"West Oak’s success has come from always putting our clients’ best interests first and always finding ways to improve and add more value to them"

Stefanie LoRe began her career in financing over 30 years ago, and for her, being a Mortgage broker is all about one thing – making the impossible, possible.
Having spent the early years of her career in banking, Stefanie began her mortgage broker practice in 2008 as an independent mortgage partner assisting clients with all of their financial needs; everything from new home purchases to refinancing, renovation loans, home equity loans and debt consolidation.
It didn’t take long from when she was initially introduced to the amazing work that brokers do for their clients, that she immediately joined the ranks of Canada’s mortgage brokers and hasn’t looked back since. For her, “the best part of the job is making clients' dreams come true.”
"When I started my career 30 years ago, I was always drawn towards becoming a mortgage broker,” Stefanie says. “So when my corporate career came to an end, I felt it was the universe telling me that this was my time and I have never looked back.”
“The best aspect of the job is definitely the ability to help people,” she continues.
“I love putting a smile on people’s faces, especially when clients initially call me and think it’s not possible and when it happens and they’re over the moon – that moment makes up for all the difficulties and challenges along the way."
Stefanie says that delving into the world of brokering has come with surprises, opportunities, and endless possibilities.
“Mortgage brokers had somewhat of a stigma, back in the day. There was a perception that they could only assist clients with bad credit,” she adds. “That couldn’t be further from the truth. Discovering the possibilities that exist in this space has been fantastic for me.”
Leaving a salaried role and becoming self-employed was a major decision, and not an easy one. But with hard work, belief in yourself and a positive mindset, she says that “anything and everything is possible.”
“It was undoubtedly scary, starting out in this industry,” she explains. "However, it has been very rewarding and there’s also nothing better than being your own boss!”
