With a name like Jean-Guy (pronounced Zhaun-Gee), you’d think I was born and raised in Quebec...however, I’d only been once, and it was only for a few hours (I know that sounds weird and no it wasn’t on a flight layover...call me to find out what happened!)

I was born and raised in Bonnyville Alberta on a large acreage where I was taught the small town values of integrity, loyalty and to treat others as you would want to be treated.

I moved to Red Deer in 2001 when I was offered a position as a Territory Account Executive for an automotive lender out of the United States that just set up shop in Canada, which essentially meant that I taught automotive dealerships how to use their products. This only lasted a short period as that lender left the country due to large financial losses because of the short recession that “9-11” caused in the US, and they had to cut costs.

With all of the strong contacts I made at all of the dealerships in Red Deer, I was well sought after, and ended up working at a couple of different dealerships where I made lasting relationships with many clients whom I’m still in contact with today and whom I’ve helped many become homeowners!

I finally made the decision to obtain my Mortgage Associates license in 2006 after many years of helping my clients finance and/or rebuild their lives via an automotive loan. For many it was the possibility of re-establishing their credit so that they can move forward to purchase their larger dream- homeownership.

The automotive industry is where I found my passion, the Mortgage Profession is where I now pursue it...and it is -To help people obtain their dreams! I do this by educating my clients throughout all of the steps of a mortgage whether it be purchasing your first or last home, or refinancing it. It doesn’t end there, as one takes a journey through homeownership, one doesn’t realize all of the little things that go along with owning a home.

Self Employment has long been a pursuit of mine and as of 2007 I’ve become a partner at Regional Mortgage Corporation. Being a partner at Regional Mortgage allows me to give back to the community in many different ways, not only by helping all of my fantastic clients obtain their dream homes. Being associated with such a great group at Regional Mortgage gives me a chance to provide the quality of service every wants but seldom receives as we go above and beyond to make your experience one that you’ll never forget and you’ll tell all of your friends about.

Regional Mortgage isn’t just about mortgages, the old boys here have started something that the younger generation has to keep moving, and I’m talking about the Golf/Build a Kid to Cure. Regional Mortgage and many other great people founded the golf tournament in 2001 and the Build a kid to Cure which began in 2007. Both of these charities contribute directly to children’s cancer research and also other various local charities in the Red Deer region. To date, we’ve helped raise over $800,000.00 for these charities.

Personally, I spend a lot of time with my beautiful wife Mari and son Hudson. We spend a lot of time during the week at parks chasing Hudson, or simply going for a walk or bike ride. On weekends, we enjoy golfing, skiing, hiking on mountain adventures and or lazing around with friends.

Organizations I am involved with:

Golf/Build a kid to Cure-Director (Charity)
Canadian Home Builders Association- Central Alberta –Director (non profit)
