Major brokerage releases app as part of digital rebrand

Other features include calculators for loans, stamp duty, borrowing limits and extra payments, while the app also gives agents the ability to refer business leads to brokers.

Oxygen general manager Alan Hemmings said the functionality of the website and app has been integral to their design.

“We believe that a fresh, innovative website that is consumer-friendly and a useful tool for agents referring business is paramount to providing quality information to our customers,” he said.

“In today’s world of fast-moving technology, we recognise the need to provide information and to interact with our customers and business partners.”

Mr Hemmings said Oxygen has ensured that the tools are in place to allow agents to better interact with clients, providing informed answers on likely loan repayments and stamp duty costs.

“This will allow obtaining a home loan to be stress free and simplify the process with real-time information,” he said.

Oxygen has also rebranded its marketing collateral in an attempt to streamline its customer service offering to its brokers, real estate agents and consumers.

John McGrath, chief executive of Oxygen’s parent company, McGrath Estate Agents, revealed in January that there are large revenue streams waiting to be tapped by its broking arm.
