Guaranteed Rate makes key hire in Martha’s Vineyard

“Our growth in Northern California has been truly impressive,” Guaranteed Rate regional manager Ryan Ogata said at the time. “Dianne has been a real catalyst for increasing our business. The region at large has quadrupled its loan volume in the last four years. She has a long-standing history of building tremendous relationships with customers and partners in the area, and we are excited to see her continue to share her ‘Think Big’ mentality with others on her team.”

The company also made the news last February when it announced two key hirings – those of Fannie Loyola and Maggie Martinez – toward the goal of supporting the Hispanic home-buying community in the Chicagoland area.

Loyola was tapped as area manager in Lake County, Ill., while Martinez was tasked to serve as branch manager in Oak Park, Ill. At the time, Guaranteed Rate officials said that the appointments were part of its ongoing initiative to engage a broad range of homebuying communities through its newly established language access program (LAP) and diversity processing team.

“We are thrilled to welcome Fannie and Maggie, two huge producers and industry leaders in the Hispanic community,” Camilo Escalante, executive director of diverse segments at Guaranteed Rate, said at the time. “Their decision to join Guaranteed Rate further demonstrates that we are delivering on our vision to continue improving our services for the Latino community by ensuring we are set up to succeed.”
