There are generally two ways to get a mortgage in Canada: From a bank or from a licensed mortgage professional.
While a bank only offers the products from their particular institution, licensed mortgage professionals send millions of dollars in mortgage business each year to Canada's largest banks, credit unions, trust companies, and financial institutions; offering their clients more choice, and access to hundreds of mortgage products! As a result, clients benefit from the trust, confidence, and security of knowing they are getting the best mortgage for their needs.
Whether you're purchasing a home for the first time, taking out equity from your home for investment or pleasure, or your current mortgage is simply up for renewal, it's important that you are making an educated buying decision with professional unbiased advice.
About the Corfield Sisters
Originally from Brighton England, Sarah and Laura Corfield moved to Canada in 1994, with their family. They spent the remainder of their elementary and high school years in Vernon, B.C. After graduating high school, they moved to Victoria to attend the University of Victoria, where they graduated with a degree in the Bachelor of Arts in Economics.
Immediately after University Sarah became licensed as a Mortgage Broker and started out her career working for high volume brokers. She gained a substantial amount of knowledge, through underwriting their deals from start to finish.
After University, Laura joined the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) as an Underwriter. In the 3 years she spent there, she learnt the tools for underwriting commercial loans and packaging those deals to the management team. In 2009 she decided to move back to Victoria to be closer to her family. While working as an unlicensed assistant for a top volume broker, Laura herself became licensed as a Mortgage Broker. The Sisters started underwriting for a high volume firm in Victoria, which allowed them to see a vast array of deals and gave them experience and knowledge beyond their years.
In February 2012 Corfield Sisters – DLC Modern Mortgage Group was developed. Since then, Sarah & Laura have put their 22+ years experience in the finance industry to work. Their experience coupled with their outstanding customer service, has proven invaluable in getting both residential and commercial mortgages funded, in this now tougher industry, while also optimizing their clients experience.
“As a single woman, renewing a mortgage can be a stressful process; gathering all the relevant information, deciding what the best option is and hoping to make the right decision. Sarah made this process a lot less stressful by walking me through the procedure explaining the forms and details. She was always prompt in responding to my emails and phone calls, and answered my questions in a clear, understandable manner. I would recommend Sarah to any of my friends, relatives or colleagues for any of their mortgage requirements, and I will be contacting her for any of my future needs.”

“Sarah, we want to let you know that we are truly grateful that we chose to work with you, you did an amazing job with both of our mortgages. You really did everything so that we could keep the old house, at first we were losing hope but you made it possible. I’ve been telling my friends about your work and recommend you if ever they need a Mortgage Specialist to work on their mortgage. We are now enjoying our new home and my cousin is now living in our old house, which made us really happy becasue we could stil go an visit the house, that was our first home, that is why we are so thankful that we still own it. Once again we want to thank you deeply for all your help and support and for everything you’ve done to make things possible. I hope you had a great summer too, like us, good luck and more power to you, take care.”
Sincerely,
Bernadette & Rico

“As a first time home buyer, the process of purchasing and then acquiring financing can be a daunting task. Sarah and Laura not only made this process simple, painless and pleasurable but were able to accomodate all my requests. Their attention to detail was amazing, and they found me the lowest rate by far. I will be using them again and highly recommend their services to anyone with home financing needs!”

“I recently purchased a home and had the pleasure of working with Laura Corfield to obtain my mortgage. My income is very complicated – my own bank; with whom I have dealt with for ten years, simply shrugged their shoulders and told me that there was nothing that they could do to get me approved for financing. Where the “bankers” failed Laura excelled – she was unwavering in her pursuit of my financing. Laura navigated me through the endless hoops that were required for this very complicated financing with patience and comprehensive knowledge. Laura is very experienced in several financing domains and is a true professional.. Thank you Laura for your understanding and tireless efforts. Look forward to working with you again soon Laura!”
