Biography
About Suzanne
Suzanne Stiefel joined loanDepot in December of 2016 bringing with her 24 years of industry experience. Suzanne has earned her reputation of knowledge, consistency and dependability. For the past two decades, her passion has been providing the very best in customer care and education for her borrowers.
“The financing process can be quite complicated and for many clients it is the largest financial decision they will make. I believe it is my fiduciary responsibility to professionally help my clients manage this debt and integrate the mortgage they select into their overall financial plan and goals. I want my clients to have the joy of owning a home and if they do it right, they will not feel owned by their home. How someone handles their mortgage impacts their ability to save for retirement, save for college, payoff bad debt and accumulate a rainy day fund for life’s emergencies.”
Suzanne works out of the Northbrook, Illinois office as a Senior Loan Officer. Her business is focused on satisfying the needs of her clients throughout the Greater Chicago area. Early on, she clerked at the Chicago Board Options Exchange and then went on to earn a degree in Finance while interning for a Georgia financial radio personality. Prior to joining loanDepot, Suzanne served as a Branch Manager and spent 15 years serving as the President and Managing Partner for her own mortgage company, which at its peak employed over 50 loan officers.
Suzanne lives in Northbrook, Illinois with her husband and daughter. She enjoys a very active lifestyle, however, her most cherished moments are the quiet times spent with family and close friends. “We are two working parents with overbooked schedules juggling the day to day priorities. I have learned to embrace celebrating life’s simple pleasures. This includes spending a rainy- snowy cold Chicago weekend in our pajamas, cooking and watching a stream of movies together or in the summer hosting a small gathering of our closest friends to some poolside fun in the sun!”
