Surprisingly easy to by my first house with these guys.
Rob and Catrina did an amazing job with helping me get this deal closed. They went above and beyond and ensured that I understood everything and every step of the process. I really appreciate Rob for recommending my real estate agent Ramona as well. She was amazing!
Happy to have found a place we can call home!! Thank you Veterans United!
Everyone was amazing and I will definitely recommend veterans united to anyone who ask. My only somewhat issue was the first person I spoke to was Dane and he was great but somewhere along the line I was switched to Jake and he was great but it was kinda confusing especially when you’re getting use to and comfortable talking with someone and then they kind of pass you off to someone.
To start off I’d like to say this was one of the most painful lenders I’ve ever chosen to use. The loan officer was more of a car salesmen than someone trying to get my refinance closed out. But really the person who I’d say was very unhelpful was Michelle Zeller. Not only did it seem like she was apathetic the entire process. Her and Jeff would not answer the phone. Instead id usually get a text reply or a “sorry I didn’t even see your message on the phone”. Then when I’d ask if there was anything I needed she would say “well I need some stuff from your HOA and the title company. But I haven’t heard back, maybe you could call?” Really? Me call? I’m fairly certain by the way that she would not reach out to anyone by phone. Judging from when I called these companies. They referred to her emails. Which never received certain emails she claimed to me to have sent to them. But a 45 day close that I asked to have moved as quickly as possible turned into a 52 day close for what seemed like no reason other than them not trying to get anything done faster than their 9-5 required. TLDR they moved slowly, didn’t answer the phone and I’m fairly certain gave me the run around when they finally did respond to me. The reason I didn’t not give a 1/10 is because it closed and I didn’t have to start the process over.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Andrew,
I’m really sorry to hear how stressful this refinance felt for you. When you’re trying to move things along quickly and you’re not getting the communication or clarity you expect, it can make the whole process feel much harder than it should. I understand why the delays and difficulty reaching the team left you so frustrated.
I’d really appreciate the chance for my team to review what happened and make sure your concerns are fully heard. If you’re open to talking more, you can reach me at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. My team is here from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, and if you reach out after hours we’ll typically follow up the next business day.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m here if you’d like to walk through it together.
Veterans United Was absolutely amazing from start to finish. When we first applied for this loan we weren’t quite there yet with our credit. Instead of being told no like we were several times in the past with other lenders, vets United Went above and Beyond and put us in contact with our credit consultant Charlie. He told us exactly what we needed to do in order to get our credit where it needed to be and within no time we were ready to talk to our loan officer! Darin was amazing And also went above and beyond to get us preapproved and helped us through the entire loan process. Morgan was our Loan coordinator and she was absolutely amazing! She answered every single one of our questions on a day-to-day basis And made this entire process smooth and very stress free! Kohlie was Our concierge she was very informative and very friendly! We are very grateful for our entire loan team. Veterans United made my Husband and I feel so appreciated for his service. I would absolutely recommend veterans United to any veteran looking to buy a home! We will absolutely be passing on the word to friends! Thank you so much Veterans United, for making our home owning dreams become a reality!
This experience was magnificently efficient, pleasant and incredibly informative! Everybody was extremely professional and patient with me. I've never done anything like this before, but I can't imagine doing it without the help of such a fine group of people.
I just love the team that worked with me and my wife they were extremely helpful - friendly I thank everyone very much we are extremely happy with our house if I hear of anyone needing a VA loan I will recommend this team you all have a very merry Christmas and a Happy New year
Ready to see for yourself?
Experience first-hand why 356,300 homeowners give us a perfect score!
Absolutely top notch guidance and communication from each team member I dealt with. The main thing I forgot was to have consistent patience with the process; especially with repeat questions/clarification if there is an unusual situation with your move.Thank you to David, Chris, and everyone else that helped us through this process!!
The entire process from applying to closing was extremely easy. The team was attentive to all aspects of owning our first home, from running numbers for us, to finding the best insurance and even getting set up with utilities, just to name a few. Using Veterans United I don't see how you could be disappointed.
The people at veterans United are very helpful and thorough in their process. I am very happy with the results.
As mentioned above in my initial write up - here is my review thank you VU for being such an outstanding company/organization. All realtors love working with you all, and most sellers that never heard of you, loved you once it was all over and deal was over and completed. Hannah Liebhart and her entire team , Lauren Sprague, Emily Gandy, Kole Berry, and others I am sure behind the scene, did an outstanding job again....what a team effort.Precise execution of loan processing, and all upstream and downstream processes. This is my 4th and FINAL home, we finally got the dream home we always wanted. I will forever keep VU near and dear to my heart!Signed, Paul S. United States Navy Veteran, RM5, JC:2318
