Creative financing is our business.

BB Custom Credit Counselling and BB Custom Financial Services are Nova Scotian-owned and operated businesses with decades of experience in the credit and financial consulting sector.

Whether you are thinking about buying a home, paying off bills or want to use your home’s equity to make improvements, we are here to help you meet your goals. Consultation is free and confidential, and attending a meeting does not impact your credit rating.

There is a solution to every financial problem.

Financial troubles can have a negative effect on your health, relationships and even your job. You may be fearful of answering the phone or getting your mail. You might choose to ignore the problem until you are forced to deal with it. To avoid these issues, it is important to get help as early as possible.

At BB Custom Credit Counselling we listen to your personal story and propose solutions that are right for your situation, your needs, and your life. Our solutions are specially tailored to give you relief. We are here to listen and to help. We understand what you’re going through. We will help stop your financial pain.

OUR SERVICES

We design financial solutions to provide relief from financial pain.

We offer financial pain relief, no creditor calls, one monthly payment, and you save interest and penalties. We give you empowerment over your finances. Our goal is to build you a strong financial future. Bankruptcy is not the only way to get out from under financial troubles. Our consultation is free and confidential, and attending a meeting does not impact your credit rating.

Existing financial problems affect your chances of getting a mortgage. By looking at what you currently owe, we can help you consolidate credit cards, loans and other debts that increase your chances of securing favourable mortgage terms.

We can help you buy a home or vacation home of your dreams, or add investment property to your retirement portfolio.

Sometimes life throws you a curveball. Non-traditional financing is helpful for those clients with a poor or unfavourable credit history, or unexpected life changes like job changes, health issues, and breakdown of a relationship. Did you know some institutions do not lend to pay off Revenue Canada debt? Private financing can solve this problem.

Private financing can be with a private individual or private company specializing in secured mortgages. The criteria for private borrowing can be more flexible than traditional lending institution policies.

Creative financing is an innovative way to customize unique financial solutions. At BB Custom we know every problem has a solution.

We negotiate to save you interest and penalties, and help you establish a new, affordable repayment plan with your creditors. No more creditor calls, one monthly payment, stress relief and you feel empowered.

Bankruptcy is not the only way to get out from under your financial difficulties. Credit Counselling is an excellent alternative that will not negatively affect your assets.

Debt settlement refers to any process that allows you to get out of debt for less than the full amount you owe. Often you pay a percentage of the balance due. Then the creditor discharges the remaining balance.

We can discuss the benefits and risks associated with different forms of debt settlement and if any are the best option for you.

Discussing money can often be an unpleasant experience people ignore to avoid confrontation. You do not have to be delinquent with creditor payments or behind on your bills to ask for help.

Money management will offer you relief from financial stress. Contact us to find out how our Money Management works.

Financial planning begins by assessing the current state of your finances. We then turn to look at your future financial objectives. From there we then develop and initiate a plan to attain those goals.
