How Buyers Home Base is helping Mortgage Brokers all across Melbourne

We have been creating great relationships with several Mortgage Brokers all across Melbourne quite simply by bringing their Pre-Approved clients back to them much, much sooner.

having purchased their home. The average reported conversion rate from them giving their Clients a Pre-Approval - to actually purchasing a home has gone from 50% to 95%.

​ That means that you will get paid for the work that you are doing when preparing the Pre-Approvals 45% MORE of the time.

When a Buyer receives their Pre-Approval (especially First Home Buyers), they enter the marketplace very excited … but very quickly can become disillusioned and confused. We help “hold their hand” through the stages of purchasing a home, advising and directing them through the maze and bring them back to you sooner. This also avoids losing them altogether if they finally find a home that is being sold by an Agency that has an affiliation with, or has a Mortgage Brokering arm to their Agency. Agents will usually try to sway the Buyer to use this Broker that is within their company (as many of them get kickbacks for doing this), and you may never see them again. This does not happen when we are with them. We bring them back to you, the Mortgage Broker who did the work and helped them get their Pre-Approval.

Not only is this of an obvious advantage to YOU the Mortgage Broker, but also to your Clients who finally purchase their dream home or investment property. We are viewed by these Mortgage Brokers as a value add to their business. It truly is a Win/Win/Win for all parties.

To take this a step further, we are now doing First Home Buyer Seminars with Mortgage Brokers to not only educate the marketplace, but to develop deeper relationships with clients and potential clients.

If you would like to know more about how we can work with you to increase your conversion rate of Pre-Approvals to completed purchases, or have an interest in hosting a 
First Time Home Buyers Seminar, please contact Julie DeBondt-Barker, Director of Buyers Home Base on 0424 162 818.
