Even in this challenging market, there are still between 40,000 to 50,000 properties being financed every month!
Much has been written about the state of the housing and financial markets.
The US sub prime meltdown, trillion dollar bailouts, the cost of funds etc.
There has certainly been a shake out and some of the major non-bank lenders who once dotted the financial landscape are gone.
Property is still a major asset in Australia and many people still aspire to the dream of owning their own home.
Whilst in many areas values have reduced considerably causing pain and grief to some, it also offers affordability to others... and they need finance.
Investors are enticed by some of the developers liquidation bargains and repossession sales... and they need finance.
The numbers may have changed but the need for finance will always exist.
We are a well established mortgage and finance group.
As part of our expansion plans we are recruiting and mentoring>>suitable candidates throughout Australia and New Zealand toward building their own mortgage business.
We also have very exciting opportunities for team leaders>>.
The Rewards
To offset some softening in the market, it is now becoming common for modern day mortgage broker to add extra products and services including general finance (car, equipment, personal loans etc) and insurance (life, disability ).
Whilst there are very healthy commissions and renewal fees associated with general finance and insurance, let's here focus on mortgages.
As an accredited mortgage broker you can earn income from 2 primary sources
1.An up-front commissionof approx 0.40% to 0.60% of the loan amount depending on the chosen lender.
This means you can receive around $1,500 to $2,000 upfront on a typical $350,000 loan
plus
2.trailing commission, of around 0.15% to 0.20% per annum (depending on the lender) paid monthly for the life of the loan!
This means you could also receive over
$50 every month for the same $350,000 loan.
Imagine when you have 50 loans each paying $50 per month.
