Nectar General Manager Stephen Harris paid tribute to Nectar’s loyal customers, whose referrals to friends, family and colleagues are vital to the growth of the business.
“It’s a great feeling as a broker, knowing that if you take good care of your customers, they’re really likely to recommend you to someone else. That’s one more first home buyer or family looking for their dream home that we’re able to help get a fairer deal on their finance!”.
