Frequently asked questions

A mortgage broker is a professional who deals or trades in mortgages for a licensed mortgage brokerage. They may also be responsible for supervising the activities of one or more mortgage agents (levels 1 and 2).

The course is valid for licensing for 3 years from the date of completion.

Any licensee wishing to deal in private lending should take note of the following key dates:

  • Immediately: Registration is now open
  • 1 year: Your registration length – you can finish in as little as a week or take up to 1 year
  • 3 years: How long your certificate of completion is valid
  • Anyone can take this course, but we highly recommend that you are already a licensed mortgage agent level 2
  • To get licensed you must pass this course and be licensed for at least 24 of the past 36 months
  • You should upgrade your license for several reasons:

    • Title: if you’re not a mortgage broker you have to market yourself as a mortgage agent level 1 or mortgage agent level 2.
    • Knowledge: Knowing the legislation, best practices, and what you can and can’t do will help keep you on the right side of the law. Many contraventions are made due to a lack of understanding or knowledge.
    • Opportunity: As a mortgage broker you can be the Principle Broker of a brokerage, the most important compliance role in a brokerage. You can also start your own brokerage and hire and supervise agents.
    • Respect: Being a mortgage broker comes with the respect of the industry. We know how much goes into being a broker, from experience to knowledge. You deserve the respect!
