MORTGAGE BROKERS North Wollongong


Welcome to the North Wollongong home loan experts.

We've been helping North Wollongong home buyers, investors and families since 2014, with home loan advice that works for you - not the bank.

We had a great experience with Greg from SimpleFin regarding what to do with our home loan, the funds we had in offset and how we could look to invest for our future. We would have set our home loans up all wrong if it wasn't for Greg. Highly recommend working with him, it was great!." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Your first home or your fifth, SimpleFin help make North Wollongong home loans and financing simple. With access to 60+ leading lenders, no pushy sales, no confusing lingo, just local finance experts that find real options that works for you.


Greg began his broking career in 2014 at a boutique mortgage brokerage on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, quickly mastering the ever-changing lending landscape. In 2016, he joined NAB as an in-house mortgage broker, working with MLC (now IOOF/Insignia) Financial Planners, where his strong relationships and client-first approach led to rapid success.


From 2017 to 2024, Greg held key roles at PLAN, Choice, FAST, and Loan Market, ultimately serving as State Manager under Loan Market’s new private ownership.


Now, as a proud Wollongong local with a young family, Greg is dedicated to helping Wollongong locals achieve their financial dreams through home ownership and wealth creation.
