“The mortgage market remains challenging but feedback from PLAN Australia members attending the conference confirms that brokers are genuinely excited about creating a more professional, educated industry and they’re more motivated than ever to build successful, competitive operations.
“Without doubt there is opportunity for brokers who are educated, with better business skills, and PLAN Australia members are clearly determined to succeed.”
