There’s a Facebook group called ‘Mortgage Brokers Australia’ that I get banned from all the time. Unlike others in my field, I don’t start conversations, but I’ll often call out marketing pretenders on their ubiquitous BS. One such example is ‘Jessica’. I only know of her because I inherited somebody that had worked with her, so I’m familiar with her
This is a very important note for clients. You’ll be hearing more from us via email as recent and pending Yabber changes will impact everybody.

This has
I saw a post on LinkedIn a few weeks back where a broker was celebrating the fact that he was working his weekend in his pyjamas. Each to their own, I guess, but the same weekend was very different for me. Starting on a Saturday morning, I supported four of my brokers and property guys with a seminar in SW
This is an important note for clients. We’ve updated the ‘Formly’ module on your website and in Yabber. We’re migrating all foms manually over the next couple of days, so you might experience some minor disruptions.

Berger & Sons Paint Works, Rhodes, Sydney, 2nd August 1937. Operating since 1916, Berger was (and still is) a popular local brand (who can forget “keeps on keeping on”). In 1923 Berger Paints contributed 22,7125 litres of paint to the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge to protect the bridge steelwork, so they’re an important part of Sydney’s history. Rhodes
Australia’s first stock exchange, located at Collins Street, looking east from Queens Street, Melbourne, 1883. In the 18 October 1852 issue of the ‘Argus’, Edward Khull listed 14 companies in which investors could buy shares. This was the first stock listing in Australia and led to the formation of the Melbourne Brokers Association, which traded from rented space in the
We uploaded videos to a client YouTube channel yesterday, and with a single block of just four hours with us the channel is now full of content and looks fantastic. We’ll chop up the primary video to create a further 100 snippets or so that will eventually find their way onto social channels. Having video on a YouTube channel is
Note to clients. We’ve updated the authentication system on your website as a result of some partner discussions last week (that moved the goalposts in a very beneficial direction). Yabber manages multiple groups of contacts, such as clients, partners, introducers, referrers, property groups, and so on, and the new system will update session permissions based on user groups and sub-groups.
The former Chiltern of the Bank of Australasia was designed by Anketell Matthew Henderson of Reed & Barnes Architects and constructed in 1877. The building was a fully operational branch of the Bank of Australasia until 1943 when it closed and became a private residence. The Bank building has also been an Italian Restaurant, the Mulberry Tree Tearooms/B&B and The
Meeting with Terry and Dan from nMB. Always a pleasure hangimg out with these guys. You have to look very hard for people that are more dedicated to their brokers.
This is a note for clients. We’ve added a ton of features to the website framework over the last few weeks – pictured is just a few of them. Far from exhaustive, the most recent update includes an autocomplete address form that immediately redirects to a full property page, the same for an emergency search engine, and a post-type based
