The Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO) is warning consumers that Cretus Capital Inc. (www.findthedollars.com) is not licensed to do mortgage brokering business in Ontario.

If consumers arrange a mortgage from a mortgage brokerage, broker or agent that is not licensed in the province, they are not protected under the Mortgage Brokerages, Lenders and Administrators Act, 2006

, which holds Ontario’s mortgage brokerages, administrators, brokers and agents to specific standards.

FSCO’s website contains a list of all mortgage brokerages, administrators, brokers and agents licensed to do business in Ontario as well as tips on shopping around for a mortgage.

A licensed Ontario mortgage brokerage, administrator, broker or agent can provide information and advice on the risks involved in borrowing, lending or investing for different mortgage products.
