Becoming a

referral partner

We value like-minded referral partners and have helped build our businesses since 2014.

Our partners have worked hard to build a valued client base, and want a partner they can trust to deliver with the same level of integrity and experience.

The benefits of a 
referral partnership

An added service

Instead of leaving clients to find their own way with property, we can take your leads, land them gently in the business and preserve your level of service and integrity.

Help your valued community

Our experts are here to help your clients achieve their ideal property outcomes and ultimately help grow your community.

Monetise your community

Building a community is hard. We’re here to help you benefit commercially from having built it.

Step-by-step

We take your clients through a robust process

At Alcove, we break our process in to six parts to carefully guide your clients to the right advice.

First we have a short chat to better understand you and your property ambitions. Crucially, we want to understand the broader context here: where are you in life, what are the next steps and what role does this property have in that.

We brief the Strategy team of ex Financial Planners and Accountants to crunch the numbers, assess the entire lending market and create a list of options right for you.

Once a strategy is agreed, we lodge it with the bank, leveraging our Tier 1 partner status to deliver the best result. Because our lodgement is based on a personalised strategy via trusted lender relationships, our conversion rate is well above industry benchmark.

Once you have approval, you may need help on deciding what to buy. We can help partner you with recommended Buyers Agents throughout the country.

Once you have the right loan, and the offer accepted, you settle on your property. We work hard to make this process clear, easy and stress-free for you.

It doesn’t end there though - we keep in touch with all of our clients on an ongoing basis. Often to proactively get their rate down, but also to see if there are any new plans we can support with.
