How it works

Three steps to a better mortgage.

One licensed mortgage advisor, with you from your first question to closing day.

01
Ask or apply

Start your pre-approval in about 5 minutes, or ask Maya, our AI assistant, a quick question first. No credit pull to begin.

02
We shop 100+ lenders

Your licensed advisor finds your best fit while Harvey pre-checks your file — so issues get caught early, not on closing day.

03
You close — better off

Fund at a sharper rate than the bank offered. That is the Rate Beat Guarantee: show us a written Big-6 offer and we beat it, or we pay you $500 — keep it, or send it to your favourite charity.

Broker vs. bank

Why work with a mortgage broker instead of a big bank?

A mortgage broker works for you — not for one financial institution.

Access to 100+ lenders — not one bank’s rate sheet

The big banks can only sell you their own products. As an independent mortgage brokerage we compare rates across banks, credit unions, monoline, and alternative lenders — including ones you can’t walk into — so you see the whole market, not a single financial institution’s answer.

We negotiate to save you money

A sharper rate can save you thousands over your term. Your licensed mortgage broker shops competing offers and negotiates so more of your mortgage payment pays down principal instead of interest.

Independent advice for your situation

First-time buyer, renewal, self-employed, or bruised credit — a mortgage specialist gives you unbiased mortgage advice tailored to your financial situation, and explains fixed vs variable rate in plain language.

Licensed, regulated, and on your side

We’re a licensed mortgage brokerage (FSRA #13737). On most residential deals the lender pays the broker — so working with a mortgage broker usually costs you nothing.

Real promotions and real savings, with no fine-print surprises.

Real client files

Real files we’ve solved.

Ontario files our advisors have handled. Names and identifying details are changed to protect client privacy. See what clients say in our Google reviews.

Client file · Ottawa, ON

A homeowner's renewal letter came in well above the market for the same term. We benchmarked the offer against our lender panel within two business days and switched the mortgage to a lender with a lower rate on the same product and term.

Outcome: Roughly 1 percentage point below the bank's offer
Client file · Brampton, ON

A couple buying their first home had been declined by two banks. We walked them through the FHSA, RRSP Home Buyers' Plan and first-time-buyer rebates in Punjabi, then placed the file with a lender whose policy fit their income.

Outcome: Insured purchase with 5% down
Client file · Brampton, ON

Two incorporated business owners were declined by banks that looked only at their personal tax returns. We documented salary, dividends and the corporation's retained earnings and placed the file with a lender whose policy recognises that structure.

Outcome: Qualified for materially more than the bank's figure
Client file · Toronto, ON

A work-permit holder with 18 months in Canada and no Canadian credit history had been declined twice. We used a bank newcomer program that accepts international credit evidence and a larger down payment.

Outcome: Approved through a newcomer program with 15% down
Client file · Toronto, ON

A borrower two years out of a consumer proposal assumed no lender would consider them. We placed the purchase with a B-lender and mapped the move back to A-lender pricing from day one.

Outcome: Closed with a B-lender; exit plan agreed up front
FAQ

Mortgage questions, answered.

The things Canadians ask us most — or ask Maya anything, any hour.

What does a mortgage broker do, and does it cost me anything?+

A mortgage broker compares mortgages across 100+ lenders on your behalf, negotiates the rate, and manages the paperwork to closing. On most residential deals the lender pays the broker, so our advice is free to you. See how brokers work.

Is a mortgage broker better than going to my bank?+

Your bank can only offer its own rates. A broker shops the whole market — banks, credit unions, and alternative lenders — so you compare many offers instead of one. That competition is what tends to save you money over the term.

I’m a first-time home buyer — where do I start?+

Start with a pre-approval so you know your budget and can hold a rate. We walk you through the down payment, closing costs, and first-time-buyer programs. See our first-time buyer page or run the affordability calculator.

My mortgage is up for renewal — should I just sign the bank’s letter?+

Rarely. The first renewal offer is usually not the lender’s best rate. We benchmark it against 100+ lenders, and a switch or rate-match often saves hundreds a month. See mortgage renewal.

Fixed or variable rate — which should I choose?+

It depends on your risk tolerance and the gap between rates. A fixed rate gives certainty; a variable mortgage can cost less if interest rates fall. A mortgage specialist will model both on your numbers — compare live mortgage rates first.

Do you serve Toronto and the GTA?+

Yes. We’re an Ontario-licensed brokerage headquartered in Vaughan, serving Toronto and the entire GTA in 15+ languages. Find your city: Toronto, Mississauga, or Brampton.
