Happy clients

Joel and Ascension Finance were extremely helpful and informative every step of the way. They communicated well helping us understand our borrowing situation and we ultimately achieved our goal of purchasing a new property. There broking service was particularly helpful with securing a good interest rate especially with myself being self-employed.

If you are seeking a mortgage broker that can support you with guidance and expert market knowledge, I highly recommend Ascension Finance. I had an excellent experience with Joel Archer. Through his tireless efforts, he obtained pre-approval finance for a property purchase. The entire process was handled efficiently and effectively by Joel. It was a great result, and I would like to thank Joel and his team for their efforts.
Brock McGilvray
What a fantastic, smooth, and engaging experience we have just had with Joel. From our first meeting, to the last follow up phone call, our journey with Joel has been relaxed, easy and informative. With so many options on the market at the moment, Joel found us the perfect package, that is already proving to be more than we imagined and we can see our new mortgage working its magic already. With bigger plan for the future, we will certainly be back to see Joel in the coming years.
