Peter Majthenyi AMP

President, Mortgage Planner

After Peter graduated from McMaster University with a degree in Economics, he landed a job with Midland Doherty, which today is known as Merrill Lynch. Mortgage brokering was in its infancy and Peter found it very intriguing. He preferred giving money to clients to invest rather than asking for it to invest. Over the last 18 years he has help thousands realize their dreams of homeownership … and there were no fees for his assistance! Peter’s client base has expanded on the principle “Get by Giving” … help in any way you can and the referrals will follow. His mission is to ensure that his clients are so completely satisfied with his level of service that they will be eager to refer their family, friends, and colleagues. When not occupied with his “Mortgage Planner” responsibilities, Peter enjoys time with his wife Tina and their three boys.
