Sheldon, Sarah, and the whole VetsU Team were simply amazing to work with from jump. Patient, Professional, and made me feel part of a true Partnership throughout the entire experience. A team member was never further than a text away.My questions were answered promptly, when I was confused, concerned, or irritated, they provided a safe, judgement-free space to vent pent up anxiety. Never once was I made to feel less for availing myself this space.
Thank you all!

Sheldon Turek and Danielle Hays did get me to closing. Thats the only good thing. We closed a week late which cost me almost over 5k in debts. Danielle told me to forward the costs to see if they can help. Forward the receipts and get told it will delay closing even longer.The beginning was Sheldon making promises and talking big game which later seemed didnt hold together until i called a million times to try and get ahold of him. Still seems shaky at best. My loan coordinator changed atleast 3 times. They only coordinate via email which is awful and kept me guessing what i need to do. The app and the to dos sometimes are not clear. If I need to do something I expect the people trying to get my business reaching out to me via phone call to make sure i provide the necessary things to close on time.4th time buying a house and by far this was the hardest. If you need to reach them Goodluck, you're gonna get passed around.Got them to call me like a requested when I made threats to report them to the head of the VA to blacklist their company.Do not recommend va united.

Response from Veterans United

Hi Christopher,

I’m really sorry to hear how frustrating this experience was, especially given that this wasn’t your first time buying a home. Closing late and feeling left in the dark can create a lot of stress, and I understand why the added costs and communication challenges left you disappointed.

While I’m glad to hear Sheldon and Danielle helped get you to the finish line, it’s clear we missed the mark when it came to consistency, clarity, and being easy to reach. Changing loan coordinators, relying mostly on email, and unclear next steps can make an already complex process feel even harder than it should. That’s not the experience we want for anyone.

I’d really like the chance to look into what happened with your loan and better understand the delays and communication gaps you described. If you’re open to it, you can reach our Client Advocate team at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. We’re available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, and messages outside those hours are typically returned the next business day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It helps us understand where we need to do better.

Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
