Guild Mortgage - Faith Watkins Ne Multnomah St, Portland

I am a frist-time buyer and Faith (and her team) took excellent care of me. She is kind, friendly and knowledgeable. She took her time to answer my questions and explain the process to me. She helped me make decisions like what mortgage option was right for me, when to lock in my rate, and what debts to pay off to get the strongest loan. I always felt like she had my best interests in mind. She was also very prompt with responding to emails or phone calls from both me and my Realtor. Buying my first house as a single gal was overwhelming at times, but I am so thankful that Faith was by my side. She is a stellar loan officer and a terrific human being. Thank you, Faith & Sarah!

I just refinanced with Faith Watkins, of Guild Mortgage Company, and she is awesome. She worked her buns off for us even given our not so stellar financial situation, and went above and beyond for us with her persistent communications with the underwriters. She was more than patient with us, and gave us a clear set of priorities to work on so that we would easily qualify for our refinance. Once she gave us the thumbs up, she made the process go so smoothly. She checked in with us often, always with her cheerful messages. Faith obviously loves what she does, and knows how to do it well. Now we have a new 30 year loan at a great rate, a lower monthly mortgage payment, no more mortgage insurance to pay, and an extra $10,000 to spend on some home improvements! I would recommend her without reservation.

Faith is by far the best mortgage broker I've worked with. She is hard working, honest and driven. She pre qualifies buyers quick and makes the process smooth.. She has a large network of lenders to get a buyer the best loan available. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a home loan. Even, if you are not ready to buy she will give you a list of what you need to do to get one. Call her today!

We worked with Faith from out of state and in a different time zone to help our son with his first home. Faith was very helpful in answering our questions and looking into every detail that arose. She was very responsive through phone calls and emails and helped us make the best financial decisions of our specific options. Having purchased several houses I would highly recommend her and would use her again without hesitation.

Fast facts: - Great for first time buyers - Very personable - Patient - Accessible - She is a deal maker and I highly recommend her Faith set up the loan for our new duplex! As first time buyers, we started with a family-used broker, but he didn't seem to care and didn't want to put in the time, even our real estate agent was having issues with him. Our real estate agent then recommended Faith to us and it was perfect fit. She was very understanding of where we were coming from, what we needed in a loan, and what an emotional roller coaster the whole process is (it's the nature of home buying). Although this is something that is not to be taken advantage of, she was really there for us no matter how early or late it got; she understands timing can make or break a deal. On top of that, our loan was extra complicated because not all those involved were in state (or even on the same continent!) but Faith made it happen. She answered any and all questions I had (and trust me, there was a lot!) and I came out of the situation with a fabulous home/loan, feeling educated about the process and an overall sense of happiness. I will definitely use her again if I get the chance!

Faith is great!!! The whole process with financing our first home was so much easier than we had expected. There are so many horror stories about how stressful a home search can be. Faith ensured that the financial side of our home buying process was clear and it added no stress to the actual footwork of searching for the home. Thank you Faith!

Faith Watkins is a gem! She is super knowledgable in all things mortgage loan related and was very informative throughout the entire process. We were a bit of a challenging case, but she was so patient, supportive and encouraging until the end. At one point, we hit a bit of a road block and she assured us that she would handle it correctly and promptly; even when we thought we might not be able to close at the expected time, she made it happen and made a grand attempt at making sure everything was as smooth as it could possibly be. She gets 10 stars in my opinion!

Faith and Kaylee were incredible! As a first time home buyer, they shone a light in what could have been a dark tunnel of confusion for me, had I worked with a different lender. Every step of this process was so clear, and I felt completely supported at every turn. Having a stellar team on the lending side allowed me to focus my energy on finding the perfect place! Thank you for everything! I recommend this team to any and all.

Faith was amazing and kept us informed every step of the way. She was very responsive to questions and so much knowledge to help guide us through the process. She is also just a genuinely pleasant person to be around which makes what could be a pretty stressful experience very easy.

Faith was attentive and awesome for my original purchase and for my refinance just a year later!! She made the process smooth and easy, was always there to answer questions and made sure I felt good about what was happening and where I was in the process. I can't recommend her and Guild Mortgage enough!! My realtor, Andrea Langen is a great resource as well, I recommend them both as a team to get you what you need!
