I must say, I was a bit nervous at the beginning of my initial phone call to the local Veterans United Home Loans office. I did not know what to expect because I was pursuing the homeowner's dream alone. Years ago, My late husband and I purchased our first home together, so naturally, I had a warm voice of comfort when I became frazzled. No shade to the other loan officers, but I needed someone to assist with my particular requests and be more suited to my needs. Thankfully, Veterans United Home Loans has a nice variety of team members who can help you at your point of need. I was matched with Mrs. Phylis Gatlin and quickly discovered why she is considered a true gem on the team. I immediately became at ease and relaxed when she spoke these words to me..." So, you lookin' to buy a home." Her calm demeanor and gentle voice were exactly what I needed. The way we instantly connected was what the doctor ordered because it gave me the extra boost of confidence I so desperately lacked. Everyone Mrs. Gatlin directed me to was so helpful and thorough. I truly believe I got the privilege and honor of working with the best loan officer in the business. She walked me through every little detail until my paperwork was impeccable. I will never forget how assured Mrs. Gatlin made me feel each time she said, "Thank you for being so patient. You'll see in the end it will be all so worth it." Yes, Mam, it sure was. From the credit repair to the letters of explanation and manual underwriting to the realtor, the concierge team, and finally, the closing attorney. It was all well worth the wait. My Veterans United team, Thank you so much. You guys are one of a kind. You are changing lives one at a time.
We drove 600 miles with our almost 13 year old dog to fall in love with an old house only to have our credit union tell us no. Who would have thought that was the best thing that could have happened? Craig Bennetch, at Veteran's United took us through the whole process with nonstop knowledge and positivity. He helped us traverse the obstacles and remained calm, which kept me calm. He made it possible for us to buy that little old house for our little old dog, Xena.
