Aussie Mortgage Broker Mike Buchecker Named Industry's Best

Out of thousands of submissions, Aussie's Mike Buchecker has been named as the winner of the individual category of Mortgage Broker of the Year in the coveted Mortgage and Finance Association of Australia (MFAA) annual Excellence Awards.



    SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, March 17, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Mr Buchecker, a Brisbane-based broker who has been with Aussie for more than a decade, and has been a top performer for the company in mortgages and cross-sales. He has also regularly featured in the Top 100 Broker lists for a number of industry publications.

He has also overcome a number of health issues including losing much of his sight for a period of time and a broken leg, to continually perform at the highest level in his profession.

"I'm very proud to have been recognised for this award," he said. "When I began in this industry I wasn't sure whether I would be a good mortgage broker, so to be named as the MFAA's best is overwhelming.

"But I was motivated and realised it was a role that would return rewards only if I put the effort in. I decided my business would be underpinned by superior customer service and communication. These are still my priorities today."

Aussie CEO Mr Stephen Porges said Aussie was full of outstanding brokers, but Mike's achievement was a testament to his skills, dedication and commitment to his customers and Aussie.

Mr Porges said: "For four months Mike's colleagues drove him to appointments as his eye problems meant he was unable to drive. This speaks volumes of the type of person Mike is, and of the respect he garners from his fellow brokers.

"Aussie brokers are out there working hard to secure a better deal for ordinary Australian homeowners and it's fantastic that Mike has been recognised for his efforts."
