About Fran

Q. What inspired you to become a Mortgage Broker?

A. I could see how complicated the process can be to get a mortgage directly with the bank, lots of ‘jargon’, abundance of form filling and not to mention second guessing if you’re getting the best possible rates and cash incentives from the bank!  – It doesn’t need to be a scary process; I can help simplify the process, take the guesswork out of getting a mortgage  and help you every step of the way.

Q. What is the best part of being a Mortgage Broker?

A. Seeing dreams of home ownership become reality, nothing tops this!

Q. What have you found to be the most challenging aspect?

A. The most challenging aspect of being a Mortgage Broker is keeping up with the mad rush to settle the last week before Christmas but extremely exciting at the same time!

Q. What is your most memorable client experience?

A. I’ve helped so many happy customers and their family and friends over the last 10 years, these clients were a particular success story after losing their home due to unforeseen circumstances, they brought a home and income for their extended family, a double celebration!

Q. How would you sum up being a Mortgage Broker in three words?

Q. If you were Prime Minister for one day, what would you do?

Q. If you could have dinner with any three people (alive or dead), who would it be?
