Guild Mortgage originates and services residential mortgages across the United States, helping families achieve homeownership through direct lending relationships. Founded in 1960 as a single office in San Diego, the company has grown to become one of the nation's leading independent mortgage lenders, serving communities nationwide with in-house origination and servicing capabilities.
The company offers a range of loan products including conventional mortgages, FHA loans, VA loans, and USDA loans. It has helped over 392,000 families finance home purchases and maintains a servicing portfolio exceeding $100 billion. Guild Mortgage has been recognised as Zillow's most five-star rated lender for three consecutive years.
The company operates with local loan officers embedded in communities they serve, maintaining direct relationships with borrowers from initial application through the life of their loan. This model emphasises personalised service and familiarity with local market conditions rather than centralised processing.
