Mark has been a real estate investor for the past 15 years.  He has purchased over 50 properties during that time frame in a variety of cities and 3 different provinces.  He is a long time member of the Real Estate Investment Network (REIN).

After many years in the business, Mark came to the realization that there was a better way for investing in real estate and also a way for helping families realize the dream of home ownership.  Building a system that truly creates a win-win relationship.

Hence... the idea for SimpleHousing.ca was born.

This is a powerful system that brings an ease to property investing and creates an incredible strategy for want-to-be-home owners.

His team is excited to match investors with the families of those who may have never otherwise had the chance to experience the tremendous  benefits of becoming a home owner. "We welcome the chance to make a difference in the lives of many and to create a legacy lasting for generations to come."

Mortgage broker Dan Heon of Calgary knows some of his new clients are nervous when they meet him for the first time.  “I think that’s pretty normal, but it sure doesn’t last long once we get talking.”

A mortgage broker since 2002 and a real estate investor since the mid 1990s, Dan knows some clients arrive at his office worried about credit issues or their lack of credit history.  Others are convinced lenders won’t be interested in their personal stories, especially if they’re buying investment property and their portfolios appear too highly leveraged.  “Some people have basic questions about what a mortgage broker does.  They want to know how I get paid — and they want to know why they should trust me to help them get the financing they need.”

“As a mortgage specialist, I have access to a large number of lender products.  As an investor, I really do know how they work which places me in a even-better position to help my clients find more creative ways to finance their real estate purchases,” says Dan.

“You can bet that experience goes to work every time a client needs my services.”

The one thing that won’t change with experience is Dan Heon’s focus on quality client services.  “No matter what your financing needs are, I work for you, not the lenders.”

Kelly Risling and Vicky Scherer-Pettrisch of Risling/Pettrisch & Associates bring twenty years of experience to the Real Estate industry.  Satisfying clients through competence, efficiency and trust is what defines them as Real Estate professionals.

"We are well aware that regardless of what you are doing for them, clients expect you to work hard at it.  But clients seldom expect hard work simply for it's own sake - they expect the results that hard work generates."  And it's these results that Kelly and Vicky's large base of clients willingly pays testimony to.

Unlike most agents whose primary focus is shameless self-promotional activities, Kelly and Vicky's focus shifts from the sales representative's skills and abilities to client's needs, wants and expectations.  "Our ultimate objective is providing a service that produces satisfied clients."

Their main satisfaction as agents comes from helping people achieve the dream of owning their own home, and that is also the cornerstone of SimpleHousing.ca.
