We couldn’t have asked for a better lending experience and would absolutely recommend Paul and his team to anyone looking to purchase a home!

We had an outstanding experience working with Paul at Rate. He was terrific from start to finish: knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. We’ve now completed two successful transactions with him, and both times he made the process feel seamless and easy.

The mortgage process can be daunting, but Paul and his team were clear and responsive throughout. Each step was clearly outlined and easy to understand, and someone followed-up as soon as possible on any questions or clarifications. Paul did a fantastic job walking me through the tradeoffs of various options, such as fixed rate versus adjustable rate or purchasing points, as well as how to think about refinancing when the time comes. I highly recommend Paul.

Paul is best in class. We’ve worked with three other mortgage brokers prior and are so happy we found him. It is immediately evident when you speak with Paul that he knows his stuff and will do everything he can to get you the best rate (to which he did!) The level of client service was exceptional from start to finish, and we really appreciated how proactive and dedicated he was throughout the entire process. You never have to wait around for Paul to get back to you. Even after closing, he’s still keeping an eye out for ways to get us the best rates possible. We’re really looking forward to continuing to work with him and can’t recommend him highly enough!
Response from Owner
Thank you so much for the incredibly kind words! Working with you was truly a pleasure from start to finish, and I'm absolutely thrilled that we were able to secure such a great outcome together. Hearing that you had a positive experience after working with other mortgage brokers before finding me makes this feedback even more meaningful and rewarding. I genuinely believe in being proactive, responsive, and fully dedicated throughout the entire mortgage process — from our very first conversation all the way through closing and beyond. I'm so glad that commitment came through clearly in your experience, and that you never felt like you had to wait around for answers or updates. That level of communication and dedication is something I truly pride myself on, and it means a great deal to know it made a real difference for you. My goal has always been to ensure that my clients get the absolute best rate possible, and I'm so happy we were able to achieve that together. But as you know, my commitment doesn't stop at closing. I'll absolutely continue to keep a close eye on opportunities and possibilities that could benefit you even further down the road, because that ongoing relationship is just as important to me as the initial process. I truly look forward to continuing to work with you and supporting you in the future. Thank you again so much for the trust you've placed in me and for taking the time to share such a wonderful recommendation — it genuinely means the world! — Paul
I recently completed my second refinancing with Paul, and once again the experience was excellent. The process moved quickly, and his consistent white‑glove support made everything easy from start to finish. Paul was always available, clear, and proactive. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a smooth refinancing process.

Being available, staying proactive, and keeping communication clear throughout the process are things I truly care about, so hearing that those efforts made a difference is incredibly rewarding.

We bought our property using the services of Rate.com. Paul Archibald and his team were awesome. For something as important as a real estate purchase, you need someone who advises you correctly, with honesty and flexibility. That is Paul. Special thanks to Stephanie Motta, she is not only capable, prompt and professional, but a great human being, warm and understanding.
