Brokerage launches new VIP club

Commonly referred to as Squadron XV, the club encompasses a diverse group of Mortgage Choice broking veterans, each of whom has been in business for 15 years.

Speaking about the club, Mortgage Choice chief executive Michael Russell said the members deserve recognition for dedicating themselves to their business, the brand and to their customers.

“The 17 franchisees who have been inducted into this esteemed club have developed a strong rapport and reputation within their local communities that we feel is essential to longevity in this business. They are role models within our network, having perfected their business plans over the years and determinedly maintained a high level of customer service despite the many challenges that have come their way,” he said.

“This select few have helped to uphold the inherent value of integrity and shape the customer for life philosophy that is Mortgage Choice and we are pleased to recognise their contribution.”

Highly regarded by the company’s lender panel partners, the club is anticipated to carry a prestigious status within the mortgage broking industry.

“Squadron XV members will receive a range of special privileges within Mortgage Choice as a reward for incredible service,” Mr Russell said.

“The incentives are also aimed at encouraging our other successful franchise owners to strive to reach this highly prized status.”
