Does 8Twelve have mortgage agents licensed in Abbotsford?

Yes. 8Twelve Mortgage is licensed in British Columbia and works with Abbotsford homeowners and buyers across purchases, renewals, refinances and debt consolidation, with access to more than 65 lenders rather than a single bank's rate sheet.

Is a mortgage broker better than my bank in Abbotsford?

A bank can only offer its own products. A broker shops the same application across banks, credit unions, monoline lenders and alternative lenders, then presents the best approval. For Abbotsford borrowers with self-employment income, rental income or a thin credit file, that breadth is usually the difference between an approval and a decline.
