Christina Rusca
Loan Consultant
NMLS: 1379614
After more than two decades in the mortgage industry, I’ve come to value consistency over hype and authenticity over sales. There's a lot of noise, and my role is to bring clarity to a system that too often confuses the people it’s meant to serve, simplifying what's complex so you can make confident, informed choices.
Today, I bring a more conscious approach to mortgage lending—one that honors both the financial and energetic realities of homeownership. I help people navigate a complex system with clarity, integrity, and confidence, whether they’re purchasing their first home, restructuring generational property, or exploring nontraditional ways of living together.
My work is rooted in a simple question: Who do you want to live with? Because home isn’t only where we live—it’s how we live, and with whom we share our resources, responsibilities, and rhythms.
I believe you can engage with the mortgage system without letting it grind you down. You can be informed without being overwhelmed. Strategic without being stressed. Aligned without being idealistic. It's possible to finance a home without feeling consumed by the process, and I can show you how.
I bring the structure and expertise you’d expect from a seasoned mortgage professional, along with the presence and perspective of a certified yoga instructor and intuitive guide. The result is a grounded, human experience that leaves people saying, “That actually felt good.”
My job is to make sure getting you home doesn’t cost you your peace—and I’m proud to do that as part of Team loanDepot.

Christina is one of the most respectable, knowledgeable, and honest mortgage loan officers I know. She's very patient with her clients and believes in full transparency when it comes to making sure the homebuyer understands every detail of every step. She takes time to answer their questions and makes sure they feel comfortable asking any questions they may have. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or refinance a home. Whether it's your first home or your 21st, you can't go wrong with partnering with Christina to get the deal done.

As a local investor who frequently buys real estate, and as the owner of the Northshore Real Estate Investors Association, I come across many lenders in the industry. Sometimes I feel like I’ve met most of them because very few stand out. But not Christina! From day one she has impressed me with her drive, creativity, and willingness to go the extra mile to get things done—to the point that I send clients her way. She’s trustworthy, dependable, and will get the job done! Sadly, you can’t say that for everyone these days because the hustle and work ethic she possesses is a dying art. Thankful to have her as a strong resource in my back pocket!

I am a Realtor, so I know how difficult some loan options can be. But, when working with Christina, she makes the process easy to understand for the buyer because she is knowledgeable about the best loan product to offer. I highly recommend her for both real estate professionals as well as home buyers. Professional, courteous, and knowledgeable.

I want everyone to know what a pleasant experience I had when I went through the process of obtaining a loan when I bought a house in Abita Springs, LA. Christina was very professional, friendly, and went over and above what I expected. Christina answered all my questions and had questions of her own that helped me obtain the best rates possible. I don't plan on purchasing another home in my lifetime, but I would work with her again if I did without question. Furthermore, I would highly recommend her to anyone searching for a mortgage lender.

Christina is very thorough and personable and is not at all transaction-based. Because she is local, she can deliver a very high level of customer service that "virtual" or "remote" lenders cannot. Christina makes herself extremely available for her customers, and as a result, she works with a lot of referrals and repeats business. I would HIGHLY recommend her.

Being a Realtor, I understand how important it is to have a lender in that is going to work hard and have clear communication throughout the transaction, and Christina does JUST that!

Christina goes ABOVE AND BEYOND for her clients! Never have I worked with anyone who is so quick, thorough, and who genuinely cares about her clients as people. She’s a joy to work with and truly gifted at what she does!

Christina went above and beyond to make my home buying process simple, quick, and pleasant! She was very professional and communicative and was sure to update me at every step of the loan process. Christina and her team offered a wraparound experience, connecting me with everything I needed during this process. There was very little groundwork to do because Christina and her team spent early mornings, late evenings, and weekends to take care of everything they could. I was pre-approved and closed on my home all within 30 days! I’m grateful for her!
