Bryan Kelly at Guaranteed Rate (NMLS #755861) N Westshore Blvd, Tampa

I worked with Bryan for the closing of my home and had a wonderful experience. Bryan is professional, reliable, very responsive and gives extremely valuable and thoughtful advice. I had one of the more complicated cases for getting a mortgage and Bryan stepped me through the process with a tremendous amount of patience. He has great attention to detail and as a result the closing process was super smooth. Everything was well organized and in place when I hit the closing table. Additionally, Bryan was also very responsive post the closing and was available to answer any questions I had. Excellent service! And finally, after two years, when I reached out Bryan for another mortgage related question, he was, as always, super prompt in responding and addressed all my questions. Without a doubt, I would work with Bryan for any and all of my future mortgage needs. Fantastic service and responsiveness! I highly recommend Bryan and value his advise!! Cheers, Karan

We are very glad that we worked with Bryan Kelly from Wintrust Mortgage on our $1.4M home purchase in Hinsdale, IL. He secured a great mortgage deal for us while also helping us to navigate a process that was particularly challenging because I was relocating my family across the country and switching jobs (which lenders categorically hate). Bryan is deeply knowledgeable about lenders’ underwriting standards, as well as the “hot button” missteps that could destroy borrowers’ prospects of securing a loan – of which there are many, some of which seem ludicrous from a common-sense business standpoint (but then again, mortgage underwriters don’t operate based on common sense). I work in finance myself, but I must admit the mindset of mortgage lenders often escapes me; thus, it was highly valuable to have Bryan as an advisor. Don’t liquidate these investments for the down payment, but go ahead and sell those securities; pay off this debt now, but wait to pay off that debt at closing; don’t apply for this other loan, but it’s fine to go ahead and take on that new debt – these were all considerations on which Bryan gave us expert guidance, among many others. In addition to being highly competent, Bryan is responsive, hard-working, and well-connected in the lending industry. He drove a great outcome for us and we would recommend him highly to others.

Bryan Kelly and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were professional, kind, and prompt. We were so impressed with the communication and constant updates. Thank you, Bryan, for making my first experience as a home buyer as smooth as possible!

Buying home for the first time is by far the biggest investment decision I ever made. I read countless articles, spoke to friends, listened to podcasts but when it comes to finding the right mortgage I still had hundreds of questions. Bryan was patient, truly helped me understand my different options. He taught me and put in me in position to make the best financial decision for me. I could not have asked for a better teacher and ally to have on my team while going through the process. I highly recommend Bryan to anyone looking for a new home in Chicago!

I recently purchased my first home with Bryan and his team (thank you too Linda!). Bryan was attentive throughout the entire process. Every phone call/email was returned quickly and he was able to provide me with a full explanation to every question(there were a lot). I felt completely confident in every decision because Bryan was so thorough and made sure I understood all of my options every step of the way. There were no last minute surprises whatsoever, in fact, closing only took an hour. If you are looking for someone honest and knowledgeable that will make the process less intimidating, call Bryan. I will absolutely call him again when the time comes!

I worked with Bryan for my very first mortgage, and when we refinanced 5 years later. He is very knowledgeable, communicates promptly and clearly, and explains all the steps well. Highly recommended!

Working with Bryan Kelly made a complicated task easy for us. He was always very responsive and easy to work with, guiding us through the process. We were very satisfied with the results, and would work with him again in a heartbeat.

If you are looking to buy a house Bryan Kelly is the man to have on your side. My wife and I purchased our first house last year and we could not have done it without Bryan. Before we started shopping Bryan sat down with us and over the course of a few hours explained the process, our options and got us pre-approved. When we found a house it was a foreclosure purchase and the seller (Fannie Mae) was being less then cooperative. Even with the ridiculous deadlines and other trouble that we experienced Bryan helped us through every step of the way. We had to switch our financing plan halfway through the process and Bryan was patient and extremely responsive to all of our requests. I can honestly say we would not have gotten this deal done without Bryan and I am blown away by his level of professionalism and competence. I could not be more pleased with his service and I HIGHLY recommend him every chance I get.

Bryan has been great at helping us understand every little minute detail of the financing of loans and costs associated with a housing purchase. He was always quick to respond and answered all our questions attentively as well. I would definitely recommend his services to family and friends.

From the purchase of my first home in 2009 to the continued search for another home in 2014. Bryan has always been there for me every step of the way. He is always accessible which is crucial in this industry and is always willing to take the time to answer my questions. His experience as an educator parlays directly into his work as he can help you understand all aspects of the sometimes complicated lending process. I would highly recommend Bryan Kelly to anyone considering buying a home.
