As a first time homebuyer, my husband and I didn't know what we were doing, didn't understand all the numbers; so much ado about buying a home. When I found Guaranteed Rate and met Leonard Briones, all our unknowing was thrown out of the window. Leonard was the all knowing master explainer we needed it to get through this long and rough process. Actually, just dealing with Leonard, it didn't seem like it was rough at all because he was so patient with us, never missed a call or never didn't return our calls in a timely manner - he always made us feel like a good friend. The amount of knowledge he has will help you really understand the homebuying process...and the RATES HE FINDS - o.m.g. he can really get you a great rate. I highly recommend that you work with Leonard no matter how many homes you've bought before. The work provided is A++++ and you won't regret it!

Leonard and his team are amazing! This is the third time that they have helped my husband and I with a loan. But I appreciate about Leonard is that he is very thorough in the beginning so that there are no surprises throughout the process. When he gives you an estimate you can expect that it is accurate and there will be no hidden fees. He always makes himself available by text or phone call and he uses this really awesome website that gives you a great visual of what you are paying and where are all of the fees are going. Don’t be discouraged if you are a first time home buyer or have an unconventional type of loan. Leonard helped us get into our home with a first time home buyer loan and since then we have been able to get a lower interest-rate, remove the PMI, and get a second so that we could do some home improvements. We are still paying less than our initial mortgage!

We highly recommend Leonard and his team at Guaranteed Rate specially for first time home buyers like us. They guided us every step. We were impressed at how knowledgeable, organized and detailed he was at explaining the different rate options. He's very hands-on and responsive 24/7. The turn around time to get pre-approved and have our loan underwritten was smooth and extremely fast!
You won't regret working with Leonard and his team. They'll forever be our trusted mortgage lender.
