With almost 30 years of experience in the mortgage industry, President of Yhard Mortgages, Brian Yhard, has built his business based on knowledge, experience, trust and values.

Since opening Yhard Mortgages in 2009, Brian has quickly established himself as one of the leading mortgage brokers in the Halifax Regional Municipality thanks to his genuine client-focused approach and his expertise in the mortgage industry. By working with 35+ mortgage companies across Canada that specialize in all different mortgage products, Brian has helped hundreds of Canadians to arrange their mortgages.

By keeping an open dialogue between he and his clientele long after the initial mortgage is complete, Brian is often able to make them aware of lowering rate environments. It’s this type of commitment that has helped Brian build Yhard Mortgages into the trusted company it is today.


I have had the pleasure of working with Brian a couple of times now. On both occasions he has been extremely professional and diligent from the first meeting to completion. His product and business knowledge always makes you feel at ease and his desire to do what is right for you is refreshing in this day and age. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone who is thinking of buying, selling or refinancing.
