Full Story:
The Dave Butler Mortgage Team were named to CMP Magazine's top 50 brokers in Canada. It was the first time that the team had been honored with the award but certainly won't be the last. The team came in at an impressive 17th place and were the highest ranked Mortgage Intelligence Team on the list.
Survey submissions were collated, and figures checked and re-checked, before the first annual CMP Top 50 Brokers list made its debut. Cindy Freiman and Vanessa Chris unveiled the results
CMP is pleased with the response from brokers/agents across the country who submitted surveys for the first annual CMP Top 50 Brokers. The list was compiled from individual broker/agent submissions and, therefore, does not represent every broker/agent across Canada but, rather, offers a good cross-section of the industry.
We recognize that volume is just one measurement for success in this industry, as we commonly report in CMP, but it is an important measurement. If, however, you run your business on a deal-by-deal transactional basis with your target set merely on volume and without showing due care for your customers, then you're not doing anything to push the industry forward as a whole. With this approach, sooner or later, your new business will dry up and you'll have no referrals coming in.
The CMP Top 50 Brokers can be used as a target for other aspiring brokers/agents within the industry. And those appearing on this year's list will have the opportunity to climb to the top, or maintain their top rankings, when we run the survey again next year.
We also acknowledge that it's not entirely accurate to compare brokers/agents working in smaller communities across the country with those in major city centres. But as you'll see, we've done our best to recognize those who generate their business in smaller towns/cities and who also made it as CMP Top 50 Brokers.
Below we have highlighted the most popular product identified by this year's CMP Top 50 Brokers.

CMPhas gone to great lengths to verify figures supplied by every one of our Top 50 Brokers, seeking corroboration with brokerage head offices and lender underwriters. CMP was intent on ensuring the list was as accurate, truthful and precise as possible, and we are confident that we have achieved just that.
The rules and stipulations for submitting a survey were simple: you must be employed as a mortgage broker/agent; the volumes included must have been settled residential sales within the 2007 financial year; and the deals must have been personally originated by the broker/agent (back-office support in processing the loans is acceptable, but no other parties have been paid commission on the deals).
CMP congratulates all of the brokers/agents who submitted an entry. We would also like to thank Genworth Financial Canada for signing on as an official partner to the CMP Top 50 Brokers survey in its first year.
Best of luck to all those who submitted surveys, and don't forget to participate next year!
