Testimonials

https://www.fintracker.ca/index.html#testimonials“Fintracker is one of the best things to hit the Real Estate Market! It’s quick, it’s easy and it’s efficient! A simple scan of a driver’s license or passport, a few clicks and your client ID is either saved or passed on to your office for processing! Anything to make the paper trail easier is a game changer for me! Every Broker in Canada should make this APP mandatory for all agents. No more sloppy handwritten forms, and more importantly, no more missed information for administrative staff. No more chasing agents down in order to finalize a file. This is a No Brainer!” Linda Vanden Broek, Re/Max
https://www.fintracker.ca/index.html#testimonials“We have been using Fintracker for a few months now. The feedback from agents has been very positive. A vast majority of our clients present their driver’s license as a form of ID. The Fintracker App scans the license with ease. The benefits are immediate. As the Compliance Officer, I appreciate having typed forms every time. It’s much cleaner and I can reconcile the forms in a quick and efficient manner. Agents love how fast they can perform this part of their job. We have asked all our agents to use the App.”Leonard Howell – Sam McDadi Real Estate Inc Brokerage
https://www.fintracker.ca/index.html#testimonials“We love Fintracker. It’s easy to use, professional and reduces the administrative burden on our office. Integrating this app into our company was a no brainer.”Alicia Busch, B.A. GRP – The Property Exchange Group Inc.
