Derek Taylor at First United Mortgage Group (NMLS #223499) Grogans Mill Rd, The Woodlands

It was a wonderful experience working with Derek Taylor's team at Guaranteed Rate. It was our first time requesting a loan, so we had many questions that were very clearly explained. From the first moment we requested information, Paula Williams, who was our assigned associate, was returning our call in a blink of an eye and showed sooooo much patience with my husband and I, if there was something that she didn't know she was very willing to investigate and get back with the information, I was so relieved to have her on our side. Nonetheless Derek was also very detailed and informative when we asked for more questions. We definitely will work again with them whenever we require their services again, because they gave us a lot of confidence in the way they all work! Thank you Guaranteed Rate!!!

Derek and team are top-notch. What I liked the best out of them is the customer-centric approach that made us feel great and confident that we were getting not only the best deal, but also the best service throughout the purchasing process. They kept us informed with transparent communications and always found solutions for every issue experienced in the purchasing process. I highly recommend GR, Derek and team and will use them again on our next purchase

We had the pleasure of working with Derek and his team. It was a contingent sale and very stressful, but they made sure we were at ease during every step of the whole process. I would highly recommend Guaranteed Rate and especially Derek's team to anyone looking to purchase a new home. They were great.

Paula Williams made my lending experience an absolute joy. She was wonderful when it came to explaining the process to me and she made sure that I understood what was happening every step of the way. All phone calls and e-mails were returned in a very expeditious manner and I was never left to "figure things out" on my own. As a first time home buyer not knowing a lot of things, I was confident that Paula would never steer me wrong and I trusted her completely. The entire process from start to finish was quick and exceptionally painless. I will definitely be going back to Guaranteed Rate for all future home purchases and I would recommend them to anyone who asks me for a lender. Thank you Paula and Derek for making my first home buying experience a pleasant one.

Working with Derek's team was such a refreshing experience after dealing with the usual companies out there. Guaranteed Rate are very professional, great communicators, reliable with deadlines and follow up. We absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a competitive mortgage and great service.

The Guaranteed Rate team was helpful every step of the way, especially Paula Williams. I would have been incredibly stressed out if it hadn't been for her guidance. She always responded promptly to questions and concerns, with clear and thoughtful answers. Not everyone on the team was as responsive, but Paula more than made up for it. The only drawback was working with different people as the loan progressed through the various stages. Again, having Paula as that anchor made it tolerable. I also liked being able to use the secure portal to share information and track the progress of our loan. All in all, a very good experience and I would recommend them.

We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end thanks to Derek and his team! Every person we worked with was beyond helpful in answering our questions and making the process as easy possible. I cannot say enough great things about them - highly recommend!

Paula, Derek and the team with Guaranteed Rate provided outstanding service to my wife and I during the loan process to purchase our new home. They made the process extremely easy for us and were always available and eager to help any time we needed. I highly recommend their services!

I am a first time home buyer and Guaranteed Rate did an outstanding job!! They walked my Fiancé and I through the entire process and treated us like we were family. We loved that we could call them for anything and they would even answer the phone late after working hours. I was very nervous about picking a lender at the beginning, but my gut instinct told me to stick with Guaranteed Rate and so thats what I did. Im very glad I made that decision. They have a great team and nobody will beat them! Great people to work with and I will definitely be using them again one day in the future! Thank you for all of your hard work and help! I will be recommending you to new homebuyers in the future with a perfect score!
