Ryan kawelaske is the man! Made everything simple. Any questions I had I called him and he always answered. I think I heard the shower running in the background when I called him outside business hours one time. Another time I heard him ask the waitress for more time before he ordered so he could answer my questions. In all seriousness, he’s the best. Made some stressful times easier. 10/10!

Nick made me feel so safe going through this process. I have trust issues and I can be pretty pessimistic about things, but Nick was wonderful in explaining everything to me, giving me updates on the process at every stage. He really listened to my concerns and focused on allaying them. He was also very proactive preemptive, bringing up questions that I had but hadn’t been able to formulate and verbalize yet. He was kind and approachable without being the overly enthusiastic, over bearing “salesman” type. I could let my guard down.

Veterans United made the home buying experience mostly stress free. Process was simple and to the point, and would always go above and beyond communicating status updates / projections.

Veterans United is unparalleled for home buying. I don't think other companies that say that are VA-backed can do what the people at VU can do. The process was well-detailed. The team I had went above and beyond to help me get my first home and become a homeowner.

Veterans United. Jake Albers. Lionel Messi. LeBron James. “What do these things have in common?” you’re asking yourself. Excellence, industry leading stats, and a tenacious thirst to be the best. While he may not break any NBA records or be the idol to millions of children kicking a soccer ball, Jake Albers and Veterans United will provide the home buying equivalent.

The team I worked with at Veterans United was amazing. Their patience, availability, and professional courtesy were outstanding. As first-time buyers my wife and I had a ton of questions which were always answered and thoroughly explained. Not only did we get a quick deal on a beautiful home, but Veterans United sent us a really thoughtful home warming gift that made us both tear up a bit as it was the first thing we've received in our new home. You guys are awesome! Thank you!

We were in dire straights, our home had mold and I am disabled from Iraq. We turned to an internet search and we found Veteran's United. We went from a hotel to air bnb, but the team was there with us throughout the wait. Their kind words kept me sane, and my mind at ease. They never said we can't or anything negative to us. Sometimes I thought they were Superheroes. I will sing their praises, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to all my Veteran friends, and once again for me and my wife Katrina, and daughter Peyton thanks for our GREAT home and new lease on life.
