Dealing with Harmeet and Simar has been an absolute delight. As someone who has worked with mortgage consultants in the past, I can say with confidence that their service is unparalleled. They handled everything from the start of our engagement to the settlement, and I never had to follow up for updates.

I and my wife were introduced to Funding assist by a friend and when we called to inquire, we were able to find the help we were looking for. Harmeet started helping us with the process. We discovered that Harmeet was professional, friendly, supportive and hard working. Through her experience and expertise, our application was approved in a short period of time than we expected. We strongly recommend that if you are looking for someone to make you happy in the process, this is the right person. She never gives up until she brings a smile on your face. Thank you

Harmeet has been very helpful from the start to the finishing line. It was my first time experience as this is my first home. My instinct made me trust her from the beginning. She was very professional, loving and responsive in all her dealings with me. Harmeet offered me all available options. At-large the whole team were very helpful and they understands people's circumstances are different and they tailored their services to individual's circumstance. Big thank you to Simar Singh too my initial contact. Well done Harmeet.

There's not enough stars to give Harmeet and her team of superstars! Exceptional service, fabulous result! Harmeet provided a solution that enabled us to transition our home into an investment property (with our bank's proposal we needed to sell) and buy our new home without a bridging loan. All this within an impossibly tight timeline (at every turn we were told what we were attempting time wise couldn't be done). Harmeet worked tirelessly to get us across the line, and all with a fabulous smile! The long term benefits of keeping our other home will be reaped for years to come. Hugely happy and would highly recommend (though go early in the process not somewhere near the end like we did). Truly outstanding service. Thank you!
