My advice to other veterans, if your credit is holding you back, they will work with you to repair it. I started my journey with my credit in shambles but due to the lighthouse program and the tenacity at which my Veterans untied loan officer guided me, what seemed like would take years only took a few months. Owning a home seemed like a dream that would never come true but now I'm turning my new house into my family's home.
My mother always told me buying a home was tedious and aggravating. I've never called my mother a liar, but Veterans United makes me want to challenge her claim!
After having doubts of buying, my first home, veterans United was able to make their process much more easier. I will not say the same for the builders sound build wasn’t easy to work with. There were things that were promised, and never happened. But all in all my first homebuying experience wasn’t bad at all.
At first we had a horrible time with veterans United. We got a loan officer that wasn’t doing their job and then was paired with a realtor that didn’t care about us. Then we got switched over to Jen who was absolutely fantastic!!! She definitely saved the day and turned us around about veterans United.
We bought our home from overseas which can make anyone feel uneasy. The team we worked with at Veterans United far exceeded our expectations. They answered all our questions and explained ever step and number along the way. They helped ease a lot of stress that comes with the buying process. It was a great buying experience!
We are very grateful for Trish Cole! She came in at time where everyone else we had tried had failed us. Therefore, we were really apprehensive about trying another company but once we met Trish she eased our fears. My husband is a retired Army Soldier, who suffers from P.T.S.D. and just about any episode can set him off. However, everything about our home buying process went smoothly. I love the fact that you have a secure portal to place all of your documents in versus putting it in an email. This is what sets Veterans United apart from the rest. Thank you Trish for assisting us with the purchase of our lifetime!
My only feedback would be for the website user experience in the "To-Do" list. Please, add a button that simply allows you to upload documents without clicking through the "To-Do" list to figure out where it goes. As the payer, I shouldn't have to be the one that sorts documents into the correct folder. That should be done by the loan team since they are the ones that ultimately make the decision on whether or not my documents are sufficient. Other than this small bit of frustration, the entire experience was much better than I've experienced with other loan companies.
