I was able to get two mortgages with McKay. The first time, he was able to get us approved in less than 3 days while my wife and I were looking for our first place to buy. We were on a budget and I didn't have a lot of work history. Yet, McKay worked frantically on our file and was able to deliver successfully in the end. Fast forward 7 years later, I contacted McKay again to let him know that we were looking for an investment place this time. Although my wife and I had much better wage compared to the first time, we had no down payment whatsoever and again not a lot of work history in my case due to a recent career change. McKay once again worked his magic through and through and was able to get us approved for a mortgage big enough for us to buy an almost brand new 1 bedroom apartment in a centrally located fast growing neighbourhood. Working with McKay also means you get a chance to get connected with the best people you can find in realty and in the legal sphere. These two additional components are crucial in the home acquisition process and I'm very grateful to McKay for his ability to recommend the best people to work with. But what I appreciate the most in the end is the fact that McKay is a happy person with a very inquisitive mind. He loves his job, he is trustworthy and he genuinely cares about you, not as a customer but as a person. His success lies in his great personality and his most friendly demeanour. He's passionate about what he does and he is very personable. He is the embodiment of what most people are looking for and when they find him, they stay with him. Thank you McKay!!!
McKay and his team are awesome mortgage brokers to work with.
He helped us throughout the process of our 1st home purchase in BC.
He ensured we understand the process well and was friendly and responsive to our queries.
He is well informed, reachable, prompt, professional with his work.
He ensured we understand our options well and helped us choose the right one for our family needs.
I would recommend him to anyone looking out for mortgages. I wish him well and good luck!
I highly recommend McKay and team for any mortgage or home financing needs. McKay helped me secure my first mortgage, His team is experienced and very professional, pretty much handled the complete process all by themselves with no stress for us! I cant thank him enough for the help! We will sure be working with McKay for all our future home financing needs
My wife and I worked directly with McKay when we were buying our first house and he was great to deal. Him and his team were always available to take our calls and answer our (many) questions, day or night. It was exceptionally impressive given the time zone difference of PST to EST.
Not only was the service great but we also received a great rate from the Financial Institution, savings us more than $100/month on interest payments.
All in all, a great experience with McKay
McKay Wood came recommended to us through a colleague (who happens to be an economist). We figured if an economic analyst thinks McKay knows his stuff, he'd be good enough for us - who were completely new to the world of mortgages and financing. McKay took the time (even during a vacation!) to answer all of our questions and walk us through the process (multiple times!). We're very happy with the level of service and support we received from McKay, and will be pleased to recommend him to anyone looking for help with financing a home purchase. And a special shout out to Melanie Andriesse (Senior Mortgage Underwriter), who stayed in consistent communication with us to make sure we understood and submitted all the necessary documentation to secure our financing.
