When I started my house hunt, I wasn't sure what I was doing, nor where to begin. The Veteran's United team made the process simple, easy, and answered every question I had along the way.
can’t say enough good things about my experience with Veterans United. They handled the financing for my dream house in Emerald Isle and made what I expected to be a stressful, complicated process genuinely easy from start to finish.The team was responsive, clear, and walked me through every step so I always knew what was happening and what came next. There were no surprises, no confusing jargon left unexplained, and no feeling like I was on my own. They clearly know the VA loan process inside and out.Buying a home can feel overwhelming, but Veterans United took that weight off my shoulders and helped make my dream a reality. If you’re a veteran looking for a lender who actually makes the process smooth, I highly recommend them.
I was very happy with the loan process, however i had one small bump in the road. in the middle of getting everythign together the loan team found out i had a well and then required a well test on top of the pest inspection. Neither of these would be a problem if they had just let me know up front that this was needed. I would encourage the team to ensure that for future cusotmers, that they make sure these items are addressed in the very beginning of the process.
Mike Smith, Anthony Davis, Dene' Lorenzen, Jacque Lampkin and the team behind the scenes were great! I couldn't have had a better team to assist me and walk me through the home buying process (again)!!! I would give them a handshake and a hug for helping me and my wife achieve this dream of owning a home again. Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!!If given the chance, I'd buy another house with their help.
Mike Smith and team were great to work with and made the home buying process enjoyable. They kept me informed and were very helpful throughout the process. Thank you all!!!-Derek
Mike & Lora were phenomenal.When I first was trying to get approved, Mike was patient and kind as I was getting strung out by another lender. He saw me through some very frustrating experiences with that lender.Lora came along further in the process but didn’t let me file stay stagnant when roadblocks came my way. Since I came over the VU with a purchase agreement in hand, there was no time to waste and she saw to that.Mike, also, as we were nearing the finish line and just needed a VA appraisal to score kept calling the department of veterans affairs together basically daily for 2 weeks. On one occasion staying on the line for over 2 hours well past normal business hours. Can’t say enough how much his efforts meant to me.
