Smooth start. Horrible bumpy ending once we got to underwriting, Constantly going in circles and honestly gave me the impression that I was being scammed until everything finally closed. Communication was scarce. And to find out this company has no actual affiliation with the VA leaves me speechless considering “Veteran’s” is literally in the name. Please consider a name change instead using that word as a cash grab to lure service members in.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Jessie,
I’m really sorry for how difficult the final stretch of your loan felt. Going in circles during underwriting and struggling to get clear communication can be exhausting, and I understand why that would leave you feeling uneasy right up until closing. That’s not the experience we want for anyone.
I also hear your concern about our name and VA affiliation. While we’re not part of the Department of Veterans Affairs, we are a VA-approved lender that focuses on serving Veterans and military families. Still, I understand how important clarity and transparency are, and I’m sorry if that wasn’t clearly explained along the way.
Your feedback about communication and the underwriting process is important, and I’d appreciate the chance for our Client Advocate team to review what happened and learn from it. If you’re open to reaching out, you can contact us at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
Veterans United really helped us get a home. My spouse and I were not doing well credit wise, one call changed it all. We got set up with the lighthouse program and in 10 months we were ready. During that time , Veterans United kept reaching out and checking up on our progress... they didn't give up on us. The whole process was fast to say the least. Veterans united took care of everything , and we honestly used their partnerships and programs to get everything else squared away , because it is not only quicker , but honestly money saving as well. If you are on the fence , I really encourage you to reach out and talk to someone at least. Talking to someone is what got us started.And we absolutely knew zero about home buying.
Ask questions! They are here to help. But also don't be afraid to do your own research. We are so happy with our new home and being proud veteran home owners!
I work in finance/banking. I am very impressed with Blake’s ability to close on a rather complex loan. Looking forward to doing more loans in the future

The app makes it too easy to get “To-Do” list items knocked out.
Haley and her team were phenomenal at making sure every aspect of my move was covered. Alot of work behind the scenes was greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
The VU team made us feel comfortable and appreciated throughout the whole process - from well before we were under contract, to the day we closed, and even beyond. They were quick to respond to all of our questions, no matter the complexity and we always felt like we were their number one priority. The team was highly skilled, efficient, and empathetic - it felt like we had all been friends for years! I appreciate all the hard work VU put in to get us where we needed to be on closing day and would recommend them 1000 times over!
I have been working with Veterans United in all my home purchases and they never fail. I have worked with an amazing team. Always exceed my expectations. Highly recommend.

Awesome team with great efficiency and met all requirements of a very pleasant home mortgage transaction process. The efficiency of managing third party vendors and last minute urgency to accomplish a seemingly simple but 11th hour gotten complex situation into a very plausible and meeting project deadlines. Again awesome team. And your loan officer how did Jamie kindergarten do
As I stated previously, this has been the best home buying experience I've ever had. Angelica, Jocelyn, and everyone involved was top-notch! Thank you to everyone at Veterans United for helping Veteran's like me become home-owners!
The Veteran United team made the entire process—from prequalification to closing—smooth and straightforward. They were extremely professional throughout.
Veterans United,was perfect,and Helpful.Thx
