Our team

Better people make better lending

We lend billions of dollars to commercial real estate projects every year. But it’s not just capital that distinguishes us. It’s the empowered nature of our workforce. Our advisors are experienced experts whose sole focus is to deliver financing strategies that enable you to achieve greater success.

Our Better Lending culture – three decades in the making – is built on the skill that comes from pure mortgage lending. Because we start from a position of knowledge about you, your project, and your market, we can design solutions that are fit for your purpose. And because accountability is in our nature, we meet our commitments.

Better by design, better by nature, better for you in every corner of the country.

Insightful. Knowledgeable. Competent.

“I add value by integrating insights about commercial operations (underwriting, funding and loan administration) into how I deliver service and execute on deals.”

Kyle has been a part of the First National team since 2015. He has held several roles in the commercial organization including customer service, servicing specialist and commercial training specialist. He has recently relocated to Vancouver to assist with First National’s west coast expansion, contributing to market strategy, operations and onboarding programs and manuals development. Having broad expertise across commercial operations enables Kyle to proactively intercept any issues that may impede smooth deal execution. He also understands the nuances of Toronto’s and Vancouver’s real estate markets, and integrates those perspectives into how he analyzes trends and identifies growth opportunities.

When he’s not adding value for First National borrowers, Kyle enjoys traveling and outdoor activities including hiking, snowboarding and flag football. He is also a member of the Urban Development Institute (Pacific).
