About Debra Raho

Debra Holt is a new Senior Loan Officer joining us in Maitland, Florida, where she focuses on helping borrowers meet their unique home financing needs with our broad range of products. Our Beyond program, streamlined Jumbo loans, and Renovation loans were particular draws to her to pass along the benefits to borrowers, and our culture and marketing and operations support certainly helped.

Prior to Embrace, Debra worked with Ameris Bank as a Loan Officer on everything from origination to closing. She was recognized as a 5-Star Mortgage Professional in 2021, and is a Certified VA Mortgage Loan planner. She’s passionate about supporting Pet Alliance of Central Florida, Nature Conservancy, and the Humane Society, and veterans are of particular importance to her. Her father was in the military, so her family lived in multiple states when she was growing up. He retired in Columbus, Georgia, in the Fort Benning area and she finished high school and more in Columbus.

Debra currently lives in Maitland in a mid century modern home that she and her husband love. In her spare time, she enjoys gardening, music, cooking, reading, and appreciating mid-century modern architecture and furniture. She likes to stay active through walking, biking, and paddleboarding, and on a perfect day you can find her relaxing with her husband and pets, gardening, reading for leisure, and listening to good music before dinner with friends and lively conversation.
