My husband and I renewed our mortgage last year with Hercules and were extremely satisfied with the whole experience. In the past we had dealt with the bank as well as a private investor/financial firm and were pleased when Hercules managed to find us a mortgage rate that was substantially lower.As a nurse who does shift work it was refreshing to have a professional who was flexible and worked around our schedules. Hercules is the very definition of the word genuine. He was friendly, knowledgeable, professional and dedicated. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a mortgage expert who will undeniably deliver.
Switching from the bank / other broker over to Hercules was like night and day. He was very thorough, attentive, quick, and responsive. He made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. We were first-time home buyers and he was able to clearly relay the conditions from the lender efficiently despite our special circumstances. He even got us a better rate than the bank / other broker. Would recommend to all.
Hercules was great to deal with. I had some questions concerning my mortgage approval and he was able to chat at almost midnight. He got me a great rate, very professional, very on the ball type personality and takes action immediately. I absolutely would recommend him to anyone looking for a broker.
Living up to his name, Hercules was able to accomplish what I thought was impossible. With literally one week until our new house closed and multiple hurdles to jump, Herc got it done and got it done well! Amazing! I cant thank Hercules and his team and Mortgage Ingenuity enough!
This is the third mortgage we have done through Hercules. He does a fantastic job! He always gets the best rate possible. We are self employed and had he had no trouble getting any of the mortgages approved. He is always very quick to reply to my emails and answer any questions or concerns we have had. Anything we want done differently he explains what the differences are and quickly gets them taken care of. Wouldnt go anywhere else to get a mortgage )
Hercules Mina has been tremendous to work with. We have worked with Hercules on a few deals and every time he has looked after us greatly. I would highly recommend working with him.

Would be happy to go through him again for any of our mortgage or refinancing needs!
We used Hercules for two mortgages and had a wonderful experience. He helped us secure a better rate than our bank was offering each time. Hercules is very friendly, easy to deal with and quickly replied to all of our questions & concerns. I would definitely recommend speaking with him before finalizing your next mortgage.
Dealing with Hercules was very simple and straight forward. Any questions or follow-up was done quickly and provided the needed instructions to ensure the process was on track to completion.

Hercules demonstrated that he was highly knowledgeable with regards to the various mortgage solutions available. He provided guidance when we were deciding between variable and fixed based on his understanding of the current economic environment, and educated us on the various valuable mortgage features that we should consider when making our decision. Furthermore, Hercules exhibited a high level of professionalism, by coming fully prepared to every meeting and ensuring that he had everything in order on his end to allow our house to close on time.We are currently more than 2 years into our 5 year mortgage and we couldnt be happier. Hercules recommendation to go with a variable rate has saved us thousands of dollars in interest, and he ensured that our mortgage allows for extra payments, which has also been critical.Lastly, we have referred several friends to Hercules and all of them are as happier as we are! Thank you Hercules!

Many Canadians are taking advantage of refinancing some of the equity in their mortgage to reduce their credit card debt. Why pay high interest rates on your bank's credit card debt when you can add that debt to your mortgage and pay a much lower interest rate! One important part of a strategy is knowing "good debt" from "bad debt". A well-planned mortgage can help you turn those bad debts into good debts and get them out of the way.

Lenders send out renewal forms just prior to renewal dates to those with good payment histories, with about 70% of homeowners sending it back without asking any questions. You should ask yourself some questions before you sign on the dotted line. This could be an important moment of opportunity.
Having multiple lenders compete for your business is a great way to ensure you get the best rate for your situation.
When it comes to mortgages, it hasn't always paid to be self-employed - because reducing your taxable income can make it difficult to qualify for the mortgage you deserve. We understand business owners because we're business owners, too.
