Our Story
Zamran Zaharan is the founder & senior mortgage advisor at FCMB. Throughout his professional career, Zamran has been in all roles imaginable in the real estate and mortgage sectors. For more than a decade he worked as a mortgage advisor, during this tenor he realized that most customer interests are not perfectly met by conventional brokerages and financial institutions in the UAE. A lot of mortgage seekers are overwhelmed by the task of buying property and simply settle for sub-optimal offers. Furthermore, it was also evident to him that a lot of customers get rejected due to the lack of knowledge in the documentation process of obtaining a mortgage. Zamran eyed a business opportunity to fill the market gap that existed. He stepped out on his own with the idea of creating the most customer-centric mortgage advisory that clients could trust completely to get the job done.
He initially won the hearts of his colleagues with his new business venture, and on the back of his extended industry network he establish First Choice Mortgage Broker.
