“You won’t find a team more capable or efficient than the Hamilton Pod at Rate—Eric Hamilton, Jessie, Tom, Meme, and Jody.”
You won’t find a team more capable or efficient than the Hamilton Pod at Rate—Eric Hamilton, Jessie, Tom, Meme, and Jody. Eric helped us put together a strong, competitive offer, backed by a 14-day close that honestly felt ambitious at the time. The seller was surprised—and it’s likely what got our offer accepted. Even more impressive, the team didn’t just promise it… they got us to closing in 11 days.
They’re attentive, thorough, and genuinely kind to work with. At no point did I feel pushed into anything. Every step of the process came with an offer to hop on a call—not just a quick email—so we could actually understand what was happening, ask questions, and feel confident in our decisions. And they gave us options—so we could choose what made the most sense for us.
Buying a home right now is stressful, especially with low inventory and higher rates , but working with this team made a huge difference. We were lucky to be referred to them, and it ended up being the smoothest part of the entire process.
Response from Owner
Rachel, it was a genuine pleasure helping you put together that competitive offer and beating our own timeline to close in just 11 days. I'm so glad our team's approach made you feel supported and informed every step of the way. Enjoy every moment in your new home, and don't hesitate to reach out whenever you need anything else!
“With Eric Hamilton and his team as our guide, we went from application to clear to close in nearly 12 days, and the process was PAINLESS.”
As first-time homebuyers, entering that process can feel extremely daunting and wrought with roadblocks. With Eric Hamilton and his team as our guide, we went from application to clear to close in nearly 12 days, and the process was PAINLESS.
The team was always available and quick to respond to any questions we had (whether email, call, or text) and we received nothing but extremely helpful responses and detail where it was needed, especially when it came to mortgage monthly payment estimates on several properties.
Meeting with Eric first gives you a preview of what working with the rest of the team will be like:
- Courteous
- Caring
- Seeking the best outcome for YOU
Then, we had the pleasure of meeting Jody who went above and beyond by being on calls with us with other agencies and being patient as ever each step of the way.
Finally, working alongside Mark and Adam was just amazing. Underwriting and document submission can be so annoying and painful, especially when it comes to when to submit those, but with the online secure portal submission and these two being available for follow-ups on anything needing to be modified or appended upon (which we didn't need because it was done right the first time thanks to their help!) was so greatly appreciated. Any calls with Adam especially were quick, easy, and concise with next steps.
Overall, Eric, Jody, Mark, and Adam somehow did the impossible: Made applying for a mortgage and the following paperwork enjoyable (which feels so strange to say), but it's the truth. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars.
“Eric Hamilton and his team were dedicated to getting me HOME! … My family has a place to call HOME and it's thanks to the Good LORD and the hard work of Guaranteed Rate's Eric Hamilton's team!”
Eric Hamilton and his team were dedicated to getting me HOME!
My experience started well over 1.5 years ago. I had a bit of a complex case that included everything from selling a home, complicated financial situations, credit building history, etc.
Pre-approval was straight-forward. I had giving my information. due to the complex nature of my financial situation we had to do manual underwriting. After I had given them all the documentation they asked for and I was able to get the pre-approval.
Due to the pandemic, my pre-approval amount was (though it would have been great 1-2 years prior) was limiting the homes we were able to see. Eric and his team went to work to increase (staying within my comfort zone) the amount I was pre-approved for.
After finding a home and putting in an offer, about two weeks prior to closing we hit a road bump and asked for an extension from the sellers. They cancelled the contract without a discussion!
Guaranteed Rate stay with us. Ultimately, this year all issues were resolved and we were able to close within 30 days of finding the home we LOVE! At closing, our lawyers mentioned that it was one of the quickest closings she had been in!
Thank you to Eric, Tom, Adam, Juliet, Mark and anyone else I may have missed. My family has a place to call HOME and it's thanks to the Good LORD and the hard work of Guaranteed Rate's Eric Hamilton's team!
“To say we had a great experience with Eric’s team would be an understatement. They were exceptional from start to finish.”
To say we had a great experience with Eric’s team would be an understatement. They were exceptional from start to finish. Also, I tend not to leave reviews unless they are truly deserving.
Early on, we were in discussion with both Eric’s team and a large bank…it took the large bank 4 days to respond to our initial discussion and more like 40mins for Eric’s team to follow up with next steps. This set the tone for the entire process.
We avoided all of the many horror stories I had heard from friends about the financing process when buying a home, largely because of the quality and diligence of Eric’s team.
Highlights
-Speed of response: Eric and team were always willing and able to connect on anything throughout the process - even in the evenings when it was easier for me to call, given work.
-Info Collection: Everything was collected digitally, speeding up the entire process
-Info Processing: Eric’s team was on top of where we were in getting documents and really helpful in updating our to-dos as well as where we needed follow up documents
-Interest Rate: Eric was able to lock us into a rate that was ~75bps (0.75%) less than what the competing large bank had discussed with us initially and ~50bps lower than another large bank we contacted.
-Hand-holding: Complications arise through the process, and the closer you get towards the end, the more critical it is that you have a partner who can adapt and respond to changes so you can close on time - whether that be closing credits or bills of sale for furniture from the sellers…Eric’s team, particularly Adam, made these last minute changes in financing seamless.
Closing: Because much of the process was done digitally, we were able to do some of the closing documents online. This meant closing was faster and easier than I imagine it would have been otherwise.
Check ups: Eric and team continue to check in on us to make sure everything went smoothly even after closing.
“Tom and Eric went above and beyond and were willing to think outside the box to find a way to make our approval happen when others couldn’t.”
I cannot say enough good things about Tom and Eric! After being denied three separate times by other lenders, I honestly wasn’t sure we would be able to make this happen. Tom and Eric went above and beyond and were willing to think outside the box to find a way to make our approval happen when others couldn’t.
From the very beginning, they have been absolutely amazing to work with. They have answered every question I’ve had, often incredibly quickly, and have been nothing but kind, patient, helpful, and professional throughout the entire process. They never made me feel like I was bothering them, even with all of my questions, and they always took the time to explain things clearly.
What I appreciated most was how transparent and honest they were with us. We always knew where things stood, what was needed, and what to expect next. Buying a home can be incredibly stressful, especially after being denied multiple times, but having Tom and Eric in our corner made such a huge difference.
They didn’t just tell us no—they looked for a way to make it work. That level of effort and dedication meant so much to us. I would absolutely recommend Tom and Eric to anyone looking for lenders who genuinely care about their clients and are willing to go the extra mile. We are incredibly grateful for everything they have done for us! ❤️

