Making a Smooth Transition from Selling One Home and Buying Another
Whether you’re relocating to Colorado for a job, have outgrown your current home, or moving here to retire, you’re already a home owner. You’ve been through the mortgage process before, but in today’s technology-centered environment, a lot has changed.
Here are answers to four questions that often arise in this situation.
# 1
Do I need to sell before I buy my new Colorado home?
If you need to access equity, you may need to sell your current home and use the sales proceeds toward the purchase of your new home.
However, if you don’t need the equity at this time, you may qualify to purchase a new home now and sell your existing home in the future. Another idea to consider is turning your current home into a rental property.
The important thing to remember is that you get pre-approved for your home loan early. Contact The Brian Manning Team and we’ll help you determine which option is best for you.
# 2
Can I close on the sale of my existing home as well as on my new Colorado home on the same day?
Yes. You can do what’s known as a “simultaneous closing.” Keep in mind that selling, buying, packing and moving all at once can create stress. However, if that’s what works best for you, The Brian Manning Team guides you through the mortgage process so that it flows as smoothly as possible.
# 3
What’s the current interest rate?
The financial landscape changes constantly. Contact us and we’ll explain the various loan programs available and the corresponding interest rates for each.
# 4
What can I afford in Colorado?
Whether you want to live in Boulder County, Castle Rock, Denver, or elsewhere along the Front Range, getting pre-approved for your home loan before you begin your search helps you move from speculation to actual, factual answers about what you can afford in the area you want to call home.
Brian and team were great in walking me through the home buying process as a first time home buyer. Brian was always available, and took special care to explain things in detail that I had questions about.This resulted in an easier than expected home buying process, I would absolutely recommend.

Brian Manning and his team were so helpful through every step of our mortgage process. We had constant and quick communication daily after submitting our offer. My husband and I were both first time home buyers and did not know what to expect. Brian mapped out all steps of the mortgage process in our initial phone call, which gave us confidence in buying our first home. We will definitely use this team again!

Brian and team were very quick and had a mission to get us approved when we applied. They meant business and got us through pre-approval within a few days of applying and was with us every step of the way, checking in until closing. They got us a high approval amount and was very well versed in VA loans. They made the process easy and quick on what could’ve been a grueling process when going through the VA. Brian and team came through for us and took us to closing without any major issues. So glad we went with them.Tessa and David M.

Just excellent from start to finish. We were originally going to go with an online lender, but the online lender surprised us with so many fees an unexpected delays that we were terrified that we’d lose our earnest money and the house we loved. Brian and his team helped us get a great rate and every interaction was prompt and professional. Brian and his team got our mortgage to close on time, and we’d highly recommend them and their concierge-like service. When we purchase property in the future, we’ll go straight to Brian and his team. Well done!

Brian and his team were awesome. From the first call to the last he was responsive and timely. We had some last minute adjustments on Wednesday prior to Friday closing and he was on it with restructuring the loan on a dime. His associate Alexis was great about letting me know as soon as she did about documents. Using DocuSign and the guaranteed rate portal made everything so smooth and I was notified immediately every time a new signature or document was needed. We couldn’t do a flash close because of the last minute changes but I was able to review most of the closing documents a week before closing. I really can’t say enough about how easy Brian and team made everything. Thank you manning team!!

My wife and I successfully closed on our first home in less than 30 days, due in part to Brian Manning and his amazing team! In the competitive Colorado market, it's important to have a local lender like Brian who is easy to get a hold of, and who stays on top of important deadlines. There was even a last-minute snafu on our closing day, and Brian figured it out and was honest and communicative. I highly recommend Brian Manning and Guaranteed Rate!
Andrew Giordano
16:55 24 Apr 21
Fantastic team! I'm a first time home buyer so I definitely had questions throughout the whole process, and Brian and his team were there every step of the way to help me. They made the entire process very easy and much less daunting than I expected. Each member of the team is highly knowledgeable and ready to contact with any questions. Highly recommend!

UPDATE 4/19/2021: It's over 5 years since I bought my house and I decided it was time to refinance. I very happily went with Brian and team again. Though he's switched companies since my original loan, I'm thrilled to see the amazing service hasn't changed. The process was as seamless and professional this time as it was the first time and I stand by everything I said in the initial review below.========Original review: I can't recommend Brian highly enough. He was recommended by my realtor initially. From the first time I reached out until closing day, he was always incredibly responsive. Even when he was on vacation in Nepal, he still managed to get everything done and respond immediately to any questions I had.When I first asked for a rate quote, he sent me the info in this neat little online tool which broke it apart by the different loan options and provided extensive information on the loan. It had a personalized video from Brian attached to it explaining everything (and he followed up with a phone call immediately after). It was clear, concise, and very easy to follow. Considering this was my first home, this was a huge deal for me. It also didn't hurt that the rate that he quoted me was far below any of the others I got.Throughout the process Brian was always available but never pushy. He explained every step of the process and what was required. I had heard so many horror stories about the loan process but Brian made it incredibly painless. In fact, it was so easy we closed on the house a week early. He even showed up to the closing just in case any questions came up.I also got a weekly phone call from one of his assistants just to ensure that I'm kept updated as things moved along.I would recommend Brian and team to anyone looking for a loan. Knowing what I know now I would probably go back to him even if his rate quote were a little higher than others (though, as I said, he actually came in WAY lower) just because of how good the experience was.

