This was our first time buying a home and we went into it nervous and overwhelmed about what to expect. Brenda went above and beyond throughout the entire process and made it simple and stress free. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Leslie M. - Culver City, CA | Dec 2021
Our Guaranteed lending officer, Brenda, was absolutely amazing. She was extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful every single step of the house buying process. She made me feel as though she was just as invested in us getting our dream, as we were. Even my realtor adored Brenda and we are all extremely grateful we went with Guaranteed Rate to procure our house. If you want a lending officer to not only help you, but fight for you when an issue arises, then I would recommend Brenda to anyone and everyone that will listen.

Competent, knowledgeable support throughout the process: but the real reason I keep coming back is because of Brenda Montgomery in the Pasadena office. Friendly, upbeat, fast response, professional, knowledgeable, goes out of her way. I never feel like just another loan, but like a good friend. As long as Brenda's around, I will keep coming back.

We could not have had a better guide through the process than Brenda Montgomery. She originally helped with the financing of our house 10 years ago, and when we reached out this time for refinancing, she exceeded our expectations this time, too.

We have worked with Brenda Montgomery on several properties. She is always accessible, listens carefully, provides multiple options, and works very quickly. Throughout the loan process, Brenda’s communication was timely and helpful. She fully supports from beginning to end. Beyond her professionalism, Brenda is a kind, caring and compassionate person who makes a challenging process less stressful. In the future, I will only use Brenda and recommend her to anyone looking for a loan!

I felt very lucky to have Brenda as my mortgage broker. She is extremely responsive, knowledgeable, patient and thorough. As a first-time home buyer, she made the loan side of the process much easier and allowed me to focus on other aspects of the home buying process. I will definitely recommend her to my friends and colleagues when they have home financing needs. Thank you Brenda!

Brenda Montgomery was a pleasure to work with. She was very thorough and professional. I appreciate the ease that the process was completed. Thank you.
Gerri K. | October 2018
Brenda Montgomery did what three other loan officers could not. We shopped our home mortgage with four different lenders. Brenda was the only one who found us the loan we wanted at the rate we wanted. It was difficult for us as we are both freelance musicians with our own business with varying income. She made it very easy and is so great at keeping everyone calm when it feels like nothing is going your way. Guaranteed Rate is lucky to have her. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
Robert S., October 2018
Brenda goes above and beyond and was amazing to work with! I've already recommended her to friends and family.
Tricia L. | September 2018
Brenda Montgomery and staff were fantastic. They were very patient, carefully explaining the process many times until I finally was able to understand what I needed to do and why. Brenda and staff made an unfamiliar and, for me, a difficult procedure go smoothly and in a timely matter. I Entered into and then out of 2 escrows until I settled on a third house - all within 6 weeks and Brenda just took my indecision in stride and started a new one each time. I can’t praise Brenda enough for all her hard work and helping me obtain my new home.
Jennifer R. | August 2018
Simply can’t say enough about our loan officer, Brenda Montgomery. As a first time home buyer, I didn’t know the first thing about the process. Brenda was beyond patient in walking me through each and every step. She really sacrificed her time - and probably her patience! - to ensure I understood everything that was going on and was comfortable along the way. I trusted that she was fighting for my husband and I to get the best deal possible on our loan and that even when we hit a few bumps along the way, she was working tirelessly to fix it. She’s an A+ broker and someone I would highly recommend to any home buyer - new or experienced!
Nasim C. | September 2018
Brenda and her team were wonderful. This was my first time getting a mortgage and they took the time to clearly and thoroughly answer every question I had, and I had a lot of them.
Laurence K. - August | 2018
Brenda was amazing! As a first time buyer, I felt very taken care of and supported.
Laura K. | June 2018
My favorite mortgage broker is Brenda Montgomery. She has been in the loan business for over 30 years, knows all the programs that are available, and educates you on what documents she must package for the underwriter to obtain the finest possible loan. Best part, she is a problem solver and is able to get exceptions made which is nearly impossible today.
