ABW Commercial BROKERS 

Designated Commercial Mortgage Brokers at A Better Way Mortgage Group.

Upon completing University in 1986, I embarked on my commercial lending career. As a commercial lender out of university I did not work at a branch opening accounts, I did not do residential mortgages, I have always analyzed commercial real estate at head office levels. With more than 38 years of Commercial lending experience, I have lent on every type of property (Industrial, Commercial, Multi-unit residential buildings, Office Buildings, Construction, Commercial strata units, etc.).   

My expertise focuses on Financial Analysis, Risk Assessment, and Underwriting which ultimately, ensures a loan approval that satisfies the borrowers and lenders requirements.  I just don’t forward PDF reports to lenders.  I structure the deal, so lenders have a clear understanding of the transaction to ensure an approval is obtained.  My proven track record (38 years of Commercial Lending) has provided me with an extensive network of financial institutions, conventional and private, to find successful financing alternatives.

I am recognized by the Canadian Mortgage Professional Magazine as a top 10 Commercial Broker in Canada.

Highlights :

• Started analyzing commercial real estate for MICC in 1986.
• Highest producer in Commercial business services at Vancity Credit Union from 1996 to 2012 (left to be a Commercial broker in 2013).
• Top commercial broker yearly at DLC ABW 

I am an advocate for my clients, to provide expert advice and ensure my client’s best interests are represented in negotiations with lenders.

I am a 100% commercial broker; I do not finance Single Family Dwellings or residential strata condos. "You are involved in the process and cc'd on all emails - it is your client, not mine, we work together"
