Meet
Leanne began lending in 2001 and co-founded Savvy Home Loans in 2007, bringing over 25 years of experience in residential and commercial lending. She's built a successful business that has weathered personal family illness, shifting markets, regulatory reform, royal commissions, pandemics and done so with heart, integrity, and grit.
Her journey into finance started in 2001 when she was inspired by Kerry Packer’s investment in Wizard Home Loans - a lending model that opened the door to more choice for clients. That spark, along with a nudge from a previous business client, led her to open the doors of Wizard Home Loans Wynnum, all while raising six kids under nine and a teenager! It was bold, it was hectic and it was the beginning of something enduring, and she has never looked back!
Today, she still thrives on mapping out strategic paths and connections for her clients with complex needs and she is deeply committed to making sure her clients feel supported and understood and seeing them achieve what’s important to them however, Leanne’s focus is as the Head of Growth at Savvy where her true passion lies in lifting others up - by investing in her team’s growth and ensuring every client feels genuinely cared for when dealing with her Savvy team.
Whether it’s a straightforward home loan or a multilayered commercial solution, she brings warmth, clarity and quiet confidence to the table. As Shakespeare said, “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but often times better than a master of one” and that’s Leanne in a nutshell. Practical, intuitive, and always ready with a Savvy way forward.
Outside of finance she likes to eat (food), pray (for a never-ending week-end), love (babies, mahjong & all things under the Tuscan sun).

From the start Leanne and her team were so warm a welcoming. Leanne had such a large knowledge of her work and explained everything so well, going into buying our first home was daunting having us feel a little like a deer in a headlight, Leanne always made sure we knew what was happening along the process, no question was to silly and every question we had was answered so promptly and in a way we could understand. We highly recommend Leanne and her team. 😊

Couldn’t have done it without team Savvy, their ongoing support has given me the confidence to put my trust in them, knowing that I’m being well looked after. Even tho we got our home over 10years ago, they continue to be there for us. We are blessed and grateful.
