About Us
Back in 1998, Aussiewide opened our doors with a simple idea: Geelong families deserved better than being treated like account numbers by the big banks.
Twenty-five years later, we’re still here, still independent, still family-owned, still helping the same families (and now their kids) navigate one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.
Today, we’re the biggest independent mortgage broker in Geelong, but that happened quietly, organically, one happy client at a time. We never set out to be the biggest, and honestly? That’s exactly why it worked.
Here’s what we’ve learned over the past quarter-century:
- Big usually means impersonal.
- Big usually means policies over people.
- Big usually means call centres and ticket numbers and being passed from department to department.
…and that’s just not us.
What We Are
We’re a tightknit team who genuinely enjoy working together. It might sound corny, but we think when your broker team gets along, it shows in how we work with you.
Some of us come from banking backgrounds. Others fell into finance from completely different careers. What we all share is a belief that the best brokers aren’t just number crunchers… they’re people who genuinely care about getting the right finance strategy in place for your situation, and who’ll move mountains to make it happen.
What We’ve Accomplished
Despite our size, we punch well above our weight. We’ve been named Major Independent Broker of the Year, Best Regional Broker and Best Independent Mortgage Broker. But the recognition we’re most proud of? We’re Geelong’s highest-rated mortgage brokers, with more verified 5-star reviews than any other broker in the region.
That didn’t happen by accident. Our philosophy is simple: if we do right by you, you’ll tell your friends. And so far, that seems to be working. Word of mouth has quietly grown our business year after year, helping over 4,938 families save thousands on their home loans since 1998.
What Drives Us
Beyond the day job, we’re on a mission to give back to the community that’s supported us all these years. Through our award-winning “Keys For A Cause” program, we’re working to raise $100,000 for local grassroots charities and organisations by 2028. Thanks to clients like you, we’re well on our way to hitting this goal!
How We Work
Whether you meet us at one of our offices, over Zoom, or in your living room, you’ll get the same thing: real people who take time to understand your situation, explain everything in plain English, and handle the paperwork so you don’t have to.
Most of our clients tell us that after just one conversation, they immediately feel lighter, more relaxed and more confident about their next steps, knowing we’re here to support them every step of the way.
You’ll never be stuck on hold with an overseas call centre. You’ll never get the runaround. You’ll work directly with the person managing your finance from start to finish.
After 25 years, we’ve learned that’s not just good business – it’s the only way to do business.
