Dan Eisner

Founder & CEO

Dan Eisner

Founder & CEO

In 2006, Dan launched True North Mortgage in Calgary, Alberta, to give Canadians access to the lowest mortgage rates without all the hassle and game-playing that can occur in this industry. In 2016, he started CMHC-approved lender THINK Financial, becoming the first mortgage brokerage to crack this barrier.

Since then, his visionary leadership has propelled True North to fund over $20B in Canadian mortgages, delivering competitive rates and a transparent, hassle-free mortgage service — online and in stores across Canada.

Dan has also served as a founding board member of Odyssey Trust, an OSFI-regulated trust company. Before starting True North, he earned his MBA from the Richard Ivey School of Business and gained valuable experience consulting in the IT industry.
