Charlie was phenomenal to work with through the entire home buying process, from a speedy pre-approval process to being their in person for the closing months down the road. He was patient and answered all our questions every step of the way. He helped us research and track rates constantly as the market was shifting sometimes day to day, which is so draining when you are shopping for a house! He was responsive and punctual. I was amazed at his ability to carve out time for us, especially when time was short and working around my crazy teaching schedule. Charlie really helped streamline the process, connected us to people and answers when we needed them, and was reassuring through it all. We will absolutely turn to Charlie when we refinance and we will continue to pass his name along to our loved ones. He is someone we trust and are looking forward to working with again. Thank you Charlie!!!

Charlie knows his craft well and does a great job sharing options in the best interest of the client. I have gone to Charlie for multiple transactions, referring him to other people as well. Most importantly, he is someone I can trust. I would recommend Charlie to anyone looking to purchase their next home.

Just wrapped up another super smooth transaction with Charlie! I appreciate how easy he is to reach, and how willing to go the extra mile. Charlie represents Guild and its offerings well; he's willing to take the time to find the right product and explain the benefits to agent and client alike, and maintains the great communication throughout the entire transaction. Thanks, Charlie!!

Charlie did an amazing job helping us close on our first house. He was very responsive to emails and took the time to explain in depth the process of getting a loan. Charlie went out of his way to expedite forms so we could put of offers. He is very good at his job and is very personally. 10/10 would recommend.
