Your finance doesn’t need to be complicated.

We make securing your first home loan easy by going above and beyond to turn one of the most pivotal moments of your life, into a success.

I cannot praise Alex enough for the exceptional service we received throughout our home loan journey. Alex and team were attentive, understanding, and always available to address our concerns. Before I approached Alex, I had consulted two other mortgage brokers, they straight away rejected saying I am not eligible for the loan amount i was looking for. Alex not only got pre-approval of a higher amount, that too in a matter of days at a very competitive rate. I would highly recommend Alex for home loan brokering!

Alex helped us secure properties and loans twice. We're so happy with his support we are going back a third time. He's knowledgeable, professional and able to breakdown our options in an easy and achievable way. Highly recommend Alex and The Finance Project.

Alex was absolutely awesome throughout the process of securing the best loan for our first home and in a very tight timeline after I could’t secure one on my own with a very slow lender. He was always reachable and following up with us regularly to explain the process, update on loan progress, offer a helping hand and suggest solutions when we faced difficulties. He continued to follow up with us even after the final completion of the purchase to make sure we are happy with everything. Would definitely recommend him to all my family and friends.

I had the pleasure of working with Alex as my mortgage broker, and I'm thrilled with the experience. From our initial consultation to securing a loan, Alex demonstrated unmatched professionalism and expertise. He went above and beyond to find the best rates and terms, ensuring I got the perfect mortgage for my needs. Throughout the process, Alex remained accessible, proactive, and transparent, making the journey smooth and stress-free. If you're in need of a top-notch mortgage broker, I highly recommend Alex.

Can't give Alex enough praise for helping me refinance my home loans. He has a great way of explaining confusing bank terms - so everything was easy to understand & compare. I was guided through the best options so I could pick the best fit for my needs, and team was responsive when I had questions. Extremely impressed with Alex's service and knowledge and will continue to engage him in the future - wish I went to him sooner!

My partner and I would like to thank Alex from the bottom of our hearts for helping us reach a huge milestone. We would not have been able to purchase our first home without him. We commend and admire how Alex goes above and beyond in his support and guidance through the process, as my partner and I didn’t always understand everything at hand. Alex’s great patience and dedication to his clients shows through his high level of professionalism, breaking down information, and even sparing some time after hours to suit our working hours.

Alex and his team at The Finance Project recently assisted my fiancé and I with getting approval for our loan for purchasing our first home. Alex was extremely professional, patient, and informative. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he would always go the extra mile. We would highly recommend Alex to anyone seeking a broker! Thank you Alex and team!!

First Home Buyer Mortgage Experts who fight for you, not our lenders.

Our small team of expert brokers work with you on a one to one basis to give you the personalised service First Home Buyers deserve. We pride ourselves on being good, genuine people, having real conversations and always keeping your best interests at heart.

Chat With Our First Home Buyer Team

We ensure your Loan Product & Customer Experience is exceptional at every stage.

Our first home buyers mortgages are rated ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐️ and well awarded for a reason.

The Right Scheme or Grant For You

Navigating the many options and changing legislation can be confusing. We simplify it and find the best choice for you. With recent changes in SA, you could save up to $38,000 on stamp duty for homes $800,000 and above, plus a $15,000 First Home Buyers Grant!

Exceptional Rates & Terms

Our access to over 35 different lenders and mortgage expertise means we not only find the best loan rates for you, but also the best terms. Sometimes a higher interest rate can be a better fit for your situation!

You don’t Actually Pay Us

We get paid a commission by the bank you take your loan from. That money does not come out of your own pocket, nor is it included in your repayments.

We Earn Nothing If You’re Not Happy

We lose all of our commission if you leave us within the first 12 months of your loan. That means it’s always in both of our best interests to get you the best loan product and customer experience possible.

The Finance Project.
Not your average broker.

At TFP, we understand that no person or situation is the same. This is why our team of industry experts are dedicated to finding a tailored solution that best fits your needs and goals.


Our clients’ goals and aspirations for their property portfolios and journeys are our project - we go above and beyond to work closely with them and ensure their goals are achieved. 


The main reason to our name is that a percentage of all commission earned by the company will be donated to my Mum’s village in the Philippines where we can help put kids through school and support local orphanages. This has been a long standing value and passion of mine and something I hold very close to my heart. So giving back to my roots and helping the next generation is our ongoing project.

What is a mortgage broker?

A mortgage broker acts as a middleman between you and potential lenders, helping you find the best mortgage deals suited to your financial situation and home-buying needs.

How do I know when I’m ready to see a mortgage broker?

You're ready to see a mortgage broker when you're serious about buying a home, have a clear picture of your financial situation, and are seeking expert advice to navigate the mortgage options available to you.

What are the benefits of using a mortgage broker?

Using a mortgage broker can save you time and money by accessing a wide range of lenders and mortgage products, offering expert advice tailored to your circumstances, and guiding you through the application process. In addition to this, you don’t actually pay a cent for your mortgage broker’s services, the bank you choose for your loan does.

How much of a deposit do I need for my first home?

Typically, you need at least a 5-10% deposit of the property's purchase price. However, having a larger deposit can offer more mortgage options and better rates.

What is Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI)?

LMI is insurance that protects the lender if you default on your loan. It's usually required if your deposit is less than 20% of the property's value. Alex will explain this and what it means for you in more detail over your first call.

Can I get a home loan with a low credit score?

While a low credit score can make it more challenging to secure a loan, we can help you explore options and find lenders who may consider your application.

How does the First Home Owner Grant work?

The First Home Owner Grant is a government initiative that provides financial assistance to eligible first home buyers. The amount and what you're eligible for vary by state and territory.

What additional costs should I consider when buying my first home?

Consider costs like stamp duty, legal fees, building and pest inspections, moving expenses, and potential renovations or repairs.

How long does the home loan approval process take?

The approval process can vary, but it typically takes between 1-4 weeks, depending on the lender, your financial situation, and the completeness of your application.
