My boyfriend and I have just purchased our first property together. When we first decided to purchase a property we spoke to our friends who described the experience to be very stressful, so we prepared ourselves for the worst.
We met with Liane from Australian First Finance who sat us down and went through our finances. Within days she had a selection of bank loans to choose from. We decided on one and Liane proceeded to get us granted pre-approval. Liane is very knowledgeable and had some great advice, answering any queries or concerns we had throughout the process.
We were lucky enough after a bit of negotiating (much help from Liane) to secure an offer with the sellers for a house in Wynnum West.
Our excitement we thought at the time was short lived due to the banks unforeseen issues with the house. We thought that was the end of it and we had to move onto the next property, all the while feeling disappointed.
However Liane wasn't going down without a fight for us. Liane questioned the banks issues as there was no reason for them to refuse approval and managed to win the argument. Not only that she also managed to secure a $1500 Cashback. In turn allowing us to purchase the property which we now call home.
Buying our first home, a process we anticipated to be a stressful process felt so easy. We were so lucky to have Liane there not just at the beginning but right through to the end, she will really be there through the process when you need her most and she will fight your corner to get you what you want. We can not recommend her enough.

My husband and I recently bought our first home and if it wasn't for Liane Garrick from Australian First Finance it would have been a much more stressful process. We had already been in contact with our bank in regards to our first home loan and were so unhappy with their service. Liane did more work and research for us in 2 days than what our own bank had done in 2 weeks. We could not believe how efficient and helpful Liane was from the beginning till the very last moment. We will definitely be going through Liane for any of our future purchases. She is an absolutely beautiful person who will bend over backwards to do what's best for the client. Thank you so much Liane for your wonderful service.

Liane at Australian First Finance is incredible. I first went to Liane with my very first home loan about 8 years ago, Liane was helpful and informative and I was pleased with all her help.
I recently sold that property as my situation changed, I thought my only option was applying and hitting the dreaded rental lists. I started going to open homes to rent and was mortified at the process of applying for a rental. It was a joke. I rung Liane to talk about options and the possibility of becoming a home owner again. She took a few details from me and said leave it with me. I was over the moon when she said she could help me out. The time frame to get approval through was unbelievable. She found the best deal for me and it was painless. I would highly recommend Liane to anyone. The customer service is exceptional and nothing was never too hard. Thanks again Liane and I look forward to doing business with you again. I will send all my friends and family your way!

I am proud to say I have been a friend of Liane Garrick for almost 20 years, having met in the entertainment industry on the Gold Coast of Queensland. She became a caring mentor within the capacity of our interests at this time.
I was delighted when a few years later she founded Australian First Finance as I had always been impressed with her financial “smarts” and knew that in this capacity she would be a great success and do the absolute best for any clients in her care.
My husband and I first availed ourselves of Liane’s services with AFF when we bought our home in Biggenden. She arranged all the finance required for our mortgage, coupled with logical and sound advice on how to meet the conditions of the finance to our best advantage. Our next help from AFF came a couple of years later when we needed to arrange finance for a new vehicle. Again, Liane offered us the best advice for the required finance, and found us the best deal. Our third business with AFF was when we re- financed our mortgage and consolidated all our finances and here again, Liane found us a great deal that we have been extremely happy with.
In addition I have recommended Liane and AFF to many others including my daughter and son in law and they are also very happy with the mortgage finance that Liane arranged for them for their first home and will be arranging their second home mortgage with AFF in the very near future.
I would recommend Liane and AFF to anybody wanting honest and ethical help to arrange finance. I would trust Liane to give completely honest advice with real care about anybody’s situation and know that she would never just “sell a loan”. Personalised care with real honesty for finances is a must and I would not want to deal with anyone else when it comes to my finances and that of my friends and family.

We were in the process of purchasing home and I was having difficulty with my bank.
As it turned out, my bank was slower than a wet week to get back to me and luckily we met Liane and she was in a position to push through the finance at a very acceptable interest rate.
She arranged everything quickly enough to be ready with the funds, She finalized the deal before the other bidder had a chance to act. Liane knew the market, she knew the fair value, she got the financing and we got our home. I would definitely recommend Liane to anyone who may be needing to arrange finance. She knows her business.

This is a testimonial to let people know that Liane has been my finance rep for at least 15 years, that alone pretty much says it all. Liane goes over and above to make things happen , She is in my book a very special person. I always felt comfortable talking to her and asking. Any questions, she never made me feel silly she just went more out of her way to explain things. All I can say is if Liane can't make it happen then no one else can. A very trustworthy person So much so that I will put my number in this testimonial (0411399322) so call me if u have Any questions.
