Who is Bak

I was born in Quebec City, spent my early childhood in Montreal, and today I call Ottawa home. Wherever life has taken me, I have tried to stay close to the people and the things I love.

Like every Habs fan who grew up on the ice, I dreamed of playing in the NHL. Some dreams change shape as you grow up, but that one has never fully left me.

I got into banking at a young age, and finance and lending have been part of my life ever since. After more than a decade in the mortgage industry, I still enjoy the moment a plan comes together for someone.

Commercial real estate is the business that gave my family a good life, and I have never forgotten that. My hope now is to guide people who want to follow the same path and build something of their own.

Making commercial financing work for you.

I work with homeowners, investors, business owners, and developers to find the right financing for where they are and where they want to go. Especially when things aren’t quite as straightforward.

With over a decade in the business, I’ve built a strong network of lenders and professionals I can turn to when a situation needs a little more thought, creativity, or experience.

I’ve always believed that good business starts with good relationships. I take the time to listen, understand the bigger picture, and figure things out with you, not just for you. Sometimes that means finding the right mortgage. Sometimes it means finding a completely different solution.

I’m not interested in making every conversation about a transaction. I’d rather build relationships with good people, do good work, and be someone you know you can call when you need help.

What I finance

Multi-unit residential, mixed-use, commercial plexes, land acquisition, construction, and bridge financing.

There is always a solution

Every client has their own goals and needs. No matter the project, I am committed to creating a solution tailored to yours.

A relationship built to last

As your advisor, I am here to guide you through the full journey of investing in commercial real estate, from your first deal to every decision that follows.

Sport did not just shape my game. It shaped my life.

Hockey is in my blood. I have played it and watched it for as long as I can remember, but the game gave me far more than fun on the ice. It taught me about teamwork and leadership, about being coachable, and about the determination and dedication it takes to keep showing up. Those lessons still shape how I work and how I treat people.

I have never been a one sport guy either. Soccer, volleyball, basketball, tennis, badminton, golf, and go karting have all had their turn, and each one added something to who I am. I love a good competition, but I love what happens around it just as much: the laughs, the people, and being fully in the moment. Through all of it, hockey has been the one constant in my life.

On the ice I play defence, and I like to think of myself as an analytic defenceman who reads the play and thinks a step ahead. When my playing days are over, I hope to move behind the bench and coach. Maybe I can do both. We will see.

For the love of the game.
