Stacking the VLB program with your VA benefit

You don't have to choose. Many Texas veterans pair the VLB program's discounted, weekly-set rate with the VA loan's $0 down and no PMI — getting a lower rate AND no money down on the same purchase. The right structure depends on your situation.

Manufactured and modular homes qualify

A VA loan can finance a manufactured home built to HUD code on a permanent foundation and titled as real property — in Texas, via a Statement of Ownership filed with the TDHCA. Modular homes are even simpler: the VA treats them like site-built houses on standard terms.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the VLB offer a home improvement loan?

Yes. The VLB home improvement loan can finance repairs and upgrades on your existing primary residence with fixed terms. Some project types are excluded, so confirm scope eligibility before signing contractor agreements.

How is BAH counted toward qualifying?

Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) can often be counted as effective income toward qualifying, which can meaningfully increase the home price you're approved for.

Do disabled veterans get a Texas property tax exemption?

Yes. Texas offers property tax exemptions that scale with your VA disability rating, and veterans rated 100% disabled may qualify for a total homestead property tax exemption. This is separate from the loan but a major ongoing savings.

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.

How long does a VA loan take to close?

Most VA loans close in about 30–45 days — comparable to conventional loans. Getting your COE early and responding quickly to document requests keeps it on schedule.

Can a friend or partner co-borrow on my VA loan?

A spouse or another eligible veteran can co-borrow normally. A non-spouse civilian co-borrower makes it a 'joint loan' needing prior VA approval and usually a down payment on the civilian's share — possible, but plan ahead.
