Completed transaction in November 2020
This was my wife and I's first time purchasing a home and we wanted a mortgage lender we felt we could trust, were comfortable asking questions to and had our best interest at heart throughout the entire process. Lorne was absolutely that person. He walked us beautifully through the entire process, letting us know our options, explaining all of the numbers and nuances and helping us get a fabulous interest rate. He went above and beyond and we felt his care throughout the entire process.
