Chase and his entire team worked diligently and tirelessly to get me funded for the home just closed on. They always kept me up to date and in task for the requirements necessary. Nothing but Gold Stars for each one!!
The entire team was amazing
Felt they genuinely wanted to give me the best mortgage rate possible. Even after shopping around , VU was my top choice .
I want to give a special salute to Tyler Dunn, who helped me secure my refinance loan.
He kept me totally informed every step of the way, through the entire process.
He is definitely a great asset to Veterans United.
I want to take this opportunity to thank and commend both Andy Harris and Taylor Staelens. Both were with me every step of the loan process and provided me invaluable assistance. Thank you both!
This is my second time using Veterans United and if I can buy 22 more houses I would use Veterans United for all of them
Lora Grenier did an awesome job as loan coordinator but between my Loan officer Abbie and my realtor Rhonda, I have never felt like more of a middle man in my life. The feed back and follow up communication was cast into the days of telegram. There were more questions than answers. When Lora sent out the email list by name and responsibilities the items that needed to be completed, out of my control.. I had no response from the responsible parties, Abbie, Rhonda. I had to actually ask for documents with a possible follow up from Abbie or Rhonda days later. I don’t mind doing a little leg work but if I’m not privy to the info as a buyer I should be informed of when a document is moved forward, this was not the case. After waiting for days to see if a task had been completed, I would follow up, only to be told everything was taken care of and then a week later it turns out it wasn’t. No one was on the same page. Because of this fumbling, we missed closing date twice and finally we were able to close the third time around, but didn’t have the actual date and time until the afternoon before. Luckily the sellers didn’t back out after this total mess. I found the process to be shaky and unresolved at times I found the value in my time to be worthless. I think the shortcomings of this company are its ability to communicate in a reasonable time frame with clarity, feedback, and resolve. I felt good coming in but I felt left in the dark at the end with a big congratulations. Good customer service has become hard for many companies to pass on to the consumers and I feel the same here. Do better, hire better, more ambitious, competent, and considerate employees would greatly change a guys mind. Personally I don’t think folks strive to do a bad job but if it’s your job, do it well. I understand this may sound harsh but the truth is your scope of work is your scope of work… do that work and you cannot fail. Folks spend a lot of money here and the last thing some average joe working his butt to make a life wants to do is your job. I will not recommend this company to any, friend, family members, or employees of mine. Bad taste in my mouth.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Jeremy,
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. I’m glad to hear Lora made a positive impression and worked hard to help keep things moving, but I’m very sorry the overall experience left you feeling frustrated, unsupported, and stuck in the middle of communication gaps throughout the process.
I can understand how discouraging it would be to repeatedly follow up on items outside of your control, especially when timelines continued to shift and expectations weren’t clearly communicated. Buying a home should feel coordinated and transparent, and I’m sorry that wasn’t your experience here. Missing closing dates and receiving last-minute updates only adds more stress to an already important and emotional process.
Your comments about communication, follow-through, and clarity are important, and I appreciate you being honest about how this experience impacted your trust in our team. I also recognize how much time, effort, and energy goes into purchasing a home, and I’m sorry you were left feeling like your time and concerns were not valued appropriately.
I’d appreciate the opportunity to learn more about your experience and review the concerns you raised. If you’re willing, please reach out to me directly 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. CST, and messages received outside those hours are typically returned the next business day.
Sincerely,

Tyler and team were great to work with! I’ve purchased 8 homes and this was by far the easiest process I’ve e we gone through. Highly recommend!
Seth made the entire VA home loan process straightforward and stress-free. He stayed on top of everything, communicated clearly, and didn’t waste time with unnecessary back-and-forth. Anytime I had questions, he broke things down in a way that actually made sense. You can tell he knows the VA process inside and out and genuinely cares about getting it done right.
Maggie was very efficient and kept me informed about everything that was going on.
Thank you all so much. I’m forever grateful for your help and guidance through this process and was very easy home buying experience.
This was the easiest house buying experience I could have imagined. This team was awesome.
The most amazing experience that I have ever experienced in my life. Outstanding service and personnel!!
The home buying process with smoothly. Veterans United has a great team working with me. I was a first time home buyer and the team was there to answer my questions and concerns.
Everything was a complete lack of professionalism from the get go. The realtor was rude and negotiated in bad faith which really made us lose all trust in her. We also were threatened with repercussions when we said we wanted to terminate the wentire deal due to being treated like shit through the whole process. The lender told me I was full of shit when I told him rates had been dropping for almost a month but our rate remained the same. We were promised a rate break for using their shitty realtor. That didn’t happen. I sent screen shots of the rate drops and never a peep. He also told me that he would just call my wife instead of me because he has no spine and is a coward to not be able to talk to the man. We were treated as second rate and bullied and threatened into continuing with them “or else”. DO MOT RECOMMEND. I will make sure on every veteran page and post that you are not recommended. Good job taking advantage of vets.

Hey Nicholas,
I’m very sorry to hear how frustrated and disrespected you felt throughout your experience. Buying a home should never leave someone feeling pressured, dismissed, or unheard, and I can understand why this process damaged your trust. Your concerns about communication, professionalism, and how you were treated are serious, and I appreciate you taking the time to share them.
At Veterans United, we want every borrower to feel supported and respected throughout the process, and I’m sorry this experience did not reflect that. I would appreciate the opportunity to learn more about what happened and review your concerns further with the appropriate teams.

Jason Bals with Veteran United Mortgage was outstanding throughout the entire home buying process. He made everything simple, stress free, and easy to understand from start to finish. Communication was excellent, he stayed on top of everything, and always made sure we knew what was going on. He genuinely cared about helping us and made the process smooth and fast. I highly recommend Jason to anyone looking to buy a home, especially veterans using a VA loan.
Veterans United is great. I've used them twice now. When we got to our new house on closing day, there was a care package in the driveway with books and toys for the kids.
Amazing service and attention to detail. Customer never wondered what step of the process we were in.
Veteran mom and baby are officially homeowners. We are very grateful and honored for this blessing!
I appreciated the fact that I was able to connect to everything i needed for the purchase. Insurance, security system, realtor. Great experience.
