    • Winner (several categories) – Canadian Mortgage Awards
    • Winner – Top Workplace

estate boards to present (eg. Oakville, Durham, Toronto Regional Real Estate Boards)
✔ Our management team are leaders at regulators and industry associations (FSRA, CMBA & MPC)
✔ As a top brokerage, we have access to better rates and commissions than that of other brokerages
✔ It also means we have access to lenders that others may not – and this is becoming a critical competitive advantage, given the regulations (eg. Credit unions, luxury property lenders, private, commercial, etc.)
✔ We have excellent Google and Facebook reviews, which further helps you build your conversion
✔ Our reputation means you have immediate credibility with your clients

2. GROWTH – We are focused on helping you grow YOUR business

✔ We have a Underwriting & Fulfillment Hub to process your files, so that you can market and sell – which is a much better use of your time

✔ You can leverage our business planning process, sales training, marketing and social media support, etc

3. TRAINING! We have a proprietary, FIVE-pronged approach to TRAINING

✔ A customized welcome package with LOTS of information to read and videos to watch – this will help you to gain more and more knowledge, including completing a mortgage application, mortgage documents required, rates, sales training and more
✔ Weekly lender meetings (recorded via Zoom) to learn about new mortgage products
✔ Weekly sales training / business planning /marketing with our co-founder
✔ Three weekly underwriting meetings via Zoom to train you on this important aspect of brokering
✔ Most important – we help you with each and every file. Which lender is best for my client? Which documents do we need? How much is the compensation? We act like personal trainers and work with you closely for every client that you have. This also includes business planning to help you succeed.

4. We don’t nickel-and-dime our agents with fees

✔ No marketing fees or franchise fees
✔ No monthly fees or desk fees – see details below
✔ No fees to leave and we don’t force you to sign a long-term contract
✔ No ongoing repetitive costs (Just pay FSRA and E&O insurance)

5. ACTIVE broker owners – Our brokers and team leaders are not “semi-retired”

✔ We’ve heard from our new recruits that they could never get a hold of their broker, because their broker was always golfing or on vacation, etc.
✔ Speed matters – and we’re available when you need us – evenings and weekends included
✔ Don’t lose your clients or referral sources when they become impatient with a slow response
✔ The two founders, Shawn & Elan, are high school friends – speaking to our culture of loyalty and long-term relationships

6. Because of our volume, we have dedicated lender underwriters, top-tier status and access to MANY lenders

✔ Often, we receive a purchase agreement from the Realtor and because the file was already
pre-approved and underwritten by us, we simply enter the purchase details and submit – and
frequently, we receive a commitment by the next MORNING! This really “WOWs” Realtors and clients, helping you to get more referrals
✔ We have lenders that many others do not have – helping you to get more approvals and win clients
✔ We have dedicated lender underwriters directly assigned to Mortgage Outlet – for faster service

7. We are licensed in BC, AB, NB, NS, ON, QC and can lend across Canada – plus MANY lenders

✔ Our range of lenders can help you generate more business – and because of our volume, the
compensation and service from our lenders is top tier

8. We don’t “hide” commissions from you

✔ Lenders provide a finder’s fee and “volume rebate” (VR), PLUS other “bonus commissions”
✔ Some brokerages don’t tell their agents about these VR’s
✔ We DO give these to you as part of your commission split!

9. We can help to fund any file

✔ Residential, commercial, land, construction, damaged credit, new-to-Canada, private lending, second and third mortgages, borrowed down payments, luxury properties, fast closings & more!
✔ This will help you earn more money!

✔ Training is on Zoom and is also recorded
✔ Our co-founders started as part-timers and WORKED HARD to go to full-time

✔ Automatically send your clients a happy birthday message, and a mortgage anniversary message so that they always remember you
✔ CRM reminds you of upcoming mortgage renewals
✔ CRM includes monthly newsletters to help you stay connected with your clients
✔ CRM updates Realtors and lawyers to “wow” them and grow them into referral partners (eg. updating the Realtor that the appraisal was booked, etc)

14. We want to grow with you

✔ Our goal is to help you become empowered to learn, grow, help people, have fun & make money
