Justin Leaney is the Principal and mortgage broker at Lend Local Co, based in Glenbrook and serving clients across the Blue Mountains, Penrith, and Western Sydney. With more than 15 years in finance and a lender panel of 70-plus, Justin has helped hundreds of borrowers find the right loan for their situation, from first home buyers taking their first steps to investors, self-employed clients, and those with complex lending structures the major banks struggle to accommodate.
Justin compares your options across 70-plus lenders, explains the numbers in plain English, and stays across your file from the first conversation through to settlement. Where needed, he works directly with your accountant and solicitor to keep everything coordinated and moving. You deal with Justin from start to finish. No handoffs, no dropped balls.
He also handles the more complex stuff that many brokers send elsewhere. SMSF loans, trust structures, commercial finance, guarantor arrangements, construction loans, and lending for self-employed borrowers are all areas Justin deals with directly. Clients regularly mention that he found a way forward on applications that other brokers could not progress.
Lend Local Co is a locally owned brokerage with real ties to the Blue Mountains and Western Sydney community. When you work with Justin, you are not dealing with a franchise or a call centre. You get a local broker who knows the area, understands the lenders most active in this market, and is personally invested in getting your loan across the line.
As an MFAA member and holder of a Diploma of Financial Mortgage Brokering and Finance, mortgage broker Justin Leaney has built a strong reputation across Glenbrook, Blaxland, Springwood, Penrith, Emu Plains, Katoomba, and the broader Western Sydney region that his 28 five-star reviews reflect well.

As a first home buyer, I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Justin and Lianna at LendLocal. Justin was amazing from start to finish, always available to answer questions, explain the process clearly, and make everything feel simple and stress-free. Buying your first home can be overwhelming, but Justin made me feel supported and confident every step of the way. His knowledge, communication, and genuine care really stood out. I highly recommend Justin and the team at LendLocal to anyone looking for a mortgage broker, especially first home buyers!

Justin and the team were amazing. They were so helpful throughout the whole process. Justin worked through many options to suit me best that other brokers hadn’t considered. I had a few last minute changes that they were quick to organise and still made the process easy. The whole team was friendly and professional and always ready to help, I definitely recommend them!

After speaking with a few brokers about purchasing through my SMSF and trust structure, it became clear pretty quickly that Justin at LendLocal really knew their stuff. The process was far more complex than a standard investment loan, but Justin handled everything professionally and kept things moving without stress. He communicated clearly, worked well with my accountant and solicitor, and always made time to answer questions along the way. It’s hard to find brokers who genuinely understand SMSF lending, so I’m very grateful for the support and guidance throughout the process. Highly recommend Justin and the LendLocal team for anyone looking at SMSF or structured investment lending.

I recently worked with Justin and Lianna at LendLocal for an investment property purchase and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Justin was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain all my options, helped structure the loan to suit my investment goals, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. The communication and support from both Justin and the team were outstanding from start to finish. I highly recommend LendLocal to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy mortgage broker, especially for investment lending.
