Our team

Better people make better lending

We lend billions of dollars to commercial real estate projects every year. But it’s not just capital that distinguishes us. It’s the empowered nature of our workforce. Our advisors are experienced experts whose sole focus is to deliver financing strategies that enable you to achieve greater success.  

Our Better Lending culture – three decades in the making – is built on the skill that comes from pure mortgage lending.  Because we start from a position of knowledge about you, your project, and your market, we can design solutions that are fit for your purpose. And because accountability is in our nature, we meet our commitments. 

Better by design, better by nature, better for you in every corner of the country.

Dependable. Collaborative. Thorough.

“I add value by conducting thorough due diligence, applying my quantitative mindset and communicating openly.”

Stephen joined the First National team in September 2021. He completed a co-op placement with the Commercial Servicing team from September to December 2020. Stephen prides himself on his commitment to getting the job done in a timely and honest manner. Collaboration is a key part of that. He works openly with all parties to deliver transparent, consistent and quality work. When it comes to research and valuation, Stephen considers all options and exhausts all possibilities to find the right solution.

When he’s not adding value for First National borrowers, Stephen enjoys playing golf, watching sports and honing his skills in the kitchen.
