about me

 “May the wind always push you forward, and the sun always shine on your face”

In 1999, Denise started her mortgage career after working for the Red Cross and in the medical industry for several years. Starting as a Mortgage Loan Officer and devoting most of her time on growth of relationships has afforded her a successful career for the past 21 years.

Denise attributes her success to her sincere connection with people; both as a consultant for clients and partners, and as a leader. She enjoys the home buyer process and coaching of clients through the largest purchase of their lives, and has a passion to find, train, and develop people who work hard and are nice to others.

Denise has held a strong position in her market with multiple roles for many years. She’s been a Five-Star Professional winner for 5 consecutive years, featured in Forbes February 2019 issue, and is looked up to as a market leader by her peers.

Denise and her assistant Eva are exceptional at what they do! They went above and beyond for my husband and I in every way! We could always reach them and they answered all our questions. They managed to close our loan on time with appraisal and CO coming in just one day before! The two of them made the mortgage process seamless and we are so grateful. We will definitely recommend Denise to everyone we know! And we will continue to work with Denise for funding of future properties!

Denise Russo and her right hand, Eva, are the dream team in the mortgage world! They are both so responsive and incredible at what they do! They assisted my husband and I with a mortgage on a new construction home. With new construction, things really have to come together in the end to close the loan...right down to the last week! Denise and Eva made it happen! We closed on time with a great rate and the service is the best we have ever received. On top of all that, they are two of the nicest and most genuine people you will ever meet! We will continue to work with Denise & Eva on future rental properties! They are the dream team!!! Thank you Denise & Eva for everything! We feel so blessed to have had you both on our side throughout the whole mortgage process!

From our very first interaction until we closed Denise was always available to help us thru the process. Not only she is very skilled at what she does, her professionalism and friendly demeanor make her a pleasure to work with.

Carissa Layton

quotes

Denise and her team were a pleasure to work with. Denise was always available to answer any questions or concerns we had during the process. Denise really aided in making the house buying process simple and stress free.

Devon Layton

quotes

We cannot recommend DENISE sufficiently highly to explain to others how much she rescued us. We had signed up with another lender who scheduled three closings that were postponed over a month and a half and costing us for the delay which was not our fault. At that point we fired them and hired Denise who was able to arrange a closing for us within two weeks. Not to mention that in the middle of her scramble to arrange for our two week closing, she was getting married! She’s a star!
