Industry professionals came from across the country to attend the awards night at The Liberty Grand ballroom in Toronto. All eyes were fixed on the stage as the honourees took home the industry’s most coveted prizes.

"It feels awesome winning as my first year as a broker," said Akash Sharma, Able & Remarkable Mortgages. "The reason I came here is to network and I'm very thankful to Community Trust to give me the award."

Tuxes, cocktail dresses and a few adventurous dance moves were spotted at the event. So too were hundreds of the industry’s top professionals, who eagerly anticipated the announcement of this year’s lucky winners, which included Andy Anastasiou from SGE Financial Inc., who took home The First Source Award For Commercial Mortgage Broker of the Year.
