Broker vs Bank
Thinking of calling your bank for your Mortgage Needs?
You would be further ahead to take your hard earned money, toss it in a fire pit and cook hot dogs over it.
"Banks" NEVER offer their best rates up front to you
They make you do the work to find a better rate and then expect your business in return. To add to that, that also EXPECT your investments, credit cards and savings too....really!!!????
By your "Bank" not offering you their best product and rate up front, in our mind this is a form of stealing. Bet you never thought of your "Bank" this way....did you?
It's time to look more into our "new alternative to lending" and educate yourself on why dealing with a Mortgage Broker will save you THOUSANDS in payments and interest.
What is a Mortgage Broker?
A Mortgage Broker is an individually licensed professional. Our job is represent you, as a client, and search the Canadian Mortgage Market for the best product and rate that you qualify for.

What does it Cost to Use a Mortgage Broker?
In 99% of our deals, our services are FREE!
As mentioned above we work for you and not the "Bank". The lenders we deal with value the Broker network and the business we bring to them. The amount of volume a Broker writes can't even be compared to your day to day "Banker" and this is why our lenders pay us a referral fee. As well they offer us discounted rates, so really you get the best of both worlds - the LOWEST RATE in Canada along with a FREE service.

When you call Steel...you get Steel....when you call Glen...you get Glen. If one of us are away from the office, our phones are forwarded so you will always get to speak to a live person. Sometimes we miss the odd call, but this will happen when your signing Mortgage documents with clients. Our guarantee is to return your call within 2 hours of you leaving your message.
It's time to STOP letting your "Bank" steal your money and EXPECT your business.
