“It’s common for people to have a family doctor. I want to bring that same service level to our industry so that we can be their trusted financial adviser,” says Nathan Miglani, chief adviser and managing director of Loan Market Group Paramount.
The company prides itself on maintaining and nurturing relationships both with clients and internally. “Relationships have always been the driver for me, and I think that has enabled me to be as passionate about what I do today as I was when I first started, because we’re here to help people get to where they want to be financially,” he explains.
The diverse team of specialists at Loan Market Paramount can speak English, Hindi/Punjabi, Chinese, Filipino and Malayalam between them. For buyers, being able to communicate in their native language makes the finance application process a little easier and less stressful. A streamlined process drawing on the strengths of team members enables Loan Market Paramount to treat every application as a priority, making timely execution and proactive communication key aspects of the company’s approach.
Another unique selling point is that the team members enjoy areas of finance that “other brokers hate”. While the team advises first-home buyers and supports them on their journey, they also have expertise in construction and development finance, which other brokerages may find complex and time-consuming.
Over the next five years, Loan Market Paramount will be focusing on Canterbury and aims to achieve a 50% market share across the region. With the broking landscape changing rapidly, the company recognises the need to remain tech-savvy and is building on its technical infrastructure and internal processes.
The firm is now a proud recipient of NZ Adviser's Top Advisers award for the third year running. Although the team enjoyed tremendous success throughout the calculated period, it had its share of challenges.
“Banking policies during this period were very relaxed, with lending for investment properties in some cases up to 80% of the property’s value. So, the key challenge for us was around capacity,” says Nathan.
“While we have a dedicated administration team at Loan Market Paramount, service is the foundation of our business, so it was critical for us that we maintain the service level we’ve become renowned for, despite the great increase in the number of clients we were working with.”
Loan Market Paramount found that having a strong business structure was beneficial during this intense time. A key element of this is prioritising client communication, so every day before 10am, the team updates customers on how their applications are progressing.
“We added to the team during this period, and it was critical that we only added people whose values aligned with Loan Market Paramount’s brand values, which again, are around relationships and providing that personalised service.
“As such, our net promoter score has remained over 90% for the past 12 months and I believe this is entirely down to the fact that our clients are not numbers to us.
“It’s been such a draining 12 months with the property market getting out of control and then the Credit Contract and Consumer Finance Act bringing about so many changes,” he says.
“We’re humbled and grateful for the recognition. Our focus is, as always, firmly on our clients and success is simply a by-product of that focus.”
With plans for further growth over the next five years, Loan Market Paramount keeps exceptional customer care as its guiding tenet, along with the values of trust, respect and care. The team of like-minded mortgage advisers and support staff are passionate about delivering an exceptional customer experience. Whether customers are buying an affordable first home or a multimillion-dollar property, they can expect the same high standard of care from Loan Market Paramount.

Fillmore Construction was founded by Brent Fillmore in 1991. He was looking to start his own small construction business and the opportunity presented itself with many repeat client relationships. Through lessons learned from 13 years of managing projects, developing business and holding various VP roles with his previous employer, Brent formulated his own approach to running his company. He knew that the key to success was based on relationships and bringing repeated value to them. He was dedicated to the idea that one does not need hundreds of clients and instead must focus on ensuring that a smaller pool of clients was given the best service possible. With over 40 years of construction management experience Brent has remarkable expertise in nearly every facet of the construction industry.
