We had a very tricky deal that unfortunately we couldn't push through with Rate, but I'm confident that Rate tried EVERY possible way to make this work and truly went above and beyond. Really appreciate everything Guy and his team has done for us, even though we weren't able to secure financing in the end with his team.
Response from Owner
Beatrix, I appreciate your kind words more than you know. Even though things didn't pan out the way we'd hoped with the financing, my team and I always want to make sure we exhaust every possible avenue for our clients. It was a pleasure getting to know you, and I truly wish you the absolute best in all your future endeavors.
Highly recommend Rate! Guy was an absolute superstar!

Our team always strives to make the paperwork stage smooth and straightforward, so I'm glad that came through in your experience. Enjoy your new chapter, and please don't hesitate to reach out whenever you need anything down the road.
Guy held my hand throughout the entire process, and despite all the issues that came up on my end, he got me through it and got me to the closing line

Sal, I really appreciate you taking the time to share this.

Behind the scenes, our local team and office support worked hard to keep everything on track, and I'm glad we could help get you through it. Congratulations on your new home!
I am a real estate salesperson with 10yrs of experience. Guy Aboutboul at Rate has been a godsend. I am so pleased to have found him. He quite literally has saved deals for me. My clients love him and his approach especially for first time homeowners. He is responsive and thorough and works well with the team. I honestly do not like doing transactions without him. I highly recommend his services.

Thank you so much Sharon! It’s always a pleasure working with you!
Guy was extremely responsive, thorough, and made our loan process extremely straight forward. We could not have gotten better service from Guy or any of the other members of the Rate team. We will certainly use Guy for our next purchase.

I worked with Guy on my recent coop purchase and I cannot recommend him and his team enough. Guy was always available to offer guidance and went above and beyond when I was competing with other offers on my place. He and his team were knowledgeable, patient, helpful and above all, friendly and lovely to work with, making a stressful time easier. Five stars for sure!

Worked with Guy twice now - for original mortgage and refinance. Both times the process was smooth and explained really well (I’m a first time buyer). His team is super communicative and reallt lovely to work with. Highly recommended!
Response from Lender
Karolina, it's been an absolute pleasure partnering with you both times as you navigated homeownership and your recent refinance. I'm so glad our team made the paperwork clear and kept communication seamless from start to finish. Thank you for trusting us again with your mortgage needs, and enjoy your wonderful home!
TOP TIER SERVICE THIS COMPANY IS PROBABLY one of the best mortgage companies I don’t believe there are many companies that can close in 30 days, but they pulled it off. They helped me repair my credit they would they walk me through every step of the way. I didn’t have one question that couldn’t be answered and they got the job done at the end of the day which I can’t tell alot for the other mortgage companies they also got me a very good rate I just have so many more things to say I just can’t fit it all in one review but you get the idea

Wow, what a pleasure it was to work with Guy and his team! Going through the mortgage process can be incredibly stressful, but Guy made it so simple - he and his team are extremely knowledgeable, communicate swiftly and clearly, and were available at every step. Their web interface is also extremely easy to use. I wish every step of the purchase had been this seamless!

I never leave reviews, but I'm purposefully here to recommend Guy as strongly as possible. He recently helped me secure a HELOC, but this wasn't my first time using his services. It was my third. He helped myself and my husband secure our first mortgage for our first apartment 17 years ago, when we were both freelance, and no one seemed able to help us. He helped us 11 years later when we were ready to sell our apartment and buy and home. And he helped us now, 6 years later with our HELOC. Every domestic milestone in our lives has been with the help of Guy. Believe me, I spoke to numerous people along the way who offered to give us loans or advice at each juncture. They couldn't even compare to the calm support of Guy, and his ability to navigate finances and lenders. I am not a numbers person. These processes cause me much anxiety. With Guy, I understood every step. He has the ability to distill and explain information that makes everything seem manageable. He tells you exactly what you need to do and when. He is calm, available, and reassuring. He has greatly impacted my family's happiness and security. He truly cares about the people he is working with and for. Thank you Guy!
Response from Owner
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and heartfelt words! I truly appreciate your recommendation and are grateful for the opportunity to continue assisting you and your family!
Guy and Katrina were fabulous. We had a difficult journey to get us to the end- and we were first time home-buyers. Guy and his team were available any time we had questions, and responded so quickly. They were patient, kind, and really cared about us as clients. Navigating NYC real estate is an art, and Guy + team really know their stuff. We highly recommend them!!

We really enjoyed working with Guy and his team throughout this process. Guy was so attentive and friendly and available anytime we had questions (which was a lot). He was so patient with us and really took the pain out of what is otherwise a very painful process.
