The process went extremely smooth and the team of experts at Veterans United helped with every step of the way to purchasing our first home!
Thanks to all you professionals. It's great what you do for veterans and you made it easy.
Could not have been a better and easier experience made home buying a breeze and no complications at all
All I can say, is that if you’re lucky enough to get Mike on your team, your experience will be even better. Veterans United Home Loans is seriously the best loan company to go through and they really have your back. They answer your questions and don’t abandon you when you’ve locked in a home and are closing or in that process. They’re supportive and answer all questions quickly and take care of a LOT of things on their end to make your life easier. I will always recommend. Thank you for helping me obtain my forever home, because I’m so tired of moving constantly and so is my family. You gave us that peace.
Great communication
I used VU on three separate buys. The first experience was flawless. Ryan Cannon is incredible. He made me want to use VU a second time. That was literally the worst experience I've ever had anywhere. The woman who headed everything up was a (insert explative here)! I thought that this experience was a fluke, so against my better judgement, I used VU a third time. I can't say that the people on the customer facing side was terrible. HOWEVER, VU had in their possession ALL paperwork regarding the home I was buying for almost a month. One week before closing, they throw a water test/inspection on the well water. One week, when they had ALL the info on the house. Thus, delaying signing by over a week. The expertise on your underwriters team is lacking and unprofessional. This never should've happened.
The entire team was amazing from start to finish. Very professional, knowledgeable, and responsive.
This is our second time using veterans united and it won’t be our last! They are hands down the best at what they do. It is always quick and efficient, they check all the boxes and make it a smooth process and once all squared away they fund the loan within the same day. We are so greatful for all the resources they offer to make the move process easy in addition to being the best veteran lenders we have ever experienced. 10/10!
Exec Summary: The loan closed, but the process was marred by poor communication, dismissive leadership, and an insecure obsession with perfect scores over perfect service. Veterans deserve better.Veterans United’s post-closing survey request arrived with all the subtlety of a drill sergeant: “It is expected of us to receive a ‘10’ rating for the company rating on that survey – it would mean the world to us and really help out our team and company. If you think we did a good job, but cannot rate us a 10 it is better not to do the survey.”
Translation: Your honest feedback is welcome… provided it’s flawless. Anything less? Keep it to yourself. This single email speaks volumes about where priorities truly lie at Veterans United—polishing the appearance of perfection over delivering the substance of it.
The loan process itself was a masterclass in mediocrity masked as efficiency. Communication was consistently frustrating: multiple ignored email requests, responses that had zero relevance to the questions asked, and a general sense that correspondence was skimmed at best. I spoke with the loan officer exactly twice—both times only after escalating due to extreme frustration with his “team.” His go-to response? Downplaying clear lapses as minor “oversights” that could be easily dismissed. When you’re entrusting your life’s savings and a home purchase approaching $1 million, “oversight” doesn’t cut it. Veterans deserve professionals who read, comprehend, and respond with precision—not excuses.
This isn’t about one bad apple; it’s systemic. The hands-off, self-checkout-lane approach (“don’t bother us, just do what you’re told”) permeates the experience. The company positions itself as the veteran-first choice, yet treats borrowers—many of them fellow veterans—like inconveniences rather than clients deserving clear, effective leadership that demands the same from its staff.
If the service had truly earned a 10, no arm-twisting would be necessary. Instead, the push for artificial perfection only highlights the gap between marketing and reality. I submitted a 7, which in hindsight felt generous. Would I choose Veterans United again? Absolutely not. Plenty of lenders handle VA loans without making you feel like your feedback is a threat to their ego.
I had a pleasurable experience with Veterans United and even after closing on the home, they said they would be there for any questions I would have. My whole team has been great even through the delays by the seller. I would recommend Veterans United to any veterans looking to use their VA loan to buy a house.
They had very good communication and walked us through every step

Experience first-hand why 362,475 homeowners give us a perfect score!
Totally above and beyond my expectations in every way.
Every body we worked with was great always there when we needed them and happy to answer any questions we had along the way!
I was always under the impression that buying a house would be a very stressful and difficult process. But working with VU completely changed that perspective—it was an unbelievably smooth and straightforward experience. My loan officer, Dustin Johnson, and his team were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and proactive throughout every step. They always kept me informed, answered all my questions promptly, and made sure I understood everything that was happening.Their professionalism and genuine care turned what could have been a nerve-wracking process into something I actually enjoyed. The only downside to closing on my house is that I won’t get to work with Dustin and his team on a daily basis anymore. I truly can’t recommend them enough to anyone looking to buy a home—they made my dream of homeownership a reality, and I’m so grateful for their support.
Justin and our entire Veterans United team made our home purchase experience a true joy! We will absolutely recommend Veterans United to everyone we know! Thank you so very much! Nelda and Lily Frazier.
Ms Emmy Curry and her team were very professional and very knowledgeable about the Refi process they kept me informed in every step of the way and I really appreciate their attention to detail. Thank you
Working with Todd and his team felt like having close family members managing my mortgage loan. I am a disabled veteran, and Todd invested the requisite time to get to know me to fully understand my needs so that he could best serve me from start to finish. To say that I am grateful is an understatement.
Literally amazing. Chris was more helpful than I realized one could be. Made the experience as stressless as possible!!!!
