Chris Salese

Buying a home or refinancing your existing home can be exciting, challenging, and perhaps one of the biggest financial decisions you will make in your life. It’s important to have a knowledgeable and trustworthy mortgage professional to help guide you through the loan process.

As Branch Manager of Del Sur Mortgage, a local retail mortgage bank, Chris has been helping clients with their financing needs for over 23 years in the Napa Valley and throughout all of California. With his experience, integrity, and ability to get the job done, he has earned the trust of his clients, their referrals and is a go-to lender for some of the area’s top Realtors. He is a graduate of the University of San Diego, a certified Freddie Mac Credit Smart Instructor and a huge Los Angeles Chargers football fan.

Chris happily lives in the beautiful Napa Valley with his four children. Supporting other local businesses and community involvement is very important to him too. He is a recent Past-President for the local youth soccer organization, Napa United, and coaches both youth soccer as well as Napa Little League baseball teams. In addition, Chris writes a column for the local newspaper, titled Napa’s Loan Ranger, which is published on the last Wednesday of the month in the Napa Valley Register.

Client Testimonials

We are first time home buyers who are lucky to have found Chris and his team! Chris was there for us from start to finish, answering our many questions and ensuring we were kept informed every step of the way. His positive, go-getter attitude makes him approachable and he is very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of mortgage loans, setting us up for the best case scenario. We wouldn’t have wanted to go through this process with any other team and appreciate all of their efforts in helping us find our forever home.
Caitlin & Kyle from Napa, CA

We’ve now refinanced twice with Chris Salese and his office manager Michelle, and both experiences have been excellent. They are knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly organized. Every step of the process was clearly explained, and they made what can feel overwhelming actually feel smooth and manageable.

What really stands out is the consistency. This wasn’t a one-time great experience — they’ve delivered the same level of professionalism and care both times we’ve worked with them. My parents also use Chris for all of their mortgage needs, which speaks volumes about the trust he’s built with our family.

If you’re looking for someone experienced, reliable, and easy to work with, Chris and Michelle are a fantastic team.

I had a fabulous experience with Chris and his most confident staff. I have referred him to friends who are equally pleased. Chris and his staff were always available for questions and they responded promptly.

Chris was incredibly helpful through our entire process. He really made the whole experience feel like a family affair. Not only did he fight to get us the best deal, he took the time to explain the steps as we went through it, and lend his vast knowledge to put our best interests in the fore front. Couldn’t have asked for a better mortgage broker. Thank you Chris!

Chris and his team were very easy to work with and notified me about each step of the process. Chris was also available to answer all my questions and would follow up afterwards to make sure I understood everything. He made me feel very comfortable working with him. As a first time homebuyer it can be a very stressful process but Chris and his team made it very manageable.
