Mike Houghton

We couldn’t have asked for a better person to help my wife and I navigate the mortgage process. Mike was recommended to us by our realtor, Jamie Eldrett of Ark Realty Group, and we were very happy with our experience. Mike was attentive to our budget and helped us feel comfortable with monthly mortgage payments at varying house prices to make sure we were well informed of the monthly impacts. He was very communicative throughout the process and was quick to give us estimated closing worksheets when we found houses we liked. On the house we purchased, the seller requested a quick closing of less than a month. Mike and his team at Guild went above and beyond to make sure we hit deadlines to ensure a quick and easy close. We would highly recommend Mike to anybody searching for a home and mortgage lending, he goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable with the process!

Mike and his team made the loan process so easy. Not only did they have competitive rates but also were very transparent up front with the total cost of the loan so there were no surprises. Another reason we went with Mike and Guild was because we knew our Loan wouldn't be sold off right away like our previous house loan was with another company. That was important to us because Mike and his team make you feel like you're more than just another transaction. They take care of you before during and after buying the house. Highly recommend working with Mike!

Mike was instrumental in helping us present a strong offer in this crazy market. Without his creativity and extensive knowledge of all loan options available we wouldn't have been able to get our offer accepted on our new home. Mike is knowledgeable responsive and thinks outside the box. I highly recommend him and his team to anyone who wants a boutique mortgage experience where you're more than a set of numbers on a paper. He's truly the best!

Mike provided fantastic service while financing our new home. Mike and his team answered all of our questions thoroughly and thoughtfully, returned our calls quickly, and offered a variety of solutions to fit our unique situation. I recommend anyone looking to finance a home reach out to Mike to get his expert analysis of the current market and available programs that could support your goals. Additionally, Mike and Guild Mortgage look to build relationships that will continue past the current transaction, and I am sure the Guild team will be ready to help with any financing we may need in the future.

Mike Houghton was great to work with for the purchase of our property. He prepared multiple statements for us, and made the entire process very smooth. Also, he was great to communicate with. He was very responsive to email and phone calls, and he worked hard on keeping us on track with requests for information. He was a real pleasure to work with. Highly recommend him.

Mike was very helpful in selling my home. It took a while to get my house ready after 34 years in the house, but Mike was very patient. He made the sale a smooth process and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend him!
