Redom Syed - Mortgage Broker

One week ago today… the most special night, with the most special person.

Moments like this teach me, real success begins at home.

Because of her, I’m sharper. Clearer. Stronger. More focused.

That energy spills into everything we do.

It shapes the culture we’re building. It fuels the 100+ people I have the privilege to lead.

It creates performance loops that start long before the workday begins.

Getting ‘home’ right has been the key to getting work right.

Redom Syed

Co-Founder Flint Group | Building the Future of Mortgages | 2025 FBAA Broker of The Year

I never had the luxury of being normal.

You see, my family got ripped apart financially when I was a teenager.

I made it my mission to fix it.

Now, with Sydney house prices the way they are, you can’t fix something like that quickly unless you do it differently.

Here’s what I did differently 👇

1. Had the courage to quit the beaten path.

At 24, I walked away from my dream job i spent 10 years chasing to start a business.

Most people thought i was an idiot.  

2. Refused to stop until I was near the best at it.

Because being “good” has never been acceptable to me.

3. Shared openly. Always.

People call it generous — it’s not. 

I do it for me. Sharing gets me closer to my mission, so I do it.

4.  Invested early, reinvested big, and went hard when it was boom time.

Tip: we’re about to enter boom time again. Go big when you can.

5. Used pain as fuel.

Most people run from it. 

I live it, breathe it, own it.

Pain and love are the two most powerful emotions I know. 

I do what I do out of love for my family, and the pain of the past keeps me moving when I can’t be bothered.

6. Followed purpose.

Helping others make better money decisions. Always.

You don't get to outlier results by being normal.

You do it by doing what others won't.

Breaking: Commonwealth Bank just sent shockwaves through the investor lending market.

From tomorrow, CBA will only allow new trust lending for active CBA customers, everyone else is cut off.

This move comes less than 24 hours after Australian Prudential Regulation Authority publicly warned that it is “closely monitoring any build-up of domestic vulnerabilities, particularly in the housing market.”

It was only two weeks ago Macquarie Group made a similar move, blocking all trust lending.

These changes are reflective of a very targeted lending regulator, making a surgical, targeted change...zeroing in on the riskiest pockets of lending.

So why is trust lending viewed as risky?

It's the way they’re used:

Here’s the issue in a nutshell:

→ Under current lending rules, a 3% assessment buffers apply to ANY mortgage debts.  This is designed to protect borrowers and the system, ensuring everyone can afford their mortgages in any rate environment.

 → When utilising trusts, property investors can get creative and find ways to ensure that any existing debts inside that trust often aren’t stressed tested at all.

 → When obtaining a loan in a new trust, the bank checks whether the borrower is meeting repayments today in any 'existing trusts', not whether they can survive a stress-tested environment.

 → Borrowers can thereby 'recycle' trusts here, opening a new one when they are tapped out, and find ways to circumnavigate the 3% mortgage stress test on their existing trust.

 →  The risk here is investor borrowers are not adequately 'stress tested' and can push themselves too far. 

In a market where 40% of all loans are going to investors, and a material chunk of those are running through company/trust structures, you can see why Commonwealth Bank & Macquarie Group moved quickly.

And here’s how it impacts you:

Relying on lending strategies that use trusts to expand your borrowing power?

For the many  investors who rely on trust structures to build multi-property portfolios…your lending playbook just changed overnight.

You’ve got to be a little crazy to change the game.

Reasonable won't cut it.

This year’s been about building. 

Next year? 

It’s about turning these foundations into results.

My note to my partners this week was simple:

“Be so unreasonable that everyone thinks we're nuts”

So here's what’s coming from me in 2026:
▶️ 250 long-form YouTube videos
▶️ 100 Podcast episodes with Curtis Stewart & Adi Chanda
💥 300+ LinkedIn posts

All while growing Flint to hit some crazy targets.

Because the world doesn’t reward reasonable.

It rewards those crazy enough to think they can do it… and then actually take unreasonable actions to achieve it.

I finally snapped… in the most dad way possible.

When you put yourself out there, you cop all kinds of nonsense.

99.9% of the time I let it go.

But this one? 

Just straight-up unacceptable racism.

So I went full dad-discipline mode: firm voice, eye contact, podcast mic on.

No dessert. No bedtime story. Straight to reflection time.

These 6 content rules will generate me $10mill+ in revenue in 2026.

Copy them 👇

1. I don’t bother selling.
(So you never feel like you’re being sold to)

2. I don’t care what you think.
(Like me. Don’t like me. I’ll still like me… and that’s all that matters here)

3. I absolutely LOVE what I’m talking about.
(I’ve literally turned my podcast into time with my two best mates)

4. I never script.
(Yawn...people want realness, not GPT scripts read out)

5. I always play.
(Because i like to have fun)

6. I study the best
(Every-night i'm watching others who do it well, trying to get a tiny bit better)

Because the second you start creating from love instead of fear, everything changes.

That’s when people actually start listening.

Here are 5 things I love every week (and 1 thing that drives me nuts).

1. Coming in on Mondays and seeing my teams faces.  Instant smile. 

2. My Tuesday night chats with Adi Chanda, we live in different cities and I get an hour with a friend

3. 7-8pm dancing daily with my girls. My rhythm is questionable, but my confidence is elite. 💃

4. The podcast room.  It’s supposed to be serious, but really I’m just hanging with my mates. 

5. Friday nights with my wife.  We’re both building our careers and juggling two little kids. Fridays are for us, we slow down and just talk. 

