“Wendy is absolutely amazing! She proactively contacted me when she saw an opportunity to save me money, made the process seamless, and truly goes above and beyond.”

Wendy Erickson at Guaranteed Rate is absolutely amazing! She’s helped me not once, but twice—first when I purchased my home two years ago, and now with refinancing at a lower rate. I didn’t even have to reach out—Wendy proactively contacted me when she saw an opportunity to save me money. She was available every step of the way, made the process seamless, and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. I can’t recommend her enough!

Response from Owner

Thank you so much!

“She and her team worked with us and we not only got funded...we closed early. We finally have a place to live in Chicago. I and my wife cannot thank her enough. Beyond highly recommend.”

My wife Shaun and myself are forever grateful to Wendy. Our former lender was a nightmare. A complete nightmare. We finally asked to be pointed to another lender who could help us after numerous issues with the former lender (and failed closings of more than three condos) which included telling our new lender to not tell the truth about my retirement status. We were pointed to Wendy and Rate. She understood our complete frustration in what should have been a smooth process starting in March. She and her team worked with us and we not only got funded...we closed early. We finally have a place to live in Chicago and we are coming home for retirement thanks to Wendy Erickson, her crew and everyone at Rate. I and my wife cannot thank her enough. Beyond highly recommend. Hans Summers and Shaun Landry Summers. New Condo Owners via Rate.

First time buying a house and they made it both fast and easy. our home buying went very quickly and when everything came down to the very last minute they pulled through.
