What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Refinancing, investment lending and new home builds recur as the main services described by those who have dealt with this Nowra lender, with several accounts spanning repeat dealings over a number of years. Matt Cooney is named repeatedly as the driving force behind the experience, and praise for his professionalism and expertise comes alongside frequent references to his empathy and genuine willingness to guide homeowners through buying, owning and selling property. Communication is a point that comes up often: customers describe being kept informed before and after each stage, with the paperwork explained and simplified rather than left to confuse.

Reviews regularly refer to speed, noting finance arranged and refinanced quickly, and coordination with conveyancers and real estate agents that kept settlements moving. A better rate than a previous lender is cited in one account, and friendly service from the wider team is noted alongside Matt's own manner. Several describe him as consistently available through a demanding process, and others say the outcome was strong enough that they have returned for further lending needs. The recurring thread is a smooth, well-managed path to finance.

Through a difficult process in which it seemed no one was on our side, Matt always was. Ask for Matt by name; you won't be disappointed.

Leesa was fantastic to deal with throughout the entire lending process. She made everything straightforward, kept us informed every step of the way, and was always quick to answer any questions we had. Her professionalism, knowledge and friendly approach made what could have been a stressful experience so much easier. We really appreciated her support and would highly recommend Leesa and the team at Rate Money to anyone looking for a great lending experience.

This team is so friendly, so easy to communicate with. I should have gone straight here to refinance before trying a bank on my own. They were seamless, the process was easy and Matt knew how to get the right loan we needed

If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, responsive, and truly invested in their clients, I couldn't recommend Matt Cooney more highly. His guidance and simplifying the refinancing process is so appreciated. Working with someone who is a nice and friendly person makes all the difference! I feel like we wouldn't be where we are now if it wasn't for Matt. Thank you!
