AMAZING! FAST! EFFICIENT! EASY! I had the best experience with VU! Great communication made it easy to understand my responsibilities as ive never bought a home before. The "to do" list made it easy to understand each step so i could quickly check off my list. MY VU team is very polite and professional. AMAZING EXPERIENCE! I will definitely be using them again!
Team Rob support me from the beginning to purchase my first home! I highly recommend Veterans United!Tito G
Help was always there walked us through it all
Excellent experience!
All thanks to Aaron and Veterans United
Veterans United will always go above and beyond to make sure every service member/retiree/veteran is supported. You will never have the same comfort level, support needed, and quickness of underwriting to meet close deadlines from any other lender. You’re I no good hands with VU!
Great company! Very professional and walked me through the home buying process with ease !
Very communicative and helpful, able to answer any questions I had, or get me in touch with someone who could
They financed my loan. That was the good part. The web site is reasonably easy to use which is also good. Now for some minor nits. It would be nice to send feedback directly to the people I'm working and track it from the website rather than working almost exclusively through email. I found no way to comment on the TODO items or when I'd uploaded documents (except in a couple of instances). The worst part of the process is that communication was at times sporadic and the information around my closing date caused me to have hardship while in the process of traveling to my new location (i.e., my closing date was estimated but not finalized until 2 days before when my travel time to my new location was a minimum of 2 days with advanced planning needed). Further closing was pushed back from a Friday to a following Monday when the underwriters needed more information about something i had told them about two weeks prior. when I had a moving van I needed to turn in on Saturday. Delaying closing meant I had to unload the van into a storage unit and then take things over piecemeal in my vehicle after closing did happen. It might be better to have not setting a closing date until AFTER "cleared to close" was established. I was also asked to read and sign certain documents "right away or closing could be delayed" during times when I was busy driving halfway across the country in a vehicle.
Response from Veterans United
Hey Michele,
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed look at your experience. I’m glad to hear the website worked well for you and that the loan itself came together, but I’m really sorry for the parts of the process that made things harder than they needed to be. It shouldn’t feel difficult to give feedback, track what you’ve submitted, or know where things stand, and I can understand why relying mostly on email didn’t give you the clarity you were looking for.
I’m also really sorry for the confusion and back-and-forth around your closing date. Traveling, planning a move, and trying to coordinate everything on a tight timeline is already a lot, and the late updates and schedule changes clearly added unnecessary hardship. Being asked to review and sign documents while you were driving and then having to adjust your move because of timing issues is not the kind of experience I want any of our borrowers to have.
I’d really like the chance for my people to dig into the specifics you mentioned and better understand what contributed to all of that. If you’re open to talking, you can reach us anytime at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. I appreciate you taking the time to explain what this felt like from your side, and would like to help if possible.
My loan team was amazing. They made everything very easy for me as a first time homebuyer. I would highly recommend Ross, Jake and Briana to anyone buying a home.
I just want to thank veterans United /my loan officer they did a phenomenal job. Unbelievable job I can’t thank you enough to you and your team. Sincerely, Jimmy .
As a first time buyer I was extremely disappointed in this process. I would call and ask questions Eric seemed completely annoyed. Then quit answering all together. Things I uploaded and gave Eric i had to do again for Justin. They got me for 10k. I put a 5k deposit down and loan was supposed to be for 220 they were off the 5k on closing so i had to come up with another 5k. It wasn't a smooth process and extremely disappointed in the whole 45 day process.

Hi Clarence,
I’m really sorry to hear how let down you felt during your first homebuying experience. You deserved patient communication, clear answers, and a smoother process overall, and I hate that things felt disjointed and frustrating along the way. I’d really like the chance to look into what happened and talk through your concerns. If you’re open to connecting, you can reach my team at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com whenever it works for you.
Either email, phone or text, they were always in costant contact. The process was really easy. Live up to dates and easy access to the "To Do's List". I really like the "To Do" list. It made it easy to go in and get it all done.
If you are military, this is definitely the way to go!
Sam and his team broke land speed records in processing and granting my 2nd home loan with Veterans United. App was flawless in helping me to submit qualifying paper work. Sam and team worked tirelessly to get me and my dog out of Motel 6 hell in the fastest manner possible. I moved to Portland for VA continued medical services but needed a home immediately. Sam provided this and I am forever grateful to him.
Answered the phone every time with professionalism and quickness. Kept us up to date on everything with no issues.
Brian and the team were exceptional! This is our second home purchase with Veterans United and the consistency of outstanding service is unmatched. I would highly recommend Veterans United to anyone who wishes to work with this amazing team!
Veterans United made my families transition from the north country down south, flawlessly! I wish I would’ve used them sooner. The process was simple and they even checked in throughout the buying process to make sure there wasn’t any questions ! Thank you , my family loves it !
The whole team was very respectful and very transparent! Great Job!
