  • We chose Scott based on his amazing Google reviews, and he absolutely didn’t disappoint. There are people who are really good at their job, and then there’s Scott. He is truly exceptional. His communication and knowledge are outstanding, and he’s an all-round friendly, approachable person with a great sense of humour. He explains everything so simply and always has time for our billion questions. We honestly couldn’t have asked for better service. We’re so excited to move into our home and continue our relationship with Advanced Mortgage Solutions.
