In a bid to become a larger player in the mortgage market, one of Australia’s biggest real estate groups has appointed a national manager for its home loans division.

Century 21 has recruited seasoned banker Ben Braysich to the position of national manager for Century 21 Home Loans.

Mr Braysich brings a wealth of financial services experience to the organisation. He spent three years at Macquarie Bank and seven years with the Commonwealth Bank, in roles that saw him win the 2016 NSW Private Banker of the Year Award and the 2016 National Private Banker of the Year Award.

Mr Braysich said he recognises a “natural synergy” between real estate and mortgages, despite a “constantly changing” regulatory environment.

“By engaging a C21 broker as a trusted partner in a financial dealing, consumers can expect to receive appropriate recommendations and informed solutions provided with the utmost care and knowledge,” he said.

Mr Braysich said his immediate plan is to attract and recruit the right individuals across all states to continue to contribute to Century 21’s “vibrant and inclusive” culture.  

Century 21 chairman and owner Charles Tarbey welcomed the appointment.

“Century 21 Home Loans has become a larger player in the mortgage market in recent years as the team has grown and benefited off the global and local real estate network and brand,” Mr Tarbey said.

“After an exhaustive search, the business felt that Ben was the right person to lead the group moving forward as he has a demonstrated track record in managing multiple stakeholders, developing and executing aggressive business plans and driving strong financial outcomes for clients.

“His strong vision for the group, coupled with his ability to get staff and stakeholders to buy into this vision, will be a powerful driver for the business in the future.”  

Century 21 Home Loans offers more than 500 loans from a range of lenders including large banks, key regional banks, credit unions and non-bank lenders.
