A mortgage company is traditionally a business that derives their sole income from providing loans in the form of mortgages to individuals and making money through the interest earned on these.

However, nowadays there are a plethora of companies in Australia offering mortgages and not all of them are solely mortgage providers.

A number of them, like the banks, offer additional financial services. Some are obviously larger and better known than others, but not surprisingly that does not mean that they are the best.

Some mortgage providers within Australia are:-

• The National bank
• ANZ bank
• eChoice
• Australian Mortgage Company (AAA)
• Wizard
