Aussie has once again finished its year on a high with its 1,350 Aussie Group brokers posting a record number of settlements.
The 2015 calendar year saw well over $21 billion in settlements; almost $3 billion higher than 2014. nMB and Aussie’s retail and mobile broker channels all exceeded their previous records, though Aussie’s thriving retail channel set the pace with a massive 18 per cent growth and is now settling around $1 billion each month on its own.
Customer enquiries for the year were also the highest in the mortgage broker’s history, 9 per cent up on the previous year.
Chief Executive of Aussie, Mr James Symond, says the business has never been in a better position in its successful 24-year history.
“For some time our view has been that the industry will continue to grow its share to beyond 60 and 70 per cent of the residential mortgage flows and these results are a further example of this trend.
“We’re receiving record numbers of customers knocking on our door thanks to the success of our national and local marketing efforts, the matchless strength of the Aussie brand and the investment dollars we’re pouring into our products, technology, training, recruitment, support teams and projects,” he said.
“Our retail channel also really stole the show. Just over a decade ago we didn’t even have a single store – and now it’s absolutely thriving and showing no signs of slowing down as we head toward our 200th purpose built store within the next six months.
“We have strong plans to make 2016 another show-stopping year. We’re investing more than ever in building a world-class support structure for our brokers in the field to ensure their productivity is the best it can be. Now really is the time to give us a call if you want to join a team or own a business in an industry and company with boundless potential,” he said.