Oh…

And one thing I hate…cutting my one gray hair that keeps coming back everytime i shoot content 

(If anyone’s cracked the code, please help 🙃)

No alternative text description for this image

Last fortnight, 6 out of my 7 posts hit 10,000+ impressions.

And the secret wasn’t a growth hack or algorithm trick. 

I stopped using GPT…

And I just wrote like me.

(Turns out writing like a weirdo is the secret to breaking the content game)

Great leaders don’t rely on one style. 

They switch gears fast.

When I first stepped into this gig, the situation called for unity…bringing everyone together and creating one direction.

So i went about sharing stories, presenting visions with the aim of drawing connection with us, and where we are heading. 

Some days, it calls for strength: setting standards, drawing lines, making it clear what’s acceptable and what isn’t.

And sometimes, it’s none of that.

It’s simply being present. Listening. Showing I care.

Leadership isn’t about being one fixed version of yourself.

It’s knowing which version the moment needs.

My take out?

Intelligence isn’t about knowing things…

(ChatGPT has your back here)

It’s about being adaptable…reading the room and adjusting quickly.

My favourite part of the job?

Playing coach

Getting into the weeds of what it takes to thrive as a broker, sharing everything I know and trying to level others up.

Lately I’ve been flying city to city, working with our team, getting them uncomfortbale in front of the cam.

The lessons:
- tell stories that make people feel
- share who you are, not what you know 
- just do it. Embrace discomfort…confidence will come 

Oddly enough…being ‘cringe’ for years and years is the lesson I’m sharing.

Embrace the cringe…the sound of your own voice…the weirdness of putting yourself out there

(Or in my case, the annoying gray hair that refuses to go away!)

Eventually you go from being the person being laughed at…to the person teaching others how to do it.

Execution > Planning. 99% of the time.

Most of us build mental barriers around the things we want to do.

“I’m too busy.”
“It’s not for me.”
“I’ll start tomorrow.”

What you’re really saying is: “I don’t want to get uncomfortable.”

Last year, I’d spend days preparing, thinking, planning… just to film one YouTube video.

And I still flopped. Over and over.

Embarrassing, low ROI, zero impact.

Now?

I can film three videos in 90 minutes. Minimal prep. 10x the views. And it fills our sales team’s diary for a week.

Thinking about doing what I wanted achieved nothing.

(Just like reading 12 self-help books and taking no action..)

The lesson?

Stop thinking.

Start doing.

APRA acted like the schoolyard bully today.

Shout, scream.  Try to scare.

But actually…

Do nothing.

Today’s announcement is just that.

From Feb 2026, banks can only issue 20% of all new loans where debt is >6× the applicant’s income.

Well…

In the middle of the biggest investment lending boom in nearly a decade

We are at 10%

HALF the cap. 🧢

BREAKING: APRA’s New Lending Cap Targets Property Investors

The power of brand saved us $50,000 last month

And it happened in the most unexpected way, through our podcast.

Adi Chanda and I did a shout out for staff on our podcast

Within 72 hours, 30+ emails/DMs landed in our inbox.

The quality was insane.

No cookie cutter CVs and boring cover letters.

They knew who we were.

They were well researched, knew property like wizards, and had watched us for months

One guy we hired sent us the best loom I’d ever seen. 

Some were willing to change their whole lives and chase their passion in property

Others just wanted to be around us 

💡 Our marketing efforts isn’t just for clients.  It’s our best recruiter too.

Am I taking enough risk for my business to survive in 5 years time?

This question circled my brain this evening after attending an AI event hosted by Lendi Group, where they shared their journey building with AI.  

Here’s what I learned:

- the pace of change is rapid, but we are still very early on in our change journey 

- take more risk, experiment, and fail very quickly

- ask yourself when building with AI: what can you do today with AI that wasn’t possible yesterday. 

- don’t use AI for AIs sake, there’s plenty of automation and technology pre AI that remains and will remain incredibly valuable.

There’s not many events I leave with more questions than answers…and I think that was exactly the point.

To challenge our beliefs, to inspire new ways of thinking.

Thank you David Hyman for the invitation.

9 months ago, I met a broker who completely changed how I think about leadership

Today, that same broker launching his own office

When I first met Ben Robinson, he was already one of the sharpest operators I’d met.

But what he’s achieved since is next level:
💥 Nearly tripled his monthly lodgements 
📈 Built one of LinkedIn’s most visible mortgage brands
👥 Assembled a high-performing team of brokers, BDMs, analysts, and processors

And he’s done it all with passion, curiosity, and relentless drive.

Now, he’s taking the next big leap, leading FlintNewcastle.

It’s a huge milestone, and one he’s absolutely earned.

Building Australia’s First $10B+ Brokerage! We’re Looking for Great People to Join the Flint Journey. Be Part of Something Bigger 🚀

Big news today from Newcastle!! 

After more than 12 months of planning, we have officially opened the doors to our brand-new Flint office right in the heart of Newcastle. 

Newcastle is Australia's largest city outside the major capitals and has always been a place full of energy, growth and genuine people who get things done. Now, we get to be part of that - helping locals, business owners, and investors make smarter moves with the right finance behind them.

Our new space is led by Ben Robinson - one of the country’s best brokers and a close friend of mine. He’s joined by an incredible team including Matt Hollinworth, Anthony Toth, Lauren Franzmann and Bree Atkinson - with two more experienced brokers confirmed to join early next year. We have also built out a dedicated internal team of 15 specialists across complex credit, loan processing, post-settlement and compliance to support the new office. 

If you're a hungry broker based in Newcastle or the surrounding area, we are looking to expand to more than 10 brokers in the next few months, with an annual office settlement target of $1B+ by next year.
