The process was very easy, it's only as stressful as you make it.
Reece Bader, and Lynette in particular were excellent and extremely encouraging throughout our entire process of purchasing our home. They were kind, sincere, supportive and wonderful to work with and both deserve a raise!
I want to share how positive my overall experience has been with Veterans United.From the very beginning, the process was streamlined and well-organized. After my initial contact, I was reached out to promptly and clearly informed about what to expect moving forward. There were no surprises, no unexpected requirements, and no last-minute changes, which I truly appreciated. Everything was communicated upfront and handled exactly as described.One thing that stood out to me throughout this process was the human element. In a time when so much is automated and driven by systems, AI, and technology, Veterans United managed to balance efficiency with genuine personal connection. At no point did the experience feel cold, detached, or mechanical. I always felt like I was working with real people who cared about the outcome, and that made a meaningful difference to me.I also want to highlight how well the entire team worked together. I did my best to stay responsive and do my part to avoid delays, and the same effort was reflected by everyone involved. The process moved smoothly from start to finish, and that success was largely due to the teamwork and communication throughout. It’s rare for something this significant to come together so seamlessly, and I’m very thankful for that.I was able to find exactly what I was looking for, well under the budget I had in mind, and the financing process was handled without any issues. That’s exactly how this process should work, and Veterans United delivered on that expectation.Having bought and sold three properties, this will be my final home purchase, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with how it was handled. I’m genuinely happy, excited, and grateful to be a customer. I feel well taken care of, confident in the process, and truly in good hands moving forward.Thank you for making this experience such a positive one.Thank you and you're tire team for the Home Warming Gift as well! I am still sorting through it!
Initially I had a great loan officer, then he transfered me to a loan officer that didn't read her emails, didn't submit paperwork in a timely manner (10 days to submit is not timely), and often didn't answer the phone.
The entire team made this process a lot easier than I was originally expecting. Smooth from start to finish, and they got us a really great deal!

All I can say, is that if you’re lucky enough to get Mike on your team, your experience will be even better. Veterans United Home Loans is seriously the best loan company to go through and they really have your back. They answer your questions and don’t abandon you when you’ve locked in a home and are closing or in that process. They’re supportive and answer all questions quickly and take care of a LOT of things on their end to make your life easier. I will always recommend. Thank you for helping me obtain my forever home, because I’m so tired of moving constantly and so is my family. You gave us that peace.
Absolutely horrible experience! Our loan officer completely failed to do any prior paperwork before closing. We had sent him all of our docs 3 weeks before closing and even had a pre-approval, and a extended 45 day closing. He called us 30 hours before closing and told us nothing had gotten done and he "dropped the ball" and we "slipped through the cracks". We had to beg the sellers for an extra 2 weeks to get the needed paperwork filed from our loan rep. He continuously failed us for the remaining 2 weeks with dodgy answers, not explaining why things were taking so long, and us having to do his job for him. For example we needed a VOE and he waited till 4 days into the extension to tell us this, it took us one phone call to get one that he could have easily done! Miraculously we were able to close one day before our contract was up, but no thanks to him!
Response from Veterans United
Hi Zachary,
Buying a home should be an exciting experience, and it's disappointing to hear yours ended with so much uncertainty right before closing. After preparing for weeks and believing everything was on track, I can understand how discouraging it would be to learn there were still outstanding items to complete.
It's also disappointing to hear you were left feeling like you had to chase down answers and navigate parts of the process on your own. Every borrower should feel supported, informed, and confident throughout their loan journey, and I'm sorry that wasn't your experience.
I'd appreciate the opportunity to review your loan and better understand what happened. If you're willing, you can reach me at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
Excellent service Jodi, Sam, Madeline and Thomas. Even my realtor was impressed by Veterans United!
Seth kept all the details straight forward and kept us updated with all information . The application process was very quick and easy as well as the closing.
Nick and his team were outstanding, even though it took longer than expected to close the house, they helped me every step of the way.

Lindsey was amazing to work with throughout our home-buying process. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and always took the time to answer our questions, making what could have been a stressful experience feel much easier. She kept us informed every step of the way and worked hard to ensure everything stayed on track for a smooth closing. We truly appreciated her professionalism and dedication, and we highly recommend Lindsey to anyone looking to buy a home!
Probably the best buying experience I’ve ever had buying anything!
Very easy and a pleasure to work with
Moved heaven and earth to accommodate my military move timeline. Couldn’t have done it without them
Excellent work
Veterans United’s customer service throughout the entire process was top notch. Communication was fast, which kept the home buying timeline on track, I could tell work was always going on and nothing was ever at a standstill. My home buying team, Arlo and Natalie, were personable and accommodating no matter how big or small my questions and concerns were. They were the reason I chose VU over other lenders for my loan.
I’ve now been through the home buying process twice with Shawn Hall at Veterans United, and I can confidently say he is one of the best loan officers I’ve ever worked with. Shawn consistently demonstrated professionalism, communication, and dedication from start to finish. He made every step of the process smooth, straightforward, and stress-free while always taking the time to answer questions and make sure I understood everything along the way. Having worked with him twice now, I can say his level of service and commitment never changes — he truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to make the experience exceptional.I also want to recognize Mackenzie McCarthy, the loan coordinator, for her outstanding work throughout the process. Mackenzie is a proactive hard charger who stays ahead of everything and keeps the process moving efficiently. Her communication, organization, and attention to detail were second to none. She was always quick to respond, kept me updated constantly, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. The teamwork between Shawn and Mackenzie made the entire experience seamless.
I highly recommend Veterans United, especially Shawn Hall and Mackenzie McCarthy, to any veteran or homebuyer looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and hardworking team.
Everyone I worked with was great!
This is an amazing company. You work with a team of experts who truly care. Charles and his team worked so hard for me. They treated me as someone who mattered. I'm so glad I used them. They are experts in dealing with us Veterans. I really can't say enough good things about them and my team.
