Knowledge. Mortgages are not created equal. Rate is not the only important factor.
Understanding. I am a homeowner, too. I have renewed and refinanced, bought and sold properties. I understand this is the biggest investment of your life. and for military families I also live the same lifestyle as a spouse myself.
Environment. My office building is LEED certified, designed and built using strategies aimed at achieving high performance in human and environmental health, including sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. When possible, I work from my home office and offer video and phone conference appointments reducing travel and minimizing traffic.
Paperless. As an ongoing effort to protect the environment, my business is run almost entirely paperless.
Military. As a spouse of a Canadian Armed Forces member, I have a deep understanding of mortgage needs for military families because I live the lifestyle myself.
