Maggie Schuh has been wonderful to work with and thanks to her, I would recommend Veterans United to everyone.
Everyone worked hard to help me buy a home. The concierge service added to the outstanding assistance for the start of the utilities a inspections.

Exceptional job. Katie was very responsive and helpful.
Our Veterans United team was wonderful to work with. They were friendly, helpful, and always quick to respond. They answered every question and concern I had without hesitation and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciated their patience and communication throughout.
Matt & his team Logan & Alex went above & beyond! They were able to close on my new home 7 days earlier, in time for movers to get me in before holiday weekend! They were in constant communication via text, email, & phone conversations! Answered all of my questions & were very knowledgeable in their work! Thank you all so much for making this so streamlined with your To do lists! Anytime I had a question I would get my answer directly! Thank you again & enjoy your holiday weekend!
Brian was awesome.
Charles McKee and Nicole we’re amazing throughout the whole process and helped me and my wife find the home that’s right for us.
My concerns are centered around the inefficient, non-transparent communication. I understand completely that things change and shift as one works through the home buying process. However, it started with getting my pre-approval wrong. Then moved into not verifying the correct zip code to measure my income vs the median income - notification that I needed to change the type of loan which would increase my Down-payment didnt come until after I paid for all inspections and appraisal. I then made the effort to call so I understood but even at that point the full impact of this switch was not disclosed. I found out a week or so before closing that the interest rate I was advised I would have, I was now going to have to pay for. I was never asked if I wanted to buy down the interest rate, it was assumed. In addition, based on my research switching loan types should have actually improved my interest rate. When bringing this up I was advised it was another team's fault that Jeff did not disclose it sooner. I have purchased and sold a home previously and this was terrible service.
My fiance is active duty and has already told everyone he knows to refrain from using Veterans United. I have also shared far and wide to stay away especially after I read reviews that depict my exact experience. Lessons on transparent communication and due diligence would greatly benefit your teams.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Angel,
I really appreciate you taking the time to outline your concerns so clearly. What you described, especially around communication and transparency, is not a small issue. I am truly sorry for the frustration and confusion this caused you.
I can understand how discouraging it must have been to start with an incorrect pre-approval, then learn about a zip code issue affecting income limits, and only later be notified about a loan type change after you had already paid for inspections and an appraisal. That kind of timing would feel overwhelming for anyone. Hearing that the full financial impact was not clearly explained, including the change to your interest rate and the assumption about buying it down, is especially concerning.
You should never feel like important decisions were made without your understanding or input. And being told it was another team’s fault does not make the experience any better. Clear, transparent communication is critical throughout the homebuying process, and I am sorry that was not your experience.
It also weighs heavily that your fiancé is active duty and that both of you have shared your experience within your community. We care deeply about the trust placed in us by service members and their families, and I hate that we let you down.
I would truly value the opportunity to review your loan file and better understand exactly what happened. If you are open to speaking further, please reach out to me directly at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. Our team is available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday, and if you contact us outside those hours, we will typically follow up the next business day.
Thank you again for your candid feedback. It matters.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager
The rate was the best I could find. We closed on time, even after it became a rush. They are experts in VA loans. So, when unique situations came up, they knew what the VA would expect, putting my wife and me at ease. They were responsive, professional, and spoke with confidence on their subject matter. Every contact I had felt genuine and honest. They treated my time and money with respect. They never tried to upsell me or questions my decision to decline options.I am a very busy person who doesn’t always have their phone on them. Everyone was comfortable speaking through text or email and always met me on my communication source. I can’t say enough for them.The way Veterans United does business is how every business should treat their customers, let alone veterans. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Malachi, Jake, Vickie, and everyone else behind the scenes that I never talked with but helped along the way.
Robert Keeley was also very good. He was very patient with all of the communications and all of the checklist processes. His was diligent in making sure all my information got to the underwriters and helped me understand exactly what they were asking of me. I am thankful for my whole team, to include Laura who stepped in and kept the process moving seamlessly when needed. I never felt like anyone dropped the ball or forgot about me. It truly was a person-centric experience and I look forward with working with the same team when it comes to buying my dream home.
Team was very proactive and engaged with us
Fantastic organization! They took away all my anxiety and fear for being a first time home owner. If I had a question they immediately had an answer. They worked tirelessly to get us taken care of.
My loan officer Mark made this process very smooth and easy for me and even caught some things I wasn't even aware of! There were no dumb questions and never a delay! Give him 10 STARS!!!
