5-Star Reviews
Buying a home is a big deal.
You shouldn’t feel confused, rushed, or pressured into decisions.
Family Mortgage Planners helps you find the right mortgage for YOUR needs — with clear explanations, honest advice, and a team that treats you like family.
Not all mortgages are created equal.
There may be an option that
fits your life better than another.
Our mission is to find it for you.
When it comes to financing, most homebuyers start (and stop) at their bank.
But, there are actually dozens of mortgage options available, and the differences can matter more than you think.
The challenge isn’t getting a mortgage.
It’s knowing which one actually fits your life.
That’s exactly where we come in.
As licensed mortgage brokers, we compare options from over 30+ lenders across Canada.
That means you get access to more options — not just what one bank can offer.
When you work with us, we:
Do all of the research for you.
Explain your options clearly.
Help you confidently choose the best mortgage for your needs.
We’re with you every step of the way.
Truly exceptional service!

Working with Joel and team at Family Mortgage Planners made the entire mortgage process so much less stressful.
They were super patient, knowledgeable, and always quick to answer our questions (even the small ones). They explained everything clearly and helped us understand what we actually qualified for.

We received the most excellent service! Joel was thorough and patient with the particularities of my situation and the whole process went smoother than I could have hoped for. Our real estate lawyer even commented to me that my mortgage broker did an amazing job because it had been ages since he had seen a lower mortgage rate.
Hats off to this incredible team at Family Mortgage Planners!

The team at Family Mortgage Planners are exceptional. They got us a great rate on our house in 2015, and an even better rate when we refinanced in 2020.
They are super easy to communicate with and are very helpful at answering any questions or concerns. We will continue to use them for our mortgage needs and I drop their name to all of my friends who are looking for mortgages.
Beau W.
We’d be honored to serve you, too.

April 4, 2025Mark was fantastic to work with. After dealing with a bank and having a less than positive experience, Mark had me pre-approved in less than an hour in a better deal than I thought possible. I would recommend them in a heartbeat!

November 16, 2021Mark has been a pleasure to work with. Competitive rates and valuable advice. Thought I would try a discount mortgage provider direct and If I chose him instead I would have saved a lot of money as rates dropped and now I’m locked in!
