Too Busy For A Broker?

Are Australian business owners too busy for a mortgage broker? Rate Money and Peter Cole, the World's Biggest Fan of Mortgage Brokers, set out to investigate, starting with a mechanic. It turns out he knows about as much about fixing cars as most business owners have time to know about comparing home loans. You're busy running the business. Let Rate Money do the running around.

After a mechanic's job didn't go to plan, Rate Money sends Peter Cole, the World's Biggest Fan of Mortgage Brokers, to try painting. It isn't as easy as it looks, which is the point: business owners are good at running their business and shouldn't have to become finance experts as well. That's what a great mortgage broker is for.

Mechanic and painter both failed, so Peter Cole, the World's Biggest Fan of Mortgage Brokers, gives eye testing a crack. Reading an eye chart turns out to be hard, and reading the fine print on a finance deal isn't much fun either. Stick to what you're good at, and let a broker do the same.

Fourth time lucky? Peter Cole, the World's Biggest Fan of Mortgage Brokers, tries his hand at building and can't make a career of construction either. The lesson stands: stick to what you're good at and leave the finance to the brokers.

A mechanic, a painter, an optometrist and a builder. Across Australia, Peter Cole, the World's Biggest Fan of Mortgage Brokers, asked one question: are business owners too busy for a mortgage broker? The answer: that's exactly why they need one. You run the business. Let Rate Money do the running around.
