David Chamberlain
MD & Mortgage Adviser
David’s passion for finance lies in his desire to help Kiwis make informed and empowering financial decisions. As a Director and Mortgage Adviser at Blueprint Finance, he combines his 8 years of experience in mortgage advice and compliance management to deliver a seamless client experience, always aiming to make complex financial concepts accessible and engaging.
FSP# 1007210
David’s journey into financial services was driven by his fascination with the unique financial situations that touch every household in New Zealand. He loves being invited into those deeply personal conversations, helping clients find strategies that work for them and getting them excited about their financial future. His dual expertise in mortgage advice and compliance management ensures that every client interaction is not only insightful but also smooth and secure.
A notable career highlight for David was being recognized on the Top Mortgage Advisers list for two years, all while managing a team that included four other top advisers. This achievement reflects his dedication and leadership within the industry.
For David, the true reward in his work comes from witnessing those “light bulb moments” when clients grasp a new financial concept or achieve a significant milestone, like buying their first home or securing an investment property. His guiding philosophy is all about taking ownership: whether it’s admitting mistakes, finding solutions, or going the extra mile for his clients, he believes that true responsibility leads to the best client experiences.
Outside of work, David is a big fan of games and competitions, whether it’s a casual round of Cornhole, a strategic game of Risk, or a friendly match of Pictionary. He also enjoys staying active with football and volleyball, and values quality time spent with friends and family.
David fondly recalls one of his first clients who purchased a new build and invited him over for morning tea after they settled. He learned two important lessons from this experience: that new builds don’t come with curtains—leaving the house feeling like a fishbowl—and that building strong, long-term relationships with clients can lead to countless referrals and ongoing partnerships. This client became the benchmark for every relationship David strives to build.
David's competitive nature isn't limited to his professional life. While he once dreamed of being a professional footballer, he channels that same drive into helping his clients achieve their goals. If he weren’t a mortgage adviser, he would have pursued a career in professional sports, but as he jokes, his physique and coordination didn’t quite get him there!
David is eager to explore the rich history of Europe, with Rome and its ancient wonders at the top of his travel list. He’s looking forward to immersing himself in the culture, visiting historic sites, and, of course, exploring a few castles along the way.
David’s dream dinner would include Julius Caesar, Jesus, and a translator. As a lover of history, he imagines an evening filled with fascinating stories and secrets from two of the most influential figures in history—along with someone to help bridge the language gap!

Mortgage & Investment Adviser
Daniel’s journey into financial services began with a degree in Finance, which led him to join his brother's firm right after graduation. Over the past 9 years, Daniel’s passion for personal finance and helping clients achieve their property dreams has grown exponentially. As the Director of Blueprint Finance, he thrives on building strong relationships and guiding clients through life-changing financial decisions.
FSP# 558986
Daniel’s expertise lies in mortgage and investment advice, supported by his empathetic approach and personal experience as an investor. He vividly remembers the challenges of his first home purchase and investment property acquisition, making him especially adept at navigating these processes for his clients. Known for his personable yet firm demeanor, Daniel fights hard for his clients, ensuring they receive the best possible outcomes.
One of Daniel’s proudest achievements was helping a young client purchase his first home. Five years later, that same client returned to buy an investment property, showcasing the value of consistent, sound advice. Additionally, Daniel’s commitment to excellence has earned him a spot on the NZ Top Advisers list for three consecutive years, a testament to his dedication and impact.
Raised in a family of property investors and business owners, Daniel was surrounded by a mindset of planning for the future. This upbringing instilled in him a strong belief in financial preparedness and investment growth. Helping over 1,000 first home buyers realize their property dreams remains one of his most rewarding professional accomplishments.
Beyond work, Daniel is a history enthusiast, often found listening to history podcasts like “The Rest is History” while traveling between appointments. He’s also a passionate member of the Auckland basketball community, both as a player and a coach, and finds joy in the strategy and teamwork the sport requires.
His guiding philosophy, “Listen more than you speak,” influences his approach to client interactions. By asking the right questions and understanding his clients’ unique circumstances, Daniel delivers tailored financial advice that goes beyond the ordinary.
Earlier this year, Daniel helped a family stuck with a lender charging double the standard interest rate. After a difficult year and many failed attempts to refinance, they came to Daniel in desperation. His persistence and expertise led to securing a refinance approval, reducing their repayments by half. The joy and relief they expressed reminded Daniel why he loves what he does—making a real difference in people’s lives.
Daniel is driven by his love for family, always striving to build a legacy for his loved ones. If not in financial services, he would likely be a real estate agent, as property has always been a passion of his. His dream dinner guests include Jesus Christ, Ernest Shackleton, and Patrick Bet-David, each representing wisdom, resilience, and modern business acumen.
If given the chance, Daniel would love to reunite with his extended family in South Africa for a meaningful and memorable family gathering.

