Leanne is nothing short of amazing which is evident by her professionalism, in-depth knowledge of the market and efficiency. She is very personable, has excellent communication skills and took the time to educate us about each step which we greatly appreciated. What was initially thought by us to be a daunting prospect turned into a stress free and seamless process thanks to Leanne. We highly recommend Leanne and her team and are so happy we found her.

I worked with Leanne when buying my property in Sydney. Her support was amazing during at least a couple of years since I first started planning the purchase. I highly recommend her as a Mortgage Broker as she will think on everything that's involved and will help you find the best options. Thank you
Leanne is very knowledgeable, commercial and efficient. Highly recommend Leanne for all your mortgage related needs.
Leanne was absolutely amazing. She took care of everything and made the entire process so easy. Leanne is also still available to us for advice which is so important. I can't recommend her more highly.

Leanne was great. We were purchasing our first home, and she walked us through the process, answered our many questions, and was always available to help even at short notice. Highly recommend.
Very friendly and helpful. Made the process of buying first home very easy
Very market knowledgeable - really knows the providers and products that are available. Makes the process simple and painless.
Leanne recently helped up with a sell and buy transaction, she also helped us in the past with a refinance. The recent buysell was all a little rushed at first but Leanne was so efficient in sourcing mortgages for us quickly and giving valuable advise. We ended up changing our minds and ended up not buying the first house but nothing was a problem for Leanne and she kept investigating until she found us a the right loan for the place we did end up buying. We originally thought with being self employed the big banks wouldn't touch us and Leanne made it happen, we are very grateful to Leanne for making a very big change in our lives stress free, would highly recommend her.
Leanne assisted us with refinancing our mortgage with a new lender. You feel very assured after your first meeting with her, she clearly has an extensive knowledge of the industry and she wants the best outcome for you. My husband and I were extremely happy with her service and wont look anywhere other than to Leanne when we need assistance in the future. Thanks very much Leanne

Thankyou Leanne for your service and open communication with us always.

Leanne is amazing - she helped us with our original mortgage 7 years ago and has been on the ball ever since keeping an eye out for us and letting us know when we should review our rates. She's championed rate reductions for us and locked us in at 1.9 at the perfect time, saving us heaps as rate rises started to hit. Leanne recently negotiated a refinance of our mortgage with a great attention to detail, looking at our whole financial situation and recommending strategies to take pressure off with the rate rises. She's all over it and I highly recommend having her on your team
Leanne is friendly, professional and knowledgeable, and was able to provide me with clear information and great options in a short time-frame. As a first home buyer I felt at ease and well looked after.
Leanne is the best in the business.
Couldnt recommend her more highly

Leanne did a great job for us last year with our new mortgage. Her industry knowledge and professionalism are outstanding. She was a pleasure to deal with, and always available when we needed something. We would definitely use Leanne's services again, and highly recommend her. Five stars aren't enough
Leanne and her team have done an amazing job for us in the last few months. They made our first home loan application process as smooth as possible. We were first in contact with Leanne a year ago when she gave us lots of tips on how to prepare ourselves for buying. Since then, every time we called or emailed she was happy to chat and answer all our questions. Leanne is very knowledgeable, professional, experienced, approachable and has a great team working with her. She found us a good deal and helped to sort out the mess our bank caused which almost delayed building process. Luckily, Leanne and Belinda were on top of everything and sorted it all quickly without any delays. The whole process was smooth and easy thanks to them. We loved the convenience of having online meetings and sorting everything out via calls and emails instead of wasting time driving to the office. We are recommending Leanne to our friends and we'll be definitely coming back to her in future if we need a broker
Leanne was a pleasure to deal with throughout our home loan process - always available and remained a calm, knowledgeable and reassuring presence throughout what can often be a stressful experience. We would highly recommend you consider Mortgage Choice Lane Cove when buying your next home - we'll certainly be going back - though hopefully not for a few years
Excellent service you can trust
Leanne and the team at Mortgage Choice helped my partner and I buy our first home They were exceptionally helpful in guiding us through every choice for buying our first home Leanne always responded to emails promptly and would pick up every call. She would answer all our questions no matter how small and she made us feel secure in our decisions. I highly recommend using Mortgage Choice.
Leanne and the Team were amazing in assisting us through the purchase of our first home. She took the time to explain everything and was always readily available to answer any questions. It took us over a year to find a property that suited our needs and she was there every step along the way. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to purchase, especially first home buyers.
As a FHB, banks and brokers had patronised and wasted my time for months. I was close to giving up when Leanne returned my call and got to work. Service was up front, and very responsive. I have no doubt I still would not yet be in the market if it was not for MCLC. Absolutely recommend.
Leanne made arranging a home loan seem effortless. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
We worked with Leanne 15 years ago for our first home loan, and received fantastic service again earlier this year for our renovation refinance.
We could not have secured the rate and managed the process ourselves and were very happy with the level of support we received from Leanne, Belinda and team.
Leanne is very professional and knowledgeable and she and her team went above and beyond to get me a great deal.
Leanne is so knowledgeable and was so helpful throughout the process for buying my first home. Great communication and gives unbiased financial advice. I would recommend her services to anyone.

