In a separate move, Guild Mortgage appointed Nora Guerra (pictured right) as senior vice president of community lending solutions.
Guerra, who previously worked as the senior manager of national affordable lending at Freddie Mac, brings more than 25 years of leadership experience to her new role. She will focus on expanding Guild’s community lending programs, which include down payment assistance, financial education, and outreach initiatives aimed at making homeownership more accessible.
