"Since getting to know Dan McLaren around 1990 I’ve witnessed his seamless and successful transition from corporate banker to entrepreneurial leadership in the areas of insurance, mortgages and community involvement. My several efforts over those thirty years to lure Dan to Vancouver were in vain. He’s a steadfast, dyed-in-the-wool Prince George fellow. Nowhere is this more evident than Dan’s creation of and maintenance of “The Commonwealth Cup”, perhaps PG’s most iconic charitable event"
Robert E L Trowbridge, Director of Philanthropy Videre Financiers Inc.
"I have been working with Commonwealth Financial since they opened in 1995. A great team that works hard for their clients. I am very happy to recommend Commonwealth."

our Process
Client Discovery
It all starts with a call. Whether you want to buy a home, protect your family or invest for the future, we should talk. It can be in person (which we prefer) or over the phone. If you’re super eager to get into a new house, click the link and we’ll get your pre-approved right away, then we can talk.
Product Review
No 2-clients are alike. During our review we will gather enough information to make thoughtful recommendations based on your mortgage, insurance and investments. In almost all cases we will put together a personalized Discussion Paper that summarizes your current situation and your recommendations for next-steps.
Discuss strategies
After we explain our recommendations, we listen. If you approve, we move the plan forward. It’s that simple.
