Let me help you get pre-approved today!

I am a 25-year mortgage veteran with experience spanning from the late 1990s to today, and a proud mother of three boys. My personal mortgage journey started in 2002 when I bought my first home using an assumable mortgage. I've thrived through fluctuating rates from 2.25% lows to 9.625% highs, succeeding in both seller's and buyer's markets. Flexibility is key to meeting demands and delivering the best outcomes for my clients. I focus on building lasting relationships based on trust with clients and referral partners. Motherhood has taught me patience, teamwork, and multitasking. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, investor, or need refinancing help, I offer expertise, dedication, and personalized service. Outside of work, I enjoy crafting and anything DIY.

    My husband worked with Thea to purchase our home and he was so impressed by her consistent communication and speed at which we were able to get everything done. We are very happy that we went with Ruoff and that Thea was our loan officer.

    I believe that Thea did an excellent job and helping me through the loan process as a first time home buyer. She kept me up to date with everything happening throughout the entire process, offered helpful insight from her past experience, and was available anytime I had a question to ask. I couldn't recommend Thea more if you are looking for someone to help you through the loan process.
