Results driven and relationship focused are two ways to describe Rick Harrington. “Having two decades in the mortgage industry, I’ve seen so many different types of scenarios and industry changes that I feel well equipped to help almost any client in any situation,” says Harrington, now originating manager with Guaranteed Rate Affinity. Competitive on rates and always available to answer questions from agents and clients, he boasts a large referral base. The connections and proven network of Realtors, attorneys and banks he has developed over time allow him to best serve clients.
Harrington oversees 17 Coldwell Banker offices in Boston and the surrounding areas, serving as a manager to a team of Guaranteed Rate Affinity loan originators, in addition to maintaining his own book of business. His specialty is corporate relocations, new-construction development and portfolio lending. He is excited to report that he is expanding to Florida in 2024.
Harrington is the first vice president in Guaranteed Rate Affinity’s Midwest/New England division to earn the elite level of Chairman’s Circle in consecutive years. With well over $1 billion in closed loan volume in his career, he attributes his success to the focus, structure and care that his team provides customers day in and day out. The team helps him process loans, market his services and develop new business.
“My team is very process driven,” he says. “But we are best known in the real estate community for our strong agent relationships that drive both success in navigating the loan process and delivering the best finished product for the mutual client.”
For more than a decade, Harrington has achieved Guaranteed Rate’s Chairman Club status and consistently ranked among the company’s top 1% of mortgage originators in the United States. “Without my team,” he insists, “it would be impossible to close the volume we have in the past few years.”
Active in the community, Harrington supports several charitable organizations, including Coldwell Banker CARES, the Inner-City Scholarship Fund and the Herren Project.
