In 2013, Guaranteed Rate grew to more than $15.9 billion in residential home loans, an increase of $1.2 billion over 2012. [11] [12] This moved the company from the 12th-largest retail mortgage lender in the U.S. to the 10th. [13]

In 2015, Guaranteed Rate became the eighth largest retail mortgage lender with volume of more than $18 billion in home loans and was named Lender of the Year by Chicago Agent magazine. [14] In March 2016, Guaranteed Rate and one of its loan officers were found guilty in California of diverting loans from Mount Olympus Mortgage, and ordered to pay $25 million in damages to the Irvine, California-based company. [15]

In May, Guaranteed Rate bought the URL Rate.com for $725,000. [16]

In 2017, Guaranteed Rate entered into a joint venture with Realogy Holdings Corp to form Guaranteed Rate Affinity. Guaranteed Rate will provide marketing services to Realogy's subsidiaries, including NRT and Cartus, and will take over some assets of its former joint venture partner, PHH Mortgage out of New Jersey. [17] In December, Guaranteed Rate announced plans to sell a minority stake of the company to an affiliate of Boston-based private equity firm Thomas H. Lee Partners. [18] The partial sale was finalized in June 2018. [19] Also in December, a former loan officer sued Guaranteed Rate claiming that he was owed $2 million and that executives at the company were manipulating and misreporting financial information for their own benefit. [20]

In January 2018, Guaranteed Rate announced that its employees' and customers' personal information was in hackers' hands as the result of an email phishing attack. [21] In October, Guaranteed Rate is one of the seven-largest retail mortgage provider in the US. [8]

In January 2019, The Wall Street Journal revealed Guaranteed Rate's efforts to boost their Glassdoor ratings.

In October 2023, The Wall Street Journal published a report titled "The Mortgage Market Is So Bad Lenders Want Ex-Employees to Give Back Their Bonuses" that detailed Guaranteed Rate's practice of clawing back signing bonuses from loan officers hired in years prior. According to the article, Guaranteed Rate's business dropped by over 50% in 2022 from its high in 2021. [30]

In June 2024, the Chicago Tribune reported that 80 ex-employees interviewed by the paper said they had experienced or witnessed persistent verbal abuse, a "sex-driven" culture, and a misogynistic atmosphere at the firm and from Victor Ciardelli. Ciardelli expressly denied these allegations, stating such allegations are “simply not true.” The company “has not, does not, and would not objectify women or put them in uncomfortable personal or professional situations." The Tribune also reported that the company was changing its name to Rate, as Ciardelli said 'people have trouble spelling ‘guaranteed’.” [31] [32]

In July 2024, the company officially announced that it would rebrand as simply Rate, with Ciardelli explaining that it reflected the company's "new era" of "making the mortgage process smoother, faster and smarter". The new brand will be phased in across its businesses and sponsorships, and "not affect current operations or mortgage loan officer licenses". [33]
