Nowhere else to start other than outstanding! From the beginning to the end, Chris's team was amazing, they were all super responsive, answered any questions immediately and made the process an enjoyable experience. I would really like to thank Chris, Maxwell, Drew, Andrew, and Vickie. Thank you all so much from the bottom of our hearts for making this process so easy.

This was an outstanding experience. Luke did a wonderful job keeping me update on everything that was going on and getting through the speedbumps. I would 100 percent recommend VU to any veteran looking to get a new home!

We first contacted Blake at VU home loans last November. He got an initial estimate together and was super helpful. We changed our minds because we had plans to move to Florida. He was still helpful and told us to contact him if we needed help securing a home loan in Florida. We decided to stay at our current home and wanted to do a refinance and he couldn’t have made it easier. It took around a month and we closed on our loan. Thanks so much Blake and team. We are so pleased with the whole experience.

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.

I couldn’t be more pleased with Jordan and his team. In our initial conversation I told him to explain the process to me as if he were teaching a child how to buy a house. Jordan and his team did an excellent job of keeping me informed and explaining the process so I fully understood everything.

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.

The title company we used for the closing had great things to say about Veterans United. They have had friends and families who had used them as well. Very impressive

I can't believe how seamless this experience was so that buying my home was such a rewarding and easy process!! I got to communicate (and sometimes in depth) with a few loan reps and felt so satisfied with each conversation. They make it very comfortable and very professional, just what I would expect and hope out of this experience! I highly recommend Veteran's United!

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.

You cost me money. It was all set up to have the closing cost in the buyers money and I was told the closing cost was $8000.00 so that left $2000.00 to get back to cover the appraisal and bug inspection and anything else that came up. I said earlier in the application time not to pay down the interest or points on the interest and but no they went and used $3000.00 to pay down the interest and there was another problem that had to be fixed to get the seller the right amount of money that they were to receive after all the problems and payment to lower my interest that made me have to pay $300.00 at closing and I was told that’s what I was getting back wrong! I didn’t bring my check book and that caused problems to fix real fast. You made my closing a real bad experience and the person closing didn't like it or the seller made things take longer and me look stupid because I didn’t know what was going on. The day before fixing application because they didn’t have the right amounts and changing my interest and said that I was still going to get $2000.00 back to cover some of the things I had to pay for. So o I am not happy.

Response from Veterans United

Hi Ricky,
I’m sorry your closing experience left you feeling frustrated and caught off guard. Buying a home is already a significant process, and I understand how upsetting it can be when the numbers and expectations you had going into closing don’t match what you encounter at the closing table.

I’d like the opportunity to take a closer look at your concerns, including the changes you described and the communication leading up to closing. Please reach out to the Client Advocate team at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com so I can learn more about what happened.

Our team is available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday. Messages received outside those hours are typically answered the next business day.

Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
