If I could give Christian 10+ stars, I would. I am a first-time home buyer and Christian made the daunting process completely seamless. I was connected to Christian from close friends who used him for their home purchase, and he reached out immediately to make an introduction and navigate next steps. I had a million questions and then some, and Christian diligently and thoughtfully answered every one - even explaining complicated financials in Lehman’s terms so this little home-buying newbie could process it all. He is incre... read more

Christian fought and won to drop my rate further by acting quickly on national rate changes right before closing. We closed on time in 21 days. I've already referred him to my friends! 100% recommend

Christian and his team are the best in business. They helped us close our offer in a record amount of time and insured that we got the best possible rate. He is very communicative and answers texts even on weekends/late evenings and goes the extra mile in closing the deal. Christian worked with us very patiently and explained all the crucial points to us during the entire process. His team (especially Amber) are very thorough and provide a systematic list of items needed to close the loan. Big thanks to Christian and everyon... read more

With this being our first home purchase, Christian walked us through the process. He made home-buying very easy. He was incredibly responsive, and attentive to any and all of our needs and concerns. He worked diligently to get us pre-approval on an off-market home quickly, that allowed us to put an offer down. The process of communicating information was timely, thorough, and efficient. I highly recommend Christian, as we would definitely use him for any home financing needs.

I wanted to purchase my second home in Bend, Oregon but needed some help with some creative financing. Christian at Guaranteed Rate was recommended to me and I couldn't have been happier with his services. Christian always responded in a timely manner and had answers for me when needed. The process went smoothly and without any complications. Thank you Christian and the team at Guaranteed Rate!

In March we purchased a condo in SB on East Beach and we were lucky to find and work with Christian for that transaction. So when it came to our second purchase - it was a no brainer who we wanted to work with. The second property purchase was different than our first, for starters the funds borrowed was twice as much and the SB housing market was now twice as competitive. Christian’s extensive knowledge of mortgage instruments paired with an expansive Santa Barbara network was able to use our preferred financing option to d... read more

A big shout out of gratitude to Christian Menard and team at Guaranteed Rates for helping us be competitive in the very hot Santa Barbara real estate market to find the second home of our dreams. Christian found us a great low rate loan that fit our financial situation and allowed us to offer a shortened close schedule. Throughout the entire process, Christian’s response was always prompt which was very important especially during the crucial times of negotiating offers and during signing to ensure we met all the timelines (... read more
