To be fully upfront, the initial process was amazing. Everyone was very helpful, and we were moving through everything perfectly. The team was excellent and met all of my standards. However, things started to go downhill once contract talks began. The team began dropping the ball and failed to maintain the professional standards they claim to uphold. Communication became almost impossible, and certain key people were nonexistent. If the process had remained smooth all the way through, this would be a very different review. Unfortunately, the ball was dropped, and I hope you can use this feedback to turn things around and strive for better in the future.

Hey Addison,
Thank you for sharing this honest feedback. I’m really glad to hear the beginning of your experience felt smooth and supportive, and that the team initially met your expectations. That makes it even more disappointing to hear how things changed once you moved into the contract phase.
I’m sorry for the drop in communication and the inconsistency you experienced. You should feel the same level of support and professionalism from start to finish, and it’s clear we didn’t maintain that here. I understand how frustrating it must have been to feel like key moments weren’t handled with the attention they deserved.
I appreciate you calling this out, and I’d really like the opportunity to look into what happened and where we fell short. If you’re open to it, please reach out so I can learn more and help however I can.
You can contact me at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. The Client Advocate team is available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday, and we typically respond the next business day if you reach out after hours.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
Outstanding support and service. Phillip Kast and Anna were exceptional throughout the entire process.
We truly appreciate all the support Phillip and the team provided along the way. The process definitely had its moments, but everything came together in the end, and we’re grateful for the effort everyone put in to help us get across the finish line.To God be the glory!Jim & Gigi Hampton
I worked closely with Max Carratura while going through the lending process. He was extremely responsive and made me feel comfortable and confident through my home buying experience. I would absolutely recommend VU as well as Max.
Kelly was great. Once we were handed off the Lisa, it was not a pleasant experience. This process became more stressful than it should have due to her lack of coordination, communication and time management. I had to reach out to Lisa the day before our expected closing since we hadn’t heard from her, only to find we still needed 4 items. She never reached out to us. It was extremely disappointing and frustrating working with Lisa.

Hi Heather,
Thank you for sharing this. I’m glad to hear Kelly made a positive impression, but I’m really sorry the experience changed after the handoff. Not hearing from your loan team until the day before an expected closing, only to learn that multiple items were still needed, would be incredibly frustrating and stressful.
That kind of lack of coordination and communication isn’t what we want for anyone, especially during such an important milestone. I understand why this left you feeling disappointed, and I appreciate you being candid about where things broke down.
If you’re open to it, our Client Advocate team would like to look into what happened and review your feedback. You can reach them at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. They’re available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, and messages outside those hours are typically returned the next business day.

Great customer service always following up questions and concerns in a timely manner..
Everything went very well and whenever I had a question if got quick responses. They offered a lot of help with every aspect of the home buying experience. Great team to work with!!!
I have dealt with Blake on several occasions and am always happy with his dedication and helpfulness.
Veterans United made the home buying process for us first time home buyers very easy! They helped us with everything along the way, including setting us up with a realtor in the area we were looking in! They stayed on top of everything and made sure that we were prepared for everything along the way! I love how everything can be done online, the to-do list made things so much easier for me, being able to see what still needs to be done and what has been completed in such a user-friendly fashion. I don’t have any other company to compare them to, but we had such a great experience that I’m sure if we ever buy another home, Veteran’s United will have our business again!
Everyone involved were Fantastic! Buying a home is TOTALLY stressful!! All the folks were knowledgeable and very helpful!! And I appreciate everyone’s involvement and help! Thanks to all!
Jon and the rest of the team are wonderful to work with. I really appreciate everyone of them. Thank you for your help throughout the whole process.
Overall it was a great experience. I would recommend Veterans United to a friend that meets the requirements.

All agents were very helpful and proactive. They made it as easy as possible to purchase our home.
This was our second time working with VU, and you were great once again. Can’t say enough about how great Hanna and her team were throughout the entire process
Everyone was so helpful - quick to explain when I had questions, the timeliness of replies was very impressive, and the review of all the documents was extremely quick!
