What brokers really think of the market
Description
In this episode of Broker Daily Uncut, hosts Alex Whitlock and Eva Loisance are joined by Finni broker Costa Arvanitopoulos to unpack the biggest insights from the first ever Broker Pulse roundtable – and what brokers really think of the market.
From broker behaviour, borrower expectations, and shifting market dynamics under the microscope, the trio reflect on the evolving relationship between brokers and their clients – and the growing demand for honesty, clarity and upfront disclosure.
The hosts dive into the standout revelations from the Broker Pulse presentation, including fresh data on how borrowers choose their broker, why first impressions are more powerful than many realise, and the wake-up call brokers received on transparency around fees and remuneration.
They also take a look at what's driving rising fixed rates, why auction results might be hinting at softening confidence, and the widening gulf between house and unit prices that's reshaping investor strategy.
The episode rounds out with a look at the surging interest in SMSF lending – from higher rates to hands-on control – and what this means for investors searching for stability in an increasingly uncertain market.
