Why Use A Chatham Mortgage Broker?


  1. SAVINGS – A Chatham mortgage broker has access to many more lenders then the well known banks and credit unions ensuring that you DO get the best rate possible.
  2. CONVENIENCE – Obtaining a mortgage through me is quick, easy and convenient. I have the flexibility to work around your schedule. Most of the work can often take place over the phone or through email.
  3. STRESS FREE – There is no need to negotiate. I will give you the lowest rate EVERY TIME.
  4. COST – My service is free of charge to most consumers. Charges may apply when the borrower has bad credit or has an extremely high debt to equity ratio. A simple rule of thumb would be if every bank and credit union in Canada turns you down, there may be a fee.
  5. ECONOMY OF SCALE – When dealing with a bank, a mortgage broker will often be able to get a much lower rate than the lowest rate offered to the consumer.
  6. ETHICS AND INTEGRITY – As an Ontario mortgage agent I am licensed by the Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO.GOV.ON.CA) and a member of the Canadian Association Of Accredited Mortgage Professionals (CAAMP.ORG), the lending officer at your bank is not. My license and membership can be confirmed at the links below.

  7. NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST – As a Chatham mortgage agent I provide a service. The service I offer is to find you the lender with the lowest interest rate, to provide you with flexible mortgage options and to provide unbiased answers to your questions. The mortgage officer at your bank is there to sell you their employer’s product.

About Chatham


The Municipality of Chatham-Kent (2006 population 108,177) is a city-status single-tier municipal government in Southern (Southwestern) Ontario, Canada. The municipality is mainly rural and agricultural, with industry in the larger urban areas.

Economy and Industry


Chatham-Kent has an increasingly diverse economy, with a base in the agricultural and automotive sectors. The municipality and senior levels of government are keen to promote continuing diversification.


Located in the “industrial heartland”, Chatham’s roots in the automotive sector go back to Gray-Dort Motors Ltd., one of Canada’s earliest automobile manufacturers. (Chatham was also the birthplace of Hank Chrysler, father of Walter P. Chrysler, founder of the Chrysler automobile company). Today, a heavy truck plant operated by Navistar International Corporation (NYSE symbol NAV) was one of the largest employers in the city. Established in 1912, the operation was threatened with closure in 2002, but remained open thanks to $65 million in government grants and a new collective agreement with the Canadian Auto Workers local representing the workers. Other auto industry plants in the municipality include AutoLiv Canada in Tilbury (airbags), Mahle in Tilbury (emissions controls and plastics).


Chatham-Kent is the headquarters for Pioneer Hi-Bred Limited (a division of DuPont), a major agricultural seed breeding and biotechnology company. Omstead Foods, founded in Wheatley in 1911 is now the largest fresh fish producer in Canada and second largest frozen vegetable processor. In 1996, Chatham became the home of Commercial Alcohols, which is the largest ethanol plant in Canada, and one of the largest in the world. It produces ethanol for industrial, medical, and beverage uses. In January 2005, the plant was named as one of Canada’s 50 best managed companies. There are plans to double the size of the current Chatham facility. The plant faced criticism in the past due to corn mash odour from its stack, but has installed technology to eliminate the problem. However, these efforts need to be readressed, due to the fact that this technology has been discovered to be faulty by many of the local residents.

There are many farms in the municipality, and a number of vineyards have been opened in the last few years.


Many international workers come to Chatham-Kent, especially in the warmer seasons, to do farm labour. In the past there have been allegations of low pay and poor living and working conditions for these agricultural labourers. ‘El Contrato’, a film by The National Film Board of Canada, addresses these issues in depth.


Chatham is home to the headquarters of Union Gas, a natural gas utility and Spectra Energy company. Other energy related activities include wind farms near the shores of Lake Erie.


Chatham also serves as a retail centre for the municipality and surrounding area. This has included the development of large big-box stores particularly at the north end of Communication Road in Blenheim, and at the north end of St. Clair Street in Chatham.


Chatham is home to technology companies as well. For example, TekSavvy Solutions Inc. provides high-speed internet, telephone, and other advanced telecommunications services across Canada.
