Compeer Financial - Ottawa Erica W: Compeer Financial is awful and only willing to help you if youre a farmer who make millions. We have 6 acres but are not farmers therefore they wont help us. We have a mortgage with them and have a TON of equity but because were both self employed (for over 10 years with successful businesses) (arent farmers self employed?) were apparently high risk because our credit isnt great and our daughter has had medical problems so we have debt.. even though we have equity, they wont help us. We cant get a loan anywhere else, no other banks do mortgages for agriculture zoned properties. It should be illegal for a bank to not let you take an equity loan on your property if you have it available!!!
