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.

Understanding the VA funding fee

The VA funding fee (about 1.5%-3.3% of the loan) replaces monthly mortgage insurance and helps keep the program running. It can be rolled into your loan, and if you receive VA disability compensation you're exempt entirely, one of the biggest reasons disabled veterans save so much.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I build a new home with my VA benefit?

Yes. VA one-time-close construction loans fund the land, build, and permanent mortgage in a single closing, often with $0 down. A licensed builder and fixed-price contract are required; fewer lenders offer the product, so shop carefully.

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.

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.

What is a VA Certificate of Eligibility (COE)?

The COE verifies you meet the VA's service requirements and shows whether you have full or partial entitlement. We can help you pull it quickly, having it ready up front speeds up your approval.
