The highest producing Mortgage Broker, according to CMP’s top-75 list is independent no longer, with Jim Tourloukis heading back to his former brokerage, VERICO.

“When I originally joined VERICO 5 years ago, it was to access top volume bonus levels with lenders.  As my business grew, I was able to reach top volume bonuses and so I made the decision to become an independent,” he said. “This time, it’s about taking my business to the next level; aligning myself with the best of the best at VERICO and getting access to the best tools in the industry will help me grow my business far beyond what could be accomplished on my own.” 

For three years straight, Tourloukis has surpassed $200 million in volume as an independent and he hopes to build his business higher under the VERICO banner. And the recent career move has already worked in his favour.

"The move back to VERICO has already paid dividends in spades; within 24 hours of turning on VERICO Dynamics and its automatic marketing emails, I received 5 real deals and another 76 inquiries from leads, Tourloukis said. “Those results speak for themselves.”

For its part, VERICO is excited to add another experienced and high-producing broker to its growing stable of mortgage professionals.

“We are delighted to welcome back Jim Tourloukis and his team at VERICO Advent Mortgage Services,” Colin Dreyer, president of VERICO Canada said. “Jim’s business values are very much in alignment with VERICO’s core values of professionalism, excellence, integrity and high ethical standards and we look forward to supporting his next level of success.”
