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!

The team I worked with are extremely professional. I had a great time purchasing my home, and most of that was because Janeanne and her team did such a good job. Communication and ease of use with their app is top tier.

⭐ 1 Star — By Far the Worst Mortgage Experience I’ve HadI have worked with multiple mortgage lenders over the years, and unfortunately, Veterans United was by far the worst home loan experience I have ever had.The biggest problems throughout the entire process were communication, coordination, document review, and accountability. Everything seemed to be handled at the last possible minute. Documents and information would be submitted well in advance, only for someone to come back later—sometimes weeks afterward—with additional requests or corrections that should have been identified during the initial review.The constant lack of coordination between the loan team and underwriting made the process unnecessarily stressful. Instead of proactively reviewing information and identifying potential issues early, it felt like everything was reactive and pushed onto us at the last minute.What made the experience even more frustrating was the lack of accountability. Mistakes were repeatedly discovered late in the process, but there was little ownership from the people responsible for reviewing and coordinating the loan. At a certain point, it becomes difficult to accept hearing explanations when the same problems continue happening over and over again.Even the closing documents were not handled correctly. A name was misspelled on the mortgage documents, resulting in us having to re-sign closing paperwork because of an error that should never have made it through the document preparation and review process.This was not a small or insignificant transaction, yet the level of attention to detail and customer service felt incredibly careless. We were making one of the largest financial purchases of our lives, and the process often felt rushed, half-finished, and handled with far less professionalism than the situation deserved.I understand that mortgages can be complicated and that unexpected issues can arise. That is not my complaint. My complaint is the repeated pattern of poor communication, inadequate review, last-minute requests, preventable mistakes, and a lack of accountability when those mistakes occurred.Veterans and military families have plenty of options when it comes to VA home loans and mortgage lenders. Based on my experience, I would strongly encourage anyone considering Veterans United to carefully explore those alternatives.Buying a home is already stressful enough. Your lender should make the process more organized and manageable—not create additional problems because basic communication, coordination, and review are repeatedly handled at the last minute.I would not recommend Veterans United based on my experience.

Response from Veterans United

Hi Shane,

Thank you for taking the time to explain what happened. I can understand why, after dealing with the same communication and last-minute issues throughout the process, you walked away feeling frustrated and disappointed with us. You trusted our team with a major milestone, and I’m sorry the experience added more stress instead of making things easier.

Having to repeatedly follow up on documents and then re-sign paperwork because of an error at closing would only add to that frustration. I appreciate you being so specific about where you felt we fell short because it gives us an opportunity to take a closer look at the experience we provided.

I’d really like our Client Advocate team to have the opportunity to hear more about what happened. You can reach us at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com.

Take care,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager

Heidi and the team were amazing throughout the entire process. They had answers to every question and were incredibly attentive. It truly felt like my only responsibility was finding the home, they took care of our family's needs, start to finish.
I cam back to Veteran's United for a new home loan for a reason, and Heidi and her team did not disappoint. Could not be happier with any part of the experience. If I could give them an 11 I would.
