Meet Olivia

Faith. Family. And a very cold Diet Coke.

Olivia Swanson believes life is meant to be lived fully — and that the biggest purchase of your life should feel like one of its best days.

The connector

If Ashland is the engine, Olivia is the one making sure every road leads to it.

As Director of Sales & Client Strategies for Lending Lakes & Co, Olivia builds and nurtures the relationships that keep the team growing — real estate partners, builders, financial planners, and the community network that sends us the buyers who need us most. She’s often the first voice you’ll hear when you reach out: mapping your situation, matching you with the right conversation, and making sure nothing about getting started feels intimidating.

Off the clock, she’s a mom who counts family as her greatest work, a woman whose Christian faith grounds everything she does, and someone who genuinely believes life’s experiences — big closings, small wins, and everything in between — are meant to be celebrated. Preferably with a Diet Coke in hand.

Okay but what's the Diet Coke thing about?
A closing gift, a peace offering, a celebration, a Tuesday. It works for everything. 🥤 Come to a coffee meeting with me and find out — I'm buying.

What she stands on

Three things you should know about Olivia.

Grounded in faith

Olivia’s Christian faith shapes how she works: with integrity, with patience, and with genuine care for every person on the other side of the table — client, partner, or teammate.

Family first

Being a mom is her proudest title. It’s also why she gets it — the school-district searches, the “we need one more bedroom” calls, the weight of a family’s biggest financial decision.

All-in on life

Olivia loves life and all of its experiences — and brings that energy to every partnership. Working with her is equal parts serious strategy and genuine celebration.

One honest disclosure.

Olivia is not a licensed loan originator — and she’ll tell you that in the first five minutes. Her job is the relationship; the lending runs through Ashland Alitz (NMLS #1584948) and the Lending Lakes & Co team. It’s a division of labor that means you always get an expert on the mortgage and a human being on the phone.
