As the title states, I am interested in selecting a VA home loan lender and had a few questions.

1) Which lender did you go with?
2) What did you like about this lender?
3) What did you dislike about this lender?

I see that Veterans United seems to be one of the most commonly used lenders for VA Loans, and gets high marks. Does anyone have experience with them?

Thanks in advance.

Any bank is going to offer a VA loan. Don't assume VA-specific organizations, or "military" credit unions are going to give you a better deal.

The last two houses I bought, I used Lending Tree to compare rates-- and got rates/no points/low closing costs that beat the hell out of most places.

NBKC is our lender -- and they kept the loan to service. They didn't sell it on. We got 2.875% with very low closing, and no points -- on a VA -- in 2016. And they paid most of the Funding Fee. They were 3/4 of a point better than most banks.

You should at least try Lending Tree before committing to a bank, and see how their offer compares to the broader market.

Frankly, I see a mortgage as a commodity -- they are heavily regulated, and there really isn't much "service" they provide.
