NW Women's Journal Readers Name Rose City Mortgage a "Fabulous Find"
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (November 8, 2006)
Northwest Women's Journal readers have selected Portland-based Rose City Mortgage Specialists as one of their favorite mortgage and home loan businesses.
Rose City Mortgage tied with Washington Mutual and Bank of Clark County as a mortgage and home loan "Fabulous Find" in a recent readers' poll. Rose City was selected as one of 81 favorite businesses representing an array of categories. The NW Women's Journal will announce the results of the readers' poll in the January 2007 issue.
"Seventy percent of our employees and clients are women, so being picked by women for this award is especially satisfying," says Rose City Mortgage Owner Renee Spears.
The Northwest Women's Journal, a monthly publication headquartered in Vancouver, Wa., reaches 22,000 readers in the Portland metropolitan area. "As the group responsible for 85% of the purchasing decisions, women's purses pack a powerful punch," says Michele M. Larsen, NW Women's Journal publisher and editor in chief.
NW Women's Journal recently initiated the "Fabulous Finds" award to recognize businesses that area women say most deserve their dollars.
