Michelle Turchetta was born and raised in Central Florida. She’s a proud UCF alum and has been serving families for over 25 years. Advocacy has been the common denominator across her career and being an educator is who she is; not just what she does.
One aspect of both advocacy and education is dispelling common misconceptions. The reverse mortgage is very commonly misunderstood. Michelle has made it her mission to educate the community about this life-changing program that is designed specifically for seniors because she has seen people use this solution to create a life that they would not have been able to create without it. When you see her, ask her about it!
As a mortgage loan originator, she listens to the specific needs of each customer and works with them to explore various options and find the best mortgage solution to meet their specific needs. On average, Americans get 4 mortgages in their lifetime. It’s an important decision and one that should be made with a professional on their side who has their best interest at heart. The process of getting a mortgage can be grueling and having a trusted advisor guiding you through it shouldn’t be thought of as a luxury, but more so a requirement. Michelle understands how important the process is and does whatever it takes for each customer’s experience to be a positive one. She became a Certified Senior Advisor in 2007 and sincerely enjoys meeting with seniors, their families, and their trusted advisors to explore the financial freedom that a reverse mortgage can provide.
Being immersed in the community and connecting with other businesses is where you can find her when she’s not working with her customers and their families. She and her husband are recent empty nesters. They spend as much time as possible on their jet skis exploring Florida’s beautiful lakes, springs, and oceans. They have 3 adult children and 3 large dogs: 2 labrador retrievers and a 175-pound Great Dane
