At 25, Mohammed Zahr was knee-deep in construction dust, chasing a paycheck but craving purpose. Weekends were spent studying property, finance, and the path to something more. One interviewer told him, “Broking is for you.”

It took another year — and a few detours — before he made the leap. By April 2022, Mohammed started as a broker support officer, and just two weeks in, he knew he’d found his thing. Fast-forward to today and he’s the face behind Zahr Financial, helping first-home buyers, investors, and families navigate the lending maze with calm clarity.

In this episode, we talk about the courage to pivot, how communication became his biggest superpower, and why the future of broking is equal parts digital efficiency and human connection.

From construction grit to mortgage wit — this is the story of someone who started before he was “ready” and built a business grounded in trust, empathy, and everyday people achieving extraordinary goals.
