Very professional people who went out of their way to help me through the mortgage and lending process.
A big thanks to both Brian and Chris.
Justin and the team at Veterans United were outstanding from start to finish. 10/10 experience.Justin regularly followed up with us throughout the process, but never in a way that felt pushy or like he was pestering us. He was quick to answer our questions, especially as we worked through the details of our VA home loan, and he made the whole process feel much easier to understand.One thing that really stood out to us was the personal touch. When one home we tried to put an offer on fell through, Justin was genuinely sympathetic and encouraging. That meant a lot to us and made us feel like we were working with someone who actually cared, not just someone trying to close a loan.The Veterans United portal was also easy to follow and helped keep everything organized along the way. We are very thankful for Justin and the whole team, and I will absolutely be recommending Veterans United to all my fellow vets in the future.
Allow me to thank Eric Johnson and his team for ALL their help!!!This is our 2nd home purchase with Eric and Vetrans United and they never cease to amaze me. Their personal approach and genuine concern about my families happiness and well being is a refreshing change.
I would definitely recommend Eric and Vetrans United to family and friends alike.V/R

I’ve now been through the home buying process twice with Shawn Hall at Veterans United, and I can confidently say he is one of the best loan officers I’ve ever worked with. Shawn consistently demonstrated professionalism, communication, and dedication from start to finish. He made every step of the process smooth, straightforward, and stress-free while always taking the time to answer questions and make sure I understood everything along the way. Having worked with him twice now, I can say his level of service and commitment never changes — he truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to make the experience exceptional.I also want to recognize Mackenzie McCarthy, the loan coordinator, for her outstanding work throughout the process. Mackenzie is a proactive hard charger who stays ahead of everything and keeps the process moving efficiently. Her communication, organization, and attention to detail were second to none. She was always quick to respond, kept me updated constantly, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. The teamwork between Shawn and Mackenzie made the entire experience seamless.
I highly recommend Veterans United, especially Shawn Hall and Mackenzie McCarthy, to any veteran or homebuyer looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and hardworking team.
We're very pleased with Sarah and her team very professional. Delt with her before when we first bought our home. Both experiences were great. Just loved working with them. 🙂🙂
Very professional and knowledgeable team.They kept up informed and explained anything we needed clarification on.

The whole home buying process was smoother than I ever thought it would be. Courtney, Bailey, and Nacim were all great! I am a first-time home buyer and I'm grateful I had this team to help me. This is a 10 out of 10 team.
Kelsey made this process very hard. There were many times that I asked a specific question and she answered in regards to something else. She would make changes and send me screenshots of a document as proof of her change, but if she had scrolled down one more page she would have seen her change was erroneous, but it took me calling her out and showing her the error. I was asked to pay more for an appraisal, however upon my research it was found that wasn't even something myself or the lender could approve it had to come from the VA and would be paid by the seller and that there was an official request form. This is something the lender should have looked into prior to requesting I pay more. I requested an earlier close date and nobody from the team responded to me saying it could happen. The only indication I had that it was happening was because I received a todo to change my HOI effective date. There were times I had uploaded documents and later Kelsey would ask for them and then say she didn't see I had uploaded them. I am not sure if she is new, but it definitely seems like she could use some training and learn to communicate better with the person trying to get the loan.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Evelyn,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I'm sorry to hear the loan process felt frustrating and that communication didn't meet your expectations. It sounds like there were several moments where you were left repeating yourself, catching errors, and searching for answers on your own. I understand how discouraging that would be, especially during such an important milestone.
I appreciate you sharing these specific examples. Feedback like yours helps us better understand where we need to improve, whether that's communication, document handling, or ensuring questions are fully addressed throughout the process. I'm sorry we didn't provide the level of service you expected.
I'd like the opportunity to learn more about what happened and review your experience with the team. If you're willing, please reach out to me at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. The Client Advocate team is available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, and if you contact us outside those hours, we'll typically respond the next business day.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
OK, so, I have always preferred renting for the convenience, but then about a year ago I was somehow inspired to buy a home, if I could find the right now. I h ad stumbled onto VU and had contacted them with my interest in doing a VA loan, which would be my first. My best friend "sister" and I spent months trying to find one close to her house, (My mom has dementia and I am her caregiver and my friend and her family have helped me care for her and she has become part of their family) Unfortunately, they were all high priced and still a bit away distance-wise, so we kind of tabled it for another time. For anyone who doesn't think prayer works, they might want to recheck that! A mutual friend of ours owned a house literally across the street, and one day she told us that she and her husband were going to move back to TX and they decided to finally sell the house. Once my friend told her about me wanting it, she didn't even list it, instead doing a FSBO, which took out the middle man. I contacted Alec and crew to tell him I had finally found a house and he was so excited for me! He literally took care of everything and brought in Elizabeth and Blake to hold my hand through the process, which took less than a month! When they said they were going to do something, they did it and with high quality caring. They found a title company locally that also was awesome with very helpful and attentive people. They even had gotten a beautiful sign made for my craft room! It was one of the very few times in my life that I have done business with an organization/company where it was obvious these people had answered a calling to do this and genuinely loved it. They are an example of what customer care (aka service) is supposed to be like. I've been an RN for over 30 years, and a psychotherapist for over 7 years, so I know first hand the importance of making sure my clients feel taken care of. I have their phone numbers starred in my contact list, and whenever I meet a fellow Veteran wanting to purchase, Veterans United will be THE first company, and they will be the first names I give out. Somebody, please give these folks a raise, or at least a nice Christmas bonus!
Thanks for everything and Merry Christmas!

Emily, Anthony, and the rest of my Team went beyond their scope of duties to get us across the finish line to get us approved so we could refinance hour home loan to a lower mortgage payment.
Bob and his team were incredibly helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable. This was my first home purchase, so I was nervous, but they made the process so smooth.
Very professional and available for any assistance if needed. Smoothest move yet.
Everyone has been so helpful and made things smoother

Rachel Gruber helped me buy my first house and the process was easy and straightforward. She was there to answer any questions I had and give advice on any of my concerns.
This is my third time using Veterans United. Shawn Workman and the whole team was great. I would definitely use Veteran’s United if I choose to refinance in the future.
