Burke is amazing and recommend for increase in responsibility. I have several invisible disabilities and he was patient with my stoopid questions and helped me through the process better than any lender before and this is my fifth house. In my many questions doing electronic signature he was always readily available. He was actually at my signing! Because of his presence it went extremely smooth and he gave me confidence I was protected in case I had a question. Through the to do list and understanding documents I had a lot of communication with Burke and despite him having multiple clients he was always available with the most utmost professionalism I’ve experienced from any lender. I’ve been in customer service for over 30 years. Please promote. He is the face of veterans united and you don’t want to lose this asset. He is ready to receive promotion or new responsibilities.
I had an amazing time working with Veterans United, they made sure I was supported every step of the way. They made their app very SIMPLE to use, it gives you a to-do list of tasks that you need to complete prior to moving onto the next steps of the home buying process! I worked with Burke and Kayla who are equally wonderful and very knowledgeable, they have no problem slowing down and being able to make sure you understand completely the documents you are signing!
