Christian Menard at Guaranteed Rate (NMLS #1470201)

Christian always responded so quickly and had all the information I asked for. I don't believe I ever mentioned my house address in my emails during and after closing, yet he knew exactly what house the email was referring to. All of that shows a large amount of organisation on his part.

Christian and his team are the best in business. They helped us close our offer in a record amount of time and insured that we got the best possible rate. He is very communicative and answers texts even on weekends/late evenings and goes the extra mile in closing the deal. Christian worked with us very patiently and explained all the crucial points to us during the entire process. His team (especially Amber) are very thorough and provide a systematic list of items needed to close the loan. Big thanks to Christian and everyone at Guaranteed Rate for helping us buy our first house!

Christian was fantastic in helping me purchase as a first-time home buyer. His communication was amazing and he went the extra mile throughout the entire transaction. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or refinance!

In March we purchased a condo in SB East Beach and we were lucky to find and work with Christian for that transaction. So when it came to our second purchase - it was a no brainer who we wanted to work with. The second property purchase was different than our first, for starters the funds borrowed was twice as much and the SB housing market was now twice as competitive.Christian's extensive knowledge of mortgage instruments paired with an expansive Santa Barbara network was able to use our preferred financing option to deliver a solid competitive offer and seal the deal.Christian works tirelessly until your deal is done. When he was on vacation with his family he called from the plane to check-in on us because he knew we were signing escrow documents. He also planned to have a backup in the event a questions arose and he was unavailable.Christian is our mortgage broker for life.
