ABOUT PETER CARSTENSEN
BROKER/OWNER, AMP
Born and raised in Duncan, BC, Peter is proud to be building Bayside Mortgage Solutions in his hometown in addition to the place his mortgage career started: Calgary, AB and the surrounding areas. Peter joined the mortgage industry in 2004 after leaving his chemical engineer technology career to join his wife who founded the mortgage brokerage a year prior. The skills that he acquired in his previous career have helped him achieve success in his mortgage business today; analytical thinking has been very useful in identifying and incorporating trends to continually grow his client referral base.
For the past fifteen years, Peter has been building Bayside Mortgage Solutions in Airdrie, Alberta where Bayside Mortgage Solutions was awarded “Best of Airdrie” two years in a row. He is excited to expand his business here in the Cowichan Valley and looks forward to growing future relationships in Duncan in order to build the professional reputation he holds in Alberta.
Outside of work, Peter spends his time training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and is interested in health and wellness so that he can maximize his time in and outside of the office.

Peter & Jacquie make buying a home a stress free experience! They are good at what they do and strive to get the best mortgage rates possible and the most suitable mortgage for each individual! They don’t stop until they are sure that you have received the best mortgage possible! They are fun and easy to deal with! I would recommend them to everyone and we would not and could not ever imagine using anyone else!

Peter went above and beyond to help us with getting our mortgage figured out. Even after everything was done, he was still willing to answer my questions and contact financial institutions for me. Thank you so much for all your help!

Peter helped me with my financing on my first house when I lived in Calgary, Alberta. He was more than great help. His service was exceptional and made the process very easy. Then when I move to Red Deer and was porting my mortgage, the bank was making it difficult, Peter helped me out and identified the issue in minutes, which the bank had not identify in the weeks. He received no compensation for this, but went above and beyond to help me out. Unfortunately, when I moved to Vancouver Island Peter was not licenses here, so I went through a bank again and had similar issues. It will not happen again. I will be looking to Peter when my mortgage comes up for renewal. His patience, commitment and service is top notch!

We relied on Peter’s advice and guidance which proved to be totally accurate. We have already recommended him to friends and family when they require mortgage and financial advice.
