Live mortgage free & financially secure

Crown Money is one of Australia’s leading financial coaching services where we have been helping clients pay off their houses in up to half the time. We structure client’s mortgages in a way that allows them to cut anywhere from 40 to 50% off the total amount that they will end up paying for their home, allowing them to be debt free up to twice as fast. 

When most people get a standard home loan, at the end of their 30 year loan term they end up paying back close to double the original loan amount to the bank due to interest payments. 

For the past 20 years we have specialised in helping clients save thousands of dollars in interest repayments and pay off their house much faster than what they’re currently tracking for. 

We have a wide range of financial coaching services to cater for all Australians and their financial needs and we also have financial coaching programs for people who don’t have a mortgage and need help with their money management.

If you have a deposit saved and you’re looking to purchase a property, we have a finance arm that helps you find the ideal finance structure and pre-approvals to enable you to purchase a property. If you don’t have a deposit, we will have to discuss with you a fee for service based on your specific circumstances.

The easiest way to describe the difference between an offset account and what we do as financial coaches is think of an offset account as a gym membership.

We’re like a gym membership with a personal trainer built in. We know that people with personal trainers get better results than those who just try and attempt to go to the gym themselves.

Offset accounts are there to traditionally help ‘offset’ interest. However, they don’t accelerate the reduction in principal to be paid out in under 15 years due to the way the offset loans are structured.

We deliberately structure our money management system so that it reduces principal rapidly and offsets interest at the same time. Getting a 2 prong attack of debt reduction and interest offset working in your favour. The other key difference we have seen with an offset account is they usually only save clients four or five years off a 30-year loan, compared to the vast majority of our clients using our Financial Coaching structure are out of debt and own their homes in under 15 years. The clients on the Crown Money Management system are outperforming what they were doing before they met us when they had an offset account, even though they have the same income and debt level.

Most of our clients have come from an offset account and a ‘cheap rate’ with a bank as their offset account wasn’t working as well for them as they had expected. Those clients are now saving 200% more and paying down their loans in 50% of the time. A big reason for this uplift in their performance is the financial coaching and software that allows us to coach you on your financial numbers such as your savings rate, your debt reduction speed, surplus cashflow position, what day you will own your home, and how much equity you’ve created in your property. The guidance we provide clients around increasing your income, with scripts and strategies on how to get pay rises, as well as helping reduce their expenses with initiatives such as Crown Coins and auditing your fixed expenses are key reasons these clients make and save as much money as possible compared to an offset account.

This Money Management system is designed to help accelerate your debt reduction as well as your net worth, and just because you’re disciplined and stick to a budget doesn’t mean that you’re outperforming financially. If you don’t know your numbers or measure them you aren’t in control financially. Do you know when you can make your next financial move such as buying your next property? Do you know how much you could afford, and when you can afford to do that? Do you know your savings rate? Your surplus cash flow position? Do you know exactly what day you’re going to pay your house off ?

Just because you stick to a budget doesn’t mean that you’re financially secure and in the best position where your money is working the hardest for you and you’re making excellent financial progress.

A lot of the time people do not have a financial plan in place. We come in and help build that financial strategy and tailor it to clients and their specific goals and dreams.

No, we don’t control anyone’s money and we don’t pay anyone’s bills for them. We specifically help with the management of all cash flow and optimize it to make sure that your cash flow structure is running as efficiently as possible.

We simply make sure that your funds are available for you when your bills and large expenses are due.

We do not hold any money on behalf of you. Your loan and your bank accounts are in your name, so all your banking is with your bank or the new financial institution that you choose to take out your finances with. We do not hold any money on behalf of any clients at any time.

Most Australians think they can achieve great financial results as long as they’ve got a cheap rate and an offset account, but having seen over 6,500 Australian’s financial positions (with offset accounts and cheap rates), they’re unfortunately not outperforming the average Australian. Their savings rate is below 7%. Our average client savings rate is above 20%. Their annual debt reduction is close to $10,000pa and our average client’s annual debt reduction is over $30,000+.

Your current bank is focused on keeping you in debt for as long as possible, they’re financially incentivised to make sure you’re paying interest for the longest period of time.

We have designed loan structures and money management systems to help you reduce interest, cut down your loan term and make sure your money is working as hard as possible for you.

We all hate paperwork 🙂 This is similar to going on an overseas holiday. You’ve got the check-in, you’ve got the baggage check, and you’ve got customs and then you’ve got boarding of the plane… All of those frustrating hoops you’ve got to jump through to get to your final destination …. an amazing island holiday.

It’s very similar to this process as there is paperwork required, being in the financial services industry we need to be compliant with all the rules and regulations.

We have to comply with Anti Money Laundering, Know-Your-Client and Best Interest duty, it is an unavoidable part of this process.

The time for the Money Management system to be implemented and setup usually takes four weeks to six weeks from our initial meeting.

Clients usually have a ‘float’ sitting in their spending account or their Visa debit account. This float, is usually $1000+, and is sitting there to cover any emergencies on the weekends.

We are also able to help access funds for an emergency usually within a few hours. There are plenty ways to access money if there’s an emergency and we ensure that you’ll never be caught short.

There are no lock-in contracts, there are no handcuffs or penalties for leaving. You can come and go as you please. So if you want out, you can leave at any time. There’s no break costs. There’s no exit fees. Pure and simply you can pick and choose when you come and when you go.
