2018 MPA Top 100 Mortgage Broker
Can’t believe out of 16,000 Mortgage Brokers in Australia, we’ve been featured in MPA's Top 100 Brokers List!
It honestly feels like a dream from where we started 3 years ago. I had just resigned from my decade long corporate career, packed my bags and left my family and friends to move to the Gold Coast to start Mortgage Channel.
A lot of the time, we only hear of the end result but don’t mention the sacrifices it took to get here. The countless hours working 80-90hrs a week, the self-doubt thinking mortgage broking wasn’t for me, facing client rejection after rejection, the stomach ulcers and stress when you get a decline, the isolation and loneliness in a new city and going against the grain of what society thinks one should do.
From those humble beginnings to winning the MFAA Young Australian Broker of the Year and featuring in Top 30 Young Guns in 2017 to now the Top 100 Brokers in Australia is beyond my wildest dreams.
This would not have been possible without the support of so many friends & family along the way. In particular:
Rolf Latham – you inspired me to become a Mortgage Broker through the example you set as being my broker. Thank you for taking me under your wing and mentoring me. You have truly changed my life and I’m grateful for this everyday.
Steven Ryan – my partner in crime for the first two years on the Gold Coast, thank you for pushing me on through the late nights. So happy to see you chasing your dreams and traveling the world now. Just shows when you have a goal and pursue it, nothing is impossible.
John & Kat – my all-star team. Thank you for your dedication and enthusiasm to provide the best customer service. I am honored to be able to work with you and am so proud to see John attain his Mortgage Broking license and how much Kat is contributing to the team in a short amount of time.
To all my clients – you are the reason why we do this. Thank you for the trust and faith in allowing us to be part of your journey. It blows my mind to see how many have been able to pursue their dreams in buying their first investment property, the dream home, growing a residual income or quitting corporate to pursue your passion in life.
It excites me to think what the future holds and continuing to build Mortgage Channel’s legacy.
Thanks,
Michael
