Nick’s main role concentrates on managing his team of mortgage advisers, leading the business development opportunities at Right Financial, developing relationships with new referral partners and building on current relationships with existing partners and increasing the company’s lead generation using a targeted online presence.
Prior to Right Financial, Nick was a fully qualified practicing Mortgage Broker and Financial Adviser at Stanford Brown. This experience uniquely placed Nick above his Mortgage Broking peers by assisting him to be able to understand a diverse range of client finance requirements, utilising his technical skills attained as a financial adviser and applying them to his clients lending needs. This background allowed him to fully understand his clienteles’ personal financial situation, allowing him to seamlessly match his client’s financial position and goals with the correct lending structure.
Having successfully purchased and renovated a number of residential properties, Nick is able to use his own personal experiences to help navigate his clients through the entire process from applying for pre approval through to searching for a property, negotiating, renovating and selling.
Nick believes that a valuable mortgage broker relationship is one built on trust and solid communication for the entire period a client has debt in their life, not just a set and forget one off basis.
In his personal time, Nick enjoys spending time researching real estate, investing in property and has just completed a knock down rebuild on Sydney’s Northern Beaches with his wife Raquel, and three children Chloe, Phoenix and Lennox.
