Regulatory Transparency
& Client Protection

Governing Authority

All mortgage services in British Columbia are regulated by the **BC Financial Services Authority (BCFSA)** under the *Mortgage Brokers Act*.

Licence #

Understanding Form 10

The *Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement* (Form 10) is a mandatory document I provide to every borrower at the earliest opportune time. It ensures you know exactly how I am compensated and if any conflicts exist before you commit to a lender. The information in Form 10 has not been filed with the BCFSA Registrar and the Registrar has not passed on the merits of the mortgage.

Professional Standards of Care

Integrity is the foundation of a boutique mortgage practice. While the law sets the minimum requirements, I aim for a standard of transparency that empowers you to make decisions with absolute confidence.

Conflicts of Interest

As a registered sub-mortgage broker, I am legally required to disclose any direct or indirect interest in a mortgage transaction. This is documented via the BCFSA Form 10.

Lender Selection

I have access to over 50 lenders across Canada. My recommendation is always based on the best terms and rates for your specific situation, never on lender-specific incentives.

Compensation Transparency

In most residential cases, my services are paid for by the lender. Any rare exceptions or broker fees are strictly disclosed and agreed upon before any application is submitted.

Privacy & Data Protection

Your financial data is handled with institutional-grade security. We adhere to all BC PIPA (Personal Information Protection Act) regulations.

The Client Charter

Complete confidentiality of your financial data.
Proactive rate-drop monitoring between approval and funding.
Full disclosure of all mortgage terms, including early-exit penalties.
Access to 'wholesale' rates not available at retail bank branches.
Ongoing strategy reviews throughout the entire life of your mortgage.
