"I believe I speak for our entire team when I say that the DLC training departments presentation was, without exception, the most informative DLC presentation I have been a part of! I personally have pages of notes that include new ideas for creating sales opportunities, branding, and tools that will assist my broker partners as they grow their business. There was so much VALUE-ADD that we have invited them to return at the first opportunity to ‘zero in’ on specific topics."

The mortgage industry is always evolving. It is imperative to keep up to date with all of the latest rules and regulations. Following the regulatory changes in October 2016, and 2017, we created ‘Change of Space’, an informative document that explained the new mortgage rules for brokers and their clients. Additionally, we created newruleshurt.ca, an advocacy platform to demonstrate to government leaders how the changes have affected regular Canadians.
Each quarter we curate compelling and educational content for Our House Magazine – a lifestyle magazine focusing on homeownership. We distribute 50,000 copies across Canada to our brokers so they can connect with their clients, and keep them informed with the most up-to-date mortgage news, interesting tips, and featured celebrities (including Vikram Vij, Jillian Harris, and Bryan Baeumler).
