Top Female Mortgage Broker Agent in Australia
Sep 13, 2023
Mortgage brokers are like free personal shoppers. They know the shops (loan providers and banks) well and who's going to fit your shape (circumstances). They go out and find you some really good options (loans). And you don't have to pay them - the loan provider does that!
Mortgage brokers are generally the first people you would reach out to as you need to know how much you can actually borrow - or, if we're getting all formal, 'what your lending capability is'. A broker will look at you as a whole picture - your deposit, your spending behaviours, employment situation - and find a loan provider who will be best for you.
Leading Sydney mortgage broker Kathy Euers from INK Wealth, says, 'If you walk into a bank, you're limited. You could be a square peg trying to fit into a round hole with that particular bank's policy. If you use a broker they will have about 30 different lenders and hundreds of different loan options that they can source for you.'
We get asked all the time who we recommend so we have created an ambassadors network of women who we love to work with, you can check them all out on our website https://directory.ladiesfinanceclub.com

Emma Stephens
📍Location: Australia wide | Sunshine Coast
I help women to change the financial conversations, translate complex mortgage language and transform the experience of buying a home for all women across Australia.
Emma Stephens is one of Australia’s most prominent Financial Thought Leaders, specialising in financial strategy, product specialisation, and Mortgage Advisory for women. With over 20 years of experience in banking and investment, she has transformed the financial experience of tens of thousands of customers, families, businesses, and communities across the country.
As she rose through the ranks in executive management roles, Emma was struck by how many women felt intimidated by finance, lacked confidence to borrow and invest, and struggled to make their money work. That personal insight sparked her mission: to change financial conversations and challenge the status quo.
Beyond her clients, Emma is deeply involved in community initiatives. She designs and delivers local events, supports women’s business networking, and contributes to organisations like the Cancer Council and Rotary to drive awareness, fundraising, and support.
“Even though finance is often seen as transactional, it’s the relationships that are the heart of my life’s work. I love that clients treat me like a close friend or family member—with mutual respect, warmth, and trust.”
Inspired by her own journey as a newly single mum working full-time and trying to buy a home, Emma is on a mission to transform the experience of homeownership for 10,000 women in Australia by 2025.
Today, she joins us to help change the financial conversation, for good.
