Canadian Mortgage Award for Broker of the Year – Commercial, a recognition that reflects not only a banner year of business growth but also his unwavering commitment to service, strategy, and mentorship.
After earning his finance degree, Peter began his career in 1995, rising quickly through the ranks at Desjardins Group. Over the next two decades, he held pivotal roles, including Business Development Director and General Manager at a Desjardins Business Centre, before joining National Bank as a Commercial Development Director. By 2015, he had shifted his focus entirely to the mortgage space. Bringing to the commercial brokering space a sharp acumen and a relentless drive, Peter has distinguished himself as one of Canada’s most respected brokers.
At the helm of Multi-Prêts Commercial, Peter has grown more than just numbers − he’s cultivated a culture rooted in transparency, credibility, and tailored advice. In 2024 alone, his individual business volume soared to $278 million, marking a 37.5 percent year-over-year increase. His team’s commercial division also saw unprecedented expansion, with total loan volume reaching $483 million, a 47 percent leap that underscores both operational efficiency and market demand.
Behind these numbers is a leader who doesn’t just close deals but builds capability. In 2024, Peter hired four new brokers and expanded his underwriting team to 10 professionals. He takes pride in a coaching-first approach, instilling in his team the same exacting standards he holds for himself. This dedication to mentorship has paid off: Multi-Prêts client surveys consistently highlight Peter and his team, praising their expert guidance, responsiveness, and professionalism that goes well beyond industry norms.
What truly sets Peter apart, however, is his philosophy. “It’s an honour to be chosen by our clients,” he often says. “They deserve nothing less than the best.” This client-centric mindset permeates every aspect of his work, from structuring complex financing solutions across Quebec and Ontario to ensuring each deal is executed with precision and integrity.
As the commercial landscape grows more competitive and complex, Peter’s continuing success stands as an example of what’s possible in the space. For brokers looking to elevate their practice, his story offers both inspiration and a clear roadmap: build trust, invest in your people, and never lose sight of the client experience.
