I have been trying to get Veterans United to recognize Disabled Veterans for property Tax purposes Ryley doesnt seem to understand that in the state of New Mexico they signed in there constitution Disabled veterans are exempt based on there percentage of disability they get that percentage off of there property tax. Example Im 80% disabled so I get 80% off my property tax. I have certification from the VA of that exemption and have uploaded to the VU's portal plus a 10,000 property tax exemption. I have filed these exemptions with the Valencia County Tax Assessors office. But the property tax is still on my loan documents. Fidelity Escrow here in New Mexico knows about this tax exemption but cannot do anything it until VU fixes loan documents.
Response from Veterans United
Hi Stephen,
First, I want to thank you for your service. I’m truly sorry for the frustration this situation has caused.
I can understand how upsetting it must be to have submitted your VA disability documentation and county exemption paperwork, yet still see property taxes reflected in your loan documents. When you’ve taken the proper steps with the VA and the county assessor, you should feel confident the information is being handled correctly.
Property tax exemptions, especially those tied to disability ratings, can involve coordination between the county, escrow, and loan servicing, but that does not make it any less frustrating when things do not appear to reflect what you’ve already provided. I’m sorry this has felt like an ongoing battle.
I would really like the opportunity to personally review your file and better understand what’s happening with the documentation and escrow setup. Please reach out to me directly at 1-800-212-5200 or ClientAdvocate@vu.com. The Client Advocate team is available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday. If you contact us outside those hours, we’ll typically respond the next business day.
You’ve done your part, and you deserve clear answers. I appreciate you bringing this forward and would welcome the chance to help get clarity around it.
Sincerely,
Claire S., Client Relations Manager

Victoria is amazing. Went above and beyond at every step. Give this woman a raise and hire more like her!
The Veterans United team really made my home purchase easy. From the start they were on top of every detail. I can’t express my gratitude for the attention to details, and the professionalism demonstrated by this extraordinary group. I would recommend Veterans United to all veterans who are considering a home purchase.

These folks are awsome and made the home buying experience rather enjoyable. Thank you.
Shawn Workman came through for us. We could not have been more pleased!
What a great experience! They make it so easy with the app. No more having to fax tons of pages of information, just take a photo of the necessary documents and upload them. The app “to do” list keeps your tasks at your fingertips. The staff we dealt with were kind, courteous and extremely knowledgeable. We went from toying with buying a new home to closing in less than 2 months. I will definitely tell our friends about Veterans United.
They were pretty amazing honestly! Never bought a home before and did not understand alot early on. They were patient with me and didn't make me feel like just a number. I had a great experience and could not be happier.
Mathew has been a huge help. From the moment we purchased our home to refinancing it. My wife and I would have been lost if it wasn’t for him.

Incredibly seamless, straight forward and flawless expedited thanks to Justin!!!
I had a wonderful experience with my whole team: no complaints, no wishes for any other services. Your time is the best. I especially appreciated the checklists! I will gladly recommend you down the road. Thank you for being in my corner.
They were great at first but due to the 3 month delay on house issues they didn't respond to a request i made 3 different times. They just kinda forgot about me it seems.
VU Helped me in every way possible. They kept me updated on forms, progress and closing. Thank you VU for your patience and the opportunity to refinance.
