He said the fee was paid on closing, with no trail commission.<\/p>\n<p>Brokers get paid average commissions of anywhere between 0.5% for one-year terms with the banks or \u2018A-lenders\u2019, and up to around 0.8% for a five-year term with A-lenders, or more specialist loans.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of market share, brokers have 40% of the overall market and 55% of first home buyers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Canada\u2019s battle with legislation<\/strong><br \/>\nAllen explained how Canadian brokers have had to overcome legislation changes, and how he managed to stay ahead of the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 2017 The Canadian Government introduced legislation to tighten the guidelines in which mortgage lenders would qualify borrowers,\u201d he said. \u201cThis legislation, formally known as a Stress Test, consisted of higher qualifying rates along with stringent credit and down payment requirements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis led to an instant reduction in home values buy up to 20% in some jurisdictions, all but taking the fire out of a hot Canadian real estate market. In addition to this many regional governments went a step further by adding a foreign buyer\u2019s tax that lead to a dramatic slowdown in foreign home buyers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese changes never had a big impact on my business as we have always stayed ahead of pack by diversifying our approach to brokering by focusing on home owners and equity lending.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find out more<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Allen will be speaking on &#8216;How to build a high performance bussines&#8217;\u00a0at the BBX event on 5 June at The Westin, Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>To register to the event,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/brokerbusinessexchange.com.au\/\">click here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>You can also read more from MPA\u2019s interview with Allen\u00a0in the next edition of MPA magazine.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is now only a few months away until our next Broker Business Exchange event, featuring speakers from across the globe to provide advice, insight and helpful discussion.
