Steve brings over 15 years of experience across retail, recruitment and mortgage broking to every client relationship. He is known for his thoroughness, his patience with first home buyers, and his ability to make a complex process feel manageable.
Steve Chin is a mortgage broker at Lendology, the Adelaide-based brokerage he co-founded with Jason Given in 2024. He brings over 15 years of professional experience spanning retail management, recruitment and mortgage finance — a background that shaped his ability to listen carefully, understand what people actually need, and deliver outcomes that work in practice.
Steve is an MFAA member and operates under Australian Credit Licence 517192 through LMG Broker Services. He works out of Lendology's Daw Park office and handles clients across metropolitan Adelaide.
Tens of five-star Google reviews speak to what clients consistently experience when they work with Steve — a broker who responds quickly, explains clearly, and genuinely cares whether the outcome is right for them, not just whether the application gets lodged.
Steve handles the full range of residential lending at Lendology, but has particular strength with first home buyers, upsizers, and clients who are refinancing for the first time.
First home buyers often come to Steve feeling overwhelmed by the process. His approach cuts through that — he explains each step clearly, sets realistic expectations, and makes sure clients understand exactly what they are signing and why.
For upgrading clients, Steve manages the timing and bridging requirements that make these transactions more complex. And for refinancers, he brings the analytical rigour to make sure the numbers actually stack up before recommending a switch.
What clients say about Steve most consistently is that he makes them feel looked after. Not in a performative way — in the practical sense that their calls are returned, their questions are answered thoroughly, and they are never left wondering where things stand.
Steve's 15 years of experience across industries where client relationships are everything shaped a professional style that is genuinely service-oriented. He does not treat lending as a transaction. He treats it as an ongoing relationship, and the repeat clients and referrals he generates reflect that.
