Excellent customer services and very prompt!
Thank you Veterans United for taking care of us and making my first time home buyer experience smooth. I appreciate y'all.
4 months 14 days later I'm Finally done with this nightmare. One unnecessary complication after another. I suspect biased service / treatment throughout the ENTIRE process. Very little useful guidance or assistance from my "team" (except for Melissa she was Awesome and did what she could to help) lackadaisical to no communication combined with days of absolutely no progress. My loan officer was out of the office for weeks on end, well aware of the closing date when he left. Reflecting it appears there was no concern or communication about handing off my file to someone that would be in the office able to give my file the attention it needed. To accept a contractual down payment while questioning rent credits from the same funds and contract is mind blowing no one can make that make sense on their best day. In short if Anyone ask me about this company my words will be "RUN AWAY fast and far as you can. There are better options I'm sure!".
Response from Veterans United
Hi Michael,
I can hear how frustrating and exhausting this process was for you. Waiting more than four months and feeling like you were dealing with one complication after another is not the kind of experience anyone expects when buying a home, and I’m truly sorry it felt this way.
Concerns about communication and progress are especially tough. You should never feel like your file isn’t getting the attention it deserves or that you’re left without clear guidance. I’m also sorry that your loan officer being out of the office added to that stress. There should always be a clear plan to ensure continuity and support, particularly when closing dates are involved.
The confusion around the down payment and rent credits sounds incredibly frustrating. If something didn’t make sense, you deserved a timely and straightforward explanation. I’m also concerned to read that you felt biased treatment at any point. That’s something I take very seriously, and I would want the opportunity to look more closely at what happened.
I do appreciate you recognizing Melissa for stepping in and doing what she could to help. I’ll be sure that feedback is shared.
If you’re willing, I would truly value the chance to review your experience in more detail. Please reach out to me directly at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. The Client Advocate team is available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST, Monday through Friday, and if you contact us outside those hours, we typically respond the next business day.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
My loan officer Rhett Thompson and his team guided us through the home buying process and were exceptionally professional. The team kept us informed and communicated what was needed. We closed rapidly and my wife and I are new homeowners. Thanks team!
I was not thrilled with some of your underwriter's requirements. However, Dan and Jenny were always awesome to deal with when I got frustrated. Having people like that can make all of the difference when you are constantly supplying paperwork. Dan and Jenny were always upbeat and never too busy to help.
Torri Thomas, who was our loan officer was superb in all aspects of the loan process. She was there 24/7 to answer all of our questions and explain complex language that are typical on these types of documents to layman's terms that can be easily understood even to us common folks. She was very patient and always gave us the heads-up on what to expect next, so there were never any surprises that we did not know about, so we never felt over or heads with all the paperwork that comes with buying a new home. Torri always makes you feel like she has your back and for that we felt very comfortable though the whole process.Kristine Wilder was part of our loan team, and she kept the process moving along by sending reminders of items that needed our attention or by working with the underwriters to make sure our application moved forward without any problems.Veterans United are very lucky and should be proud to have Torri and Kristine on their staff representing them and working with veterans like us to assist us in bettering our lives and our families' lives....Thank you once again Ms. Thomas and Ms. Wilder for all that you do!
Mark and his team are awesome and ensure that everything has been handled in a timely matter
A real smooth transaction from beginning to end when we hit a rough spot Jamie fixed it promptly
This is our second time working with the team at veterans United, they did a fantastic job! We love working with them. They are always so helpful, no matter how many questions we had. 10/10!
Buying a house is stressful enough, the VA Home Loan team made it easy for me. They walked me through the process from home insurance to the relator.
We had a wonderful experience. Our team who had assisted us was very helpful and knowledgeable every step of the way. Jessica Pratt was outstanding and couldn’t thank her enough for her assistance during this long process for our family.
After 5 years of looking for a home that I wanted and that was in my price range - my credit union was only interested in a house they wanted me to buy. I decided to call Veterans United and, 6 weeks later, I spent last night in my new home! It was the easiest purchase I have ever made. Thank you for all you do for us grumpy old veterans!😁

We would like to thank Whitney Brown and the team at Veterans United for the outstanding job they did. We have never had a team to be so attentive to all our needs. It was a long road but they were on top of everything from start to finish. If you are looking for a home please try Veterans United, they are the best.
Veterans United made the process of buying a home so easy for us. This was our first time buying a home together, and we have heard many horror stories in the past. We were concerned that our experience buying a home would be like those stories. Our experience with Veterans Unoted was quite the opposite. We were kept abreast of where we were in the process. Veterans United gave us far more information than we expected to receive about interest rates, the economy, and how the two were related.I would like to say very directly that Zach, Deena, and their team specifically made this process easy. Working with them felt like a dream in comparison to other stories I heard. Zach was in constant communication with me during the process. He reached out to me often to ensure my wife and I understood what was happening at each point during the process. He was always available to answer any questions that we had. Deena was just as responsive and very proactive, to include submitting inquiries with the lawyers handling the selling side of this deal. If there was information that was required and the sellers did not provide it, Deena sent professional reminders that she was still in need of items.Zach and Deena were on top of things, every second of the way. So much so, the selling agent thought that Zach and his team worked at the local Veterans United office here in Augusta. Both agents (buying and selling) sung the praises of Zach and the team. When I purchase another home I will certainly be using Veterans United again, because I only want to work with Zach. So understand, if Zach goes... I go. Lol, just joking. However, I cannot express enough just how much appreciation my wife and I have for Zach, Deena, and anyone else on the team who helped make this dream come true for us.
Don, Eli, and the rest of the team were great. They made me feel at ease from day one. I’ll be a customer for life.
