Zahid Amin
Zahid Amin Mortgage Specialist · Scotiabank

I help Canadians navigate their biggest financial decision, without the stress.

I'm a mortgage specialist at Scotiabank with over 7 years in financial services, available in person, by phone, or virtually. I work with first-time buyers, investors, business owners, and newcomers to Canada across the GTA. Whatever your situation, I'll find a solution that works.

During my time as a Financial Advisor, I realized there's a clear gap in knowledge for young Canadians trying to understand how to manage their personal finances. I took this as an opportunity to create educational content breaking down Canadian finance, from TFSAs to credit scores, I want to help fill the gap that traditional education fails to cover.

Outside of finance, I love photography, cars, trying new tech, and building upon new ideas with AI.
