We compare across 37 lenders - major banks, non-banks, specialist, and consumer lenders - to find the product that best fits your situation. Here is who we work with and why it matters.
When you walk into your bank, you see one set of products priced for the general market. When you work with Mont Clair Capital, you access 50+ lenders simultaneously - each with different credit policies, serviceability calculators, and product features. The difference can be tens of thousands of dollars over the life of your loan.
More importantly, different lenders assess different client profiles more favourably. A self-employed applicant who is declined by one major bank may be approved at a better rate by a non-bank specialist. A first home buyer in a regional area may qualify for a scheme only available through certain accredited lenders. Our job is knowing which lender is right for which client - every time.
Rate competition
Lenders compete for our business. That competition benefits you directly in the form of sharper pricing and waived fees that you wouldn't receive walking in alone.
Policy diversity
Every lender has different credit policies - for self-employed income, alt-doc applications, high LVR, and specialist scenarios. We know which policies suit your situation.
Specialist access
Non-bank and specialist lenders aren't on comparison sites. They're only accessible through accredited brokers. Many of our best outcomes come from lenders you've never heard of.
No hidden agenda
We receive similar commission across most lenders. We have no financial incentive to prefer one over another - our only incentive is your outcome and the referral that follows.
These are the lenders we place the most volume with. Each has specific strengths - the right one for you depends entirely on your situation, not our preference.

50+ Lender Panel
We access additional lenders across residential, consumer, and business lending not listed here. Contact us to find the right lender for your specific situation.
We assess your profile first
Before we look at a single lender, we fully understand your income type, credit history, deposit position, and goals. Every lender has different strengths - we need to know yours before we can match you.
We filter by policy fit
We shortlist lenders whose credit policy is most favourable for your specific situation - employment type, loan purpose, LVR, and any specialist requirements like alt-doc, SMSF, or professional waivers.
We compare rate and features
Within the shortlist, we compare interest rate, comparison rate, offset capability, redraw flexibility, and fee structure. Rate is one factor - the total cost of ownership over your loan term is what matters.
We present our recommendation
You receive a written recommendation with our reasoning explained in plain English. We tell you which lender, why, and what alternatives exist. You decide - we never proceed without your approval.
We disclose our commission
Before lodgement, we disclose the commission we receive from the recommended lender. Full transparency on how we are paid is a legal requirement under Best Interest Duty - and something we take seriously.
We review annually
Lender pricing and policy changes constantly. We conduct an annual review of your loan to ensure your lender remains the right choice - and we move you if a materially better option exists.
