Dominion Lending Centres

For several months to possibly years, Alex Khalil continues to abuse the Craigslist site by posting multiple ads daily in the "Real Estate FOR SALE" category...yet he is not selling a property but promoting a service...Craigslist is not intended for Viagra ad abuse and his bad posting habits are the same as a spammer...purposefully abusing the sites privileges and basically making an ass out of Dominion Lending Services in general...if I am ever in the market for a mortgage, I would not consider using Dominion because of the unprofessional bad seed you allowed into your company... His purposefully miscategorized ads do get flagged down by the audience but he continues to purposefully abuse the Terms Of Use...in my opinion, this behaviour does not bode well as an ambassador to Dominion Lending The following is a reminder to ad posters before posting an ad on Craigslist Real Estate For sale category...which Alex Khalil purposefully ignores Each real estate for sale posting must be 100% about a single, specific, currently available property. Lead capture, loans/financing, services, offers to buy, lists/directories, and/or driving users to a website are not allowed. Please do include: all relevant information about the specific property you are selling multiple high-quality photographs of the specific property on offer street address, and location on craigslist map Please do NOT include: cartoon or graphic images, photographs of yourself or other people links to "more information" elsewhere photos with "click below," contact info, or other writing search links, or information about multiple properties advertisement for services of any kind, including financing or loan information advice about buying and/or selling and/or market conditions

Use extra caution when working with the Brokerage in Markham Ontario. Called the head office to make a complaint regarding our extra fees ($$$), We were advised to speak with the owner of the local Brokerage in Markham, Ontario. ONLY to be tossed over to some Paralegal. Folks USE a lawyer to review all your paper work before you sign ANY documents. WARNINGS …..

I would absolutely NOT recommend Jeff Mayer or his company The Mayer Group, a representative of Dominion Lending Centres if you are considering a mortgage broker. We trusted Jeff when he suggested we consider a lender, Serm Investments as an option to consolidate some debt and take out some home equity to put our daughter through her first year of university. We decided after having signed off on some preliminary documents that we were not at all comfortable with Sam Schaffran, President of Serm Investments after some offensive comments he made during our meeting in addition to seeing some negative information online. We made Jeff aware of this decision immediately after having met Mr. Schaffran and Jeff assured us he would find an alternate lender and we moved on. Some days later we received notice that Serm Investments had filed a lawsuit against me and my wife in small claims court looking to collect fees totaling $5500.00. We were shocked as we had notified our broker, Jeff Mayer well within the time allotted to do so under the mortgage broker’s act and since Jeff did not present us with disclosure under the mortgage brokers act there was not a legitimate mortgage in place. The court action wasted days of our time as we had to go through two settlement hearings and an entire day in court to defend ourselves. On the date of the hearing, Jeff Mayer was called as witness on behalf of the plaintiff, Serm Investments and proceeded to side on behalf of Sam Schaffran who was acting as his own counsel for Serm Investments. One could clearly see the two had conspired to tell a story that was fabricated in an effort to win the case and ultimately be awarded $5500.00 in fees and damages. In the end the Judge saw through this elaborate effort calling both Jeff Mayer and Sam Schaffran evasive and less than truthful in their testimony. The judge sided with us and stated that Serm Investments had lost the case based on a litany of inconsistencies and improper understanding of the laws by which they are governed and the act that regulates their industry. We were awarded costs in the amount of $400 to cover our expenses which as you can imagine doesn’t begin to compensate us for the time, effort and resources that went into having to defend ourselves in this lawsuit. We will in all likelihood need to file suit against Serm Investments to collect this money as it is considered costs and not a judgment against them. This action took place on Friday April 12, 2013 and in an effort to keep the public informed as to the nature of these individuals I have ordered a court transcript of the proceeding that I will be posting in its entirety on this and other online review sites when I receive it within the next 30 days. I have also been encouraged by my counsel and will also be presenting the transcript to the Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO) where a full investigation of this action will take place. Don’t make the same mistake we did.
