I would absolutely recommend Veterans United to re/finance their home loans. As the name applies they truly do have the best interests of the veteran in mind.
Veteran's United as a whole has always done great for me! This is my 2nd home loan through VU and they have always been prompt, thorough, and super helpful.
My experience with Veterans United was a very positive. Initially, my credit score was a few points shy to be preaqualified. However, the Veterans United Staff kept me from being discouraged and explained that there were reaources in place (Lighthouse Program) to assist in getting my credit score needed for pre qualification and preapproval. My credit specialist Scott was very knowledgeable and put together a strategic plan for me to stick to in order to get the desired results. I took about two months to get where I needed to be but we made it.
Kelly was great. Once we were handed off the Lisa, it was not a pleasant experience. This process became more stressful than it should have due to her lack of coordination, communication and time management. I had to reach out to Lisa the day before our expected closing since we hadn’t heard from her, only to find we still needed 4 items. She never reached out to us. It was extremely disappointing and frustrating working with Lisa.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Heather,
Thank you for sharing this. I’m glad to hear Kelly made a positive impression, but I’m really sorry the experience changed after the handoff. Not hearing from your loan team until the day before an expected closing, only to learn that multiple items were still needed, would be incredibly frustrating and stressful.
That kind of lack of coordination and communication isn’t what we want for anyone, especially during such an important milestone. I understand why this left you feeling disappointed, and I appreciate you being candid about where things broke down.

Kelsey Riggs and her team provided an exceptional experience from start to finish. While home buying is often notorious for being difficult and full of obstacles, they made the entire process streamlined and stress-free. Their professionalism, kindness, and efficiency truly set them apart! FANTASTIC experience!
Closed on time, great interest rate, easy app to use and track progress. Everyone was very friendly and kept the train on the track all the way to closing. I’d use them again for-sure.
Brian Bradley was our Champion leader but we also want to say a Special thank you to Zach Brown & Jeremy Salas! What an Awesome Team! I pray God continues to use you guys to make another Veteran's family's dream come true! God Bless You All. Beauford & Wanda Franks

Experience first-hand why 367,041 homeowners give us a perfect score!
Very kind and communicative. They took the time to know me and my realtor.
I want to thank you all for everything Veterans United did for me. There no way I could have done it without you all. It's greatly appreciated. I could be the post child. Ha ha. 3 years ago, I was prison with dreams and goals. It's only through grace of God that this happened.
Thanks.