I never felt stressed, overwhelmed or rushed to get what was needed. Every aspect of the process was smooth and organized. I highly recommend Eric and his team for any mortgage needs you have. He was referred to me. I was worried as we were in different states. That did not make a difference. The closing was great. Met at the Buffalo Wild Wings between where I work and her next appt for another closing. Staff there were wonderful as they did not care we were there for business.
“Constant communication and their online tool allowed us to be on top of things and feel stress-free throughout the whole process.”
Eric and his team were the best!
Constant communication and their online tool allowed us to be on top of things and feel stress-free throughout the whole process. In addition, Eric makes himself available 7 days a week from early morning to pretty late at night (he took a couple of my calls just past 9pm!). You can't go wrong choosing to work with him.
Thank you Team Eric!
“I am a realtor and have referred Eric Hamilton and his team to many many clients who were always happy with their service!!”
I cannot understate the careful attention I got through the process of getting a loan for my own personal home.

“When it looked as though my deal wouldn’t go through, my team rallied and pushed me past the finish line.”
If you are looking for a lender, guaranteed rate is your one stop shop. My team at Rate helped me navigate through all of the ups and downs of the mortgage process. From the thorough communication to strict attention to detail my team got the job done. When it looked as though my deal wouldn’t go through, my team rallied and pushed me past the finish line. Eric and the rest of the team, I couldn’t have done it without you and I am in your debt. Thanks guys!!!

