Count's former head of finconnect launches independent national mortgage aggregation group.

Former finconnect general manager Tanya Sale has resurfaced as the chief executive of the new independent national mortgage aggregation company Outsource Financial (Outsource).

Launching today, Sale said the group, which will not be owned by any bank or dealer group, will offer lending and leasing solutions to financial planners, accountants, lawyers and large professional services groups.

"We plan to differentiate Outsource by going back to basics and ensuring our writers and members are more than just a name," Sale told InvestorDaily.

She said what was lacking in the marketplace these days was the strong relationship aggregators had with their writers, which was the key to a successful aggregation company.

"Our aim is to have and to build an effective partnership with all of our people, which we will do through various means such as hosting seminars and workshops on business planning and marketing, and by ensuring there are experts available to support our people," Sale said.

"Our intentions are not to be the largest aggregator with that many mortgage brokers that we don't know who they are. Instead, we want a quality group of high-producing brokers who we can provide top service to in order to increase their volume of work."

Sale said a number of people had been hired by Outsource including former Resimac regional manager Debra Benn, who has joined the group as its regional manager.

Former finconnect direct writer Carmel Cappelleri and former finconnect lending manager Andrea Tassis had also come on board as directors and major shareholders, Sale said.

Sale exited finconnect, the national mortgage aggregator arm of dealer group Count Financial, in December 2009.

Sale, who has not yet been replaced, and her team of lending managers joined Count from the National Aggregation Group in October 2006.
