Kambi Heywood Mortgage Broker
BrokerSquared Paragon Mortgage Group
About Us
I am a licensed Mortgage Broker with over 25 years lending experience, and am connected to the largest mortgage brokerage in Canada. My main focus is residential financing (first time home buyers, investment properties, refinancing), with solid connections as well in commercial financing. I would love to connect!
How We Got Started
I was given an opportunity many years ago to learn about small business lending, and that's how it all started! I have found a passion for helping people attain their dreams by finding the financing to get them started. I still love what I do more than ever :-)

I love using social media to connect with existing clients & referral sources. I am not a fan of using social media for "SEO", or to be easy for those I have no existing client relationship with to find me. I prefer to grow my business through qualify referrals from those I have already worked with. This strategy has paid off in spades with amazing, loyal clients who already respect what I am able to provide to them.

I am a Mortgage Broker and have been in the industry over 20 years. I can seriously say my biggest success was understanding that there is a sweet spot where you no longer "try" to grow your business. When you have passion for what you do, and can be at a point where you are not desperate to grow a client base, but rather selective of who you want to work with, business takes off. Also, understanding how much you are worth per hour and stick to it!
There is a balance: you can have a Realtor or Mortgage Broker who has been in the industry many years, and for whatever reason (too busy, burnt out), although they have wisdom, they lack the motivation or energy to get the job done with excellence. If a newer person has great connections to...

There is a balance: you can have a Realtor or Mortgage Broker who has been in the industry many years, and for whatever reason (too busy, burnt out), although they have wisdom, they lack the motivation or energy to get the job done with excellence. If a newer person has great connections to information, and has the passion to wow their clients, sometimes that can be just as good, or better. I do find that reminding my brokers & clients that I have over 24 years in the industry helps; ultimately though, it is HOW well I get the job done in the end that matters most.

The concept of having an "office" is evolving and changing, thank goodness. I have worked both from home, and have leased office space. The happy medium that works for me now is having a membership at an office centre with shared offices. This allows me professional space to meet with my clients when I need, and most days I have the luxury of working at home where I can be super productive.

Buying real estate is generally a long-term investment, and over time property values go up in value. Saying that, there is rarely a bad time to buy real estate. There are so many variables to consider though: primary residence vs rental, single family dwelling vs condos, small community investment vs large population investment, existing property vs new development. Mortgage rates are insanely low in Canada. Most major centres have a serious shortage of rental properties and almost 0% vacancy.
I don't have my vehicle "wrapped", BUT I do have my name, phone#, company logo, & "mortgages made easy" on my Ford Flex. It didn't cost much to put on, and is a great way to advertise. The down-side is I feel the need to keep my vehicle extra clean, and be super courteous when I drive!
