Daniel LarucciaGUEST
So ANZ Bank, I could pay a percentage and they would fund the deposit for me on the contract and I'd actually get that.

Say I paid $500 for a $30,000 deposit for a $300,000 property, I'd actually get that $500 back.

Stephen MossGUEST
Was that Royal Sun Alliance days as well? Because I worked in sequence with Royal Sun Alliance.
