How we contribute to the Great Australian Dream

Aug 1, 2018 | Finance, News and Updates

We’re pretty proud of the work we do. Every day we get to help Aussie families secure finance for the home of their dreams and set up their financial future. Here’s why we’ll always put you first.

You may have seen news reports in recent times regarding the lending practices of some of the banking industry’s less scrupulous operators.

And to be honest, it can sometimes be a little frustrating seeing these headlines when we work so hard to help families achieve their life-long dream of purchasing their own home.

So, we’d like to clear the air. It’s the practices of a few big players, not mortgage brokers like us, that are bringing the mortgage broking industry’s reputation into disrepute.

And a recent independent report by Deloitte Access Economics has backed up mortgage brokers just like us with the following findings.

Deloitte Access Economics’ key findings

  • More than 90% of customers are happy with their mortgage broker’s performance.
  • Mortgage brokers on average have almost 14 years’ industry experience.
  • Mortgage brokers drive competition as they have access to 34 lenders, not just the major banks (the share for non-bank lenders has increased from 21.4% in 2013 to 27.9%).
  • The mortgage broker channel has contributed to a fall in lenders’ net interest margins of more than three percentage points over the past 30 years.

Here’s another interesting stat. Deloitte also found that 70% of the average mortgage broker’s business is referred from existing customers.

This highlights just how important it is for us to put you, our client, at the centre of everything we do.

Because without your ongoing support, we wouldn’t have a business to run.

So if you, a family member or a friend would ever like to find out more about how we can help secure a great Australian dream home, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
