Canadian Mortgage Brokers
Content last updated: June 5, 2020
Mortgage brokers in Canada function as an originator for your mortgage. What that means is a mortgage professional will serve as your representative when shopping for a mortgage through lenders. A Canadian mortgage professional will evaluate your situation to determine the best rate and product to service your needs.
Mortgage brokers are experts in their field but are independent of any particular lender. That means they can give you personalized advice based on your needs, rather than the needs of your bank. Mortgage brokers also have access to exclusive mortgage rates, that may not be available on a retail market.
The Advantages of Using a Mortgage Broker in Canada
- A broker’s services are free. The lender that provides the mortgage loan will pay the broker a finder’s fee
- All the negotiating and paperwork is handled by the broker
- Canadian brokers have extended hours because they operate independently
- A mortgage agent in Canada can source a mortgage from multiple lenders
- Mortgage professionals have immense industry knowledge because they are not limited to one lender, so they have a broad view of the mortgage landscape
Should you use a mortgage broker?
There's really no reason not to speak to a mortgage broker when you're shopping for a mortgage. At the very least you'll get personalized expert advice, at best you'll save thousands on your mortgage, thanks to getting a better rate. Ratehub.ca is affiliated with CanWise Financial, one of Canada's leading mortgage brokers, so we see this happen every day - people don't realize how much they can save with a mortgage broker.
Of course, you can always speak to multiple mortgage brokers. Different brokers may have agreements with different lenders or be willing to reduce their commissions more than others. That means you could find better deals by speak to multiple mortgage brokers.
We try to make the process a little easier, by comparing the best mortgage rates from multiple lenders as well as multiple brokers. If you'd like to see what rates might be available to you in just a couple of minutes, answer a few questions here.
Canadian Broker Associations and Licensing
Nationally, there is no unifying governing body that all mortgage brokers adhere to. Rather, each mortgage professional licence is handled province-to-province. However, in all provinces, the mortgage broker-to-be must be at least 18 years of age and have Canadian citizenship.
The Canadian Association of Accredited Mortgage Professionals, also known as CAAMP, does offer licensing courses for individuals in order to receive the Accredited Mortgage Professional (AMP) designation. The courses cover important topics such as ethics, standards, and responsibilities. The Accredited Mortgage Professional designation (AMP) is the only national proficiency standard for Canada’s mortgage industry. It’s not required but adds additional credibility.
