Whitney Shoemaker, Reverse Mortgage Realtor
As a dedicated Realtor specializing in properties with Reverse Mortgages (HECM loans), I help estates, heirs, and homeowners navigate the unique challenges that come with these transactions. Whether a loved one has passed away or can no longer occupy their home, I provide guidance and clarity during a time when decisions can feel overwhelming.
With an extensive background at CompuLink-HUD, I bring in-depth knowledge of HUD guidelines and the full range of loss mitigation options available. I also collaborate with probate attorneys across Oklahoma - and work seamlessly with out-of-state clients - to ensure every transaction moves forward smoothly.
Many of my transactions never reach the MLS, as I frequently assist heirs in purchasing property directly from the estate. This approach provides privacy, confidentiality, and security while preventing the risks associated with vacant homes being publicly listed. I also work with a network of investors interested in estate properties and have trusted contractors available to assist with repairs. When estates qualify for a short sale, I help ensure they take full advantage of HUD's process, including potential coverage of commissions and certain closing costs, which can greatly reduce the financial burden.
In addition to my real estate expertise, I am a licensed Mortgage Loan Originator and Contract Underwriter with a strong background in mortgage origination, underwriting, and appraisal review. I cannot underwrite files in Oklahoma or on transactions where I serve as the agent or loan originator, but my underwriting background allows me to anticipate challenges, explain loan program options, and streamline the process for my clients.
My mission is to combine expertise with empathy, helping families protect their interests and move forward with confidence.

About Whitney Shoemaker
I bring a unique skill set to real estate transactions involving reverse mortgages because I've worked both inside the HUD-HECM servicing department and in the real estate market. During my time at CompuLink, I worked directly with HUD Customer Service, Loss Mitigation, Compliance, Property Charges, and Payoff departments. This experience gave me a deep understanding of how HUD-HECM operates and how to communicate effectively with their teams.
In addition, I spent more than a decade as an underwriter, gaining extensive FHA mortgage and appraisal knowledge - an important advantage in these transactions.
Today, as a Realtor, I combine my HUD and underwriting background to collaborate with probate attorneys and guide heirs, executors, and homeowners through reverse mortgage payoffs, short sales, and complex estate transactions. My goal is to make the process as smooth and streamlined as possible while ensuring the best outcome for all parties involved.
Client Testimonials
Gary, Pryor, OK | 2025: Whitney was a blessing for us, helping us sell my Mother's house. It was a reverse mortgage and her vast experience dealing with this was superb. She kept us informed, explained how the process works, set up the appraisals, and got the short sale done for us. The title company even commented on how professional all the paperwork was in order and said it was a seamless transaction. I can't thank Whitney enough for her compassion, work ethic, and knowledge of the real estate business.
M. Bishop, Tulsa, OK | 2025: Whitney really helped streamline the process and assisted me with purchasing my grandfather's home. Couldn't have done it without her!
David, Claremore, OK | 2025: I have bought and sold 8 properties in the last 42 years, and of all the realtors I’ve used Whitney outperformed all the others by far. She kept us informed on what to expect during the process, and I know in my heart we would not have been successful in purchasing my dad's former home had she not negotiated on our behalf. She caught mistakes during escrow that saved us thousands of dollars and kept things moving, giving us confidence that we had the best person watching over the sale. She calmed my nerves several times during the process and I highly recommend her!
Tim Wilson, Wilbur, OK | 2025: Very pleased with the way everything was handled. I don’t think it could have gone any better. Very informative throughout the whole process. Thanks again for your help and support during this process.
Kyra, Pryor, OK | 2025: Whitney is really great! She helped me buy my grandparents' house. Definitely recommend her to help.
