"It was GREAT dealing with Twyla. We thought we would only be approved for $200,000 but our dream house was $220,000. Within two days of first talking to Twyla, she got us a preapproval for $220,000 and we were able to buy the house we loved. We would and do recommend Twyla to anyone. She made our dreams come true! Thanks Twyla!"

"We decided to move to Lethbridge on the spur of the moment. I was able to transfer my Calgary based job to Lethbridge. First step done. We packed everything up in the largest U-Haul and traveled the 2.5 hour driver. We were planning on renting since we didn't believe we could be approved for a mortgage. However we ran into the largest problem you could have when moving to a new city on a spur of the moment: EVERYTHING WAS RENTED!!!! We didn't take into account Lethbridge is a "school-town". The college (LCC), the university (UofL), and other post secondary schools. So there are a lot of "renters". We were ready to pull the plug and go back to Calgary.

We parked the car right after picking up another Herald and skipped to the classified. Then my wife said "Lets go and try them". She pointed to MBT Mortgages. I looked at her and said no. She walked in the office and I lit up my 4th cigarette while waiting for my wife to come back out with a sad look on her face. Instead she came back out with a huge smile and signaled me to come in with her.

I met Twyla Fisher, owner and manager of MBT Mortgages. We found her very understanding and very kind. We told her all of our finances and where our credit stands before we signed the "permission" for a credit check. From what we told her she said we have a good chance at our very first place. I thought to myself "Yeah right-she's just being nice." Nope. She was dead on. She got back to us later on that afternoon stating we have been pre-approved for a mortgage up to a certain amount, which was a reasonable amount with a lot of 'potentials' on the current market. She put us in touch with a realtor she has had experience with and we went house shopping. A few weeks later we signed the final copies of a brand-spankin'-new mortgage for a house we absolutely loved.

Dealing with MBT was a great experience. Twyla was not only understanding and very kind but she was an extremely hard worker. She bent over backwards over and over making summersaults to get us our house. We ran into a few brick walls while dealing with the Lender but it's almost she was expecting it and was right on top of the problem and had ideas and solutions for the problem within a few minutes. She is so easy to talk to. I remember I was getting frustrated a few times and she calmed me down and we dealt with the issue. She's smart and slick. She knows how to do business. Sounds like a great gal, eh?

If ever I need to buy another house, Twyla will be the person to call. Once we moved in I went back to full-time work and became very busy. We hadn't spoken with each other since we moved in but she called a couple of weeks later to see how we're doing. She also had prepared a folder with all the information we will ever need regarding our new house and our mortgage. We set a date to pick up our folder and we had a surprise. Not only is the folder made into a presentation-like format which makes it so much easier to flip through it, but she had developed a funky picture of our new house and placed it in a beautiful frame for us. A gift for our first new house. We were impressed."

Need a mortgage broker? Go to Twyla Fisher. "

"This year, my husband and I started pondering whether or not we would be approved to buy a house. Our first instinct was that there was no way we could get one, as I had just finished paying my student loans off and my husband was still paying his and had just purchased a brand new car. However, we filled out an online application with a major financial institution and were surprised that we indeed were preapproved for a substantial mortgage for first-time homebuyers. However, neither of us felt comfortable using an impersonal institution, so we were referred to Twyla through a mutual friend.

Using Twyla as our mortgage broker was probably the best thing we could have done. Being first-time home buyers, we were very uneducated on the whole buying process and the steps that needed to be taken. Twyla worked with us to get us a preapproval and was very available to answer any questions we had... and believe me, there were a lot of them.

When we fell in love with the home we now own and put an offer in for it, it happened to be Thanksgiving Sunday. Twyla had always said to let her know whenever we put an offer in on a place, so I sent her a quick email. Within minutes she had called me back to talk about the house, what we should do and everything else that comes with buying a home.

Throughout our dealings with Twyla, she was courteous, VERY informative and extremely patient. There were times where we would be freaking out, not sure about what we should be doing and who we should be talking to about the house transaction. Whether or not the matter was of Twyla's concern, she always pointed us in the right direction and kept us on the proper path. In fact, there was a time where she emailed out of the blue to ask whether we had heard from our lawyer yet, and since we hadn't, she suggested we call them up to see what was going on. Thank goodness she did, because they had us filed as refinancing our house, not buying a new one! I would not hesitate to recommend her services to any potential home buyer. Plus, she just sent us a cool black and white framed photo of our house with the folder full of mortgage documents!! Talk about service!!"

"Debbie was always very professional in the handling of my trial to get a mortgage. After being told by the bank that NO ONE was lending in small towns and that I should lower the price & sell right now, Debbie went out of her way and got me the mortgage that I needed with great terms and exceptional rates. JOB WELL DONE. Bouquet of the month to Debbie. Thank you very much. "
