Testimonials from Happy Clients

We recently used Dom to refinance our house, and he was AWESOME!!!! Dom was very professional and very responsive throughout the process, always keeping us updated on the current status of our application. After two banks turned us down, due to a past (discharged) Consumer Proposal, Dom was able to negotiate very favourable terms with another lender. To our lawyer’s (and our) surprise, Dom also did not charge us a broker fee. We will definitely be recommending Dom to others in the future.

Christina was able to clearly explain to me all options available to me, as well as educate me on the finer details of lending and acquisition. She was detailed, patient and thorough, while maintaining a very comfortable balance of approachability and professionalism. Her follow-up was prompt, her service excellent, and attitude was positive and confident. Not only was her service incredible, but I was able to come away from the experience more informed, and with clearer direction. I strongly recommend Christina for thorough, complete, personal and friendly mortgage service. Thanks Christina!

We have the pleasure of working with Moe Baalbaki and we must say that his level of service is exceptional. From the moment we refer our clients to Moe, his response time is impressive. He promptly reaches out to our clients and schedules a meeting to discuss their mortgage needs. He provides regular updates, ensuring that everyone involved is aware of the status and any necessary steps to move forward. Moe provides excellent support for our open houses by preparing informative and visually appealing feature sheets. This attention to detail helps attract potential buyers and showcases the property in the best possible light. Moe is always accessible, even during evenings, weekends, and holidays.

Being a recent immigrant and totally ignorant about mortgage rules, it appeared impossible for me to get a decent mortgage approval from bank to buy our first home !! Here comes the saviour- Christina Steplock. Yes, we bought our first home. Christina was very professional, understanding and friendly all through the process. She was also honest about what we can and what we can’t! We are glad that we consulted her well in advance so we could plan in peace towards buying a home in Canada!! Thank you Christina
