After a bad experience with another lender halfway through the mortgage... process, we were recommended Canadian Mortgage Professionals by our realtor. Right from the beginning, we noticed how professional and responsive the company and our associate Ken was. After speaking on the phone and meeting in person, we felt completely confident with their service. We received excellent and detailed explanations of every document involved in the process. They made the seemingly difficult and unknown mortgage process for a first time buyer very easy to understand. Would definitely recommend to anyone, and would definitely come back again in the future!read more

We worked with Bob and Jackie to finance our first home, and they were the... first ones we went back to when it was time to renew. Bob was very knowledgeable, informative, open and friendly, and Jackie picked up where he left off and took us the rest of the way through the process as painlessly as possible. When I asked Jackie to help us with the renewal process a few years later, she went well above and way beyond what I was expecting - she found us a great rate quickly, walked me through the process very thoroughly, and was always available to answer any questions I had. I will continue to recommend Canadian Mortgage Professionals, especially Jackie, to anyone looking for help with mortage financing or renewal. Thanks again, Jackie and Bob!-Aaronread more

I honestly do not think I would have been able to get a mortgage without... Jackie and Bob. I know for certain that the interest rate I received could not have been matched by a conventional bank. The experience was also completely amazing. Jackie really worked hard getting everything done for me, and I loved chatting with everyone at the office when I went in. I will 100 percent be using Canadian Mortgage Pros when it comes time for renewal.read more

I had the privileged of working with Jackie and Bob for my mortgage. It... was my first time purchasing a home and I did not know the process or what to expect. They both made it extremely easy and it was a very comfortable process. Jackie went above and beyond in explaining every detail to me and was extremely helpful. I was very happy with the process and would not change anything about it. When I met with Bob to finalize the paperwork he was very personable and again explained everything to me in detail. I really appreciate the extra mile they went to make sure I was aware of every step and what to expect. I would/will recommend them to any friend or family.read more

Thank you to Ken, for the incredibly professional and attentive conduct,... during the stressful process of obtaining a mortgage. I am from Vancouver Island in British Columbia, and had no complications communicating with Ken being in a different province. Ken consistently reviewed my application and always had me in mind while getting the top rate. Ken even set up my appointments with the assessments and notary. The day of signing, Ken was able to, and did get me a lower rate then what I had already approved. The first 30 seconds of contact was always very personable and comforting before confronting the details. I will absolutely deal with Ken from Canadian Mortgage Professionals for all my mortgage needs.read more

I could not be happier with my experience here!! Ken was great to work... with. His responses were always timely, and he is very professional, knowledgeable and dedicated. I would never use a different mortgage team, I'm convinced that this is the best group out there. Ken made the sale of my house and purchase of the next go VERY smoothly, and with way less stress. I have been recommending you guys already, and will continue to do so.read more

I have worked professionally with Bob and his team for 10 years and they... never disappoint, work their hardest to find the best mortgage solutions for my clients and their communication through the process is top notch.
We personally re-mortgaged years ago with Jackie, and more recently with Ken and enjoyed the same exceptional service each time, as did my own parents on their last 2 homes. I have said to others in the past, 'If Bob and his team can't acquire a mortgage for someone, no one can'. Thanks for all you do!!read more

I wish there was an option to give 6 stars to the Canadian Mortgage... Professionals! Ken and Bob are extremely helpful, friendly and (like the name says) professional. Buying a house can be incredibly daunting and they do an incredible job of holding your hand throughout the entire process. They clearly explain everything in the mortgage documents and respond quickly to questions . This was my second experience with them and I will never go to anyone else for a mortgage. After getting your mortgage with Ken and Bob, you too will want to shout their names from the rooftops and recommend them to every person you know. Thanks again Canadian Mortgage Professionals!read more

I had the pleasure of working with Colleen on my recent home purchase. As... a first time home buyer I was very intimidated by the whole home purchasing process. I'd been looking off and on for two or three years, which lead Colleen to have to do several pre approvals for me. This was done in a timely manner and never a fuss. I found her to be very knowledgeable and extremely personable. Those two qualities made me feel very comfortable with my decision to use her. I was able to focus on all the other aspects of the purchase knowing I was in good hands. Countless e-mails and phone calls were exchanged throughout the process, she was always quick to respond with good advice and answer any of my questions. Their website is also a great source of information, they even have a monthly news letter! I would absolutely recommend Canadian Mortgage Professionals to everyone and look forward to using their services for a lifetime!
