Suzanne Martindale to Lead New Guild Mortgage Branch

Jan 05, 2015

Guild Mortgage Company has announced the opening of a new retail branch in Healdsburg, Calif. as part of the company's continued expansion throughout the West. Leading the new location is branch manager Suzanne Martindale, who has more than 12 years of experience in mortgage sales and 10 years additional experience as an underwriter. She previously worked in Guild's Morgan Hill, Calif. branch for seven years. 

"We are pleased to open our new Healdsburg office to serve one of the finest residential and agricultural areas in Sonoma County,” Martindale said. “The growth of the wine industry in northern Sonoma County has been impressive and is increasing the interest of potential homebuyers. Guild is looking forward to serving their needs with a wide range of mortgage loan products.”

Guild Mortgage has grown from a single office in San Diego to become one of the leading independent mortgage banking companies in the United States because of its entrepreneurial culture, quality of people and commitment to customer service. Guild offers a traditional range of residential mortgage products and funds most of its loans, which provides consistency and also speeds approvals. It has pioneered programs to help first-time homebuyers achieve their dreams of home ownership, often through government loan programs, helping responsible people obtain a loan.
