Tagalog-speaking loan officers in Arizona

As of 2026-10-09, LenDb lists 2 loan officers licensed in or based in Arizona whose lender pages say they speak Tagalog. The top-ranked are Sheilla Lavadia (Loan Factory) and Michelle Bader (Loan Factory). Ranking is lender-neutral: a license in AZ, 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 Tagalog. Loan officers are included when a AZ license is confirmed with the state regulator (check mark), AZ 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.
