Broker vs. Bank

One decision, more than one lens.

A mortgage is not just a rate. It is approval strength, payment risk, prepayment flexibility, penalty exposure, and the lender most likely to understand your file.

Your bank

A bank can only recommend from its own product shelf. That may be enough, but it is still one lender's view of your file.

Rate-only shopping

A lower rate can still come with penalties, restrictions, or timing risk. The cheapest number is not always the strongest structure.

Advice, not a sale

Sometimes the best move is staying with your current lender. Adam will say so when it is true.

Long-term thinking

Your mortgage is a 25-year decision, not just a 5-year rate. Both matter.
