Veterans United made the home buying process for me, a first time home buyer, absolutely seamless. My home loan team was phenomenal and absolutely on top of every question and detail. They were addressing any issues or updates in near real-time speeds and would reach out to me before I had a chance to see for myself; this was especially nice considering I am completely inexperienced and received all updates in full clarity. Overall my experience with Veterans United was fantastic and I would recommend to service members and non-service members alike any day.
Kaleb and his team were there when we needed them to be.
Very professional
I appreciate the professionalism of your company. Everyone knew (not guessing) what their job was and executed almost perfectly. My end had a minor glitch. Your company is amazing. I am positive that other companies should follow how you handle business , then people would know what they are doing and not guessing.
I highly recommend using Veterans United Home Loans. If I had to do it all over again, knowing what I know now, there’s no question that I’d use Veterans United again.
Great work.
I would highly recommend the team as they were so helpful and made the experience so less stressful
The whole team was excellent to work with. They communicated well, had an answer to all my questions, and overall made the process seamless. I absolutely would recommend them to anyone and plan to use them again myself.
Great team thanks for the patience and your help! This was a great experience.
Working with Chris and Brock were fantastic. My initial and continued contact with Chris was very positive. It is an incredibly difficult time to purchase a home, and both were very supportive and patient with Brock checking in on us frequently, but not in a manner that felt pushy or ingenuine. Nicky was awesome, and always checking up on us, making sure all our question were answered.As for the Home Inspector, I was disappointed. After conducting the inspection, they advised all parties the home was ineligible for a home loan as it fell in a Costal Barrier Zone. A 30 second Google search showed that that was not the case, which was then confirmed by my attorney. When presented with these findings, the denial was quickly walked back. It is concerning as the information was readily available and easily accessible, suggesting this department of Veterans United was more than willing to just give up without looking further into the issue. Had my attorney and I not done any research and took the initial assessment prima fascia, we would not have a home.After settling this, we moved on with the process and Nico was assigned to us as our loan coordinator. Nico was terrific, personable, and extremely easy to work with. He helped guide us through the process, and ensured we had a shared understanding on the all the requirements.The underwriting was the most frustrating part of this process, and I did not feel it was fair that Nico had to be the messenger through all this. During the entire process, I was continually assured that May 2nd would be the closing date with zero inclinations of a deviation from that date. It would have been perfect, as I would be leaving for a month for some training immediately after. About two weeks before this, I had submitted a check for the downpayment on the home and did not hear any other information about it until the day prior on May 1st. May 1st, the underwriter decided to begin asking for proof and the origins of these funds, which is something that could have and should have been handled the weeks prior. It was extremely frustrating as I felt as if the questions and source requests were never ending which forced us to move the closing to the next week. This forced me to miss the closing on my own home, and my wife had to sign and close on it herself. This was extremely disappointing, which is putting it lightly. We married in a courthouse as I was deploying immediately after, missed our first year of marriage, our first anniversary, and our first Christmas due to the deployment, so we were extremely excited to finally share ONE significant life event together. I feel as the inability for the underwriter to properly communicate what was needed or communicate it in a timely manner stole this from Us, and it was very infuriating and frustrating altogether.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Michael,
First, thank you for the thoughtful and honest feedback. I can tell how much this experience meant to you, and I’m really sorry that parts of the process caused such deep frustration—especially when it impacted such an important milestone in your life.
It’s great to hear that Chris, Brock, Nicky, and Nico were a positive part of your journey and that they supported you with care and patience throughout. But I’m really sorry we missed the mark when it came to the inspection confusion and the timing of underwriting. You’re absolutely right—those are things that should have been handled much more clearly and well in advance. Hearing that the miscommunication around your down payment caused you to miss your own closing, after all you’ve already given and missed due to your service, is heartbreaking. That’s not something we take lightly.
I’d really like my advocates to take a deeper look at what happened and share your feedback with our leadership. If you're open to talking more, you can reach us directly at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. We’re in the office from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central, but don’t hesitate to reach out anytime.
Thank you again—not just for your feedback, but for your service and sacrifices.
Our experience with Greg Heins & his team was more than we could have imagined. They went above and beyond helping us in getting our “dream retirement home”.
The team went above and beyond to make my home buying experience light and easy. It was a pleasure and privilege doing business with them.
The entire process was smooth and the communication was excellent.
cannot say enough great things about Veterans United Home Loans! From start to finish, the entire team made the homebuying process smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable. They were incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly cared about helping me achieve my dream of homeownership. Every step of the way, I felt supported and informed.
Their online tools made the paperwork simple, and my loan team worked tirelessly to make sure everything stayed on track. Special thanks to [Loan Officer’s Name if you want to add] and the whole crew for going above and beyond. If you’re a veteran or service member looking to buy a home, Veterans United is hands down the best choice. Thank you for everything!”
Too many phone calls from different people. Seems like the right hand had no idea what the left hand was doing.

Hey Howard,
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really sorry it felt like there were too many people reaching out and things weren't as coordinated as they should’ve been. That’s definitely not the experience we want for our Veterans or anyone trusting us with such an important milestone.
I'd really like the my client advocate team to have the chance to dig into what happened and learn from your experience. If you’re willing, please reach out to our us at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com.

We’ve been searching for a home for about 4 years and Carl Thomas from Veterans United has been such a blessing this last year working with us. Carl and his team worked hard to get us approved for a loan and I will be forever grateful. Thank you Veterans United, Carl Thomas, and his team!
I really enjoyed working with this company. Everyone was very knowledgeable and helpful. They made this process very easy and clear.
