I highly recommend this to 1st time home buyers like me, who are tangled and couldn't decide on there own. Ratehub/CanWise Financial is n excellent organization, I got per-mortgage approval and mortgage from this company on a very competitive rate. Additionally the process it self was very transparent and smooth. Rodney Pangilinan helped me with the whole mortgage and was very helpful in each stage of approval. I highly recommend this organization for such services. They are very responsive, active, and honest. - Haider Khan

We just did our mortgage with CanWise through Ratehub. We got a great rate and great service! There was only one in person appointment and it was at our house at a convenient time for us. Service was prompt, professional, and useful. The majors didn’t come close to matching the rate we got with CanWise. Would recommend for sure! - Nick Jordan

I tried to inquire mortgage to some banks and brokerage until I saw CANWISE advertisement online. I just fill up some questionaires then submit. After that, they assigned Rodney Pangilinan as my broker agent. He just asked me about my employment and income then he quickly gave me pre approval amount. I really can't believe it at first because he did not even asked my SIN which most company do. I was skeptical because it was too good to be true but CANWISE was indeed too good and really true!!! For now, we just moved in the property we bought. Rodney helped me with the approval processing and also find me the best rate. I am rating 5 star to Rodney Pangilinan and 5 star to CANWISE. More power to you all!!! - Analyn Enano

Working with Rodney was great! Dealing with the big banks are a huge pain, you always end up with a sales person who doesn't know anything that cannot give you the rates you expected.
