Very attentive to individual client experience
I first contacted Veterans First a few years ago when seeking and comparing pre-approvals on a property I was interested in. The bid I submitted on the home wasn't accepted. Though the seller engaged in negotiation, they ultimately chose to let their home go to their lender.
Fast forward to the present:
I found myself "The Right House". I remembered how pleasant and attentive Janelle had been, so I contacted her again. She immediately remembered me and my circumstances. She made the financing process as smooth as could be. Even while passing me to her colleagues while she went on maternity leave (congratulations Janelle!), she still stayed engaged with my case to ensure that all the loose ends were tied.
Kaitlynn Mattinson was so easy to work…
Kaitlynn Mattinson was so easy to work with and what I thought was impossible she made possible for me to secure a home loan. This took awhile as the home itself was tied up with the IRS longer than expected but she was very patient with everything that kept delaying the closing. Today it all came together and we closed. Kaitlynn was on top of this like a guard in Arlington Cemetery at the tomb of the unknown soldier.

My loan officer Janelle Lomeli
My loan officer Janelle Lomeli. Was the greatest. Patient and Professional the whole way through, and was a great guide to bring me to the finish line of this loan.
Adam Freedman House in Norfolk, NY
I worked with Adam Freedman. The experience was great Adam stayed in close contact with me the entire time. Ensuring any bumps in the road got smoothed out. Although we're separated geographically, he navigated without issue. The property I purchased had multiple lots and multiple owners. Making it a little harder to work through. Adam even spent some of his vacation time jumping through hoops. He did a great job, and I appreciate it.

Review for Nicholas Clark & Julio Chairez – Veterans First
I had a great experience working with Nicholas Clark and Julio Chairez from Veterans First. We closed on our home on July 30, and everything went smoothly from start to finish.
Nicholas was knowledgeable, responsive, and made sure I was informed every step of the way. Julio was also excellent—helpful, professional, and easy to communicate with. The entire process was handled with care and efficiency.
I’m truly grateful for their support and would absolutely recommend Veterans First, especially Nicholas and Julio, to any one looking to buy a home.
Thank you both for making this experience a great one!

Couldn't do it without Denitra Cosby
This will be the 2nd time I worked with Denitra Cosby. She was with me to purchase my home and I sought her out for refinancing. She is the absolute BEST when it comes to anything home buying related. If you ever had that little voice in your head casting doubt of taking the right or wrong path when discussing purchasing a house; you can put that voice to rest with Denitra.
She has all your answers and knows every question you're going to ask before you even think of it! She's such a trust worthy and awesome person to work with. Will definitely be back and recommend her to anyone looking to buy house to work with Denitra Cosby!