“They are were always there evenings and even weekends for my questions and needs. I truly recommend them for your mortgage loan needs.”
Eric and the Rate Team worked with me this summer to apply for and approve a loan for our new home in Rancho Mirage, California. The process was lengthy and detailed but the Team at Rate were amazing in their help and responsiveness to making the application process successful. They are were always there evenings and even weekends for my questions and needs. I truly recommend them for your mortgage loan needs.

Thank you for your review, Hank! We're glad our team's responsiveness and weekend support made your Rancho Mirage home loan successful.
“Both guys checked on me during the down/quiet time just to see if I needed anything. I will definitely recommend Eric and his team and will use for my future lending needs.”
I really enjoyed working with Eric and his team. At first I was worried, being my first time buying, that I had a whole team to work with but each person, explained their role, what they would do, what I could expect, etc. Adam was the one that then got me through the home stretch. Both guys checked on me during the down/quiet time just to see if I needed anything. I will definitely recommend Eric and his team and will use for my future lending needs.
“The most impressive aspect of my experience was the consistent and clear communication throughout the process.”
Thank you Eric! You and your team did an excellent job. The most impressive aspect of my experience was the consistent and clear communication throughout the process. As a Realtor with 20 years of experience, it is rare to find a lender who maintains this level of responsiveness once a transaction is under contract.
Thank you for your professionalism. I will certainly include you among our preferred lenders.

“I had an excellent experience working with Eric and his team from start to finish. Communication was top-notch—every question I had was answered promptly and thoroughly”
I had an excellent experience working with Eric and his team from start to finish. Communication was top-notch—every question I had was answered promptly and thoroughly, which really put my mind at ease throughout the entire process. They were incredibly responsive, always providing timely updates on the progress of my loan, and I never had to chase them down for information.
The process was also remarkably quick. I was impressed with how efficiently everything moved forward, and they were able to close my loan in a fraction of the time I anticipated. It’s clear this lender values transparency and customer satisfaction, and I couldn’t be happier with how smoothly everything went. Highly recommend if you're looking for a lender who truly keeps you informed every step of the way!

“Those guys over there are very customer focused and all about making sure the process is seamless. They answer any questions we have with eagerness.”
I worked directly with Adam Quinoes from Eric's team. Those guys over there are very customer focused and all about making sure the process is seamless. They answer any questions we have with eagerness. They never seem bothered by anything we had to ask. Believe that we asked a lot of questions. This is our second time going thru Eric's team. We will be back in any future buys that we make.
“Eric and his team was nothing short of amazing! Their communication is top notch and they are always available for any questions.”
Eric and his team was nothing short of amazing! Their communication is top notch and they are always available for any questions. They were able have everything ready for my close early, and I was able to close early! Highly recommend, his team will not disappoint you.
“I never thought this process could be so smooth, as our last time was horrible. They always reiterate that if you have any questions to contact them, and they mean it!”
This is our second time buying a home, and let me tell you how much of a pleasure it has been to work with Eric, and his team! Today I was going through the closing documents with Adam, and he was so thorough, and answered all my questions. I never thought this process could be so smooth, as our last time was horrible. They always reiterate that if you have any questions to contact them, and they mean it! Do yourself a favor, and use them! It will cut down on your moving headaches.
“Eric's team was highly communicative, responsive, and extremely professional. I would absolutely recommend working with their team.”
The Eric Hamilton team are thorough and great to work with. Being a first time homeowner, this process was extremely daunting and adding an under 30 day close to the situation was very stressful. Eric's team was highly communicative, responsive, and extremely professional. I would absolutely recommend working with their team.
“The team at Eric Hamilton was very professional and punctual. If it were not for Eric getting me a pre-approval as quickly as he did”
The team at Eric Hamilton was very professional and punctual. If it were not for Eric getting me a pre-approval as quickly as he did, I might not have been first in line to put an offer on a house. With their help, everything went smoothly!
