Mortgage agent jobs in Nanaimo
Mortgage agent jobs are commission only, with no base salary. In British Columbia, the licence goes through BCFSA and a brokerage licensed there. We sponsor Ontario licences only, under FSRA.
Mortgage Squad Advisors is an Ontario brokerage (FSRA #13737), and the agents we sponsor are licensed in Ontario. If you are based in Nanaimo and hold — or plan to earn — an Ontario mortgage agent licence, the model below is the same one our Ontario agents work: $0 monthly fee for producers, live + virtual training, your own brand leads at full split, and 100+ A/B/private lenders.
What do agents get when they join?
$0 fee for producers
No monthly desk fee for producing agents — your $150/mo is reimbursed when you fund $10M (or 15 deals) in a year.
Your leads + house leads
Leads you generate through your own brand and subdomain are 100% yours at your full split — plus house leads from our brokerage marketing at a 40/60 split on top.
Heavy training
Live and virtual sessions multiple times a week — underwriting, lender programs, and lead-gen.
Mentorship
A seasoned broker manager and team behind every file you submit.
100+ lenders
Full access to A, B, and private lenders — including the specialists most banks can't match.
AI + technology
Maya, our client-facing AI assistant, and Harvey, our back-office file tool, take the admin off your plate so you can spend your time with clients.
Free cards + headshots
Professional headshots and business cards to launch your personal brand.
Brand + lead-gen help
Marketing, lender presentations, and a special underwriting course to grow your book.
How licensing works if you are outside Ontario
- 1. Decide where you will be licensed. A British Columbia licence runs through BCFSA and a brokerage licensed in British Columbia; we sponsor Ontario licences, under FSRA.
- 2. For an Ontario licence, complete the FSRA-approved mortgage agent (Level 1) course and exam, then apply to us for sponsorship.
- 3. Complete our onboarding + training, get your lender codes, and start writing Ontario deals with mentorship behind you.

Do mortgage agent jobs in Nanaimo pay a salary?+
Mortgage agent jobs are commission only, with no base salary. In British Columbia, the licence goes through BCFSA and a brokerage licensed there. We sponsor Ontario licences only, under FSRA.
How do I become a mortgage agent in Nanaimo?+
In British Columbia, you complete the course and exam approved by BCFSA (BC Financial Services Authority) and are then sponsored by a brokerage licensed in British Columbia. Mortgage Squad Advisors sponsors agents under its Ontario FSRA brokerage licence (#13737), so we can sponsor an Ontario licence — not a British Columbia one.
What does it cost to join Mortgage Squad?+
There is no monthly fee for producing agents. The $150/month is fully reimbursed once you fund $10 million (or complete 15 funded deals) in a calendar year — so for active agents it's effectively $0. No franchise or desk fees.
Do you provide leads to agents?+
Yes — two ways. Leads you generate through your own brand and subdomain are 100% yours at your full split. On top of that, we hand you house leads from our own brokerage marketing at a 40/60 split (you/brokerage) — extra deals you wouldn't otherwise have, never distributed by seniority. We also help you generate your own through marketing, your personal brand, and lender presentations.
What training and support do new agents get?+
Live + virtual training multiple times a week, one-on-one mentorship, a dedicated underwriting course, lead-generation coaching, and 24/7 communication. New agents in Nanaimo are never on their own.
What lenders will I have access to?+
Our full network of 100+ lenders — the big banks, monoline A-lenders, credit unions, alternative/B-lenders, and private/MIC lenders — so you can place Nanaimo files most brokerages would have to turn away.
Which licence would I work under?+
An Ontario one. Mortgage Squad Advisors holds FSRA Brokerage Licence #13737 in Ontario, and the agents we sponsor are licensed by FSRA to arrange Ontario mortgages. Client files outside Ontario are placed by professionals licensed in that province through our partner network.
