Maria Elena Franco

Elena's experience in real estate began in 2005 when she started originating home refinance loans. When the market took a dip, she worked on many home loan modifications to help borrowers find relief from their upside-down mortgages. She worked for some of the country's most notable top 20 lenders. This experience in real estate finance has graced her with a world of knowledge for the pre-qualification process.

After dedicating almost 13 years of her real estate career to the mortgage and finance industry, helping clients qualify to purchase a home, or showing homeowners how to use the equity in their homes to consolidate debt or send their kids off to college; she felt obligated to inspire and share with anyone who would listen. Just like the story of her humble parents, she wants all to reap the benefits of homeownership. She wants to make all San Diegan's homeowners, so she changed from mortgage to sales and became a Realtor!
