Build new with a one-time close
VA one-time-close construction loans fund land, construction, and the permanent mortgage in a single closing — often $0 down with full entitlement. You'll need a licensed builder (you can't be your own GC) and a fixed-price contract. If no construction lender fits, build with interim financing and refinance into a VA loan at completion.
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.
Roll energy upgrades into your VA loan
The VA's Energy Efficient Mortgage option lets you add up to $6,000 for qualifying improvements — insulation, efficient HVAC, solar screens and the like — onto a purchase or refinance. In a Texas summer, efficiency upgrades pay for themselves in utility bills, and this folds them into one fixed payment.
