Finance Broker

For Rebecca, finance broking is about more than just numbers—it’s about people. Starting her career as a Conveyancing Clerk, she gained a deep, "ground-up" understanding of the property process, allowing her to simplify the complex for her clients.

A self-confessed car enthusiast and F1 aficionado, Rebecca brings that same high-performance energy to her role as a personal and asset finance broker. She is a qualified ASIC licensed credit representative and MFAA member with a Diploma of Finance and Mortgage Broking Management. Whether you are looking for business lending, a personal loan or a new car, she provides the expert oversight needed to get you behind the wheel.

Rebecca’s approach is established in her 6+ years as a business owner in Camberwell, where her commitment to her clients led her to become a two-time Service Excellence Award finalist. When she isn’t fine-tuning a loan application with the precision of an F1 pit crew, she is a busy mother of two who values community and the long-term success of the families she serves.

Richard Krenn

Client Manager

Richard serves as a dedicated Client Manager at WeNeedFinance, bringing with him a formidable background as a business services accountant. This foundation in accounting allows him to look beyond the surface of a loan application, utilising a deep-seated passion for numbers and complex financial management to structure outcomes that truly serve his clients' long-term goals.

Beyond the world of balance sheets and interest rates, Richard is a genuine property enthusiast who keeps a constant pulse on market trends and investment opportunities. This personal interest in real estate gives him a unique perspective, allowing him to empathise with the excitement and challenges his clients face. When he isn’t analyzing data, he is an avid basketball aficionado, drawing on the sport’s fast-paced nature to fuel his own competitive spirit. Richard brings this "on-court" drive to his professional life, maintaining a keen eye for detail and a relentless commitment to delivering exceptional results in every aspect of his work.
