“Before my marriage and the purchase of our marital home, I had only rented and did not remember the homebuying/mortgage process. I felt alone and was afraid I was going to lose something that provided stability for me and for my children. I was already losing what I had envisioned as my future, so having someone support me with compassion during that time gave me much more than just financial information.

At a time when comfort doesn't feel easy to come by, it was a genuine comfort working with someone who wasn't just trying to get my signature but was actually trying to make me as safe as possible in my future. The care taken to inform me of options and repercussions was greatly appreciated and helped me feel more confident in my decisions. 

It was surprising to find how reassuring it was having someone who understands that your need goes deeper than "I'd like to buy a house". Being asked "what are you afraid of" was part of the discovery process, and helped guide my decisions.

Don't panic and don't assume anything. Reach out, accept help, discover what's possible and take control of this piece of your life.”

“Securing a mortgage and separating from a spouse are daunting each on their own. Navigating those processes concurrently is likely unmanageable for most people without someone like Sabeena. She is well-versed on both fronts and magically turned an overwhelming situation into a revitalizing one. Sabeena clearly understood the complex technical details while taking a holistic approach that considered the variety of influences – financial, emotional, social, and practical – that factored into my transitional experience of buying a home and relocating a split family.

I am grateful that I found Sabeena and cannot imagine how I would have gotten to where I am now without her thoughtful guidance and professional acuity.”

“Working with Sabeena during one of the most stressful periods of my life made an extraordinary difference. My divorce situation was extremely complicated, emotionally charged, and financially delicate. I work daily with many mortgage brokers professionally.

I chose Sabeena, and it was one of the best decisions I made. My mortgage situation during my divorce was exceptionally complex, and I was nearly exhausted by endless lawyer and accountant conversations. I initially went to her for mortgage help, but I received so much more, more than I even knew I needed.

The advice and perspective she offered went far beyond rates and mortgage products. She brought clarity, calm, and strategic guidance during a time when every decision felt overwhelming. She combines exceptional technical knowledge with real-world understanding and empathy. She never rushed the process, never added pressure, and consistently made me feel understood and supported.

What truly stood out was her ability to understand not just the financing, but the human side of the situation. This is exactly what I needed, and I'm deeply grateful for her approach and the care she gave me.”

“Working with Sabeena during a very complex life transition made a significant difference for me. Navigating major financial decisions while going through a separation can feel overwhelming, and what stood out most was her ability to combine deep expertise with genuine care and steadiness.

She helped me think through my options clearly, explained the implications of different decisions, and ensured I felt confident moving forward. That clarity and support reduced a great deal of stress at a time when many things felt uncertain.

For anyone going through a separation and facing financial decisions about housing, having a knowledgeable professional who understands the broader context of what you are dealing with is invaluable.

Thank you again for the support during that time.”

“Congrats Sabeena, you make a huge difference in people’s lives and you give because you care. I don’t know how you do it  with your busy schedule but somehow you still make time for the people who need you. I know it truly made a world of difference to me when we spoke on the phone. I knew that I could share my story with you and that you’d be supportive and understanding. Not sure if I have thanked you for that yet.

So, here it is; THANK YOU. I’ll forever be grateful for you jumping in when I needed it the most. I said this before but not only are you inspirational to me but you are also incredibly authentic as well. When you speak it shows that it comes from the heart and people can feel that.”

— Sincerely, AW

“During my divorce, my biggest fear was losing our family home and having my son leave his friends and neighbourhood. Sabeena was instrumental in helping me secure the mortgage and complete the buyout, but more than that, Sabeena helped me believe it was possible during one of the lowest points of my life.”
