MORTGAGE BROKERS SHOW SOCIAL CONSCIENCE THROUGH HABITAT FOR
HUMANITY
September 8, 2011 –
Habitat for Humanity Partners with Mortgage Broker Educator
REMIC
On
Tuesday, August 30, Joe White, President of Real Estate and
Mortgage Institute of Canada (REMIC) and Cain Daniel,
Director of Education and Training with REMIC presented
Habitat for Humanity executive director Mary Bone with a
cheque for $1,000.
This donation is just a kick
off for what's to come.
Established in 2008, REMIC is an educational
organization that provides the course required for mortgage
agents to become licensed in Ontario.
Courses are available online and in-class and
membership is free.
Going forward, a percentage of the proceeds from the
courses will be donated to Habitat for Humanity Durham.
"Mortgage Brokers play an
integral role in the home ownership process, so we think
it's a great fit for REMIC to partner with Habitat for
Humanity to help individuals become homeowners," says Joe.
“It
is with great appreciation that we enter into a partnership
with REMIC, an innovative company willing to show their
social conscience by participating in a new way to raise
funds for our organization," says Mary.
"When Joe White approached our affiliate about
donating a portion of the proceeds from his training
seminars we were absolutely thrilled at the opportunity!
We are able to affect the people we serve with the
help of companies like REMIC.
One hundred percent of every dollar donated to
Habitat for Humanity Durham goes directly to our building
program and our new focus is on CentreTowne in Oshawa.
CentreTowne will see 24 new town homes in the next
few years, making 24 families’ dreams of home ownership come
true. Thank you
for believing that everyone has the right to a safe, decent
home to call their own.”
As Joe adds, “Success is what
REMIC strives to deliver through our innovative courses, and
success is what Habitat for Humanity helps families achieve.
This partnership is undoubtedly destined to have a positive
impact on the lives of many families.”

With an increasing number of brokers moving to increase the time they spend with a lead – a way of courting business in a slower sales environment – a high-volume broker is cautioning them to limit that time to no more than 10 minutes, and not the two or three hours even some veterans now allow for.
