Welcome and thank you for visiting my site 🙂 I'm always adding new tools, calculators, testimonials, blogs, so cruise around and enjoy!  Â
Your options and what I will do for you ……..
There are generally two ways to get a mortgage in Canada: From a bank or from a licensed Mortgage Broker, like me, Bob Rees of Dominion Lending Centres (DLC) Maximal Mortgages. While a bank offers only the products from their institution (singular), I have access to 30+ lenders. In addition, my service is client focused, I focus on YOU. I will uncover YOUR unique financing needs, we will work together to accomplish YOUR financing goals and I will locate the very best lender who will satisfy, and many times, exceed YOUR expectations. With 17+ years of mortgage experience and having helped thousands of clients finance their homes, why not put my knowledge to work for YOU? I will provide you with the best service and the best options available on the market today!Â
Whether you're a First Time Buyer, taking out equity from your home for investment or pleasure, or your current mortgage is up for renewal, it's important that you are making an educated decision with the help of a professional.  A professional who will provide unbiased advice, who is knowledgeable and who is client focused ..... someone who is a member of YOUR team. I am here anytime!
About me personally …..
I have two amazing children and an amazing wife, all of whom I am very proud of and very fortunate to have in my life. When I'm not with my family or helping a client, you will most likely find me on the ice; either coaching or playing hockey. I've been involved with sports my whole life and have had some exceptional coaches, to whom I am grateful. One of the ways I give back and pay it back is by coaching. Being a Head Coach for Hockey and Baseball are passions of mine. Seeing a players confidence grow (on and off the ice), directly having a hand in their skill development as well as their growth of Hockey IQ are all extremely motivating and gratifying. After 10+ years of coaching .... you should see how many practice plans I have LOL!Â
Â
Thank you for your time and I look forward to being a part of YOUR team!

-Bob  Â
Bob was recommended to us from our Realtor and we are so incredibly grateful to have worked with him on such a major decision for our family. As it was our first time selling our home while purchasing a new build, we were a bit apprehensive about the entire process. Working with Bob made us feel at ease! We felt that he genuinely cared about providing us with the best possible mortgage and financial advice and he was always available to answer our questions or concerns. He is able to explain complex financial forms in a way that you can fully understand. He provided us clear direction on what we required to make everything possible and always checked in with us during our year long build. We really appreciated him taking the time to discuss everything in detail. It was an absolute pleasure working with Bob and we will most definitely be contacting him in the future.
- Patricia and Tristan
My partner and I are first time home buyers. We wanted someone who could help educate and guide us; someone we could trust. We had spoken to several banks and mortgage brokers before a family member recommended Bob to us. We were sold after the first phone call.
Bob exceeded expectations. He made himself available whenever we had questions. His answers were always informative and detailed. He made the process stress free and seamless.
Without a doubt when we are ready to move onto house number two, Bob will be the guy we reach out to for a mortgage.
Thanks for the everything.
-Kailee and Stefan
If you need a mortgage I highly recommend calling Bob Rees. I have worked with him both professionally and personally over the years and he’s been nothing short of awesome.

“This is the second time Bob has helped me purchase a property and we cannot say Thank You enough. Being that it was an acreage and we are self-employed I expected some challenges, but Bob was on top of things every step of the way. He went above and beyond, working on our deal late at night to meet closing deadlines, always keeping us updated as to progress, and giving clear guidance on the next steps. The best in the business. “
- Garrett and Corissa (Leduc County)
This has been a year of significant change for me and for my family. As a newly single mom of three, I had a lot of anxiety regarding purchasing a home independently. Would I be swindled? Did I have enough financial savvy to navigate the nuances of purchasing a home? Fixed? Variable? Term? Penalties? I tell you, those contracts are lengthy and my heart skipped a beat each time I considered the gravity of such a huge decision.
Bob guided me through this process and had a knowledgeable answer for every one of my questions. I felt both supported and informed throughout my journey of finding/purchasing a home. We had numerous contacts during this time and Bob was sure to be available by phone, text, or email, readily accommodating my atypical business hours and demands of family. In addition, I feel that he genuinely understood and respected my desire to be informed and explore every option to ensure the best fit in a mortgage.
I’m incredibly thankful that we had an opportunity to work together and won’t hesitate to reach out in the future. I would recommend Bob as a mortgage broker to any friend of family member.

My husband and I are really glad to choose Bob for the purchase of our first home. He is absolutely amazing…friendly, responsible and professional. He is also very knowledgeable, timely with any updates and have our best interests in mind. Thank you Bob from the bottom of our heart for guiding us through the deal, educating us about mortgage plans, assisting us with all the papers, willing to take time and chat every time we needed. We appreciate all the time and efforts he made to help us smooth the transaction. We would definitely recommend him.
-Cecilia & Tim
We have used Bob’s services twice now, the first time on a recommendation of our realtor and the second time we sought him out ourselves after dealing with our bank’s mortgage specialist, and not.
Both times we were completely satisfied and appreciative of the work that Bob did. To make a long story short, Bob went above and beyond to ensure that we were able to move forward with our lives. Where others failed to do so, Bob found ways of securing what we needed in order to get our mortgage approved. He has a vast knowledge and good standing with lenders in order to get the job done. I would not recommend anyone else for this job and I will continue to use Bob for any further mortgage requirements that we may have.
- Ryan from Edmonton
Bob helped us with a somewhat complicated financing situation when we were purchasing our home and throughout the process he was patient, thorough and kind. We really benefited from his advice and knowledge. We would highly recommend Bob for all your financing needs!

“For Bob Rees, mortgage broker
We would like to acknowledge the excellent service that we received from Bob during the refinancing process of our mortgage.
This process was so frustrating when we went through it with our previous agent.
Bob’s professionalism and sound knowledge of the whole process was impressive and truly appreciated.
Despite the restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which made things lengthy and complicated…no physical meetings etc…Bob went above and beyond our expectations to ensure all of our needs were met and everything was handled thoroughly and efficiently.
We are so glad we decided to go with Bob for the refinance of our mortgage.
We will be recommending Bob to our friends in the future.”
-Sophie and Roger, Edmonton
“Bob, I simply cannot thank you enough for all your assistance in renewing my mortgage. I’ve worked with you for multiple years and there’s many reasons why…here’s just a few. You’re patient, informative and also extremely flexible with any changes last minute. I cant thank you enough for working with me, at all hours, day or night, weekends and week days to make this mortgage go as smoothly and efficiently as possible. You secured a rate and saved me thousands of dollars. You truly have a customer for life. Thank you Bob!”

Bob at Bob Rees Mortgages (DLC) was very helpful and intuitive. He was always available to answer questions even when he was away in Jasper with the family. He also was able to forsee any future issues and head them off. Very friendly and easy to talk.
Thanks Bob for making a stressful time much easier!
Regards,
- Jordan (Edmonton)
