I don’t often write reviews but I want to share the exceptional experience I had with Tom and Tekamar Mortgages. Right from the first phone call to our last communication, Tom was clear and precise in answering questions, finding answers, helping us through the documentation phase, and even smoothing out signing of the documents. He was always prompt in returning my calls and answering my emails. Tom was there every step of the way until close. And he negotiated a better mortgage than one of the big banks! Whether this is your first mortgage or like us, your sixth, do yourself a favor and give Tom a call.Absolutely great service. Very reliable and honest! Will be getting help from the tekamar crew again. Thanks a lot!

We worked with Tom Arrowsmith at Tekamar to renew our mortgage early and at his recommendation we also switched to a different lender. We had a very pleasant experience. Tom was always prompt to respond to our questions (we had lots!) and I particularly appreciated that he was willing to confirm that he thought it was wise to renew early whereas I had found our former mortgage broker to be quite vague when we were seeking advice, leaving us unsure about next steps. We always recommend Tekemar to any of our friends or family seeking a mortgage broker around Salmon Arm.The brokers at Tekamar made our first home purchase so much easier.

When my partner and I started looking to buy our first home together we knew we wanted to find someone who would take the time to talk with us since I was a first buying a home and I really didn’t know were to start. Knowing how stressful the process can be we got in touch with Rich and Amie at Tekamar Mortgages and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. Their team supported us, explained our options clearly, guided/clarified anything we were unsure of or didn’t understand and kept us updated with everything we needed to have ready make our dream home happen. They worked above and beyond considering our very tight timeline, while still making sure we felt secure in our decisions and getting everything thing in place to make it happen. We are beyond grateful to the Tekamar Team and we would highly recommend them to anyone.Rich Smith was pivotal in the process of buying my first home.

Rich Smith was pivotal in the process of buying my first home. I knew nothing about mortgages before talking to Rich, and he helped me understand everything I needed to know. Within two months of talking to him, I had an offer accepted for a home. He was extremely helpful with determining if I was ready to purchase a home and what exactly I would need to complete the process. On top of all that, Rich is a super nice dude and is very easy to talk to. 10/10Saw the 5 star reviews and decided to go with Tekamar over our Big Bank when we were looking into our first home.

Saw the 5 star reviews and decided to go with Tekamar over our Big Bank when we were looking into our first home. It was the best decision. Right from the first meeting Tom and Ester felt like family. The process was unexpectedly smooth and stress free with their steady hands helping us along. I would 100% recommend Tekamar. Just days before closing, Tom went out of his way and wrangled us a better interest rate on top of our already low rate. Not to be underestimated- interest rates that will make the people you know jealous! Totally Satisfied!Easy! great rate, we live 3 hours away from Salmon Arm and honestly was easier than dealing with a local company. All correspondence was done via email/phone.

It was less work than a small line of credit that i helped my daughter with, who is a working nurse.Dozens of people from Salmon Arm, the Shuswap and acrsoss Canada have trusted us with their mortgage in the past six months. 113 were kind enough to share their experience on the internet.

(and a couple dozen more)Getting a mortgage without a broker, is a bit like DIY dentistry
Sure you could pull the tooth out yourself, but having a dentist would probably help.
Getting advice from a mortgage broker means making the right plan today, so you can start working towards your mortgage-free tomorrow.
Helping people beat the banks since 1979.
Tekamar Mortgages has been based in Salmon Arm, BC since 1979. In that time we've worked with thousands of people across Canada.
We built our business on repeat customers. The plan was simple: treat every customer like somone we'd like to work with again and again until they were mortgage free, then make a plan to get them there. Nearly half a century later and so far it has worked.
95% of Tekamar's customers returned for their second, third and even fourth mortgages. We're pretty proud of that, and would love the opportunity to show you why so many people trust us with one of their biggest decisions.
