Find Your Ideal
Mortgage in Ottawa
Ottawa offers something for everyone – from historic downtown to family-friendly suburbs like Kanata, Stittsville, Orleans, and Carp. Having raised a family in this region, I know the communities, schools, and what matters to buyers.
Ottawa and Surrounding Neighbourhoods
Ottawa, Canada’s capital, features national landmarks like Parliament Hill and the Rideau Canal (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) List of World Heritage Sites in Canada.
Its diverse communities – from downtown with festivals like Winterlude to suburban areas like Nepean, Orleans, Kanata, Stittsville, Richmond and Carp – each have their own character. I’ve lived and worked in the Ottawa area for years, so I know these neighbourhoods inside out. Whether clients are buying a home near Colonel By in Riverside South or a family house in Kanata’s tech corridor, my deep local knowledge and long-standing ties in the region give them confidence. Nepean to Orleans or Kanata to Carp, clients count on me as their mortgage broker because I truly understand Ottawa’s markets and community needs.

EXCELLENT Based on 164 reviews Posted on Google Ross H. (RHO)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sandra was recommended to us by a family member that has worked with her for many years. Now that we have closed on our first home, I am happy to share how grateful we are to have chosen her services. Sandra walked us through what can be a complex and intimidating process with patience and professionalism. Her online platform made it very easy to manage an avalanche of documents and she was always there when we needed her. Most important of all, she got us a great rate from her preferred lender! If you are shopping around for a skilled and effective mortgage broker, I absolutely - and without hesitation - recommend Sandra Brown to help guide you through one of the more consequential financial decisons you will likely make this year. Thank you!!Posted on Google Charles St-OngeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were asked many questions about what kind of mortgage would work best for our particular situation, and then provided with possible options. Sandra was always available for consultation and guided us through the whole process from start to finish. Very happy with the level of service and friendliness!Posted on Google David PoirierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sandra was absolutely amazing to work with. As first time home buyers we had plenty of questions and Sandra always took the time to explain things to us and was overall just amazing to talk to. We would absolutely love to work with her again, and we will be recommending her to all of our family and friends who are in the market. If you're looking for someone reliable, who responds fast and is easy to work with, Sandra is the pick for you.Posted on Google Kofi BrightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Sandra made our home buying experience extremely easy, doing everything she could to benefit us as buyers. Little to no stress, answering calls and texts within minutes. A wonderful experience with Sandra. Thank you!!!Posted on Google Lindsay LaveryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Sandra to get our first house and because of her we are now Home Owners! First time home buyer here and we were previously working with a different broker, and the service we got there was what we thought was normal. It did not work out, and seriously turned us off buying a house. It just felt so unreachable and like we were children trying to be adults. Then we started working with Sandra and WOW what a different experience we had. Our offer was accepted 6:00pm on a Friday. We didn't expect to hear from Sandra until sometime on Monday. Low and behold we get a phone call not even 15 minutes later that same night. It's Sandra, walking us through our next steps. To say she is amazing is an understatement. Serious, if it weren't for her extensive knowledge, I don't think I would be writing this review from the comfort of my first home. If you are a first time home buyer (or you're well into this home buying lifestyle) go with Sandra. She is the best. She has so much patience and knowledge and she just KNOWS the game. Short story long, Sandra is the best and I will recommend her to everyone.Posted on Google Paul YamashitaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sandra was professional, friendly and absolutely amazing to work with. She took care of all our needs fast and efficiently. As a first time home buyer she made the process seamless and easy. Explained everything thoroughly and made it easy to understand. Excellent! Thank you for making our dream of home ownership come true!Posted on Google Richard PeltierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
