Our Story… so far

Founded in 2019 by a team of mortgage professionals, Rate Money was created to address a critical gap in the lending industry. With a unique focus on self-employed borrowers, Rate Money offers tailored home loan solutions to meet the specific needs of this often underserved segment, making it a valuable resource for those seeking financing.

As the first lender to eliminate unfair fees on most products, Rate Money has disrupted the industry, prioritising fairness and accessibility. This innovation has earned numerous awards, highlighting Rate Money’s commitment to positive change in the mortgage landscape, benefiting both Rate Money's franchisees and borrowers alike.

What We Do

With over ten years of experience in financial services, Joe Firdaus knows what his self-employed clients want more than anything when looking for a loan: a yes. Since 2021, Joe has been building a team of hard-working mortgage experts who will work with you to find the perfect loan solution, even if you’ve been told ‘no’ by other lenders.

Joe and his team are committed to making homeownership a reality for their clients and pride themselves on their ability to find innovative, tailored solutions that work with the complexities of self-employment. They will work with you every step of the way to ensure your expectations are met and exceeded.
