Watching Channel 9’s incredibly popular The Voice television show this week, Loan Market’s Marios Rokka said he was “thrilled” to see two of his clients performing.
The brother and sister act, who were chosen to be on Team Ricky after singing Jessie J’s “Nobody’s Perfect” in their audition, have been clients of the Melbourne-based broker for the past two years.
“When I first met with them two years ago, to help them purchase their first home, I wasn’t aware they had such enormous talent. Sebastian had been a producer for ages and I had only heard Bec sing once but to know that she had only just recently start performing in public with Sebastian was a complete shock,” Mr Rokka said.
“The twins are both amazing people and come from a wonderful family, and the company they keep is a testament to their big hearts and big talent,” he said.
Mr Rokka said he was proud of the couple who had worked incredibly hard to get onto the show and thought they had a very good chance at winning.
“Obviously they’re incredibly talented but they’re also very hard working. I’m certain they’ll do very well on the show and I’ll be asking the rest of the team at Loan Market to get behind them,” he said.
In addition to The Voice contestants, Mr Rokka said he has also helped a finalist in The Biggest Loser with finance as well as a contestant on The Block.
