Candice DeMaere
Mortgage Broker
What made you want to become a mortgage broker?
After 10 years in the banking industry, I wanted a more satisfying career, one where I could use my knowledge and skills to better assist clients purchasing, refinancing, or selling their homes. As a mortgage broker, I can provide my clients with far more options than I could at the branch. I can get my clients the best rate and product to suit their needs.
What is your favourite part of the job/mortgage industry?
What I like best about being a mortgage broker is working independently. I love being able to adapt my schedule for both my clients and my family. It’s the perfect work–life balance. I also can work with numerous lenders, allowing me to customize mortgage products and solutions for my clients. Being able to assist clients with the biggest investment of their life makes this career so fulfilling!
What do you like to do outside of work?
When I’m not working, I love spending my time with family and friends in the outdoors. Be it skiing the slopes in Fernie, camping in the mountains, or hosting a backyard barbecue, it’s time well spent!