Rory’s career in financial services is driven by a passion for helping people navigate the complexities of insurance. As a Director and Insurance Adviser at Blueprint Finance, he is committed to building strong, empathetic relationships with clients, ensuring they have the protection they need during life's most challenging moments.
FSP# 740111
Rory’s journey into financial services was inspired by his love for working with people and the meaningful impact he can have on their financial security. He joined Blueprint Finance because of its client-focused culture and the shared values among the team. Specializing in life, disability, and health insurance, Rory combines his extensive product knowledge with a personal touch, making complicated topics easy to understand for his clients.
A standout moment in Rory’s career was successfully advocating for a client whose insurance claim had been declined. Thanks to his in-depth understanding of the product, he was able to overturn the decision, resulting in a $21,000 payout for his client at a crucial time. This experience reinforced his belief in the importance of client advocacy and the role of an adviser in protecting clients’ financial wellbeing.
Rory’s passion for helping clients is rooted in his own life experience. A Paralympian and bronze medallist from the Rio 2016 Games, Rory has never let his disability define him. After losing his leg at the age of three, he has faced life’s challenges with resilience and determination. This background has uniquely equipped him for a career in insurance, where empathy and understanding are key to supporting clients through difficult times.
In his downtime, Rory enjoys staying active through running, going to the gym, and playing social golf. His positive outlook is summed up in his personal philosophy: “Don’t sweat the small stuff because life is too short. Be kind, be a good person, it’s all good.” This mantra guides his approach to both life and work, helping him stay grounded and focused on what truly matters.
Rory recalls a memorable Saturday morning when he was invited to a client’s home for an Indian breakfast—a cuisine he loves but had never experienced for breakfast. The hospitality and shared experience left a lasting impression, reinforcing the importance of building genuine relationships with clients.
As a coach for aspiring javelin throwers, the sport in which he competed at the Paralympics, Rory finds great satisfaction in passing on his knowledge and watching others improve. His dream dinner guests include Jim Carrey for his humor, Julius Caesar for his insights into history and leadership, and Shane Warne for his legendary cricket stories. A lover of British murder mysteries and true crime documentaries, Rory’s dream job—outside of financial services—would be a homicide detective, though he admits it might be more challenging than it looks on TV.
Rory’s travel bucket list includes exploring the ancient wonders of Machu Picchu in Peru or the pyramids of Egypt. Both destinations fascinate him with their rich history and cultural significance.

A year later, she called him to express her gratitude, a moment that reaffirmed his passion for making a real difference in people’s lives.
In his younger years, Jonathan enjoyed being a card magician and a hip-hop dancer—skills that speak to his creativity and love for connecting with others.

