"A large part of mortgage broking is about supporting your local community. Whether its helping people secure finance or contributing in other ways. I give back to the local school, by supporting students and my customer's children with business initiatives by going to their markets and stalls to help them out."A big thank you to Effie Nicol for contributing to our Broker Panel this afternoon. Effie was joined by fellow YBR Group brokers Andrew Soo, Merrick D'Souza, Justin Dale and Tamara Virgo!

We're always lucky when we're joined by the FBAA's Peter J White AM, who is a leading advocate for the broking industry and the importance of brokers to Australian Borrowers. Fresh from winning the Inaugural YBR Group Appreciation Service Award, Peter shared some wonderful insight with Glenn Mitchell about the future of the industry. Thank you to Sascha Moore and Justin Dale - Mortgage Broker for providing useful guidance to our brokers on how to improve their social media marketing.#ybrnationalconference2024
