This is our second time working with Veterans United, and once again, they exceeded our expectations. They make the home-buying process smooth, efficient, and stress-free. Their expertise in working with veterans is evident, and they truly understand the unique needs of military families.From start to finish, the team was professional, communicative, and proactive in addressing any questions we had. We’re incredibly thankful that lenders like this exist to support veterans and their families. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, veteran-focused lender.

Derek understood that I was going to be doing overseas prior to this refinance. He remained patient with me and followed up with as soon as I returned from my trip like we agreed. Great follow through and management skills!

Derek and the entire Team was outstanding. They were so amazingly knowledgeable and so quick to respond and was always moving forward thru the whole process. The professionalism was always there . I have bought a few homes and this one was by far my best experience hands down. I highly recommend them as they help veterans like myself. It reflects great credit to the company and everyone involved in this. Thank you
