After graduating from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo with a BS in Animal Science, and spending several years post-college in the Animal Science industry, I found myself at a crossroads in life. Not knowing where it would eventually take me, I took a job with a mortgage broker in San Luis Obispo, Ca.
Now, 24 years later, I cannot believe how fulfilling the journey has been. Helping thousands of clients finance their dreams, has in turn enriched my life beyond words.
I believe in a comprehensive approach, working with the clients and their financial partners in developing a plan that will both support and enhance their financial goals. Honesty and integrity, combined with experience and know-how and always with the client’s best interest at heart, I strive to educate my clients so that their home financing experience is the least stressful step in purchasing a home.
In 2014, my wife and I moved to beautiful Bend, Oregon to take advantage of all the area has to offer. We came for the rivers, trees, and mountains and we stay for the rich community that we have found here. I would be honored to help you do the same.

Natalie Curtis
NMLS #2128310
I moved out to Central Oregon after graduating with my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Michigan State University. The plan was always to move on pretty quickly but I fell in love with the Pacific Northwest and decided to stick around. I've spent the last four years in escrow as an assistant, helping guide customers through home purchases, home sales, and refinances and making sure they were taken care of. I'm excited to move into the lending side of real estate and help people realize their dreams of first-time homeownership or finding a new loan that will allow them to enjoy more of what this area has to offer. With my experience in escrow, my attention to detail, and my commitment to taking care of my people I'm hopeful I can provide a smooth transaction to everyone I get the privilege of working with.
When I'm not busy at work you can usually find me at home with my fiance, cat, and chickens or exploring Central Oregon's many hiking trails and waterfalls. We have made a wonderful life for ourselves here and I hope to help you in finding your own little piece of happiness!

I first visited Central Oregon in the Spring of 2014 and after a week of exploring the outdoors, eating great food, drinking great craft beer, and enjoying the kindness that Bend is known for I knew I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to live in such a great community.
After working as a Property Manager for over 10 years the opportunity to expand and become a Mortgage Broker was presented to me. The idea of being able to help the same people who were renting and paying someone else’s mortgage get into their dream home and start building their equity and personal wealth sounded like a dream come true.
If I am not in the office you can most likely find me outside with my dog, Duke. I love everything the outdoors has to offer from Fishing, kayaking, running, snowboarding, and golf to drinking a delicious craft brew on one of the many pub patios around town. I am beyond happy that I landed with such a great team at High Lakes Lending, LLC, and look forward to helping you pursue your dream of home ownership.
