Nick was fantastic and kept up with the twists and turns of our real estate process. He provided us with all the information and support we needed, plus a wonderful last minute surprise rate drop as the cherry on top.

As first-time homebuyers, we were a bit intimidated by the whole process but Nick made everything feel manageable. He is always quick to respond to emails and takes the time to explain things clearly and patiently. His attention to detail and professionalism gave us a lot of confidence every step of the way.

Nick is absolutely fantastic! He has now helped us with 3 mortgages, working hard to get us great rates each time. All have been seem-less, on point, informative and done with no pressure. He provided options, answered every question quickly and guided us through the whole process with a smile.

Nick was my advisor for my first home purchase. He walked me through the entire process and was available 24/7. Buying a home is a stressful endeavour but Nick was able to answer every question I threw at him and in an extremely timely manner. Nick also went out of his way every few days to update me on changing mortgage rates.

Nick was AMAZING to work with! Incredibly reliable, he was always replying to our emails or texts within minutes, late at night or early in the morning. He always made us feel like we were his #1 priority. Working with Nick made the process of buying a new home ALMOST stress free!

Nick found me a fantastic rate and I really felt he had my best interest at heart during the entire process. He went over and above my expectations, was extremely fast at replying to my messages and answered all of my many, many questions as a first time home-buyer in Canada.

Nick stepped up when another broker told us he couldn't get an insurer for a high ratio mortgage. Nick took over in record time, reached out to lenders and insurers and got us a better rate (with insurance) than what had been on the table. He was extremely helpful, professional and knowledgeable.

When we were negotiating our mortgage renewal with one of the big banks we went to Nick for a second opinion. Nick explained exactly what type of mortgage we had, and provided us with the tools we needed to negotiate the best rate with the bank. He did this even though he wasn't actually representing us. Thanks Nick!

After weeks of stress, we searched and called around and finally landed with Nick. Right from the start, the service was top notch. He didn't waste our time with lenders that did not fit our requirements. He also didn't ask us to sign an exclusivity agreement which just speaks to his service confidence.

I was a first time home buyer, and I was so grateful for Nick to get me approved since I work on commission. He has good relationships with every bank so he was able to get me approved without any hesitation or special requirements, my own bank couldn't even do that! He was also able to get me a very low interest rate!

Before you reach out

Common questions about getting in touch

What is the fastest way to reach Nick?

A WhatsApp message to 613 294 4475 is the quickest. I reply within about 30 minutes during business hours, and you deal with me directly, never a call centre. You can also call the same number, email nick@mortgageinottawa.com, or send the form on this page.

Do I have to visit the office in person?

No. Almost everything runs by phone, video call, screen share and WhatsApp, with documents uploaded through a secure portal. The office at 1320 Carling Avenue, Suite 205 is there if you would rather sit down face to face, but plenty of clients across Ottawa never need to drive over.

What does it cost to contact Nick or get advice?

Nothing. There is no fee for my service. I am a licensed Mortgage Agent working under Referral Mortgages Inc., and I am paid by the lender your mortgage funds with, so the first call, the comparisons and the paperwork all come at no charge to you.

When can I expect a reply?

Send a message any time, day or night. Replies are fastest during the day, where no message sits longer than about 30 minutes, and anything that comes in late is picked up early the next morning. If your file is active, Nick updates you every single day it is moving.

Should I contact Nick before I have found a home?

Yes, that is the best time. A relaxed first call costs nothing and tells you what you can comfortably spend before you fall in love with a house. There is no pressure and no obligation, and many clients talk to Nick months before they ever write an offer.
