Our mission

Make Canada’s best mortgage advice universal.

Mortgage decisions are five-hundred-thousand-dollar decisions. They shouldn’t be made with whatever rate your bank’s app happens to show, in the language your bank happens to speak, during the hours your bank happens to be open.

We built Mortgage Squad Advisors to flip that. AI for instant answers. Humans for binding advice. Fifty-plus lenders for real choice. Twelve-plus languages for everyone. Always on. Always independent. Always in your corner.

Our principles

The six rules we won’t break.

The math is the math.

If a refinance doesn't save you money net of penalty, we say so. Every recommendation we make survives an independent re-calculation by Maya before it leaves a human's desk.

The agent owns the file.

Same human, beginning to close. No call-centre rotation. No "someone will get back to you." Your advisor's name is on the file, and they pick up when you call.

The portal tells the truth.

Real-time application status. Every document, every condition, every lender response — visible in your client portal. No "your file is being reviewed" black holes.

AI is the co-pilot, never the pilot.

Maya answers any question 24/7, runs every calculation, drafts every comparison. But a licensed human signs off on every recommendation. Always.

Speak your language.

English, French, Punjabi, Urdu, Mandarin, Cantonese, Arabic, Tagalog, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, and more. If we can't pair you with a fluent advisor, Maya translates live.

Your data stays in Canada.

Encrypted at rest with AES-256. Encrypted in transit with TLS 1.3. Stored exclusively on Canadian infrastructure. PIPEDA + Quebec Law 25 compliant. Never sold.

FAQ

Common questions about Mortgage Squad Advisors.

Don’t see yours? Ask Maya.

Is Mortgage Squad Advisors FSRA-licensed?
Yes. Mortgage Squad Advisors holds FSRA Brokerage License #13737. Every agent on our team is individually licensed. We hold or operate under reciprocal arrangements with sister brokerages across BC, AB, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Atlantic Canada, and Quebec.
How is Mortgage Squad Advisors different from a bank?
A bank shows you their products. We shop your file across 50+ lenders — A-lenders, monolines, B-lenders, credit unions, and private — to find the best fit. Our advisors are paid by the lender on funding, not by you, and we have a Rate Beat Guarantee: beat any eligible Big-6 written offer on a comparable product, or we pay you $500 (subject to program terms).
What does Maya actually do?
Maya is Canada's first AI mortgage advisor. She answers questions instantly in 50+ languages, runs live affordability and payment math, explains complex products in plain English, and pre-vets your file before it goes to a human. She doesn't make binding decisions — every recommendation is reviewed by a licensed advisor before it goes to a lender.
Where is Mortgage Squad Advisors headquartered?
Vaughan, Ontario — at 310-3100 Steeles Avenue West, L4K 3R1. We serve clients across Canada with multilingual advisors and a fully digital portal so you never need to come into the office unless you want to.
What does "data stays in Canada" mean?
Every byte of client data we hold — applications, documents, messages, credit signals — lives on infrastructure physically located in Canada. We never replicate to US data centres, even for backup. We are PIPEDA + Quebec Law 25 compliant and follow FSRA's data residency guidance.
Do I pay a fee to use a mortgage broker?
No. On standard residential mortgages, the lender pays the broker on funding. You see no broker fee on your closing statement. Specialty files (private mortgages, commercial, distressed situations) may carry a disclosed broker fee that you'd see upfront, in writing, before you agree to anything.

Now you know us. Let’s talk.
