Entry Pathways

There is no single route into broking at Redrock. Some people arrive as a career change with no lending background at all. Others already run an accounting practice, financial planning firm or real estate agency and are tired of referring finance work away for a token fee. A third group wants a branded business of their own under the Specialist model, with a local presence. This section maps those three pathways, what each expects of you at the start, and how onboarding differs between them.

Already a licensed broker? These pages are about entering the industry. If you are an established broker or a team looking at changing aggregator, start instead with Which Aggregator Fits Your Situation, the Switching Aggregators FAQ and Why Redrock. Redrock competes for experienced brokers as directly as it does for new entrants.

In this section

• Three Ways to Join Redrock: Career Change, Add Broking to Your Business, or Franchise — the three routes compared in one place.

Subsections

• Start a Broking Career — entering broking without a lending background.
• Add Broking to Your Business — adding broking to an existing client base.
• Broking Franchise — running a branded business under the Specialist model.

Whichever route fits, mentoring forms part of the arrangement for new brokers — Mentoring at Redrock sets out what that involves. Mentoring reflects MFAA and FBAA membership standards and the licensee's supervision obligations rather than any statutory rule.
