About Gold Lion Mortgages

Gold Lion Mortgages is a Calgary-based mortgage office built for the borrowers traditional banks struggle to serve: self-employed business owners, corporate entities and HoldCos, real estate investors, first‑time buyers, and newcomers to Canada.

Powered by MCC Elevo Mortgages (a member of DLCG), we have access to over 60 lenders—ranging from major banks and monolines to B lenders and private capital. Because the vast majority of our business comes from client referrals and repeat relationships, every file that crosses your desk represents someone’s trust on the line. We operate as a agile, high-performing team, and we are adding a Senior Mortgage Underwriter to own the credit side of our deals.

Position Overview

You will own the credit lifecycle of every file from initial document intake straight through to funding, freeing our brokers to focus on client advice and business growth.

You will analyze income, credit, down payment, and collateral to match each deal with the right lender and product, packaging files so they get approved on the first submission. Expect a steady volume of complex files, including self‑employed income,



corporate/HoldCo structures, rental portfolios, bank‑statement programs, and alternative lending scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

- 1. Client Intake & Document Auditing

Conduct or review initial client intake details to verify financial profiles, clarify lending needs, and set expectations.

Request, track, and audit complete document packages (T1 Generals, NOAs, corporate financial statements, pay stubs, bank statements, gift letters, purchase contracts, and property schedules).

Trace down payment sources meticulously (90‑day history, large deposits, gifts, RRSP/FHSA withdrawals).

- 2. File Underwriting, Analysis & Deal Structuring

Deliver on our client promise: a fully underwritten pre‑approval within 24 business hours of receiving a complete document package.

Calculate qualifying income across complex scenarios: self‑employed (add‑backs, corporate tax returns, financial statements), rental income (add‑backs, offsets, T776), commission, support, and bank‑statement programs.

Run GDS/TDS ratios at stress‑test rates while navigating individual lender ceilings, proxies, and exception guidelines.

Analyze credit bureau reports to understand the narrative behind the score, identify risks, and establish mitigants.

Match files across A, B,



and private channels, defining clear paths for alternative deals to eventually migrate back to prime lending.

Package submissions through Canadian origination systems (e.g., Finmo, Velocity, Filogix Expert) with clear, persuasive notes highlighting deal strengths, risks, and mitigants.

Manage buydown requests, appraisal/valuation strategies, and lender exception approvals.

Work directly with lender underwriters and Business Development Managers (BDMs) to negotiate terms and push files through efficiently.

Clear all lender conditions within 24 to 48 hours of receipt.

Review commitment letters line‑by‑line to ensure terms align with client expectations.

Maintain complete data integrity and real‑time status updates in our CRM (e.g., BluMortgage / Zoho) so clients, realtors, and lawyers remain fully informed.

Drive files smoothly through approval, broker‑complete, and final funding.

- 5. Compliance, Quality & Process Building

Complete mandatory FINTRAC/AML identity verifications, KYC checks, and deal red‑flag audits.

Turn recurring workflows into checklists, templates, and short training guides to build operational scale.

Serve as the second set of eyes on hard files, offering constructive feedback and viable alternative structures when a deal is at risk.

Mentor junior team members on document analysis and file prep as the brokerage expands.
