Home loans for Bastrop County veterans and military families

The Texas Vet and VA loan programs remove the two biggest hurdles — the down payment and mortgage insurance — for those who qualify.

Your VA loan is assumable — a hidden selling point
When you sell, a qualified buyer can assume your VA loan and keep its rate, with servicer approval — a serious advantage in a higher-rate market. One caution: unless the buyer is an eligible veteran who substitutes entitlement, yours stays tied to the loan until it's paid off.
Benefits for spouses and surviving spouses
Spouses can co-borrow, and unremarried surviving spouses of veterans who died in service or from a service-connected disability may be able to use the VA home loan benefit themselves — including the funding-fee exemption.
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.
