Why partner with LJ Hooker Home Loans?

Our commitment to your business.

This booklet highlights how the team at LJ Hooker Home Loans assists with your business growth and connects you with more clients.

LJ Hooker Home Loans has been an integral part of the LJ Hooker Group since 1999. During this time we have helped many of our real estate partners list, sell, and manage more properties, increasing the value proposition to their clients.

In 2014 we helped more than 5,000 people with their property lending needs. In doing so, we settled over $1.4 billion in mortgage lending. Our total funded portfolio is now over $5 billion comprising more than 30,000 clients.

LJ Hooker provides the market with a unique service offering under one linked brand. Our real estate professionals provide access to market leading listing options, property reports and far reaching property selection. Our home loan teams provide guidance to clients with the best mortgage products and cash flow strategies to enhance the selling, buying, and investment experience.

It’s not all about home loans.A key reason why more and more of our real estate offices are connecting with LJ Hooker Home Loans is to increase lead generation and customer retention.

Our home loan partners deliver you property listing leads, property management leads, and offer tailored purchasing solutions to enhance the property buying process. We also assist with client retention under our brand, opening up strategic marketing touch points for the database.

It’s our local area too.

No doubt you work hard to establish your name and the LJ Hooker brand in the local area, and so do we. We work with you to promote the LJ Hooker brand and create awareness in your local area. Our property buying pre-approval process provides you with links to pre-qualified buyers in your selling area. We also increase listing leads by speaking with people about investing and upgrading, before they hit the property market.

We are also franchise owners just like you. The brand, local area, and most importantly the customer, are central to our business success. We’re investing in local area shop fronts to increase brand presence, and building businesses with professionals to support our partnership.

From attending open homes and auctions, providing you with quality business leads, guiding and training your team on how to use LJ Hooker Home Loans, through to supporting you at local events,

we’re right beside you.

Appraisals

Sometimes the process of buying and selling can be daunting. We have fantastic products that can transition people to a new home before they sell. Perhaps finance pre-approval will help them feel comfortable should they need to move quickly?

Our free income and equity assessments are also a great way to educate people on their opportunities. They allow people to feel in control, and help them take the first step if property investment is part of their wealth strategy.

Open Homes

We are your open home support team.

Our lending specialists can attend your open homes, helping you to answer queries quickly and professionally and supporting you with feedback. By being on the ground with you we really get to know your business.

Open Home Follow Up

Sometimes the home was just not right. Or, it may have been out of the price range. That doesn’t mean you’ve lost an opportunity. Our team is available to follow up your open home lists, provide you with feedback, and potentially open up opportunities for you. This is where we use finance pre-approvals to help people feel comfortable with buying decisions. At this point we educate people on what government grants or stamp duty concessions may be available to them. We are then able to refer the client back to you with a clear budget in mind.

Even if they buy elsewhere, we can still retain customers under the LJ Hooker Home Loans brand and pass referrals back to you when future property needs arise.

Here are some of the key areas where a home loan referral can assist you and your clients.

What opportunities are available?

Your tenant database

Many Australians are now thinking differently about how to use property. Property buying for investment purposes may now be the first choice for many people. That is why connecting with your tenant base is vital. Quite likely a large portion of your tenants will become buyers, or may already own property.

For those wanting to enter the property market, why not partner with us to educate them on the steps to buying? This creates a pipeline of pre-qualified buyers which is a powerful listing conversion tool.

Contract Signing

You’ve done the hard work. Now is not the time to lose control of the sale process. Our lending specialists can help buyers move quickly, helping you to stay in control. With full updates along the way, you’ll be able to keep building your pipeline; knowing you have a trusted partner managing the finance and settlement process.

We understand the contract process and offer full portfolio tracking of any referral received.

Auctions

The auction process can be daunting for some people. As part of your team, we offer hands on support before, during, and after the process. Finance pre-approvals are vital for auction purchasers and guidance during the process can help clients know their limits and opportunities. A successful bid will sometimes require clients to settle fast and you need to partner with a professional who fully understands the auction process.

For vendors, knowing equity requirements and timing around finance approvals can be vital to making decisions during the auction. Our upfront guidance provides comfort when the pressure is on.

After purchase

We offer your clients a free review service. To help manage their property, save interest, or buy again, we’re on hand to offer ongoing support to them as a client of yours, and ours, for life.

Many other opportunities are available. Speak with us on how we tailor a service proposition that enhances your business opportunities.

The opportunities continue.

We offer a professional range of marketing items that enhance business opportunities. Create an edge to any display during events, open homes and in your local office.

In conjunction with our ongoing commitment to you and your team, we also offer scripts and dialogues to support your referral activities.
