About Gary Boyer
With more than 20 years of experience in the mortgage industry, I’m fortunate to do a job I love. Each client is equally important to me, no matter their budget or unique situation. I believe the mortgage process should be fun and relational, not scary or intimidating. I look forward to sitting down with you, taking the mystery out of the process, and putting together a plan. My priority is to not only help you secure a loan or refinancing that you are happy with but also to have a good time in the process.
I’m happy to say that I focus on inclusion in my work, with many of my clients belonging to the LGBT community. Home financing can be overwhelming, and discrimination can only make it worse. My goal is to give good advice to all of my clients, regardless of their personal identity.

They are efficient and responsive. "Efficient" is an understatement, to be honest. In this wild market, it's crucial to move quickly when you find a home you'd like to buy. We didn't give the team much warning before we were ready to make an offer and they turned it around in record time! We were able to get our pre-approval letter in our offer and get that loan closed within a very short window. Gary's team ensured a lightning speed and smooth process by being proactive about all the potential documentation an underwriter could need and by keeping us informed basically by the minute for anything time sensitive. This was our second time using Gary's services and in the future we won't hesitate to do it again. read less

My partner and I met with Gary and the meeting was professional, and informative yet we had tons of good laughs. Gary and his team are the desired team any home buyer would want. Our paperwork was always at the promised time, if not early. Even during specific changes in offers, we received the paperwork quickly to sign and submit to the Seller. We were on the market for less then 2 months and I wouldn't have changed a thing in the process. Our rate is amazing. We will definitely go back to Gary in the future.

I am a very picky customer, but Gary's team continues to exceed my expectations. They made my refi completely painless, and I closed within 5 weeks of opening the file with them. I had previously tried to refi with Caliber Home Loans, who held my mortgage. Caliber took 5 months in "processing" then at the end of that period of time said that I did not qualify for refi.

They (as a team) navigated us through a very challenging property purchase a few years ago. We all had some major hurdles to navigate and they just never gave up and tapped into their professional network and did not give up as others have done. Since then we always recommend mortgage monkey and Gary boyer to anyone looking to finance and purchase. Everyone has had equally great experiences. They are networked so well.We just called Gary recently for a possible refinance situation and his generosity with his time and guidance was once again genuine and his extensive knowledge of the industry helped guide us onto a good path forward. GREAT PEOPLE AND COMPANY! read less

We had NO idea what we might qualify for or even if we had enough money to buy a house. Gary was amazing. He met with us on a weekend, offered us his honest assessment of where we were and what we needed to do to set ourselves up to buy a house. A year later (this year), we of course, returned to him and he has been not just someone who helped us get a mortgage, but a real advocate for us in what turned out to be a less-than-streamlined process!

I was trying to get a loan for a second residence on the Washington coast. My first contact was with Kendra, who walked me through the initial processes of my offer being accepted and locking in a rate. Kendra was so friendly and personable, and seemed to be genuinely rooting for me. My file was then passed on to Renee. Her initial email was very professional, almost intimidating, but subsequent emails were very friendly. Renee was in charge of getting all the needed documentation from me, and she was very clear in what was needed and kept me informed all along the way. There were a couple of "wet documents" (original signatures) that hade to be mailed in, and Renee was prompt in letting me know that they were received. When my file was passed on to processing, then underwriting, Renee always kept me in the loop. After more information was required by the underwriting team, my loan was approved!! Renee seemed almost as excited as I was! She made sure of my availability to sign documents for the title company, and stayed with me through the final processes.My final email was from Gary, the branch manager and senior mortgage specialist, asking for one final thing.The whole experience, from my initial email from Kendra to my final email from Renee, took less than a month. Everything except the "wet documents" was done online, so the company's proximity to my house was actually moot.Directors Mortgage made the intimidating experience of applying for a home loan sooo easy and painless that I hardly feel like I owe anybody anything . I would very highly recommend Directors Mortgage to anyone looking to finance a home. Super kudos to Kendra and Renee...they were fantastic to work with.Bonus - I got a very nice home tool kit from Directors Mortgage yesterday as their thank you for my business! Thank you! read less
