Tim Alvis would be great for someone who is NOT buying their first house. He would be a great candidate for someone who is an experienced buyer. It was not a good experience for me and my husband and we were disappointed in his complacency that ultimately changed our closing date and our view of veterans United home loans.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Rebecca,
I’m sorry to hear that your experience as first-time homebuyers left you and your husband feeling disappointed. Purchasing a home for the first time can already feel overwhelming, and it’s important to have clear communication, guidance, and support throughout the process.
I understand why changes to your closing timeline and the overall experience would affect your confidence and perception of Veterans United. Every borrower’s situation is different, and first-time buyers especially should feel informed and supported every step of the way. I appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback.
I’d like the opportunity to learn more about your experience and discuss your concerns further. Please feel free to contact me at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. The Client Advocate team is available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, and messages outside those hours are typically responded to the next business day.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
Veterans United has been the best experience I have had for home buying. It was your team that made our dream of being a homeowner possible. Your team was the most professional, customer oriented, and, most importantly, most caring and experienced that I have ever met. It started with the Lighthouse team and Ms Bobbie Hafford that worked with us for over a year to get our credit up to where it needed to be. She always reached out to us, kept us motivated, and kept us progressing to our goal of being a homebuyer. Once we were qualified my home loan specialist Seth reached out to us within an hour of being qualified and even though he had engagements with his family and it was late he always took the time to answer our calls, kept us informed, and kept our loan and pre approval moving. He motivated his team and even though it was late on a Friday Lucas stepped in and together we were able to be pre approved that same day. Seth Wilmes, Lucas Hassemer, and Morgan Luster always was prompt to return calls and texts and always was kind, informative and dedicated to our loan needs. Without these dedicated and caring professionals my family's dreams of owning our first home may have never came true. Thank you Seth, Bobbie, Lucas, and Morgan. And thank you to the Veterans United Team. My loan officer Seth Wilmes is one in a million. He is caring, professional, exceptionally proficient, ethical, and passionate about his job and exceptional customer service. Always available or quick to respond with my questions and I do believe he was always fully engaged and dedicated his time to me when i had the first time buyer many questions. He took the time to fully answer my spouse and I's questions fully and professionally. I will always refer Seth and his team as well as Veterans United to all of my friends, family, and associates that are starting the home buying or refinancing journey.
Amber Brown with Veterans United was amazing in helping me purchase my first home. She was very responsive, listened to what I had to say, and let me know she is always available even after I closed on my home.

I was pleased with the prompt service I received with Veterans United. The paperless contact system works very well to accomplish the details required with loan approval! Great Job!
We had different situation than most, we were buying the house we were renting. Tyler at Veterans United guided us through the application process, helped us get to our goal. Thanks Tyler! I would recommend Veterans United to any Veteran trying to navigate the home buying process. I learned so much about this benefit during the process.
Tommy and Sara were terrific throughout the entire process, keeping me informed and providing guidance, plus helping to expedite when needed.
Great availability and willingness to explain situations! Very open about pricing and options available.
Thank you Veterans United, you helped us get into our dream home. Exceptional customer service, unfortunately a 10 is the highest score we can give. You all went above and beyond. Thank you all! Sincerely, The Cobb family
The overall experience was seamleasly smooth. I'd always been intimidated by the idea of purchasing a home but am blessed to have come across Veterans United. ***Disclaimer*** My lovely wife did most of the facilitating because she interacts with people very easily but she is just as happy with the service as I am.
From the very beginning Veterans United was impressive. It started with a simple inquiry online, and within minutes, Lauren called. At that time my wife and I were on a trip, so I gathered some quick info, and explained to Lauren that I would be in touch after our trip. She listened and let me reach out to her once we were back home. Once we got started on the loan process, it could not have gone smoother. Talking to Lauren didn't feel as if we were talking to a stranger, but a friend. She was there any time and any day we needed her. Lauren is extremely professional, but at the same time, laid back and fun to work with. She is outstanding!!! We feel very fortunate to have worked with Veterans United, as they are competent, and make what could be a stressful situation, smooth and stress free.
Honest and straightforward about everything. Make sure I had all the tools needed.

Meghan was truly exceptional from beginning to end throughout our entire loan process and through closing. She was consistently engaged, responsive, knowledgeable, and supportive every step of the way. No question ever went unanswered, and she made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Her communication, professionalism, and dedication were outstanding. We are incredibly grateful for her guidance and highly recommend Meghan to anyone looking for an amazing loan officer.
The process has a lot of steps but it's less stressful with Veterans United.
Austin and the team were absolutely amazing. All of them were consistently checking in to make sure we were happy with the process and always had the answers to any of my questions. Nikki Cravens‑Howard Was the only person I had an issue with, she was distant and I constantly felt as if I was a bother when dealing with her. She did not respond when needed and passed me off to others again making me feel as though I were not important enough to deal with. Every other team member I dealt with were a 10+.
