After experiencing other mortgage lenders that just simply didn’t listen to our needs or plans for the future, we thankfully found Dave through a strong recommendation. Dave was beyond professional, responsive, and listened to everything we were looking for. There was no upselling and felt like we were dealing with family and not a sales guy. We would give Dave and his team a 100 out of 10 rating for the ease of the process and stress free experience.

We had an excellent experience working with Dave throughout our home purchase. From start to finish, he was friendly, professional, and incredibly responsive. We had to switch lenders midway through the process due to a poor experience with our previous lender, particularly regarding communication and transparency, which added a lot of stress given our timeline. Dave immediately put us at ease. His communication was outstanding—he kept us informed every step of the way, answered all of our questions promptly, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. One thing we especially appreciated was his transparency. There were no hidden fees or surprises, and everything was explained clearly from the beginning. Dave genuinely had our best interests in mind and went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and confident throughout the process. We would highly recommend Dave to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy lender. Thank you for making our home-buying experience such a positive one!

Dave Taormina was an excellent loan officer. He was incredibly responsive—even on weekends—and always made time to answer questions quickly. Dave explained everything clearly and kept the process smooth and stress-free from start to finish. Highly recommend working with him if you want fast communication and straightforward guidance.

I tried getting a quote from 5 different lenders and rate was able to find the lowest, including providing great customer. Everything was explained to me throughout the process and my lender (Dave Taormina) was always available.

Very helpful, knowledgable and courteous staff made the process easier.

Dave Taormina and team are top notch. They are transparent, empathetic, and strong with communication. They make the process as easy and seamless as they can.

Can't say enough great things about Dave and his team. You will not be disappointed with the level of service and care that they will do for you. Thank you for everything, Dave and team!

If you are looking for a loan officer that is transparent, available, friendly, proactive, and can find you the lowest rate for your home, then look no further. Rate, especially Dave Taormina, is amazing! I had applied for pre-approval with 5 different lenders and some how Dave was able to find me the lowest rate. He was available all the time, no matter the day and time (even after office hours). Him and his entire team (Melanie, Lorin, Jasmin, etc.) provided excellent communication.They kept me up to date on what was needed. I was able to have my finances for the home completed well in advance of the actual closing day. He was able to provide me my total monthly expenses even before considering an offer on a home. Such great service, that even my agent wanted to get his contact information for future purchases. He was one of the only lenders that I worked with that was available for the entire the tri-state area (NY, NJ, K CT), making it easier to shop for homes. I would definitely recommend him and his team to anyone that is interested in looking for a new home or investment property. I will be using him again for future purchases. 10/10.

Dave is AMAZING to work with. Everyone talks about the home-buying process as being stressful, especially for first-time homeowners. But Dave made this process so stress-free! He is extremely knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to ensure he is always communicating with you. There was not a single moment that I felt I was not in the right hands.

As a first time home buyer I was extremely nervous to purchase a new home. I reached out to Dave at Guaranteed Rate for help with obtaining a mortgage. Dave answered everyone of my questions throughly and was always there to help me. Dave was there for every step of the way and made sure that I was approved for a loan. I could not have done this without Dave and sincerely recommend everyone go to him for your loans. Thank you Dave for making this happen and your patience throughout!

It was a wonderful experience working with Dave for our mortgage. He was extremely communicative and knowledgeable. If I ever had a question, he was just a phone call away. Whatever questions we had, he was there to answer. Working with Dave ensured that our home buying process was smooth and easy! I would highly recommend him as a loan officer for anyone who is looking to secure a mortgage to buy a home.

David was awesome to work with. He made obtaining a mortgage as painless as possible and very easy. If you are in the market shopping for a mortgage Dave is your man. Would most definitely recommend and use him again in the future.

You guys are the best and so so patient. AND QUICK!!

Dave Taormina and his team are second to none. My wife and I were in the process of purchasing an investment property and were experiencing delays from our lender. We decided to switch to Dave and his team. Despite being late in the process the entire team jumped in and had us ready to close in just over two weeks. Without Dave and his team's speed we would have likely lost the deal! Cannot thank the team enough for making this happen!

I cannot say enough good thing about Dave and his team. I was referred to Dave through our realtor and he is an absolute rockstar. This was the first home that my husband and I purchased so we had no idea where to even start when it came to the financial aspect of things. We told Dave what we were looking for and gave him all the necessary information and he was there every step of the way. Throughout this process, Dave was so easy to talk to about literally anything - any concerns about the interest rates, questions about monthly payments, budgets, etc. and always answered or got back to us immediately! He was also the ultimate hype man for my husband and I and was genuinely so very excited for us as we approached our closing date - so much so that he met us for our closing to be there! We will recommend Dave a million times over again and if there ever came a time where we went to buy another home - we will absolutely be calling Dave again! Thank you so much for everything, Dave! You are the best!
