Best experience ever! As a first time home buyer, the whole process seemed daunting, but after talking to Brian, we felt at ease and comfortable with him to dive into the process. He had knowledge and experience, and he was very transparent and honest with us throughout, and we greatly appreciated that. After going under contract, the process was very smooth and each person on Brian's team were on the same page, which was great! We closed on time, and there were no hiccups. Look no further! Great rates and customer support!

The Brian Manning Team at Guaranteed Rate was phenomenal! They were knowledgeable, dedicated and responsive throughout the entire process. It was our first time refinancing and with these unprecedented times of COVID, we were weary of making such a big decision but Brian Manning and his team of professionals made it a smooth process. We are very fortunate to have worked again with Brian after buying and closing on hour house 4 years ago! Highly recommend for your mortgage lending needs. :)

Absolutely the best choice on the market. From extremely competitive rates, to total transparency, to extremely friendly staff, this company has it down. The entire time I never even felt as if I was working with a mortgage company or lender, but asking advice from trusted friends. It's been about a month and a half since I bought my house and have 0% buyers remorse and still think the Brian Manning Team is #1.

Brian and his team were amazing! I loved working with them all and they were extremely helpful with helping me understand the approval and closing processes associated with buying my first home.

Brian kept the loan process as simple as can be. He asked only the questions that were relevant, and requested only the documents that were needed. Brian called with updates and to ask if we had any questions. On top of the good communication, we enjoyed the nice "extras" that came with working with the Brian Manning Team, including a surprise gift of moving boxes.

Our transaction involved a tight closing schedule, so we picked Brian Manning and his team for their reputation to do the job. I really appreciated that, multiple times, my realtor reached out to Brian and Brian responded right away; in those instances, the immediacy of Brian's response was material to the transaction. 5 stars for closing on time and for a killer interest rate.

Brian and his team are communicative and efficient! They helped demystify the home buying process and made it as simple as possible. They were all available to me via phone, email, or text -- however I preferred to communicate, they were responsive. I also appreciated that I was able to accomplish everything up through signing online and on my own time. Great team, and I'll continue to recommend them to my friends and colleagues!

Edit Sept 2020: I just completed a refi with Brian Manning's team. It's so great to work with actual humans who are local, knowledgeable, and available. Very happy with my rate and experience.__Brian was referred to me by my real estate agent. From start to finish, I found him to be both highly professional and personable, knowledgeable and available for last minute inquiries. I'm happy to recommend him and his entire team.

Brian Manning has been the Mortgage Broker for two of our family members now. As a first home buyer, I had been told it's one of the most stressful experience to have but it was so easy. He and his team walked me through every step of the way and also got me the lowest rate I could ever imagine - locked in with no penalities for paying extra if I want to! The welcome gift was also a lovely touch. Thank you!

We were very happy working with Brian on our mortgage when we bought our house five years ago, so when it came time to refinance we reached out to him – in addition to two other lenders, to have some offers to compare. Brian’s team was so much more responsive and helpful than anyone else. In less than a day, we’d received detailed breakdowns of potential costs for several refi scenarios – something we were never able to get from the others. The whole process was clear, simple and efficient, and the team always let us know what to expect next. Any questions were answered promptly. We even closed well in advance of the initial estimated date. With interest rates low, the mortgage industry has a lot of business now can probably take or leave yours; but Brian has always treated us like we matter to him.

Brian got me an amazingly low interest rate, easily beat out any other lender I spoke with. In addition he was super knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and responsive. 5/5 stars would highly recommend him and his team to help you buy your home.

Brian's team made buying our first home much easier than expected. From the beginning, he called us to walk us through every step of the process, and his team regularly followed up on deadlines and action items so that we didn't miss anything. Plus, the paperwork and payment processes are VERY secure. I never felt at risk of fraudulent activity. Definitely recommend Brian and his team, especially if you are buying a home for the first time.

Huge shoutout to Brian and team (especially Lexi) for their exceptional service throughout my first-time home buying experience! Brian was able to beat competitors’ rates and made the whole process so easy I caught myself asking, ‘that’s it?’Great communication. No fuss. Highly recommend!

I've worked with Brian twice now and I am ridiculously impressed every time. Refinancing toward the beginning of the quarantine meant a lot of unknowns existed about the process. Brian and his team were so on top of it though that we had no problems at all. We were even able to do a totally virtual closing. Awesome experience as always.

We highly recommend Brian and his team. They did such a great job of walking us through the process, answering all of our questions, and just overall being available and helpful. He helped us with purchasing our first home and again when we were ready to refinance. He is a great choice for anyone looking for a lender in the Boulder area.

Brian and his team have been fantastic to work with on our recent refinance. I had several questions about the refinance process and the team was always very patient, personable and informative. I now not only understand the process, but I'm very satisfied with my new loan! Very smooth transaction and a friendly team to work with!

My husband and I just closed on our 4th property. We first went with a morgage lender that we had previously worked with. Six weeks later, after multiple delays, long hours spend faxing documents, and several last minute "no can do because of COVID," we switched to Brian. Brian got us underwritten in 7 days! His professionalism, attention to detail, understanding of the market, and overall care and enthusiasm made it happen. We could not have been successful without Brian. This has been by far the best experience we've ever had with any mortgage lender!

I met Brian 4 years ago when I first moved to Boulder and he's been a valuable resource over the years leading to my first home purchase this summer. He coached me through the home buying process with a great ability to simplify and explain all the moving parts. His team is also very nice and easy to communicate with. 10/10 would recommend Brian Manning.

Brian Manning and his team of expert loan specialists were amazing throughout our recent refinance process! The attention to detail was really impressive.

As a first-time home buyer, I went into the mortgage process completely clueless (and a little scared!) but Brian made me feel informed and safe over our time working together. When we first met, he set aside a lot of time to explain the nitty-gritty of the mortgage process end-to-end, including answering all my newbie questions with friendliness. He checked in with me frequently, he used his economics expertise to help me score an absolutely outstanding rate, he made sure his end of the closing went smooth as silk, and he followed up with a hearty congratulations and another Q&A session after the closing. Not once did I have a question or concern that Brian couldn't address. Top marks!!

We've worked with Brian and his staff on three occasions now (one home purchase and two refinances), and he has been incredibly helpful, and giving of his time, as we worked through each transaction. He is always patient and prompt with fielding our questions, the underwriting process is well-organized and efficient, and his is able to offer a quicker closing date than other lenders. I have recommended his office to our friends, and whenever we will have a need for a lender in the future, Brian is who we hope to work with again: he and his staff have my strongest possible recommendation.

Brian and his team at Guaranteed Rate were attentive through the entire process of getting approved through moving into my new home. They were available for questions when they came up and I loved that I could sign paperwork online with time to read through it and not rushed to figure it all out sitting at closing. Thank you!

I have used Brian Manning twice now -- one for my original mortgage loan 2 years ago, and again just recently for my refinancing. In both instances it was a perfectly pleasant and seamless experience. This most recent time was especially wonderful -- I was leaving town for the COVID-19 lockdown and wasn't able to meet in person for my closing. So not only did he push to ensure the closing happened before mortgage rates shot up again, he got me the lowest rate out there AND enabled me to close virtually, which I didn't even know was possible. I'd work with Brian again any day of the week. Even on Saturday, when for some reason he still takes work calls.
