Cristian was amazing to deal with from start to finish. Very approachable and made my first home buyer experience seamless.
He goes above and beyond for his clients. I have recommended him to many and will continue to do so.

The best experience dealing with Cristian, took us through the entire journey from the beginning to the end.
Would highly recommend dealing with Cristian he helped us get the best interest rate and the extra funds that we needed to do our renovations and organise our wedding.
Couldn’t thank Cristian enough for all his hard work. 😊

I had the pleasure to have Cristian as my broker and assist me with finance for purchasing my first home! He is extremely knowledgeable and very responsive especially being my first time buying was very nerve racking. His communication is excellent and he guided me throughout the entire process..

A Partner, Not Just a Broker: Our Experience with Cristian at Finance Lane.
We discovered Cristian through a trusted referral, and from the very first meeting, his approach was deeply personal and immediately set him apart. He took extraordinary initiative to genuinely understand not just our immediate lending needs, but our long-term financial goals and future aspirations. This dedication formed the foundation of the tailored lending strategy he developed for us.
Cristian ensured we were aware of every opportunity, clearly outlining available schemes, benefits, and alternative options that maximized our position. His commitment was evident when he took the time to visit us in person, patiently walking us through every complex detail until we felt confident and informed.
What truly elevated our experience was his willingness to go above and beyond the expected scope of a broker. He offered invaluable advice on key decisions and introduced us to trusted connections who became our "dream team" throughout the process. This level of comprehensive support—which still continues today—is what separates him. After meeting with three other brokers, the moment we met Cristian, we knew he was the partner we needed.
Thanks to his exceptional guidance and unparalleled work ethic, we were able to successfully secure a very good property as our first home. We wholeheartedly recommend Cristian's services, but most importantly, his incredible dedication and commitment to his clients' success.
Keep up the good work!

We can’t thank Cristian enough for all his help in purchasing our first home. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand our situation and carefully collated all our finances, making what felt like an overwhelming process so much clearer and more achievable.
His guidance, patience and genuine support made a huge difference - we always felt like we were in safe hands. Cristian went above and beyond to answer every question (big or small) and kept us confident and informed every step of the way.
We couldn’t have done it without him, he’s truly epic! Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a broker who genuinely cares and delivers exceptional results.

Cristian is one those rare people in this industry who genuinely cares about his clients. He is efficient, communicative but also supportive. His clients are not just clients once, but long term raving fans! His knowledge and experience are also excellent! Thank you, Cristian!

Got Questions? We’ve Got You.
Finance can feel like a maze - we’re here to make it make sense. Whether you’re buying your first home or scaling your business, these answers will help clear the fog. Still unsure? Let’s chat it through.
Do I need to have a 20% deposit to get a home loan?
Not necessarily. While a 20% deposit avoids Lender’s Mortgage Insurance (LMI), there are options with as little as 5% down. We’ll help you navigate what’s best based on your situation.
What is Lender’s Mortgage Insurance (LMI)?
LMI is a fee charged when your deposit is under 20%. It protects the lender, not you, but we can often help you avoid it or reduce the impact through specific loan structures or profession-based waivers.
How much can I borrow?
It depends on your income, expenses, credit history, and current financial commitments. We use detailed tools and lender calculators to give you a realistic, tailored figure.
How long does it take to get approved?
If your documentation is ready, pre-approval can happen within 1–3 business days. Full approval after a purchase usually takes 5–7 business days, depending on the lender.
