Inside the next growth chapter of a $150 million market leader

High LVR: super high cost, complicated, high risk, only for first home buyers. Sound familiar?

In this episode of Broker Bulletin, Kath Persoglia sits down with Mario Emmanuel, Co-Founder of Skip by LMG, to debate the realities of high LVR lending and the current sentiment in the market around these products.

Busting the myths around 98% LVR lending, Mario shares some real client stories, from a finance professional earning close to $1 million who chose a 98% LVR loan over selling her investments, to a family who went from a $1.1 million budget to $1.3 million without finding extra cash, to a newly single mum who used Skip to rebuild her life after divorce.

What you'll take away:

 How Skip keeps things simple: single rate, single tenor, fast turnarounds
 Why high LVR doesn't have to mean weaker serviceability
 Why a cash buffer can be the smarter, safer option
 Why Skip is helping far more clients than just first home buyers

Are 20% deposits dead? Or is high LVR lending really too risky?

Jason Wylie has always been a high performer. But writing big numbers was never the actual goal.

In this episode of Broker Bulletin, the Director and Principal Broker at Loan Market Capital sits down with Alberto Gorgioski and gets candid about what building a business really looks like from the inside: the hires that changed everything, the leadership lessons that took years to land, and why culture will always beat volume when it comes to the long game.

His real goal? Building a company so well known, so trusted, and so good to work for that people come knocking on his door.

In this episode, you’ll hear:
Why a toxic high-performer is still a no, even if they write $100 million a year
The social media strategy turning cold calls into warm ones
The one hire every growing brokerage needs before they think they’re ready

Why I tell my brokers to beat me (and why I’ll never let them)

Most brokers shy away from complex scenarios. Sue Vuong has built her whole career on them.

A chartered accountant turned mortgage broker, Sue has built her Perth-based business on the clients others turn away: the self-employed, the complex, the ones who've already heard no.

In the latest Broker Bulletin, Loan Market Chief Marketing Officer Angela Tracey sits down with Sue to unpack the mindset, systems, and real-world wins behind a broker who's built her whole reputation on being the trusted advisor in the room.

What you’ll takeaway:
Why honesty when things go wrong is your most powerful trust-building tool
How a partnership took her pipeline to exponential growth
Why the lowest interest rate isn’t always the goal
