Advice before the transaction

Your goals shape
the financing.

A mortgage that works for today’s purchase also needs to account for your other properties, monthly payments and future choices. We explain the trade-offs before helping you arrange the financing you choose.

People behind the advice

Specialist knowledge.
A coordinated team.

Dalia Barsoum founded Streetwise Mortgages in 2011 after a career in banking and wealth management. Her focus on investor financing shaped an approach that considers a property alongside the plans and finances of the person buying it.

Our advisors, underwriting and support staff bring that approach to the work of assessing options, preparing applications and arranging financing.

Client testimonial

“Streetwise Mortgages has always found me financing options to enable me to continue to grow my investment portfolio. The team is very knowledgeable, their advice is highly informative, and I fully recommend their services and support.”
Frank H.

Client testimonial

“As a real estate investor I appreciate that Streetwise Mortgage agents are very knowledgeable in this area. Dalia offered a strategizing session with me to explore how I can maximize my mortgage capacity and avoid capping out too soon. Elena was very helpful and patient with us as we refinanced our primary residence mortgage. I recommend that you definitely consider Streetwise in your search for a mortgage broker.”
Melissa S.

Client testimonial

“Dalia and her team at Streetwise Mortgages are top notch! With precision and strategy, they are helping me finance my next three deals. We just completed the first, a complex 4-plex transaction. Despite the complexity and the high price tag, Raheleh was able to secure a fantastic low-downpayment mortgage that left over $350k in my pocket for other investments compared to the loan my bank was offering! Talia kept everything organized from beginning to end. The Floify software they use really helped the process and made it easy to track which documents I had submitted and which were still outstanding. I can't recommend them enough.”
