I would say my experience working with Veterans United was subpar.Being a first time home buyer is stressful enough, but sometimes not having clear instructions and having to go through so many tasks, made it worse.Though there were reasons that we had to keep pushing back the closing, such as the birth of my son, the winter weather, etc, however, this process took entirely too long to complete.We had to have our house appraised twice, we had to have THREE pest inspections, all of which cost money, the amount of items that we needed to upload, get approved, etc was just insane.I don’t feel as though there was any benefit at all to using my VA home loan other than potentially not having to put a down payment down, but even at that, the numbers in today’s economy are insane.Towards the end when we were going back and forth with our loan officer about potentially putting money towards buying down some points, it was so confusing. There were so many different figures given, I feel as though I was talked to like I wasn’t understanding them however, they were the ones not understanding my questions.I do know there are things out of my control and their control, such as interest rates, etc however, it over all was stressful and not a fabulous first time home buying experience.
Response from Veterans United
Hey Jordyn,
Buying your first home should be an exciting milestone, and I'm sorry the process left you feeling overwhelmed and disappointed. I understand how frustrating it must have been to navigate repeated inspections, additional expenses, and an extensive list of tasks, especially while balancing other major life events. While certain requirements and delays can be outside anyone's control, I know that doesn't make the experience any less stressful.
I'm also sorry to hear that conversations about your loan options and potential rate adjustments left you with more questions than answers. You deserve to feel informed and comfortable with the financial decisions you're making, and clear communication is an important part of that. I appreciate you sharing these concerns and would welcome the opportunity to take a closer look at your experience. Please reach out to my Client Advocate team at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com so I can better understand what happened and address any lingering questions.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
Nicole and her team were great! They answered any questions I had in a timely manner.
I had a wonderful experience with Veterans United. From getting pre-qualified all the way to closing. They helped me navigate some obstacles along the way with the seller. They checked in on me to see how I was doing, really appreciated the personal touch. Great shout out to Tommy and Drew. Would definitely recommend.
We were very satisfied with the whole process. They were very knowledgeable, professional and understanding.Thank you for everything!Miche and Pauline
We did a refi with Aaron at Veterans United. We had a lot of barriers to overcome; most were out of our hands. Overall, Aaron kept us abreast of everything and did his best to get us to the finish line. It's very apparent he genuinely cares about his clients and he's willing to stick up for us when things don't go smoothly. I want to thank Aaron for all of his efforts and can-do attitude.

Veterans United makes the home buying process so simplified. I was able to go throughout the whole process without a real estate agent because of how helpful they were. Jon McCarty and Kyle Black were my main points of contact and are true professionals at what they do!
You can't go wrong with Veterans United Home Loans! They made my application to closing process a breeze. Their thoroughness in research, took care of a title issue that could have become a problem in the future! Great thanks for all their support!
