Partnership gives brokers access to bridging finance solution
Tech-driven non-bank lender Bridgit has teamed up with outsource Financial, an award-winning national mortgage aggregator, in a move that will expand its offering to more brokers and Australian homeowners.
The aggregator partnership with outsource Financial, which works with more than 1,000 brokers, expands Bridgit’s total network to more than 3,400 brokers.
Since its launch in 2021, Bridgit’s bridging finance solution has been offering consumers a simple online loan application, approval within 24 hours, and three-months interest free. To date, it has processed more than $1.5 billion in bridging loan applications.
Aaron Bassin (pictured above left), Bridgit CEO and co-founder, said the two companies align and share similar values, with a strong focus on broker education, wellbeing and support.
Bassin said partnership will provide outsource Financial brokers access to Bridgit’s resources, tools, and innovative technology so they can provide high-quality customer service and care to their customers.
“outsource Financial’s award-winning educational program for brokers will be enhanced by Bridgit’s extensive knowledge in all aspects of bridging finance,” Bassin said.
“We couldn’t be more excited to work with the talented team at outsource Financial, including their CEO Tanya Sale, a prominent leader and pioneer in the field of women in finance, and head of training and education, Heather Gallagher, who won the Mentor of the Year award.”
Sale (pictured above right) said that outsource Financial was focused on upskilling its brokers in technology tools, so the partnership with Bridgit was a “no-brainer.”
“We are pleased to be working with Bridgit to offer our brokers and their respective clients with more innovative bridging solutions so they can act fast and not miss out on opportunities to purchase their next dream home,” she said.
Bridgit head of distribution Stephen Doyle said the lender was excited about the growth of Bridgit in the broker channel and the new partnerships it continued to establish.
“We are dedicated to expanding the network of brokers who can access our innovative bridging solution and the opportunity to diversify the products they provide,” Doyle said. “We look forward to working with the outsource Financial team.”