FSP# 1009177
His journey into mortgage advice was no accident. Having set his sights on the role, Jack actively sought connections, discussing his goals openly. Within the space of a week, recommendations from both a respected property investor and a mortgage industry insider pointed him towards Daniel Lipman and the team at Blueprint Finance. A clear sign he was on the right path.
Since joining the industry, Jack has earned his Certificate in Financial Services (Level 5), with a focus on Investments and Residential Lending. He also brings first-hand experience. He bought his own home in Auckland last year and is now on the hunt for his first regional investment property. That lived experience gives him a real understanding of what clients are facing in today’s market.
Now fully accredited with a broad range of lenders – including ASB, ANZ, BNZ, Kiwibank, and Westpac, and specialists such as Resimac, Avanti, Bluestone, Pepper Money, and many others. Jack has the tools and access required to explore and analyse a wide spectrum of mortgage options for you.
Driven and practical, Jack believes in setting clear goals and taking action. It’s how he approaches his own life, and it’s how he helps clients move forward. If you are looking for someone who knows the market and knows how to get things done, Jack’s ready to help.
Jack’s background in sports, including a full-ride scholarship to Illinois State University and selection for the New Zealand U20 cross country team in 2019, has instilled in him a strong work ethic and a competitive spirit. These qualities, combined with his expertise in residential lending, allow him to offer personalised and effective solutions to his clients, ensuring they get the most value from their lending experience.
Growing up in Wellington, Jack never imagined he’d enjoy living in Auckland, but he now embraces the vibrant city and its opportunities. His approach to work and life is shaped by his belief that helping those around him succeed will, in turn, lead to his own success. This philosophy drives his commitment to providing clients with the best possible service, value, and advice.
Outside of work, Jack is passionate about football, golf, and spending quality time with family and friends. He also enjoys hosting game nights and exploring new content on YouTube, always seeking new ways to learn and stay engaged.
One of Jack’s most fulfilling experiences was helping a staff member from the primary school he attended as a child. Referred by his mother, the client was thrilled with the service Jack provided, and the connection to his roots made the experience even more meaningful. Being able to give back to someone from his community was a proud moment that reinforced his commitment to helping others achieve their financial goals.
Jack has a unique mix of interests, from competitive sports to language learning. He’s been practicing Spanish since high school and dreams of putting his skills to use while exploring South America. His personal philosophy centers around making a positive impact on those around him, both personally and professionally. If his clients succeed, he believes his own success will naturally follow.
If he weren’t in financial services, Jack would have pursued a career as a professional athlete, having always dreamed of representing New Zealand at the Olympics or playing football at the highest level. His competitive nature and dedication to excellence continue to influence his approach to work, where he strives to be the best in his field.
Jack’s dream dinner would be an intimate family affair, including his grandfathers and grandmother. His paternal grandfather served in World War II, and Jack would love to learn more about his experiences. His maternal grandfather, who passed away when Jack was two, is remembered through family stories, and Jack would cherish the opportunity to get to know him better. His grandmother, still thriving at 95, is a constant source of inspiration, and Jack treasures the time he spends with her.
Jack’s passion for language and culture draws him to South America. He’s eager to immerse himself in the region’s vibrant communities and practice his Spanish in real-world settings, making it the perfect destination for his next adventure.

Business Insurance
Key Person, Shareholder Buyout...
Every business has its own rhythm and risks, so we begin by understanding your operations, financial health, and future plans. We’ll recommend the coverage that keeps things running smoothly—like Key Person Insurance to protect revenue if a vital team member is sidelined, or Shareholder Buyout solutions to ensure fair transitions if an owner can’t continue. We can even help set up group insurance to show your employees you value their well-being.
From there, we compare top providers to design a plan that fits your structure and budget. We keep the process straightforward, explaining coverage options clearly so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why. Our goal is to protect your team and bottom line without drowning you in red tape.
Once everything’s in place, we stay on your side for the long haul. If you need to make a claim, we’ll handle the paperwork and keep things moving, so you can focus on running your business. With us, you get coverage that safeguards your people and your profits, plus an advocate who’s ready to step in if the unexpected happens.
