About UP Lending

Experienced. Strategic. Client First Mortgage Guidance

The way we see lending

At UP Lending, we believe a mortgage should feel clear, supportive, and well thought out. It is not just about rates or paperwork. It is about understanding where you are today and where you want to go next.

With more than 18 years of experience in Canadian lending, founder Mandy Thanawala built UP Lending around listening first. Every recommendation is shaped by your goals, your comfort level, and your long term financial well being.

We take the time to explain your options clearly, answer every question honestly, and guide each step with transparency. Our role is to help you move forward with confidence, knowing your mortgage supports your life, not the other way around.

“We believe great mortgage advice starts with listening, clarity, and trust.”
