Carson City, Nevada – Home At Last™, a program of the Nevada Rural Housing Authority (NRHA), has presented Amanda Rea, Loan Officer of Guild Mortgage located in Reno, with the prestigious Centennial Award for her work in helping more than 100 Nevada families obtain homeownership through the Home At Last™ Down Payment Assistance Program.
“It is important to recognize Amanda’s stellar performance in assisting her fellow Nevadans obtain affordable homeownership,” said Diane Arvizo, NRHA homeownership programs director.
Rea specializes in Conventional, FHA, VA and USDA loans. She has been with Guild Mortgage since 2012.
“With rents in our area being so high, there are many prospective homebuyers who know they can afford a mortgage payment, but can’t figure out how to save the money they need for a down payment,” Rea said. “This program allows them to get into the home with little to no money down so they start building equity and wealth.”
Rea said she doesn’t believe one size fits all when it comes to mortgage loans and always takes the time to truly understand the needs of each client.
When she is not assisting homebuyers, Rae enjoys taking in the sights of Lake Almanor along with her husband, 10-year-old and dog.
