Mortgage Broker Shane Martin is the founder of Zeally Finance, a locally owned boutique mortgage brokerage based on the Surf Coast and servicing Torquay, Geelong and the surrounding regions. With more than a decade of experience in the finance industry, Shane is committed to making home loans simple and guiding clients through every stage of their financial journey.
Having purchased his first property at 24, Shane knows firsthand the challenges and rewards of entering the housing market. He has since helped more than 100 first home buyers into their own homes, and works just as closely with upgraders, investors and homeowners looking to refinance. Whether clients are mapping out their first purchase, leveraging equity for their next move, or checking whether their current loan still stacks up, Shane takes the time to understand their situation and find a loan that genuinely fits their life, not just the numbers.
Shane is proud to support the essential and frontline workers who keep the community running. Nurses, police, paramedics, firefighters and teachers benefit from his knowledge of low-deposit schemes, government support, and lenders who recognise shift and overtime income, along with appointments outside standard business hours to suit busy rosters.
With access to more than 35 lenders across Australia, Shane offers the personalised service and choice that the big banks simply cannot match. Every client relationship starts with a free 30-minute strategy session, where Shane assesses where you're at, explains which grants and schemes you may be eligible for, and provides a clear 90-day action plan, with no pressure and no obligation.
Shane is MFAA accredited and stays across industry changes so his clients can make informed decisions with confidence. Outside of work, he is actively involved in the Surf Coast community and enjoys supporting local initiatives wherever he can.

Shane has just helped us buy our first house and we can’t speak highly enough of him. Always quick to respond, friendly and talked us through the process patiently and clearly. One of the genuinely most decent, helpful, friendly people we’ve come across and made the whole process a breeze.

We worked with Shane as first home buyers building a home and have now worked with Shane to refinance our loan. Both processes have been super easy with Shane by our side, making it stress free and easy to understand!
