VLB land loans for Texas veterans
Beyond home loans, the Texas Veterans Land Board offers a land loan that lets eligible veterans buy acreage in Texas, often with as little as 5% down, even when traditional banks won't finance raw land. It's a benefit unique to Texas.
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.
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.
