Guild Mortgage

Guild Mortgage is an independent mortgage banking firm that originates and services residential home loans for individuals and families across the United States. Founded in 1960 in San Diego as a single office, the company has operated for more than six decades and has helped over 392,000 families achieve homeownership. Its loan servicing portfolio surpasses $100 billion.

The company's product range covers the full homeownership journey, including conventional loans as well as government-backed FHA, VA and USDA loans. Guild Mortgage originates and services loans in-house, which allows it to maintain direct relationships with borrowers from application through the life of the loan rather than passing them between institutions.

Service is delivered through local loan officers who work within the communities they serve, reflecting a stated emphasis on personalised attention and an understanding of local market conditions. The company describes itself as mission-driven, founded with the aim of helping families reach homeownership, and has been recognised by Zillow as its most five-star rated lender for three consecutive years.

As a non-bank, independent lender, Guild Mortgage operates across the United States in residential mortgage lending and mortgage banking, spanning origination, servicing and the broader financial services and housing sectors.
