Tom and his team made the entire mortgage process easy and relatively stress-free! We were first time homebuyers, so didn't have too much knowledge of the mortgage process starting out. Tom's team explained things patiently, clearly and thoroughly. We really enjoyed working with everyone we encountered at Guaranteed Rate, and would definitely use them again in the future. I've already referred friends to Tom's team, and will continue to do so! 

Business response:

Thank you so much for the review Anna and glad you had a stress free experience like all my clients. I'm always available to help, call me if you need anything! Congratulations again on the new home!

After getting me my original mortgage, Tom called me to offer me a no cost refinance when rates had dropped. Great team to work with, makes things easy and is always willing to answer any question. Walked us through the entire process. And always calls you back. Always. 

Business response:

Thank you so much Evan! It's always a pleasure working with you and I appreciate your loyalty and trusting me with your home purchase needs throughout the years. Call me if you need anything!

When I was looking around for a lender I asked my coworker if he liked the company where he got his mortgage and my coworker emphatically said "yes" which I thought was strange. I'm so glad I asked though, because working with Tom was a low-stress affair. He took the time, at any time, to make sure I understood every detail, he was quick to communicate and patient in his explanations. Also, he offered the best rate out of all the lenders I spoke with. 

Business response:

Thank you Lindsay for the recommendations and valued business. Appreciate the kind words and review. Please call me if you ever need anything! Congratulations again on your new home.

Every transaction is flawless, Tom is always available (we had quite a few discussions after regular office hours!), with patience and years of experience to provide guidance and support. Truly an amazing experience all around, every time! My best recommendation for Tom and the GR team!!
