About Us

“Our mission has remained consistent since launching in 2007.“

The MQG Story: Supporting Mortgage Professionals Nationwide since 2007.

The Money Quest Group is one of Australia’s most dynamic and trusted financial services groups, proudly supporting a network of more than 600 national mortgage professionals across five distinct brands: MoneyQuest, Freedom Aggregation, Buyers Choice, Keylend, Loans Actually, and Southern Cross Broker Network.

Since launching in 2007, our mission has remained consistent: to empower mortgage professionals nationwide with the tools, support, and freedom they need to grow a their own thriving mortgage broking business. We’ve grown into a national powerhouse by combining industry-leading technology with personalised service and a culture grounded in integrity, innovation, and care.

Whether you’re an experienced broker ready to build a nationally recognised business under our franchise brand, or you want the freedom to grow under your name with the backing of a boutique aggregator, we’ve created a group that empowers you to succeed, your way.

Two Clear Pathways. One United Group.

At the heart of the Money Quest Group is choice. We offer two powerful business models carefully curated to support finance professionals at every stage of their journey:

Join a Franchise Brand

Step into a proven business model and benefit from the strength of a trusted national brand. As a MoneyQuest franchise owner, you gain access to national marketing support, training and education, compliance protection, business coaching, and an award-winning technology ecosystem. It’s ideal for brokers ready to scale with the full-service backing and brand visibility.

Operate Under Your Brand

Create and run your own brand. Freedom Aggregation provides you with full autonomy over your brand while enjoying service and support. You’ll receive direct access to compliance experts, marketing tools, lender support, CRM technology, and the freedom to create your own brand and run your business your way.
