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 is extremely knowledgable, and eager to help. He is an expert and very fast. In addition, he is very friendly and a pleasure to work with.

It has been 20 years since our last purchase, and the process was quite different. We greatly appreciate Mike Houghton's understanding of the specific needs of clients close to retirement. The team was helpful to us by explaining in detail the various steps of the process and the roles of all the professionals we would be interacting with. We highly recommend working with Guild mortgage .
