One year ago, Galel Fajardo had no financial planner partners. Today, he’s not only got them, but he has them trained to pitch his services in a very specific way to their clients.
A loan officer from Costa Mesa, California, Fajardo has increased his business 25% since he began using Mortgage Coach 1 year ago. He credits the Equity Repositioning Analysis report with the opportunities he’s been given. “My financial services partners love it,” he says.
PROBLEM/SOLUTION:
A financial planner referred a couple who was knee-deep in debt after remodeling their home using credit cards. The client wanted to start saving for retirement but didn’t have any money to spare. In addition, they were stuck in an option ARM that was about to recast. The FP sent them to Galel.
Their monthly expenses were $5,940, of which about $1,400 was their current mortgage payment. Galel persuaded them to more than double their mortgage payment to $3,617. At first they thought he was crazy — but then he showed them on the ERA how they would actually be saving $2,287 per month. That convinced them that Galel’s recommendation was in their best interest. They also took half the savings and invested it with the financial planner, which secured his trust and loyalty for Galel.
