Our Team
With Family Mortgage Planners, you can be confident that you’re working with real people who care about serving you well.
Family Mortgage Planners isn’t just a name
Family is how we operate.
As a true family-run team, we believe your mortgage deserves clear communication, honest advice, and guidance that looks out for your long-term well-being.
Many of our clients become repeat clients because we take the time to understand their goals, keep them consistently updated, and recommend what’s truly best — even if that means advising them to stay with their bank.
We’ve helped thousands of Canadians achieve the dream of homeownership. We look forward to serving you, too!

“Family Mortgage Planners definitely delivered a 5 star experience. They went above and beyond, making this the easiest, most professional experience I had securing a mortgage. They were exceptionally friendly and very helpful in getting me the absolute best rate for my mortgage. I would, without hesitation, refer anyone I know to them for their services.

Why our Team Structure Matters
At Family Mortgage Planners, your mortgage is supported by our entire team, not just one person.
Many mortgage “teams” are simply individual brokers working under the same brand — each managing their own clients and files.

Because we work as a team, you get:
The result is a mortgage process that feels clearer, faster, and far less stressful — with a team that’s truly looking out for you.
Their approach is unbeatable.

“I’ve used Family Mortgage Planners several times now, and have recommended them to friends who have also utilized their services. They’re conscientious, friendly approach to what can be intimidating subjects is second to none, and what I appreciate most. Their ability to get great rates doesn’t hurt either. I will continue to emphatically recommend them, as well as use their services personally in the future.”
