Let me help you get pre-approved today!

Like you, I believe in the value of good customer service, and I'm sure you also respect the importance of being treated honestly and fairly. These are qualities I have carried with me throughout my career.

I have been in the finance industry for over 20 years. What I discovered along the way was my passion for helping people. Everyone has different dreams and ideas when it comes to a home. Some are looking for a place to raise their families, others want the peace and quiet of living in the country and some people seek the sense of community a neighborhood brings. A home means something different to each one of us.

Sure, I'm a Michiana native. Grew up here, went to school here and I live here now. I am active in BNI, (Business Networking International), I have taught knitting classes at a local yarn shop and my hobby is making jewelry. But the important thing for you to know is that I like what I do, and I'm there for you, all the way throughout the process of reaching your goal. My biggest reward? The smile on your face when you know the refinance or the purchase of your new home is complete.

I understand that purchasing a new home or refinancing an existing one can be one of the most important things financially someone can do. And I get to help. Fairly, honestly and with all the service I can muster. Now I've found a home with Ruoff Mortgage where there are professionals to support my efforts to help you achieve your goals. So let me put my experience to work for you. I think you'll be glad you did!

    Dee and her assistant Collin made the process very smooth and fast! We closed less than a month after I initially started the process! I am very grateful I had Dee! She is so knowledgeable and passionate about her job and clients and I will be using Dee at Ruoff for all my future home purchases!

    Dee was the star in our home purchase. We closed early ! She truly represents the best there is in the mortgage industry. She’s extremely knowledgeable, on the ball, precise, accurate and a wonderful person. I not only would recommend her, but have on 2 occasions already. If I ever need to purchase another home- I’ll be calling Dee. 😁

    Dee is a delight to work and talk with. Very personable. Really puts herself out there to make sure you understand and are comfortable with everything that’s happening. Will be recommending to all friends and family to use Ruoff, but most definitely ask for Dee .
