Veterans United made this process very easy.
In the last two weeks prior to closing, there were some significant issues. The first issue was them not communicating with us about the VA's 10 day approval window and the deadline necessary for all documentation in order to meet our 30 day closing contract. This could have caused us to violate our contract with the seller, lose the ernest money, and the house. Secondly, we were told to sign documents, that had errors and or needed to be updated, that they said weren't the final version and weren't sent to the VA for final approval. None of this was true and it seems like either negligent or fraudulent misrepresentation. Making the necessary changes later could have put as at risk of violating our 30 day closing for a second time. The down payment amount and loan amount weren't what we had discussed. When confronted with these issues, multiple different, what seem like excuses, were given to us. It's a lot to explain but there's lots of messages and emails to support this. I hope someone from Veterans United reaches out for a more in depth explanation so this type of stuff doesn't happen to another customer.
Response from Veterans United
Hi John,
Thank you for taking the time to share this. I’m really sorry to hear how stressful and concerning these last-minute issues were, especially with the potential risk to your closing timeline and contract. Situations involving unclear deadlines, changing numbers, and document concerns can feel overwhelming, and I understand why this raised serious concerns for you.
You should have been able to rely on clear, accurate communication throughout the process, particularly when it comes to timelines and documentation tied to VA requirements. I’m sorry for the confusion and frustration this caused.
I’d truly like the opportunity to take a closer look at your experience, including the messages and emails you mentioned, to better understand what happened and where things broke down. If you’re open to it, please reach out to me directly at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com so we can review everything together.
Our team is available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST, Monday through Friday, and we’ll follow up as soon as possible if you reach out outside those hours.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager

Bryan, Alli, and the rest of my team were outstanding. I was kept in the loop the entire process. My to do lists were effortlessly completed. There was zero guessing on my end. Thank you all so much. I will definitely use you each time I purchase a home
Very easy to work with. I did not have to do much. The only thing I would say is a lot of phone calls. I am very simple so I was not looking for the hand holding so much plus mine was a local move not a cross country or into an area I was not familiar with so I did not need all the extra calls..
Every member of the team was a great help and assisted with all our needs.
We were afraid to get a veterans home loan because of everything we heard. We are very happy we decided to find out for ourselves. They do make the process as painless as possible, there are not as many restrictions as we thought, they just want to make sure your home is safe for you and your family. We feel extremely lucky to have found them, with their help our 13 year dream is finally coming true. Veterans United went above and beyond for us in securing our 1st Home. We are so happy to move from Maine to this beautiful house in Southern Virginia. Veterans United made our dream a reality.
Everybody was really helpful, informative, and communication was great. I was kept up to date and was let know of the next steps to do. Overall thankful to every body who helped in the process of getting us our first home.
Kenny Ashton is a superstar! We were an unusual case as early retirees with a complex financial situation, and Kenny helped us get a loan that met our unique requirements with convenient terms. His communication skills are outstanding, and he exemplifies great customer service. This was my first experience with Veterans United, and Kenny proved to be an amazing ambassador for the brand.

Holly and the team at VU were absolutely amazing to work with. Professionals that go above and beyond to take care of the customer!!!
The whole process was great. They helped me with each step and went above and beyond with assisting me and answering any questions I had. They get to know the people they help and provided valuable assistance with each step of the process.
Kevin Webster and Matthew Gandlmayr did a great job keeping things on track. We thought we wasn't going to get approved after the run of mill processes. Can not be more grateful to the team for me and my family.
The VU team we worked with, Doug and Dawn, were amazing! They made the whole home buying process so easy. Dawn held my hand through all the nervousness and meltdowns!! I recommend VU very highly and can’t say enough good things about them!!
It was a wild beginning. Evan helped us tremendously though. Any time there was a question or issue he got right on it! My wife and I are extremely thankful and will be giving out Evan Campbell's info out to all of our Veteran friends and he will be our first call when rates drop again!!!
