More importantly, I help them understand the various loan options they have so they can make the right choice on which loan program is right for them. I have seen and experienced it all in my 37 years of mortgage lending.

Michele DiBella

Sr. Mortgage Consultant

• “ Self employed” 12-month bank statements instead of tax returns!

• Unparalleled customer service

• Conforming or multimillion dollar

• Purchase or refi nance

• 31 years in the mortgage industry

Michele DiBella started her banking career in the Midwest and moved to California after record-breaking temperatures of almost 70 below zero. She went to work at Citibank in 1983 and was put on a pilot program called “Mortgage Power,” which was the fi rst real estate/mortgage banker in-house relationship with RE/MAX. It was a huge success and from that experience, Michele was able to develop a “team attitude” and the tenacity to traverse the ever-changing lending environment. Michele became an independent mortgage broker/banker which gave her the power to provide the same superior service, but with more choices of banks and products.
