CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mathieu for the past 5 years. Mathieu is highly professional, knowledgable, and caring for his clients. His solution-based approach delivers outstanding results for his clients and partners.

Mathieu was referred to me by a friend and helped me refinance my first house. When our family got bigger and the house got smaller, he was the first person I called to find the right mortgage for our new home. Mathieu was also very helpful in our investment property and answered all our questions (even returning phone calls from vacation at the lake!). Through phone calls and emails, the process was smooth, efficient, on point and helped us get peace of mind for our mortgages. I would not hesitate to do business with Mathieu again.

I have known Mathieu for years and when I was contemplating a new mortgage provider, I thought of him immediately. Other friends of mine have used his services, always with nothing but fantastic things to say. As a person who admittedly is not well informed when it comes to my mortgage, I was so grateful that he took the time to explain everything to me and outlined the many options I had in terms of a new mortgage. This way, I could be confident that I was making the best decision for my family.

Also, he counselled me on how I could use my mortgage to find the funds that I needed to start a small business that I had wanted to start for years, but could never find the cash flow. His advice and his services are second to none, and he really gives you that personal feel that sometimes other large institutions cannot.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Mathieu to my closest friends and family to get the level and care of service that he provides.

Thanks Mathieu!!

Mat came through for us and was a huge help at a very uncertain time. When it came time to renew our first mortgage, we were in the early stages of parenthood with our first child, and we were suddenly faced with a job loss that led us into the unknown of self-employment. Mat helped us secure a great rate with a monthly payment we could afford, and ensured that we could maintain the cash flow we needed for our personal and business expenses. It was such a relief to be able to rely on his initiative to find us the right solution when we already had so much on our plate. Now with a flourishing business and a growing family, we continue to trust Mat’s expertise and help. Thank you again Mat!

My wife and I are both teachers and came to Mat as first-time home buyers. With all the paperwork and details associated with the purchase of a new home, we were thankful to have Mat arrange our mortgage for us. He educated us on the various mortgage options and was readily available to field questions (of which there were many). This was especially helpful when a problem arose with our application to CMHC. Mat was quick to deal with the issue, inform us of our alternatives, and ultimately got us a more suitable mortgage for our needs. Thanks Mat!

With the birth of our fourth child, it was clear that our family had to get out of our little townhome and into a larger house. However, I was returning to school soon, and the prospect of trying to arrange a large down payment on a reduced income made our hopes appear dim. We were in need of honest and clear guidance on the reality of purchasing our second home. Thankfully, we were referred to Mathieu, who gave helpful advice on the options available to us. Mathieu assisted us with arranging for our re-financing for the down payment, and the new mortgage for our roomy new home in our favourite neighborhood – all without making sure we didn’t over-extend ourselves. His sensitivity and tailoring to our particular needs were obvious right from the beginning. With Mathieu’s help, we have enjoyed over a decade of prosperity and security, with things only looking better ahead. We have now turned to Mathieu for advice on investing in real property, and his approach has been consistently clear, honest, and professional. We continue to recommend Mathieu to family and friends and look forward to continuing success from our relationship with him. Thanks Mathieu!

Mat helped my wife and I out in a difficult situation a few years ago. We were in a financial pinch after an expensive wedding and had to refinance. Due to some tough terms on our first mortgage and bad timing, we were not eligible to refinance. That’s when I called Mat and he spent hours working out a plan which allowed us to add a second mortgage for a short time. Mat spent hours for little-to-no financial gain on his part and he made us very happy. That’s why it was a no-brainer to call him when it was time to sell the house and upgrade. Once again he was there by our side, making things happen quickly and efficiently. On top of that, my bank couldn’t even touch the rate he was able to provide. The best part is, he did what my previous mortgage agent failed to do; he walked us through every last detail to ensure we knew exactly what we were getting into. After all, it’s the largest purchase of our lives and there’s no one I trust more than Mat to help us.

We have worked with Mat Fugere for many years. As real estate investors who own a number of properties, we fit into the “tricky” category, where our real estate portfolio is “too big to be small” and “too small to be big.” We love working with Mat because we can always be completely honest and transparent about our position and he is consistently able to present several options for consideration. Mat consistently comes to the table with everything you’d expect from a mortgage broker (professionalism, quick turn-around time and execution); in addition, Mat is creative, and not afraid of situations that might seem difficult to other brokers. That’s what makes him unique – he has never shied away from any project that we’ve tried to do (big or small) – and he’s made deals happen when we weren’t sure they could happen. Most importantly, Mat is a man of integrity. His word and his handshake mean a lot. What he says, he does. If he can’t make it happen, he won’t tell you he can. In a nutshell, we are very thankful to have met and worked with Mat. Over the years, he has grown from a mortgage broker into a trusted advisor and friend. We’d recommend him highly.
