I have been in the financial services industry since 1996. I began my career at Lake City Bank in 1996 in Operations, moving into Treasury Management and finally finishing out in Marketing. In 2016, I became a licensed Mortgage Originator with Ruoff Mortgage.
My husband, Josh & I have lived in Warsaw for over 20 years. We love this community and have raised our two teenage sons here. I have been involved with Junior Achievement, the Cancer Care Fund, Kosciusko Economic Development Corporation Marketing Committee, and Partners in Education. I am currently on the board of directors for the Warsaw Education Foundation.
I pride myself on great customer service skills and an extensive knowledge of many aspects of banking. What I enjoy most about being a loan originator is the gratification that comes from helping people, whether it is getting them into a new home or just being available to answer questions about their existing loan. I am looking forward to assisting you with all your mortgage lending needs!

I can't say enough good things about Vanessa! She went above and beyond for us throughout this entire mortgage process. With all our changes, different requests and TONS of questions she never missed a beat! She answered every text, email and phone call (and there were a lot of them right away, even on the weekends! She made this process as smooth and easy as possible. The behind the scenes people were tremendous as well.. every step in the process was quick and easy. Aaron & I will definitely recommend Vanessa and Ruoff Mortgage!

Vanessa was really great to work with. She is incredibly responsive and helpful, particularly during a time that I know she must be very busy. She also took the time to walk us through many nuances both for the loan itself as well as the purchase reconciliation for closing.

While refinancing can be incredibly stressful, Vanessa made this process very easy. She is organized, friendly, and went above and beyond to answer all of my questions and to prepare for the easiest closing in history. She is a huge asset to Ruoff Mortgage.

Everything was done as expected and was informed at the moment of any updates. I will make sure to recommend Vanessa to my contacts that are looking to buy or refinance a home. Thank you all very much.

Vanessa was really great to work with! She was so helpful! We didn't use a realtor which had me a little leary but because of Vanessa's confidence and knowledge of the process all of our (mine and the sellers) questions were answered with a smile and sense of ease that made the whole process much more pleasant than I had anticipated.
