Let’s find the right home loan for you

We have loan options to fit every situation, from down payment assistance programs for first-time homebuyers to government-sponsored programs for military families and rural residents or jumbo loans in high-cost markets.

Down payment assistance

Down payment assistance

If you’re purchasing your first home, you have options to buy without saving a full down payment. Down payment assistance (DPA) programs can help with your down payment in the form of a loan or grant that is often forgiven over time.
VA

VA

If you’re an active member of the military or a veteran, a VA loan can help you save money with no down payment and lower closing costs. VA loans also have lower interest rates, meaning you’ll save money over the life of your loan. A VA loan is a program created and guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) specifically for eligible military veterans, service members and their spouses.

All loans are subject to underwriter approval; terms and conditions may apply. Subject to change without notice.

I cannot recommend Krystal and the Guild Mortgage team HIGHLY ENOUGH!

They guided us through every step of the process with patience, clear communication, and expert advice. Whether it was navigating negotiations, scheduling showings, or handling paperwork, they made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Their attention to detail, local market expertise, and unwavering dedication truly set them apart. Thanks to them, we found our dream home — and we couldn’t be happier!
