ISCOVER
The Uptick Group, a leading resource centre for brokers, has launched the Property & Finance Academy with leading property and finance expert John Manciameli.
This specialist training program arms brokers with the knowledge and confidence to act as a buyer’s agent for their own clients – helping customers identify the right investment property and keeping the home loan relationship in-house.
With over a decade of appearances on Sky News as a finance and property expert, John Manciameli is one of Australia’s most trusted voices in the space. That’s why The Uptick Group has partnered with him to launch the Property & Finance Academy – a program designed by a broker, for brokers.
Using the same investment framework taught in the Academy, John has achieved extraordinary results for clients– with some seeing capital growth of up to 94% in just two to three years.
Solving the “Stuck” Phase for Clients
It’s a well-known obstacle for brokers: with pre-approvals done, clients often stall at the property search stage – unsure where to buy, what to buy, or how to start. Some sit in that space for months, or even years, without taking action.
This delay means brokers are left waiting on a home loan that may never eventuate – or worse, a client may go ahead and purchase via a real estate agent who then refers them to a different broker.
“Speaking from my personal experience, it’s been empowering turning those pre-approvals into settlements – there’s no barrier anymore that stalls conversations and leaves me wondering if they’ll come back,” says John Manciameli.
“Clients also value the chance to save time and money by having their trusted broker support the property acquisition process – especially when decisions are driven by data, not emotion, opinion, or bias,” he added.
A New Revenue Stream and a Stronger Client Relationship
With the Property & Finance Academy, brokers can confidently assist clients with investment property searches – shortening the customer journey and ensuring the broker remains at the centre of the transaction.
The Uptick Group CEO John Maxwell says this dual offering opens a new revenue stream for brokers, allows for stronger client engagement, and gives brokers the tools to grow their business sustainably through value-added service.
“It’s important to remember financing is only one part of the bigger picture. If you put yourself in the customer’s shoes, finding the right property is what they are focused on. You can either insert yourself into that playing field or sit back and let someone else take your client,” says John Maxwell.
“I know for a lot of brokers, an extra $15,000 to their bottom line each month without the stress of writing $2.5million to achieve the equivalent, will significantly reduce the workload and stress,” he said.
A Timely Launch Amid Industry Shift
The launch comes just weeks after national franchise Aussie revealed its own strategic pivot, announcing a brand refresh to become a one-stop-shop for property and finance.
The Uptick Group’s exclusive partnership arms independent brokers and boutique brokerages with the tools they need to not be left behind in the holistic industry shift.
“The power to take charge of the entire property journey should be a relief to many brokers. With a data-driven framework that is delivering strong results for Australians already, we believe the Property & Finance Academy will position brokers to be at the centre of the conversation”.
