    Overview

    Guaranteed Rate is a Chicago mortgage banker which allows prospective homeowners to apply for and get approved for a home mortgage online, in addition to providing mortgage calculators, credit scores, and other financial information for consumers to use. The company allows for individuals to apply for a mortgage through their loan application, which allows them to customize the rates and conditions of their loan to fit their specific needs. They then gain access to a free credit score report from the three credit bureaus to assist them in seeking their loan and determining how much of a mortgage they can afford. Using the company's automated underwriting service, individuals who qualify for a mortgage can receive their acceptance letter to purchase a home without waiting for a bank and third party. Guaranteed Rate NMLS ID 2611. For more information go to www.NMLSconsumeraccess.org
