About

With more than 16 years of experience in the financial and mortgage industry, Ashlee Yocum is passionate about helping homebuyers achieve the dream of homeownership. As the founder of the Oklahoma Mortgage Gals team at Waterstone Mortgage, Ashlee is known for combining industry expertise with clear, compassionate communication — ensuring every client feels confident and informed throughout the mortgage process.

Ashlee works with a wide range of loan programs to help meet the needs of today’s homebuyers, including conventional loans, FHA loans, HUD Section 184 loans, down payment assistance programs, and mortgage solutions for self-employed borrowers. She believes that buying a home is one of life’s most important milestones, and she takes pride in helping clients navigate the financing process with clarity and confidence.

Clients appreciate Ashlee’s approachable style, strong communication, and commitment to making the mortgage experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. She is supported by her longtime loan partner, Leslie Wells, whose behind-the-scenes coordination helps ensure every loan moves efficiently from application to closing.

Ashlee’s journey to success is rooted in perseverance and determination. As a former teenage mother, she understands firsthand the power of hard work and believing in yourself. Today, with a grown son and two younger children, she considers it an honor to help other families achieve the stability and opportunity that homeownership can provide.

Outside of the mortgage industry, Ashlee holds an associate degree in business and marketing and stays active in her community through Guts Church and the Wesley Chapel Youth Program. When she’s not helping clients secure home financing, she enjoys working out, dancing Bachata, and cheering on her daughter in basketball and her youngest son in wrestling.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable mortgage professional who will guide you through every step of the home financing journey, Ashlee and the Oklahoma Mortgage Gals team are ready to help.

About Miscee Smith

Hi, I’m Melissa, also known as "Miscee” Smith, Broker Owner of Avenue 23 Realty.

I’m passionate about helping clients navigate real estate with confidence—whether buying, selling, or building wealth through property. Known for my strong negotiation skills and hands-on approach, I believe every client deserves clear communication, honest guidance, and results that truly align with their goals.

After years as a top-producing REALTOR®, I stepped into launching Avenue 23 Realty with a clear vision. Through my experience, I developed the skills and insight to recognize areas where I could elevate the client experience—offering a more full-service, high-level approach with marketing as a true niche.

I built my brokerage to go beyond the traditional model, delivering above-and-beyond, “royal” service that sets my clients apart. For me, communication and service are everything—it’s never just about selling homes, it’s about building lasting relationships.

Avenue 23 Realty is more than just my brokerage—it’s a reminder that dreams can become reality. It represents not only my journey, but a shared vision with my clients. No matter how far away homeownership may feel, I’m here to help guide you every step of the way and turn that goal into something tangible.

My heart is rooted in giving back to the community. As the wife of a first responder, I have a deep appreciation for those who serve, and I strive to support and uplift our local heroes and families whenever possible.

As Mrs. Oklahoma 2024, I’m also passionate about empowering women to step into their full potential and create opportunities for themselves and their families.

At my core, I’m family-driven and understand how important it is to find a home that truly fits your lifestyle.

Real estate, to me, is more than a transaction, it’s about helping people build a life they love.
