My wife and I were able to buy a house last year and Chad was a huge part of the process. He was recommended by our realtor and lived up to his recommendation. Well before we were in the market for a home, Chad talked with me and laid out possible scenarios for our financial position and goals. When we were ready, he was ready. He was knowledgable, honest, available, friendly, and trustworthy. He worked hard to make sure my wife and I were cared for and understood the process as best we could. We debated back and forth when to lock in our rate and Chad was there every step of the way with sound advice and honest feedback. I never felt like I was inconveniencing him with questions and knew I could call him to check in at any time. He would return phone calls promptly, processed things quickly, and made sure we knew our loan was a priority for him. I would highly recommend Chad. He made the tedious process of buying a first home manageable as we he managed our loan and helped us through each step. read more

Chad's knowledge of home loans and work ethic are unsurpassed! My fiancée and I purchased our first home together recently. Needless to say, we were complete rookies and somewhat clueless about the whole process at the beginning. However, Chad changed all that for us. He took the time to educated us about the entire process even before we had found our right home. He was patient and understanding with us and we changed our minds multiple times about details during the process. He diligently followed up on all of our questions and concerns. Chad manages an efficient and PROFESSIONAL group of employees at his mortgage company, and also worked very effectively with our Real Estate Agent and later with the Escrow Company. There were no details that escaped Chad's attention and immediate follow up. We were highly satisfied with Chad's work and professionalism throughout the entire lending process. We recommend him as your Mortgage/Loan Professional. read more

It is, without reservation, a pleasure to share my thoughts about Chad Cockerell. I worked in the real estate lending industry for many years and came to respect Chad and his work ethic. The process of securing a home loan is very stressful and that is lessened by the time and individual attention Chad brings to his clients. His ready smile and a joke or two helps pave the way to a successful conclusion. He continues to educate himself to provide the most comprehensive approach that will provide the desired conclusion. It is imporant to Chad that his clients are fully informed and understand the differences in the loan programs that may be available to them. All the information he has available for loans in which you have an interest is available up front...and in the real estate lending market, no suprises is very good!!! If you are in the market for a home loan, you can't go wrong if you contact Chad. read more

Me and my husband used Chad and Guild Mortgage to buy our first home a few months ago. We previously used our bank to try and get the loan and then switched to Chad because we had heard so many great things about him and how helpful and available he was, which is definitely important in a loan officer. Chad exceeded our expectations! He was always just a phone call or text away and would always get information we needed for writing offers etc very quickly; he was very on top of things. He explained things well and worked hard to help us get the home we wanted. He made a very confusing process a lot less complicated and it went very smoothly. He is very friendly and approachable and seems to really care about his clients. If you are going to buy a home, condo etc i would definitely recommend you use Chad! read more

Chad Cockerell is amazing and fantastic! We have had the opportunity to work with Chad twice, although I wish we would have found him sooner. One time was to purchase and the second was to refinance. I would use him again in a heartbeat. He was open, honest and consistently went through all costs. The best part is that he got us a killer rate. There wasn't a single unexpected item that hit us after we moved in-- we were completely well prepared. He helped us meet the crazy deadlines and was available to answer any questions that we had through the process. He was even the one that met us in person to sit down and sign all of our paperwork. He is definitely a partner that you need when buying or refinancing. read more

I've worked with Chad on home finance (purchase and refinance) on four occasions over the last 12 years. Chad is always professional, and always has been able to broaden my perspective on the issues at hand. In my most recent purchase, because I was wrapped up in projects at work, I asked Chad to work more closely than usual with my realtor and to let me play the role of project manager. Chad responded just as I hoped - with integrity and responsiveness. I would happily recommend Chad's services and hope to get his help again as soon as I can get the rest of a remodel project organized. read more
