Bernard Financial Group, touted as Michigan’s largest commercial mortgage banking firm, was founded in 1990 by Dennis Bernard with a borrower-centric ethos. This approach emerged from Bernard's observation that the mortgage banking industry predominantly catered to lenders, often at the expense of borrower interests.
Distinguishing itself in the Financial Services, Real Estate, and Banking industries, Bernard Financial Group has successfully closed over $22 billion in loans. The firm claims a unique market position in Michigan by offering more loan options than its competitors and serves as the only Michigan-based company handling primary cashiering of life company and CMBS loans.
Headquartered in the United States, Bernard Financial Group underlines the value of local, personalized service. Clients have direct access to knowledgeable staff at its Southfield office, foregoing the impersonal nature of automated call systems. With its strong local ties and substantial financial influence, the firm has become a trusted partner for significant real estate investors both in Michigan and nationwide.
