Gary
Gary Rowe
Mortgage Broker
0406 969 932 gary.rowe@loanmarket.com.au

I started in Banking with Westpac in 2006 working my way up to Relationship Manager within the Premium section of the bank which focused on building relationships with the bank's high-net-worth clients. I moved into Mortgage Broking in 2015 with Mortgage Choice in Ashgrove before moving across to Loan Market in late 2022. As a Mortgage Broker, I bring my passion and years of industry experience - rather than having one lender's option, I thrive with the huge choice that a broker can access. I love the fact that, in the broker space, I have far more choices and solutions for clients than just one bank's products and policy. I can solve more problems and deliver better outcomes to more people than I ever could at a bank.

Fueled by a genuine passion for connecting with people and a firm commitment to delivering exceptional service, I bring a customer-centric approach to each interaction. My aim is to ensure that every client not only receives attentive support but also feels genuinely heard and valued throughout their journey. I thrive on tackling challenges and am wholeheartedly dedicated to devising personalized solutions that cater to individual needs. As a new member of this vibrant team, I am excited to contribute my skills and passion to craft positive experiences for our clients.
