“Chase was incredibly thorough and made sure I understood each detail of the mortgage process. His responsiveness was top notch, and the entire process was handled extremely efficiently.”
I recently had the pleasure of working with Chase McElligott at Rate Mortgage to finance my new home, and I could not be more impressed. Chase was incredibly thorough and made sure I understood each detail of the mortgage process and that every step was handled properly. His responsiveness was top notch; no matter what time of day or what type of question, Chase was prompt to provide thoughtful, helpful answers. Last but not least, the entire process was handled extremely efficiently, and I was able to close on time without any surprises. I would highly recommend working with Chase for your mortgage needs.
“On April 1 I was told I could not qualify for a home loan.... I found Chase and he said he could 'get it done'! CHASE GOT IT DONE! Today, May 1, I 'closed' on my new home.”
Hello everyone! On April 1, 2025 I was told that I could not qualify for a home loan, but didn't give me a valid reason as to why (I won't mention the lenders name), they just completely "gave up" on me. I found "Chase" at "Rate" and explained my dilemma. He said based on what I presented, that he could "get it done"! CHASE GOT IT DONE! Today, May 1, 2025 I "closed" on my new home thanks to Chase. If you have been turned down before, then call upon Chase to help you figure out some things so that he can "GET IT DONE "for you too. Thank you Chase at Rate!
“He was incredibly attentive, sympathetic, detail-oriented, supportive, and the best advocate we could have hoped for. We had bumps along the road and Chase was there every step.”
Chase McElligott was the best part of my husband and I buying our home! He was incredibly attentive, sympathetic, detail-oriented, supportive, and the best advocate we could have hoped for. We had bumps along the road and Chase was there every step of the way. He always answered our questions and concerns, no matter how many we had. We even had bumps that came from other companies where they were not doing their job properly or in a timely fashion. Even though Chase had to wait on their documents/approval before we could go on to the next phase, he consistently contacted them, asked for updates, and let that other company know his and our concerns. My husband and I are now in a wonderful home. It was all thanks to Chase, his determination, his love for his job, and his willingness to be our number one advocate. If you are concerned or worried about which mortgage company/person you should trust, choose Chase McElligott! I know we will every time. Thank you, Chase!

We’ve now worked with Chase McElligott and his team at Guaranteed Rate for two home purchases, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly! They did an excellent job educating us throughout the entire process, keeping us informed every step of the way, and making sure we always understood what was needed and what came next.

“Great communication and maximum effort are the two ways to describe my experience with Chase [...]. He went above and beyond by always being available and expediting our closing.”
Great communication and maximum effort are the two ways to describe my experience with Chase and the rest of the Rate team. First and foremost, Chase provided us with clear and honest rate options. He went above and beyond by always being available (even weekend evenings), talking directly with the sellers agent about our appeal as a buyer, and expediting our closing to meet the needs of my business travel. Chase was the leader of a great team that worked together to create a great experience for us. I highly recommend Chase and the Rate team!

“Chase was excellent. We stayed in touch over 6 months waiting to refinance. Rates fell and Chase was able to act fast, lock us in, and we were cleared to close in 12 days.”
Chase was excellent throughout the experience. We stayed in touch over the course of 6 months as we tracked rates, waiting to refinance. It just so happened that rates fell into our target zone a day before my wife and I left the country for 10 days. Chase was able to act fast and get us locked in and we were cleared to close in 12 days. The process was easy and Chase and his team did a great job working with us. I would highly recommend Chase to anyone looking to get a mortgage or refinance their current mortgage.

Our mortgage specialist Chase McElligott was fantastic. He took time to answer all of my questions (and I had a lot of them), run through lots of hypothetical scenarios, and make sure we were getting the best mortgage for our needs. I was cautioned against using a larger, non-local lender because I was told I may not be able to get a hold of some one when I really needed them. That was not the case with Chase; he was always quick to respond and made sure I knew how to get in touch with him.
