Russian-speaking loan officers in Virginia

As of 2026-10-26, LenDb lists 6 loan officers licensed in or based in Virginia whose lender pages say they speak Russian. The top-ranked are Yaro Hnatenko (Buckingham Mortgage LLC), JJ Ellong (CrossCountry Mortgage, Orlando) and Alex Margulis (CrossCountry Mortgage, Chicago). Ranking is lender-neutral: a license in VA, branch location, experience and profile completeness. Nobody pays for placement. Languages come only from loan officers' own lender pages, and most lender pages do not list languages. A loan officer missing from this list may still speak it: not listed means not stated, not that they do not speak it.

How this list is ranked

A loan officer is listed when their own lender page lists Russian. Loan officers are included when a VA license is confirmed with the state regulator (check mark), VA is listed on their lender page, or they work at a bank or credit union (likely federally registered; verify at NMLS). Then branch location, experience and profile completeness. No paid placement. Methodology.
