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.

Resourceful. Results Oriented. Dependable.
“I add value by applying what I’ve learned in customer service roles to build long-term relationships with clients, prioritizing their needs consistently.”
Dev joined the First National team in 2015 as part of Commercial Servicing. In 2020, he transitioned into Commercial Origination as an Analyst. When working with clients, Dev believes it is important to take responsibility for solutions. When problems arise, he steps up to devise and present solutions that can deliver desired results. A critical thinker, Dev’s approach focuses on weighing various possible options or scenarios, while always considering their impact on client needs. Efficiency is important to him. In managing the lifecycle of a deal, Dev emphasizes dependability and transparency, so clients always know how deals are progressing.
When he’s not adding value for First National borrowers, Dev stays fit with weightlifting and boxing/MMA, cheers on the Raptors, works on his car and stays up to date on the economy and industry.
