5 star experience

There’s no better mortgage broker than Darren & the Ambition team! I’ve had the pleasure of working with Darren for the past 7 years and he is truly phenomenal, I can’t recommend them enough. He patiently guided me through the mortgage process and my many pre-approvals, talking through all available options so I could determine which lender would be the best fit for me. He is always on hand to answer any question or provide additional information about home loan options or properties of interest, and regularly check ins, particularly at the key points of the mortgage process. If you are looking for a trusted mortgage broker who provides quality, tailored advice and genuinely cares about getting the best result for you, go with Ambition Financial, you won’t regret it!

Best experience!

Darren has helped us with a few mortgages and refinances and he has just been excellent. Communication is prompt and comprehensive and he is always happy to answer my million questions! He has come through for us on many occasions and even when the turnaround time was super tight. He has made the process of mortgages so easy and seamless. I would 1000000% seek Darren’s help next time we need it again and would recommend (and have already to many friends) him to anyone hands down. No hesitation - Darren is fantastic and makes the whole process of obtaining finance so easy. Thanks Darren - to you and your whole team.

Great service

Darren and the team always provide great service. They sorted out a reasonably complicated refinance over a couple of properties for us with no hassle and double quick. Highly recommended

Applying for a loan can often feel overwhelming, but Darren and Deb from Ambition Financial made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. They provided clear, step-by-step guidance and took the time to walk us through every stage, right up until the first payment was drawn. Their service was exceptional, highly professional, genuinely personal, and tailored to suit our individual needs. We felt supported every step of the way. I would highly recommend Ambition Financial to anyone looking to secure a loan, you’ll be in excellent hands.

Outstanding Mortgage Broker – Highly Recommended!

I recently refinanced my home loan with the help of Darren Riekie and the team at Ambition Financial, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the experience. From our first conversation, Darren was professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to understand my needs, explained all my options clearly, and made what can often be a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable. Darren was always responsive and proactive, keeping me informed every step of the way and ensuring everything moved along smoothly and efficiently. His attention to detail and genuine commitment to getting the best outcome for me really stood out. Thanks to Darren’s expertise, I was able to secure a much better rate and terms that suited my financial needs. I highly recommend Darren Riekie and the team at Ambition Financial to anyone considering refinancing or needing expert mortgage advice!

A Truly Exceptional Broker Who Made Our Homeownership Dream a Reality

A Truly Exceptional Broker Who Made Our Homeownership Dream a Reality

We genuinely would not have been able to buy our home without Darren. He made our dream a reality and went above and beyond at every step. He’s the kind of broker who asks “how can I help?” rather than telling you what you need to do — and that mindset made all the difference. No job was too small, and no question went unanswered. He checked in regularly, explained every step with patience and clarity, and always had our best interests at heart. He’s incredibly personable, supportive, and driven. I couldn’t recommend him more highly to anyone looking for a mortgage broker.

We had the privilege of working with Darren Riekie as our mortgage broker for the purchase of our new home, and we can’t recommend him highly enough. From our very first meeting, Darren’s professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for his clients were evident. He took the time to understand our unique financial situation and provided clear, tailored advice that made navigating the mortgage process so much easier. Throughout the entire journey, Darren was a fantastic communicator, keeping us informed every step of the way. He patiently answered all of our questions (and there were many!) and made sure we fully understood our options. His transparency was a huge relief—there were no surprises, and we always felt confident in the decisions we were making. Darren’s deep knowledge of the mortgage industry really stood out. He worked tirelessly to secure the best possible deal for us, even negotiating with lenders to find the most favorable terms. He explained the long-term implications of our choices, which gave us the confidence to make informed decisions that aligned with our financial goals. What we truly appreciated was Darren’s personal approach. He didn’t treat us like just another set of clients; he genuinely cared about our needs and worked diligently to ensure we were happy with the outcome. His dedication to making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible made the entire home-buying experience far easier than we had imagined. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dedicated mortgage broker, we wholeheartedly recommend Darren. Thanks to him, we can now enjoy our new home without the stress we thought would come with it.
