Why Contact Me for Your Next Mortgage?

I Have Great Mortgage Rates from More Lenders - Your bank or credit union has just their own mortgage products and mortgage rates to offer.  I can offer the mortgage products of over 40 mortgage lenders (see Mortgage Lender List) and am not tied to any one lender.  Mortgage rates and products vary, and some lenders are better at financing different situations than others.  I can help you sort out your mortgage options.  See Mortgage Options  and Mortgage Basics for descriptions of mortgage products.

I am Paid by the Lender - Except where private financing is required, the services of a residential sub-mortgage broker are paid by the lender, and not by the mortgage client. My compensation is based on the size of the mortgage - not the mortgage rate, and my job as your mortgage advisor is to find my clients the best mortgage at the best mortgage rate.

Professional Training and Experience - In addition to the AMP (Accredited Mortgage Professional) designation, I hold a Certified General Accountant (CGA), and Chartered Financial Analyst Designation (CFA) and have worked in the financial industry for over twenty years.  My combination of training and experience is different than most sub-mortgage brokers, enabling me to assist those more complex financial situations.  Additionally, I am a licensed member of the Mortgage Brokers Association of BC. Note that licensing is not required of mortgage advisors in most traditional financial institutions.

I know your community:  As a resident of White Rock BC, with my office in South Surrey, I understand the unique financing challenges of mortgage financing in Greater Vancouver.  Having grown up in Victoria, Vancouver Island mortgage financing is another area of specialization. Wherever you are in BC (and beyond) I have the expertise to assist you with your mortgage financing.

Mortgage Brokers are a Growing Trend - In Canada, 1 in 4 mortgage borrowers are using a a sub-mortgage broker with a mortgage broker firm, and almost 1 in 3 here in BC. Sub-mortgage brokers are not just for clients with bumpy credit histories as they once were. My clients include average families, professionals, first time buyers, self employed workers, vacation home buyers, rental home buyers, etc - anyone wanting professional advice and access to more than one lender can benefit from my services.

Our Company, is Local and "Independent."  I work for Select Mortgage, and unlike many other mortgage companies, Select Mortgage is Canadian - headquartered in Victoria BC.  We are not owned by a large financial institution.  Select Mortgage offers the balance of being small enough that each customer is very important, and yet big enough that we can negotiate low mortgage rates because of our volume.  We can do business with larger lenders that will not deal with small mortgage broker firms.

Whether you're a first time home buyer, renewing an existing mortgage, refinancing, buying a rental property, or looking for ways to pay off your mortgage early, I will be able to help answer your mortgage questions.  I specialize in all types of mortgage financing, and would be pleased to help you - no matter how simple or complex your mortgage needs.  I have had success assisting clients who are seeking:
