Email / phone / after hours broker

Can anybody recommend a broker who can work over email / phone after hours or on Saturday?

I work full time and don't have easy access to phone in work hours, and then do the whole feed/wash/bed the kiddy routine until about 8pm.

Many thanks.

 

Find one in Perth, they're a few hours behind EDST.

That's a great idea, thanks.

 

Or an Australian Licensed Broker living in UK they are 10 hours behind......

 

You'll likely find that many brokers are available out of traditional hours - yours is a scenario that many others are in so they need to be adaptable

 

To start...which state are you in ?

 

Pretty much every broker I know works outside 'normal' hours

 

second recommendation for @Jess Peletier
Both for time zone benefit and actual service

Cheers,

Hi Ben,

We're based in Perth and a lot of our eastern states clients love that we are still working normal biz hours when they've knocked off for the day! It does make it super convenient.

 

Absolutely. It is by its nature a 24/7 type of gig...... at least in the early years .

Maybe not quite literally...but certainly requires significant non standard hours if you wish to make a real go of it . Unless of course you are quite fine saying no to business... which is also fine. As others have said. Each to their own.

Did you find someone @Ben43 ?

 

Not if you value your sanity. Which most brokers do...and those that don't...well, do you want a frazzled wreck doing your finance?

 

Broking can't be done in normal 9 to 5 hours that's for damn sure

 

I seem to manage it. But I'm not on my own, I've got a team helping. But they only work business hours also.

 

So you never answer client calls outside those hours?
I offer service to my clients outside the normal hours all the time and I'm not bitter about it one bit, they love it cause they can call me on a weekend when making an offer on a property or outside their work hours as not everyone is available during the day.
Each to their own

 

Actually possibly Rob does, I'm not sure. But I don't - my family are my priority on the weekends and in reality there's very little that requires me 'that' minute.

Most urgent things can be pre-empted with thorough communication and planning, and most other urgent things aren't actually urgent, I find.

It does happen occasionally that I'll return a call Monday morning from a potential client who has already found someone on the weekend - but I'm perfectly fine with that.

I love my clients, but I love my family more - just

 

Not yet but I did get some PMs, plus the idea to use a Perth based broker is pretty good. I have some time off work coming up, so I might wait until then.
