My approach is based on listening, transparency, and solutions tailored to your unique needs. I am committed to offering you competitive rates and clear advice, taking into account your financial situation and long-term goals
My Experience
Since the beginning of my career in 1996, I have helped many clients achieve their financial goals. I started as a financial advisor at a major banking institution, where I gained a solid understanding of loan products and client expectations. I then served as Sales Director, which allowed me to manage teams and handle more complex financing projects.
Today, as an independent broker, I have the freedom to work with various lenders to offer you the best financing options available on the market. Whether it’s for purchasing a new property, refinancing an existing loan, or consolidating debts, I ensure that each solution is perfectly tailored to your needs.
My Services in Detail
Property Purchase: Mortgage Loan for First-Time Homebuyer
Buying a home is a major step. I assist you in obtaining a mortgage loan for first-time homebuyers, taking various factors into account:
- Prequalification: I help you obtain quick prequalification to determine your budget and better focus your property search.
- Comparison of loan options: I don’t just compare mortgage rates. I also examine loan terms, such as refinancing conditions, prepayment options, and early closure penalties, to provide you with a comprehensive overview.
- Refinancing options: I identify loans that allow for easy refinancing, giving you the flexibility to adjust your mortgage as your needs evolve.
- Early closure penalties: I inform you of potential penalties if you decide to close your mortgage before its term. This helps you anticipate costs in case of resale, transfer, or future refinancing.
Real example: I recently helped a first-time homebuyer choose a loan with flexible prepayment options, allowing them to pay off part of their mortgage faster, without penalties.
Mortgage Renewal: Competitive Mortgage Rates
When your mortgage reaches its term, it’s the perfect time to compare mortgage renewal rates. Many homeowners accept their bank’s offer without exploring other options.
- Get a competitive rate: Rates fluctuate constantly, and a mortgage renewal can offer you significant savings.
- Lower monthly payments: By securing a lower rate, you can reduce your monthly payments or shorten the duration of your loan.
- Refinancing option: Mortgage renewal is also an opportunity to consider refinancing to access your home’s equity.
Real example: I helped a client with a $300,000 loan secure a rate 0.75% lower than the one offered by their bank, saving over $20,000.
Mortgage Refinancing and Home Equity
Mortgage refinancing allows you to leverage your home’s equity to fund projects, pay off debts, or invest.
- Refinancing to reduce debt: Convert high-interest debt into a lower-interest mortgage loan.
- Fund projects: Use your equity for renovations, education, or other projects.
- Invest in real estate: Equity can be used as leverage for real estate investments.
Real example: A couple refinanced their home to obtain $75,000 for energy-efficient renovations, while benefiting from a lower rate, which reduced their total financing cost.
Debt Consolidation and Restructuring
Debt consolidation is an effective solution to combine high-interest debts into a single, lower-interest mortgage loan.
- Single payment: Simplify your finances with one monthly payment.
- Lower interest rate: Mortgage rates are lower than credit card rates, reducing the total cost of your debts.
- Improve your credit: Better debt management can enhance your credit score.
Real example: A client with $40,000 in high-interest debt consolidated it into a 4% mortgage, reducing their monthly payments by $600 and improving their financial stability.
Multi-Unit & Commercial Real Estate Investment in Montreal and Quebec
As a mortgage broker in Montreal, I offer financing solutions for real estate investment.
- Loan for rental properties: I help investors obtain mortgage loans for income-generating properties.
- Cash flow analysis: I assist you in evaluating the profitability of projects.
- Optimizing returns: Structuring loans to maximize profits and minimize risks.
Real example: I assisted an investor in purchasing a 10-unit building by structuring a loan with a 30-year amortization and a competitive rate.
