debt-consolidation

Use your home equity to reduce credit card debt.

Many Canadians are taking advantage of refinancing some of the equity in their home to reduce their credit card debt. Why pay high interest rates on your bank credit card debt when you can add it to your mortgage and pay a much lower interest rate! One important part of a strategy is knowing "good debt" from "bad debt". A well-planned mortgage can help you turn those bad debts into good debts and get them out of the way.

1. Consolidate high interest rate credit cards to one lower rate.
2. Save money and increase cash flow.
3. Reduce stress knowing that your financial situation is now manageable.

If you'd like to have a conversation about refinancing your debt, give us a call today to review your options. It's time to beat the banks!

Theresa Jacinthe, London, Ont

As a Real Estate Broker in today's fast paced ever changing market I can't afford to rely on chance. I need to know that with respect to mortgage financing, if it can be done... it will be done. Mel brings over 30 years of experience to the table and understands this industry from the ground up, inside and out. Mel has the skill to get it done quickly, and the contacts to get you the best possible value every time. Sometimes it isn't what you know ... It's who you know. Do yourself a favour and get to know Mel.

It has been a true pleasure to have Mel as our mortgage agent. We trust him completely - he is great to work with.

Andy Fowler, Realtor Re-Max and 2x client personally.

We spoke to two Mortgage brokers before deciding who we were going to trust with such a big purchase. Mel was by far the most knowledgeable and understanding. We weren't sure if buying our first home was going to be possible and yet Mel made it happen.

Sean Young, London, Ont.

I've been a client of Mel's for 2x house purchases. My house renewal came along 5 years after I bought my house and they raised my lending rate. Mel took care of it by using his magic and found me a point less. Always clear, concise and helpful. More business to come from me in the future.

I have gone to Mel several times over the years for help finding a mortgage and he has come through every time. I am always amazed by his level of knowledge and dedication... A true professional. I never hesitate to recommend Mel to family and friends seeking a mortgage.

Rudy Michael, Toronto, Ont

Mel took care of anything. He found me a mortgage with a credit union at a great rate. I filled out my application online and he took care of the rest. I have recommended him to family and friends. He made the whole process easy and answered all my questions so I could make decisions about buying a home.

Debbie Richter, London, Ont

Mel is truly a genius with mortgages. I ran into some problems with another mortgage broker that wasn't honest as Mel and they dragged their feet. I was directed to Mel, who looked after me with the utmost professionalism and kept my best interests at heart. Not only was Mel able to find me a new mortgage, he did it within a matter of hours, with the lowest interest rate, minimum 5% down payment, and closed it in a matter of 5 days.... Just in time for my closing date on the home I agreed to purchase. I really lost faith in brokers until I was directed to Mel.

Lonnie Bernard, St Thomas, Ont

I met Mel in 2008 when I purchased my first home. I felt very comfortable talking with him. He was great at explaining the details concerning my new mortgage. 5 years later, I renewed my mortgage thru him again because I trust his capabilities to get me the best rate possible. Thank You, Mel!

Lily Bleyenberg, London, Ont

Brian Diehl, London, Ont

Mel has handled two purchases/sales for me and I highly recommend his services. He is always professional and available to answer any questions. I found Mel to be unfailingly polite, kind and patient. I very much appreciated that we were able to complete most tasks over the phone and/or electronically saving me valuable time during the hectic purchase/sale period. Well done Mel!
