About me

In 1991, Alison had the privilege of being the first person to bring Reverse Mortgage products to Louisiana while working with a Lender out of Levittown, NY. With 30+ years of experience in the industry, Alison has worked on both the retail side of the business, originating Reverse Mortgages and in the wholesale side of the business, as a National Account Executive for some of the largest Reverse Mortgage wholesale investors. Alison spent many years educating and managing Reverse Mortgage Brokers and Mortgage Lenders throughout the country. Her experience also includes managing the Reverse Mortgage servicing division of New Orleans based, Standard Mortgage Corporation.  Alison has worked in virtually every aspect of the Reverse Mortgage business and brings the most extensive reverse mortgage background in the state to each in every client she serves.
While Alison’s primary territory is the Greater New Orleans area, she covers the entire state and is licensed in MS, AR and TX as well.

In 2016, Alison achieved the status of being a Certified Reverse Mortgage Professional (CRMP).  She earned the designation after passing a rigorous exam and background check, thereby demonstrating a competency in reverse mortgages and a dedication to uphold the highest ethical and professional standards in the industry. 

Alison serves on the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Assoc (NRMLA) education committee and teaches NMLS continuing education through NRMLA. Additionally, she is approved to teach a CE course on Reverse Mortgages with the New Orleans Metropolitan Association of Realtors (NOMAR).

Alison is a native New Orleanian, married to Carl and has two children and two grandchildren.

Alison was a pleasure to work with. I had a few issues that took a couple of years to get through and she calmly guided me through the process until completion.

Alison Calamia is a true professional who looked at problems we encountered during the loan process as interesting challenges and dealt with them without hesitation and without pushing us to rush into any dead ends or false starts. I wanted to be forthright with all our facts to avoid any implication that we were resisting the duty to share detailed reality with Guild as mortgage holder and administrator, and Alison encouraged us to be even more complete in our application to assure we felt good about the disclosures and the results, all in what seemed like a very fast time period! We send ouir heartfelt thanks to Alison Calmia, a real lending expert who cares!

Alison Calamia handled our loan professionally and with understanding of the specific problem(s) presented better than I've ever experienced, and I was a practicing transactional lawyer for about 50 years before retiring. No issue stopped her or even gave her pause. We had a difficult and complex situation, or at least it seemed so to everyone else but Alison. She's amazing, and we would do a loan again with her, if we ever need to.
