Great option for veterans. Very helpful and knowledgeable, especially for a first time homebuyer like myself
As much as I work, the team did a superb job accommodating me in my endeavor to purchase my home. The collaboration between the teams were impeccable. I have been impressed with how my home buying experience went. I have spoken to my fellow veterans at work and recommended Veterans United for a great home buying experience. Thank you guys and hope to do another home buying transaction in the future.
My team was great and always kept me updated throughout the entire process.
There was zero guidance on the closing process. As soon as an offer was made all urgency left the team because they knew we would finance with VU. Zero follow up on payment schedules other than pawning our mortgage payment to another company. Avoid VU and save the headache.
Response from Veterans United
Hey Gabriel,
I’m really sorry to hear that you felt on your own once your offer was accepted. You deserved clear guidance through closing and better follow up around what to expect with your payments, and I hate that it felt like things lost momentum right when you needed more support. we’d really like the chance to learn more about what happened and talk through your concerns. If you’re open to it, please reach us at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com.
Kyle Baker and team are wonderful, kind, professional and quick to respond with information.
I would recommend my peers to at least shop around first as I essentially went straight to VU due to a recommendation from a friend who had a great experience.VU does a very good job at streamlining the process almost to a detriment, many times I felt confused as to exactly what needed to be completed because sometimes some of the "checklist" items on my landing page lacked context or specific instructions, this led to things being checked/ asked for last minute or even delaying closing. Additionally, I worked with several different people with different roles, and they never really defined what those roles where, so when I went to ask a question, often times I didn't know who to go to.I mostly worked through a "loan coordinator" who while they were cordial, I had a hard time getting ahold of their office. I had a few times where I called without answer or even left a message that was never responded to. When I did finally get ahold of them, they didn't seem to have many answers on hand and would have to go track them down, they also seemed to follow up on things last minute, leaving us to have to scramble to get requisite answers or follow-up paperwork. I just felt as though all these factors contributed to a delay in the process.Overall I had a decent experience with VU and maybe I had had a bad luck of the draw between the situation I was in, and people assigned to me. My recommendation to others if that if you go with VU, learn everyone's role and be proactive on your loan process.
I would recommend the title company and real estate agents but never my loan officer!
Response from Veterans United
Hey Michael,
I’m glad to hear you had a good experience with your title company and real estate team, but I’m truly sorry to hear you felt let down by your loan experience. That’s not the level of care or respect we want any of our borrowers to feel, and I appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
I’d really like us to review what happened and see how we can learn from your experience. Please reach out to 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. Our team is available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time.

You guys made this process,SO SMOOTH. Thank you for all of your hard work.!!
The entire team was super professional and thorough. I felt I essentially had to do zero legwork. This team was extremely trustworthy as well! Which is a big deal when applying for a big loan!
This was our first time buying a home, and it would not have been possible without Veterans United. It was a smooth and efficient process for us! And, it went pretty quick! From the moment we put down an offer, to when we closed on the house; it took 32 days for us! Very satisfied. They are highly knowledgeable, and really awesome people to work with. Not to mention, they had so many helpful tools and videos on the app that explains everything in perfect detail. It really helped us understand the terminology and home buying process. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you!
Amazing, I appreciate each and everyone at Veterans United they all made this happen for me. Well organized!! Amazing people to work with! Created a smooth process and helped me conquer this goal. Thank you Veterans United… Bravo Zulu!
