Julie Heffernan with National Bank of Middlebury in Middlebury is VHFA's top mortgage loan originator in Addison County for 2008.
VHFA's fiscal year ends June 30, so summer is when we announce all our top originators for the previous year. We'll be announcing the rest of our top originators throughout the summer.
Congratulations, Julie!

Ashley won a bagful of VHFA-branded goodies for continuously improving her mileage for the past three weeks.
