The team is great!
Because our mortgage rep Kim Earls was with us every step of the way, from the initial pre-approval to closing. She kept us updated on changing interest rates, our closing costs, and where we were at in the process along the way.
Friendly helpful agents
The process was smooth and easy with Kim. I will reuse Rate again if needed.

Victor and his team were very patient and worked with me to ensure that I get the best rate, down payment, and monthly payment that works best for me. They exhausted all programs that were beneficial for me. They put my needs first and worked with that. Because of them I was able to close early and get the rate and monthly mortgage payment that works best for me.
Victor and team were amazing! We felt so supported throughout the entire process. All our questions answered and Victor is extremely responsive. This is my second home purchase and I couldn’t have asked for a smoother process! Thank you!
Spectacular Servicing Professional, Proficient and Personable
Victor and his team did a great job
I cannot speak highly enough of my loan officer, Kim Earls, along with her dedicated team, including Marcie and others. Their expertise and unwavering support throughout the loan process have truly been exceptional. They took the time to understand my needs, provided clear guidance, and went above and beyond to ensure a smooth experience. I am incredibly grateful for their professionalism and commitment to helping me achieve my home purchase.
Kim and her team
It was truly an honor working with Victor and the team at Guaranteed Rate. I initially began the process with another company, but I didn’t feel comfortable moving forward with them. From the very beginning, Victor was incredibly supportive, professional, and informative. Even as interest rates fluctuated, he provided us with a sense of peace and confidence throughout the homebuying process. I’m so grateful for this experience and will be recommending Victor and Guaranteed Rate to all my friends.
Victor Wazen and the team did a great job of keeping me informed and ensuring I understood every step in the process.
Victor especially and the rest of the team were very responsive to my requests and worked hard in order to get the loan approved.
Professionalism
Kim and Marcie were knowledgeable and great to work with. With our new build and change in closing I could count on them to ensure our mortgage rates were secure.
Kim and her team made us at ease during the whole process. They were professionals with empathy.

Kim was so great to work with! She made the process of getting our mortgage on our first home so easy and she was so attentive to our questions. I would happily recommend Kim to anyone!

Streamlined process; responsiveness, and professionalism
Good platform, easy application process, James Solimini was great to work with. I did want to note that the closing binder had multiple errors on it that were ultimately resolved but were inconvenient.
Victor was very informative and responsive
