From a pool shed to a multi million dollar brokerage, and she still won't touch your home loan27 sept.30 min

Paper credit files. A pool shed for an office. Rebecca Justice built Benchmark Finance Group from nothing, and set one rule from day one: stick to what you're best at. In the latest Broker Bulletin, LMG's State Commercial Specialist, Todd Bateman, sits down with Benchmark Finance Group's Managing Director, Rebecca Justice to unpack why she has never diversified into home loans or asset finance, even as the rest of the industry leans into the write, develop, or refer model.

What you'll takeaway:

Why Rebecca has never diversified Benchmark beyond property and commercial finance

The $50 million deal that shows what can go wrong when brokers stray outside their lane

What Rebecca wishes she'd known about validation before going out on her own
