Why VLB rates are set weekly

The Texas Veterans Land Board adjusts its rate on the first business day of each week, and because it's a state-backed program the rate is frequently below the open market. It's worth checking the current week's rate before you lock.

Texas acreage with 5% down

The VLB land loan is the only program of its kind in the nation: eligible Texas veterans finance tracts of one acre or more — currently up to $200,000 — with as little as 5% down on a fixed term. Banks rarely touch raw land on those terms, and the 30%+ disability rate discount applies here too.

Buying above the conforming limit

With full entitlement, the VA imposes no loan limit on a $0-down purchase — qualification, not a cap, sets your ceiling. The VLB program tops out at $832,750, so veterans shopping above that figure typically lean on the federal VA side, where higher amounts remain possible with no down payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can my spouse be a co-borrower?

Spouses can be co-borrowers on these programs, and surviving spouses of veterans who died in service or from a service-connected disability may be eligible to use the benefit themselves.

Can I use my VA benefit more than once?

Yes. The VA home loan benefit can be reused, and your entitlement can be restored as you pay down or sell a prior VA-financed home.

Can I buy a multi-unit property with a VA loan?

Yes — you can buy up to a four-unit property with a VA loan as long as you occupy one of the units as your primary residence.

Can I buy a barndominium with a VA loan in Texas?

Often yes — the home must meet VA property requirements and the appraiser needs comparable sales, which rural Texas has more of than most places. It's a lender-by-lender call worth confirming early.

Will a VA appraisal kill my deal?

VA appraisals focus on safety, soundness, and value — not cosmetics. Most pass without issue, and when there are repairs, they're usually minor and negotiable.

Are VA loans assumable?

Yes — a buyer can assume your VA loan and its rate with servicer approval. If the buyer isn't an eligible veteran substituting entitlement, your entitlement stays tied up until the loan is paid off, so weigh that before agreeing.
