EXERCISE 1
Scenario

A potential first home buyer phones and asks you to explain the various loan options available to them and the benefits and disadvantages of each one. They make mention of "no-frills loans", professional packages, lines of credit and honeymoon rates, so you must cover these 4 in your answer as a minimum.

Task

Write a "script" to be used in response to this enquiry that clearly explains the various loan options available and the benefits and disadvantages of each one.

- You do not need to improvise further comments from your first home buyer
- You should incorporate at least one selling message into the script
- Keep your script to 450 words maximum.

We encourage you to type your script, however you may handwrite on the back of this sheet if you do not have access to a computer/typewriter.

NOTE: Assume for the purpose of this assessment task that you will focus on answering the specific question, rather than following a prospect sheet or checklist. You do not need to include any conversation from the customer, just your own.