Leanne and the team have done a great job for us for over a decade now new loans for owning and investing, including our first home, and refinancing too.

She is a pleasure to work with and extremely knowledgeable. Can absolutely recommend Leanne and her team.
Leanne is the best We've used her as our mortgage broker for many years, for multiple investment purchases and refinances for our property portfolio. She's highly competent and professional and has been able to negotiate better rates and loan packages than we've been able to find anywhere else. Furthermore, Leanne and her team don't drop the ball once they get you a loan approval, they liaise with with your new lender, old lender for mortgage discharge and conveyancers, going above and beyond to ensure settlement deadlines are met. I wouldn't go anywhere else for property finance

Leanne helped us secure the loan to buy our first home. From start to finish she was fantastic super helpful and responsive, and highly invested in getting the right outcome for us. Highly recommended
I cant recommend Leanne highly enough. While being tenacious in pursuing the best mortgage deal for you, she is also extremely professional, very pleasant, patient and utterly trustworthy. Thanks to her persistence with the pre-approval process were able to make a competitive offer to the vendor in a tight timeframe, and it was accepted. She then went on to source two great deals for finance so we could choose our final lender. I was really delighted with the outcome. If I ever decide to go through the gruelling house-buying process again, the first call I make will be to Leanne.
Leanne is a competent professional who works hard to save you money on your loan by always securing the best deals. We have used her services for over 17 years to assist us with our investment and home loans and have recommended her often to friends and family. All have used her services and have been very grateful for the recommendation.
As a first home buyer I didn't really know what to expect throughout the whole process of getting a mortgage and buying my home. Leanne was so helpful throughout the process, explained everything clearly, and put my mind at ease at each step as I got closer to settlement date. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Leanne.
After struggling to get the ball rolling with our loan, my partner and I were very pleased with the service we received from Leanne Johnstone.
Leanne was incredibly knowledgable and worked with us in a timely matter to get our loan application underway. She answered all of our questions and went out of her way to explain the different options available to us, and what she believed would be best for our situation.
We would absolutely recommend Leanne to anyone looking for a mortgage broker.
Leanne is a pleasure to deal with and have worked with her on a number of home loan requirements. Look forward to continuing this business relationship.
First impression was very good, you can feel that person who gives you advice is smart and knowledgeable.
Loved working with Leanne and the team at Mortgage Choice Lane Cove. This is the second time I have used Leanne, first time was for a new mortgage and the second time around several years later to do a refinance. Both times were incredibly easy. Leanne is friendly and knowledgeable, I often felt I was dealing with a friend. Would highly recommend Leanne and the team
I have been a client of Leanne's for over 14 years. Over that time she has assisted with my initial mortgage and subsequent refinancing. Leanne and her team are wonderful to deal with, their customer service is exemplary. No one else sends me a Christmas card and a birthday card including a Freddo Frog every single year for 14 years Thoroughly recommend Leanne and her team for anyone seeking a mortgage broker.
Leanne's assistance was invaluable in helping me with buying my first home. She is always available, extremely knowledgeable, and she gives you the confidence that you're getting the best deal. Any paper work is dealt with very quickly and with minimal hassle, and I couldn't have been able to get the home I'm currently living in without her help. Could not recommend more highly

We received regular communication about our loan status - we were always kept in the loop. Thank you for you ongoing support.
As a first time buyer of property in this country, we knew nothing about how to go about it. We were very well guided by Leanne, who was so thorough in her explanations and was so approachable at any time of day, including weekends. She made it possible for us to fulfill our dream of building our own house, without going through any hassles.
I've always found you guys to be extremely professional and excellent communicators. Thank you!

The team at Lane Cove are amazing. Nothing is too much trouble, great knowledge and advice. The service is first-rate, before, during and even after the loan settles. We have used them multiple times and can definitely recommend.
Stephanie was referred to me by a friend who has used her twice. She gave me excellent guidance and advice about the market and financial institutions. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again.
Smoother experience as they have all your information.
Better understanding of your financials to provide tailored advice. 
Faster response compared to being matched with a new broker.
