BURLINGTON, ON

Three Burlington mortgage professionals have been recognized in a list of the industry’s female rising stars.

Carmen Campagnaro of Pro Funds Mortgages, and Ana Cruz and Lisa Pellerin of LA Mortgage Team Mortgage Intelligence have been included in Canadian Mortgage Professional magazine’s Women of Influence report.

This annual list honors 26 females who are making waves and reshaping the business – women who are behind some of the biggest deals and innovations in the industry. The list is diverse from CEOs to company founders to leading brokers – but all are professionals at the top of their game.

“We asked our readers to nominate women who are making a difference in their communities and the mortgage business as a whole,” said Vernon Clement Jones, editor of Canadian Mortgage Professional. “In just a few short years, the broker channel has seen a shift to fairer gender representation. While there’s still a long way to go, this year’s Women of Influence report is a testament to those strides.”

Carmen Campagnaro

Carmen Campagnaro got hooked on real estate when she purchased her first property at the age of 18. Since then, her passion for real estate has been complemented by a keen eye for sourcing, purchasing, flipping and selling properties. Being an avid investor herself, Carmen launched Pro Funds Mortgages in 1997 with the goal of helping others realize their own real estate goals with a focus on creative financing solutions.
