No monthly mortgage insurance — ever
Unlike conventional loans with less than 20% down, VA and Texas Vet loans carry no monthly PMI. On a typical Texas home that's often $150–$250 saved every month, money that stays with your family instead of an insurer.
Funding fee tiers — and who skips them
The VA funding fee runs 2.15% on a first-use purchase with less than 5% down, drops to 1.5% with 5% down and 1.25% with 10% down, and is 3.3% for subsequent use with minimal down. IRRRLs are just 0.5%. Veterans receiving VA disability compensation, Purple Heart recipients, and eligible surviving spouses pay nothing.
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.
