Welcome to Lead to Close:

The Mortgage Professionals Podcast featuring authentic and real conversations amongst Canadian mortgage pros. Hosted by industry leaders Greg Williamson and James Loewen, with unfiltered opinions and no topic off limits, these are the conversations you wished the industry was having.

In today’s episode we’re joined by Dan MacDonald, the co-founder of Ownwell. His company was created in March 2024 with a mission of helping brokers empower their clients to build wealth through homeownership. Why does this matter? Because staying in meaningful contact with your clients makes all the difference in building lasting relationships.

Using Ownwell can help brokers stay top of mind so that when life changes for their clients, which it inevitably will, they will want to reach out to their broker again. It can also plant a seed of inspiration for homeowners to buy a new home.
