This has been a Rollercoaster, thank you for your patience and understanding of the unique characteristics of my industry.
Outstanding
I truly appreciate the support yall gave me and my family. You were stellar
Everything with the team was great. Aside from the underwriter getting really picky about things that required us to submit the same forms multiple time, I enjoyed working with VU!
I have put a lot of thought into if I was going to write this review as I was very frustrated with the way our file was handled. There was poor communication about our loan process. We made it very clear from the beginning that all parties wanted to close early. There was no communication on where our loan was or explanation about anything. At one point when we reached out for an update the response we got from Jackie was “We are going as fast as we can.” This was the same response given to our realtor when we asked for an update. We were able to get docs in within 5 minutes of being requested EVERYTIME, yet you underwriters were caught up not knowing what payroll taxes are. It is extremely concerning that in this industry they don’t understand basic liabilities business owners have. I’m curious what these employees think happens to the deductions from each paycheck. The employer does need to send those to the IRS. This held up our loan for 2 weeks which is ridiculous. When we initially started the process we were told 30 days. It took longer. Once we were put into closing we were told Wednesday or Thursday the following week. We made plans accordingly. When we received the update on Wednesday there was no communication about an expected closing date. Then Thursday we were told it would be Monday. This caused me to need to utilize my only 2 remaining vacation days. This could have been avoided had Britney reached out to Lennar title on Tuesday instead of sitting on her hands until Wednesday causing the closing to be delayed. She told us she did not even attempt contact with them on Tuesday. We offered to reach out and she said she had it. These issues continued into the signing on Monday. The document from this company came in at the last minute. There was no communication from Veterans that the signer would need to sign said document. Britney knew the seller had already signed all her docs. We were almost delayed even further due to a lack of communication on the process Veterans has. As a lender myself I feel this was very unprofessional. There were multiple things with our uploaded docs that were not communicated to us, but I knew because I am in the industry such as signing our P&Ls. I feel Veterans need to assess the docs they request on the 1st request based on the type of business someone owns. Maybe some training for underwriters to understand how businesses operate. This process was ridiculous..
Response from Veterans United
Randolph, it is important to us that we work hard to provide excellent service and we realize that the home buying process can become stressful at times. While we cannot make up for the experience you had, it is important we acknowledge and address what you've shared as communication remains a top priority. We realize that the home buying process can become time consuming when working to gather the required documentation and how it can feel to resolve numerous underwriting requests. Licensed Underwriters comply with VA regulations as well as internal and external guidelines to ensure loans are properly documented. Balancing with our third party partners can also be a time challenge and we are sorry if that caused any undue delays. While Veterans United does not have direct control over the actions of third party providers, it is important that we work together to promote resolution for you. We appreciate your point of view and understand how it can be frustrating when unexpected delays occur. Thank you for sharing your experience so that we might learn and improve where to strengthen our process.
Great overall experience. My team was awesome!!
Entire process was smooth ! Great team and Zach is awesome ! Thank yall so much
I literally could not have been more appreciative of how easy and efficient this home buying process was. Veterans United kept me up to date on documents needing to be completed, setting up a realtor, appointments etc. As a first time buyer they made what can be a very stressful situation into an incredibly enjoyable experience! Thank you veterans united!!!!
My Veterans United Home Buying experience was supreme. Scot Davis and Kari Frank kept me on top of all of the requirements that I had to submit throughout the process. They kept me well informed of what each document was about and what it was for if I had any questions. Their communications were superb whether via E-mail or text. It was a unique process that didn't require a Real Estate Agent but was handled with care and a great deal of attention. I'm thoroughly satisfied with the job that the Veterans United Team has done. Thanks to Scot, we are Veteran Homeowners.
I would highly recommend using Veterans United, and when the time comes to refinance when interest rates come down, I won’t hesitate to call.
They do for us what I think every veteran's done for this country looked out. They stepped in and gave my family and I a chance. Small to some, but for us it has given us a new breath. My kids, have a final place to call home, my better-half can finally do things she has dreamed of doing, not owning has made me feel like I have failed her at times. But Veterans United opened the door and walked me to my first house and saw it through with us. Without them, I am not sure where or what our next move would have ended up. Thank you to my team, for having my families best interest the whole time!

For my first home buying experience, my loan team has helped every step of the way. Addressing all my concern and the options being offered made the process very smooth and stress free. Veterans United continues to strive for excellence and willingness to make the home buying process fun. Thank you to all the agents on the team putting in the best work! Will definitely recommend to anyone looking to purchase a home.
Just wanted to say thank you to everyone for all the help that I received along the way from everyone. The whole process felt very easy to accomplish. Stress free due to the commutation and easy access to web site. Everyone was very helpful. This is the second house I have bought with Veterans United and I would recommend Veterans United to anyone. Also thanks so much for the house warming gift. Great surprise.
Everything went quickly and smoothly. Went into this with no expectations and absolutely zero knowledge on buying a house and the VU team kept my husband and I informed and answered any questions we might have had quickly. Thanks for the gift box as well! It was a welcome suprise!
The whole team was amazing and ensured we were informed always.
Veteran's United is absolutely a wonderful place for Veteran's and their families to get assistance in their home buying journey. They take the intimidating nature of first time home buying and make it simple. Absolutely a terrific experience for our family. Thank you, Veteran's United from the Vawter family!
Zach answered all of my questions and kept in touch throughout the entire process. He went above and beyond to help me.
Buying this house was a painless experience as compared to prior closing.
