30+ Years Living in Alberta  ~  25+ Years as a Mortgage Broker
One Goal: Get You the Right Mortgage.
Serving Calgary, Okotoks, and High River since 1999
I’ve helped first-time buyers, growing families, retirees, and
investors find the right mortgage.
I’m Shawn Selanders, Your Local Mortgage Professional.
Whether you’re buying your first home, renewing, refinancing, or exploring a reverse mortgage
I work for you, not the banks.
Look, getting a mortgage doesn’t have to be complicated.
But it does require someone who knows what they’re doing, tells you the truth, and actually returns your calls.
That’s me.
With 25+ years as an independent broker. I shop many lenders you or your bank does not have access to,
I negotiate on your behalf, and make sure you understand every decision.
No jargon. No pressure. Just the right mortgage for your situation.
Why Work With Shawn?
25+ Years Experience — I’ve seen multiple market cycles. I know what works.
Deep Local Roots — Lived in Calgary since 1992, Okotoks from 2004 and now based in High River. I know this market.
Independent Broker — I shop 20+ lenders from various sources to find YOU the best fit. Not just one bank’s products.
Straight Talk, No BS — I’ll tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. First-time buyers to seasoned investors — I’ve helped them all.
