Chris is a top professional in the field of home finance with a specialty in reverse mortgages. Our first inquiry to Chris was in Sept. 2105 and the closing on our new home was in January 2016. Yes, it takes a long time to finalize the details, file the papers and get approvals. Chris was with us the whole way to answer questions and lead the way with patience and always a smile.
I have never worked with anyone so dedicated to customer satisfaction. What a delight to have had the privilege of Chris as our consultant.

My experience with Chris Valdez was amazing. I had done a lot of research before contacting a Reverse Mortgage Realtor, but still had a lot of questions. I spoke to several in my area before choosing one. I chose Chris because I could leave a message or send her an email, and she would contact me that same day. If you want a realtor that is responsive to your needs and wants, Chris is the one that I have recommended to my family and friends and I would recommend that you call her.