Getting a mortgage is a very scary process with so much stuff to do. I used Brian and team this time and the process went well. The team was very informative and helpful during the while process. Once closing came, everything went smoothly! I contribute this in part with Brian and team. I have used Brian and team for my initial mortgage and two refinances. Each time it went well without hassle. Thank you!!!

I am so grateful for the patience, professionalism and honesty Brian Manning's team delivered when working with us to provide a loan for our first home. Brian was always so receptive and gave us clear expectations for what we needed to qualify for our home loan .The team communicated with us in a timely manner and it helped me not go insane throughout the process of underwriting. Lidia was one of my favorites on this team, she would always be ready to answer all my questions and was so friendly every time we spoke. Communication between the team could improve a little but apart from that it was a smooth process from beginning to end. I would highly recommend this team and their hard work because it shows! I was amazed at the interest rate they gave us. There is no need to look for other lenders. Guaranteed Rate is where to go!

The guaranteed rate team went above and beyond in helping us refinance our home. Being self employed, refinancing can be tricky, especially with loss of income due to Covid shutdown. They went over all our options and helped us get a great rate with a smooth process. Very helpful along the way with check ins and updates. The closing process was easy and we couldn't have asked for anything better.

Brian and his team were the best. My refi was such an easy and painless process. Thanks to Glenn, Alexis, Lidia and Ashley. They all made sure when an email was sent to me it was followed by a phone call. We feel like family when dealing with Brian as he has been helping our family since 1994 when we purchased our 1st home. Thank you all and have a Blessed year!

I researched lenders and was going to go with a ‘big name company’ before my realtor suggested Brian Manning, who is local in my area. SO glad she did! Going through the process of first-time home-buying is a big deal, and now I understand HOW important it is to have a lender that is super communicative, super responsive, transparent and actually local. I doubt that a ‘big name’ company could have provided me the communication Brian & his team did. They were in constantly in contact with me, immediately answered questions via email & phone, available on weekends, and very honest & transparent through the whole process. The electronic submittal process for the loan application was painless. Closing was a breeze. I really appreciated that!!
Kirsten McIlrath

We highly recommend Brian, Glenn and the rest of his Team at Guaranteed Rate for any lending needs. They are all true professionals and make the loan/refinance process (we've done both with them) remarkably straightforward, transparent, and stress-free. 10/10

I used Brian Manning at Guaranteed Rate to refinance a rental property in Colorado. I live in the Washington DC area. I can say without reservation the team embodies professionalism from start to finish. As the application moved through the loan process, a different team specialist handled it at each step. What is impressive is how well the team coordinated with one another so that nothing fell through the cracks. And each specialist was knowledgeable, efficient, and cheerful. As a result from application thru funding the refi was completed within a month. The Guaranteed Rate software which manages the documents is easy to use. When I encountered a couple of login glitches, the Manning team was there promptly to help me sort it out. BTW, the loan rate was by far the best I received from any agency.

I have dealt with many lenders and Brian Manning's team has surpassed my expectations. The whole experience was phenomenal, from the beginning, I felt like we were in good hands. Brian took the time to keep us updated every week and throughout the process. He and his team were sincere and were happy to answer questions when they arose. I couldn't be more happy with the whole process and would recommend the Brian Manning Team to all of my clients, friends and family!

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 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.

20:58 02 Nov 20
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.

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!
Hana Caruso
16:48 18 Sep 20
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.
Paul Madden
16:33 18 Sep 20
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.

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.

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.

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!
Jie Mao

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.

17:37 03 Jun 20
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.

This was our second time buying a home, and Brian has stood out among all the lenders we've worked with. Brian was incredibly clear, responsive, and thoughtful throughout. He always offered the time to explain things and made service his #1 priority. I highly recommend working with him.

Brian and his team provide the highest level of customer service that I have received in the lending world.

Been through both our first home purchase and a refinance with Brian and his team and have nothing but good things to say. They're friendly, quick to reply to our endless questions, and a blast to work with. Thanks y'all!

Brian and his team were great to have on our side during our first time house purchase process. They were able to answer all of our questions, and explained everything in clear detail. The entire process was made very easy to comprehend and seamless, which helped a lot since we had so many other things going on with a first time purchase.

I recommend Brian Manning and his team to anyone looking to purchase a home or refinance. I've worked with other mortgage companies in the past, and Brian Manning's service and products are far superior to other companies. Very smooth process from application to closing.
