RAMS Home Loans today announced plans to expand its national franchise distribution network including opening new home loan centres in South Australia for the first time.
The Australian specialist lender said the move was necessary to cater for increased demand amongst its target market of first home buyers, self-employed people and property investors.
RAMS Head of Franchising, Clive Kirkpatrick said that despite the challenging market conditions, RAMS has grown its customer base to more than 15,000 and is performing well beyond original targets set when it was acquired by the Westpac Group in January 2008.
“In the past three months, RAMS home loan settlements have reached the highest amount in its 14-year history, with last month achieving the biggest settlement month ever experienced by the RAMS franchise distribution channel,†Mr Kirkpatrick said.
“RAMS customer call volumes from South Australia has doubled since October 2008 when the First Home Owners’ Grant boost was first introduced.
