My husband and I were referred to Andy by our realtor for financial assistance during the sale of our family home of 22 years. At the time, we had also purchased a lakefront property up north, and an earlier purchase – a condo – was moving very quickly towards final closing. When we approached our bank for financing they were unable to assist us in both regards, given the recent changes in mortgage rules, and our family home was still for sale. Andy was able to secure for us a mortgage, as well...

I have worked with Andy on personal projects in the past. I recently referred him to help a person who is close to me obtain secondary financing. Andy helped make the process easy to understand, and a little less stressful, with his knowledge and awareness of facts. An invaluable characteristic to posses! Dave Doyle Mississauga, Ontario

I was at a crossroad in my life where I had two choices, I either keep my property and secure a 2nd mortgage or sell and rent until I decide what my next move is. Andy provided me with multiple choices in regards to second mortgages, all at great rates. In the end, we discussed these choices and he helped me come up with the best solution. His insight was invaluable and his solution ultimately saved me thousands of dollars. I would highly recommend Andy, he is well versed in all areas of the...

Recently I purchased a property in the "sellers" market only to sell in the "buyers" market (bad timing). I called Andy and he gave me unparalleled advice. He was the only person that didn't sugar coat my situation - he was matter of fact. He was there for me with my panic emails and messages at all hours. He understood that my livelihood was on the line. I finally closed my deal exactly how Andy had recommended, at no benefit to him. I will never buy or sell a property again without fi...

I have been working with Andy for ten years now. Over that time, he has arranged a mortgage for me, helped me navigate the world of TFSAs and RESPs - both contributing and then withdrawing as my kids went to college - and managed my RRSP portfolio. I find him to be knowledgeable, helpful, and proactive in making sure that I am getting the maximum benefit from my investments, and I would highly recommend him. Debbie McNamee Burlington, Ontario

I own a small business and needed to get a first mortgage on my home to take advantage of the equity. The banks were giving me the run around for months. Finally I came to my senses and let Andy take over. He Came through as promised and I ended up with a better rate and a superior product. Thanks for all your help Andy!

“Coles Notes” On A TFSA

Posted on May 12, 2016December 2, 2020 by admin

Tax Free Savings Accounts were created in 2009 as a way for Canadians to invest for their future. With the latest change in Government, Canadians can now contribute up to $5,500 per year in their TFSA. Here is what you need to know about a TFSA: 1) You are allowed to contribute up to $5,500 per year to an account. If you have not contributed previously you can contribute up to $46,500 into a TFSA in 2016. 2) A TFSA is not your typical "savings account". Many people are under the as...
