This year Mortgage Choice turns 20, a feat that is unmatched by most other brokerages.
Speaking about the milestone, the brokerage’s co-founder Peter Higgins said it was humbling to see the company grow from a two-man band into a franchise that boasts more than 502 loan consultants, 93 corporate staff, a loan book of $45 billion and 380 franchises.
“It is such a great accomplishment for the company to have made it to the 20 year mark with so many achievements under its belt,” Mr Higgins said.
"We have had a great management team over the years who have helped the brand reach bigger and better milestones. With the new financial planning business at the forefront of our most recent developments, it is pleasing to know its full steam ahead.
"The only limitation for Mortgage Choice is the imagination of where this iconic brand can be in 20 years from now. We are looking forward to what the future holds and welcome the next era of success."
The company's longest standing franchise owner, Ian Macpherson from Mortgage Choice in Cairns said It was wonderful to be a part of such a diverse, ever evolving network of fellow franchisees who share a passion for seeing Australians achieve their financial goals.
"Since joining the Mortgage Choice family in 1994, I have never looked back,” he said.
“The brand's strong business structures and customer focused service philosophy have helped me grow my franchise to the success that it is today and I anticipate it will also provide me with a very comfortable future."
