The mortgage broker your clients' balance sheet deserves.

When a client's mortgage problem is really a tax-structure problem, most brokers are out of their depth. We speak accountant: add-backs, retained earnings, holdco structures, CRA arrears — and we document files the way you'd want them documented.

The files we take off your desk

Complex files, handled the way you'd handle them.

🧾

CRA arrears & tax debt payouts

Equity take-outs that clear CRA debt before it poisons bank credit. Structured so the client can graduate back to A-lending in 12–24 months.

📈

Self-employed income reality

Add-backs, dividends, retained earnings, two-year averages that penalize a growth year — we qualify on how the money is actually earned, with lenders who accept it.

🏢

Holdco / Opco structures

Purchases and refinances inside corporate structures, inter-company balances explained to lenders properly, personal vs corporate covenant negotiated deliberately.

🔁

Smith Manoeuvre & cash damming

Readvanceable structures set up correctly from day one — segregated sub-accounts your client's bookkeeper won't curse at tax time.

⚖️

Divorce & shareholder buyouts

Equity splits, spousal buyouts and partner exits financed with discretion and clean paper trails.

🛠️

Consumer proposals & restructuring

Clients rebuilding after insolvency — realistic lending lanes today and a mapped path back to prime.

Relationship protection

How we protect your client relationship.

🤝

Your client stays your client

We handle the mortgage. We don't sell investments, insurance, or accounting referrals to anyone else. Every file comes back to you stronger.

🔍

You get the full picture

With client consent, you see the structure before it's submitted — leverage, rate, amortization, prepayment and the tax logic. No surprises at year-end.

📋

Documentation you can defend

Files built like you build working papers: complete, consistent, and explainable to CRA, a lender, or a court if it ever comes to that.

Process

What a referral looks like.

1

Intro call (15 min)

You outline the situation; we tell you honestly whether we can add value and roughly what the structure could look like.

2

Client conversation

We meet your client, gather documents, and keep you copied at the level of detail you choose.

3

Structure review

Before submission you see the proposed structure and can flag tax implications we should route around.

4

Funding & handback

Deal funds, you receive a closing summary for your file, and the client returns to you for the tax side.

Partner FAQ

Questions accountants actually ask.

Do you pay referral fees to accountants?+

Where regulations allow and with full disclosure to the client, referral arrangements are available — but most of our accounting partners decline them to preserve independence. Either way works; the client is told either way.

Will you try to cross-sell my client anything?+

No. We broker mortgages. No insurance, no investments, no wealth management — your client's other advisory relationships stay exactly where they are.

My client has CRA debt and the bank found out. How fast can you move?+

If equity exists, a private or alternative first/second can clear CRA in 2–3 weeks, followed by a planned refinance to A-lending once returns and statements are clean — typically 12–24 months.

Can you work with clients outside BC and Alberta?+

Our licenses cover BC and Alberta. Files in Ontario and other provinces run through our national access desk and underwriting partners — one point of contact, same standards.
