Shiella A2022-06-30Nic is professional, intuitive, personable and passionate about his role. We are so gald to have Nic as our financial advisor; our portfolios are well managed and we have been happy with the outcomes over the years. Nic always goes out of his way to help us. We had a bad experience with our Canada life mortgage broker, his lack of support and responsiveness almost cost our family a great opportunity so we had to move on. We honestly wish Nic was able to handle our mortgage needs as well. This will ensure that all our service needs will be well managed. Thank you Nic for everything you do!

We talked about my goals and plans for retirement. We also talked about my comfort level when it comes to the the ups and downs of investing. I felt very comfortable with Nic. He is down to earth and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Nic to anyone needing a financial planner.
