Why Use a Kanata Mortgage Broker?
Many homebuyers simply walk into their local bank branch out of habit. While banks offer their own specific products, a Mortgage Broker works for you, not the bank. We have access to over 50 lenders, including major banks, credit unions, and monoline lenders who often offer lower rates than the big banks.
In a competitive market like Kanata, having a broker on your side provides distinct advantages:
- Volume Discounts: We send millions in mortgages to lenders, securing rate discounts we pass on to you.
- Unbiased Advice: We don't push a specific product; we find the one that fits your financial goals.
- Specialized Knowledge: We understand self-employed income, government pensions, and tech sector compensation packages.
- One Credit Check: We shop the market with a single credit pull, protecting your credit score.
- A 12-month interest-only term to give you breathing room.
From pre-approval to closing day, we handle the paperwork and negotiations so you can focus on moving into your Kanata home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from Kanata homebuyers.
Do you charge a fee for your services?
For standard residential mortgages with "A" lenders (banks, credit unions), our service is 100% free for you. We are paid a commission by the lender you choose. Fees only apply for complex private or commercial lending.
Can you help if I am self-employed?
Absolutely. We have specific "Business for Self" programs that allow us to use your gross business revenue or bank statements to qualify you, rather than just your personal tax return.
Do you deal with New Construction?
Yes. Kanata has many new developments. We can secure rate holds for up to 18-24 months for new builds, protecting you from rate hikes while your home is being built.
Is a pre-approval necessary?
In Kanata's market, yes. Realtors will take your offer more seriously if you have a pre-approval in hand. It also locks in your rate for 120 days.
Can I refinance to buy a cottage or rental?
Yes! Many Kanata homeowners have seen their property value double in the last decade. We can help you access that equity to buy an investment property or a cottage.
What if I have bad credit?
We work with "B" lenders and private lenders who can help you get a mortgage even with bruised credit or a consumer proposal, provided you have a sufficient down payment/equity.
Are you better than my bank?
Your bank can only offer you their own products. We can offer you products from your bank AND 50 other competitors. This forces them to compete for your business, ensuring you get the best deal.
