When we entered house hunting, the entire aspect of mortgage was overwhelming and new to us. We were clueless as to where to begin. That was till we met Kim Pettigrew from Guaranteed Rate Affinity. She made the entire process easier to understand, by patiently explaining to us all the basics of how mortgage works, what are the different loan options and provided a comparative analysis. She guided us through the documentation process and prepared us well. She is very proficient with so many years of experience in mortgage and ensured that we got the best financing option to meet our needs. She’s very detail oriented and always has the client’s best interest in mind. She was always reachable and was  very patient in answering all our questions. She stretches the extra mile every time.

She helped us navigate through the whole process all the way till closing and made the whole experience a lot less stressful than it should have been. We absolutely recommend working with her.

I was first introduced to Kim by my real estate agent earlier this year. At that point I was dealing with my previous loan agent trying to obtain details on what type of loan (annual rate, loan amount, current market condition, etc.) I can be pre-approved for. I went through 3 transactions with my previous lender and experienced extremely stressful situations where documents were requested at the last minute and was constantly told that there is a risk to meeting the loan deadlines. With that experience, I was sure that the next process would be similar. When we began our application with Kim, we uploaded the required documents and were prompted to provide banking passwords. This made us uncomfortable and hold off on the process. As the home buying experience moved forward, it became quite evident that the bank statements were essential for Kim to move forward. We were able to get her on the phone quickly and work around this discomfort by uploading the bank statements instead of releasing our banking passwords. From that point forward, Kim was available whenever we needed her. She really understood how important buying a home is for an individual and was very intentional about making the loan experience a comfortable one. Kim was there to answer all of our questions and explain in detail what each inquiry meant in the application process. The only minor issue we experienced throughout the loan process was with negotiating the right date with the seller. Her team introduced us to the Fast Close process where we had the ability to review the closing documents before we signed. Kim is an outstanding individual who is passionate about her job and understands the impact her work has on her customers. She is very thoughtful and ensure that her customers understand all of the details of the loan. She is very transparent about the fees, the mortgage rates, the time lines, and everything else that goes in to buying a home. I can't thank Kim enough for making this experience a memorable one! THANK YOU!

Happy customer
Kim amazed us with her professionalism, honesty and quality of work. Her entire team is that way.
We have closed escrow on our first home in record time and everything went so smooth.
This was our first home purchase and we haven't felt stressed or under pressure. Not to mention that we got the best interest rate out there!
We highly recommend Kim and her team and we will definitely work with her in the future.

I'll first start that I'm a type of person that doesn't like to read. So the thought about buying a house, the process, the terms, etc. is kind of stressful. Kim basically made the entire process easy. Every time I have a question, I get an answer, maximum around 3H I guess. She takes a phone call even at 9PM which amazes me the most.

The entire process was very quick as well. As soon as provide the requested documents, it's promptly passed on to the underwriter. Escrow was closed in 25 days even if there was a situation in Appraisal Contingency.

I think I got the best rate too. Overall Kim is not only good professionally but as a person as well. Very likable and a breeze to work with. I don't think I'll even look at other lenders if I ever refinance or buy another property.

She is a pleasure to work with and her staff is awesome, too! In short, Kim rocks in our book!
