Mortgage agent

As a second-generation mortgage agent, Connor Green has learned that a borrower-first mentality is the best way to approach this business. “As a mortgage agent, I focus primarily on educating my clients as a means of helping them come up with financing strategies that will enable them to succeed financially long-term,” he says. “Bringing borrowers up to speed with the ever-changing industry and informing them of their options based on their short-term and long-term goals empowers them to make sound financial decisions on an ongoing basis.”
Green majored in real estate and housing at the University of Guelph, which solidified his interest in the industry, and his enthusiasm for the financial side of the business pushed him toward mortgages. He credits his mentors as a major motivator, too, and today pays it forward as a mentor and team manager of more than 20 brokers. Looking ahead, Green plans to leverage new technologies to bring his services to more Canadians and hopes that, in the near future, lenders will become more competitive in areas that are currently underserviced by the broker channel.
