My loan team was outstanding from start to finish. These guys know what they’re doing and do a tremendous job! I can’t thank them enough!
Applying for and receiving a home loan approval with Veterans United is a most gratifying experience. I suggest to any veteran who is thinking about buying a home, for your own piece of mind you had better think very strongly about getting onboard with Veterans United.
The experience with the lending officers was extremely disappointing due to a clear lack of professionalism, poor communication, and inadequate time management. Timelines and expectations were consistently misrepresented, and the process required three separate extensions to the closing file in order to meet the necessary deadlines. This mismanagement jeopardized the successful completion of the transaction, resulted in additional costs to the seller—who was unable to plan his move accordingly—and caused significant stress and uncertainty for the buyer, who received no clear assurance that their loan would be approved in time.
Response from Veterans United
Hey Derek,
I’m really sorry to hear how things played out on this one. It sounds like the delays and lack of communication created a stressful situation not just for the buyer, but also for the seller—and that’s something we take seriously. No one should be left guessing whether their loan will be ready in time, especially when multiple extensions are involved and people are trying to make major life moves around closing dates.
You should have been able to count on clear timelines, consistent updates, and a team that kept things on track. I hate that this fell short on all fronts. If you’re open to it, I’d like to have our Client Advocate team take a closer look at the file. You can reach us directly at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. We’re available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST.
Thanks again for the candid feedback—it helps us know where we need to improve.
Sincerely,
Great work all the way around!!! Thank you!!
Made a stressful process less stressful thanks to good communication and available resources.
This was my first time buying a house and the team was awesome! No question was too small and the patience and explanation helped ease this process.
Exceptional! They got me approved and worked diligently to have all paperwork ready for closing.
Rob Hayward's team made a very stressful event in my life super easy. They were always great to talk to and very understanding of my situation. I will recommend them to any Veteran that needs to buy a house in the future.

Experience first-hand why 345,771 homeowners give us a perfect score!
There's without a doubt that there is a plethora of tools that comes with this company that ensures the moves are complete. The realtors assigned to us gave us the complete transparency we needed.
This is the second time I’ve work with Derek when looking for a new home. Both times the service was exceptional. I would always recommend Veterans United home loans. Derek and the whole Veterans United team make a very big and important purchase the easiest process. The smallest details don’t ever go unnoticed and I appreciate all the work they do to make the entire process run smoothly.
There is no bank we would give a higher recommendation for in regards to our veteran home loan process! They are ON TOP of it! They never became frustrated with my daily abundance of questions. They are all courteous and professional and you won't find anyone who works harder to help you! VETERANS UNITED FOR LIFE!
The back and forth with underwriting was slightly annoying, but I understand the need for the back and forth. So overall, my experience with VU was easy and I recommend them.
