About

With over 40 years of experience in the financial services sector, Helen West, Accredited Mortgage Professional, delivers intelligent, personalized banking and mortgage solutions to investors, families, and business owners across Canada.

After spending a decade with Canada’s major banks, Helen recognized that her clients needed a more tailored and flexible approach to accessing credit and mortgages. She found this with Neighbourhood Mortgage Source, Dominion Lending Centres. For the past 15 years, working alongside Dominion Lending Centres and their network of more than 50 lending institutions, Helen has been able to offer customized solutions and a level of personal service that simply isn’t possible within a traditional banking environment.

Helen has helped countless clients transform their finances and achieve their goals. When she works for you, her priority is to ensure you are informed, empowered, and confident—so you feel fully in control of your finances and your future.

Originally from the island of Guernsey in the English Channel, Helen began her career in financial services at just 16 years old and spent 13 years as a money trader. After relocating to Canada 25 years ago, she worked with several of the country’s largest banks as an Account Manager, Investment Advisor, and Small Business Advisor. Her experience spans a diverse range of clients, from multi-million-dollar portfolios seeking tax-efficient strategies to young families purchasing their first home.

Whether you are buying your first home, purchasing a second property, refinancing, rebuilding bruised credit through alternative lenders, accessing short-term private financing, leveraging home equity, or exploring mortgage options with no monthly payments, Helen will create a clear plan and connect you with the financial institutions best suited to your unique needs, family, and lifestyle.

Helen is also passionate about supporting the small business community and assisting business owners with their financial goals. After 28 years in Barrie and Muskoka, she continues to actively network within the local business community, offering trusted advice and financial solutions. Thanks to her exceptional customer service, strong business acumen, and consistent results, Helen ranks among the top 2% of Mortgage Agents in Ontario with Dominion Lending Centres.

Outside of work, Helen, her New Brunswicker husband, and their four children enjoy spending as much time as possible outdoors, exploring Ontario and Western Canada.
