Dominion Lending Centres dominated the CMP Canadian Mortgage Awards on Friday, April 23^rd at Toronto’s Liberty Grand – walking away with five prestigious national awards!

Dominion Lending Centres took home top prizes for Mortgage Brokerage of the Year, Best Branding and Best Advertising. Meanwhile, one of our veteran broker/owners, Gary Meger, Neighbourhood Dominion Lending Centres in Barrie, ON, won Mortgage Broker of the Year. Finally, the Business Development Manager for our extensive white label Dominion Mortgage line of products, Cynthia Kramer, won Lender BDM of the Year!

“We are absolutely honoured that our industry peers and partners, as well as an esteemed panel of judges recognized Dominion Lending Centres with these incredible awards,” says Gary Mauris, President of Dominion Lending Centres.

“We will continue to provide our more than 1,700 brokers and agents across the country with value-added tools and services to ensure we remain on top, and are the company of choice for Canadian mortgage consumers,” Mauris adds.

This is the second consecutive year Dominion Lending Centres has captured the Best Branding award. Dominion Lending Centres is the only mortgage brokerage in Canada that has an advertising fund to ensure we gain access to households across the country via advertising – our main advertising vehicle being Television.

If you haven’t yet noticed an upsurge in Dominion Lending Centres TV commercials, you soon will! This month and next, we have an increased presence across the country on News and Sports programming, culminating in an astounding 12.2 Million additional viewer impressions in the key demographic of consumers between the ages of 25 and 54! This is on top of the more than 240 Million viewer impressions we will make this year.

Earlier this month, six new Dominion Lending Centres commercials began airing across Canada. The key message follows a theme that interest rates are still near historic lows, and encourages viewers to contact a Dominion Lending Centres mortgage professional through our main website – www.DominionLending.ca – when purchasing a new home, or renewing or refinancing an existing mortgage.
