Find a Mortgage Broker
A licensed broker compares dozens of lenders and handles the loan paperwork. The lender pays the broker, so there is no fee to you.
Check a licensed broker
Brokers we have a link with
A short list of national broker networks. Every licensed broker in the country is in the register below. Lenders pay all broker fees, so both options are free for you.
How this list works: it is not a ranking and we do not score brokers. They are listed alphabetically. “Lenders compared” is approximate: ask the broker for its current panel. For service, read each broker's Google reviews. A link that earns us a referral fee is labelled Paid link, and one that earns us nothing says so. Neither changes who we list or the order. Logos belong to their owners.
The credit licence register
The register, not a ranking. Every company ASIC records as currently licensed to arrange credit for consumers: about one in five Australian Credit Licence holders. Each entry shows whether a business is licensed, what the licence allows, and which scheme hears complaints.
Licences ASIC has suspended or cancelled are excluded: neither is a current one. The list updates weekly from ASIC's register.
Not all licence holders. The other four in five are lenders, loan servicers and consumer-lease providers without a credit-assistance authorisation. They cannot lawfully arrange a loan for you, so they are not listed.
Not only mortgage brokers. “Credit assistance” also covers buy-now-pay-later providers, car finance, payday lenders and debt collectors. ASIC publishes no field that separates them from home loan brokers, so Klarna appears alongside local brokers. Check what each business does.
Checking one business or person? Check a credit licence searches this register and all 47,000 authorised representatives by name or licence number.

Why use a mortgage broker?
A panel of lenders
A broker compares loans across its lender panel, which for the large networks runs to dozens of lenders, and deals with the lender for you.
Licensed and checkable
Every business listed holds a current Australian Credit Licence with a credit-assistance authorisation, taken from the ASIC register. Each licence number is shown so you can check it.
Comparison done for you
Comparing forty loan products yourself takes days. A broker compares them and returns a short list.
