$0 down when the Texas Vet rate is paired with your federal VA loan benefit

Plainview and the rest of Hale County fall under the same statewide VLB program — the rate is set by the state, not marked up by a local lender, so where you buy in Texas doesn't change the headline rate.

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.

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.

Why VLB rates are set weekly

The Texas Veterans Land Board adjusts its rate on the first business day of each week, and because it's a state-backed program the rate is frequently below the open market. It's worth checking the current week's rate before you lock.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a Texas Vet loan for land?

Yes. The Texas Veterans Land Board offers a separate land loan that lets eligible veterans buy land in Texas — often with as little as 5% down — which most conventional lenders won't finance.

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.

Can my spouse be a co-borrower?

Spouses can be co-borrowers on these programs, and surviving spouses of veterans who died in service or from a service-connected disability may be eligible to use the benefit themselves.

Can I buy a multi-unit property with a VA loan?

Yes — you can buy up to a four-unit property with a VA loan as long as you occupy one of the units as your primary residence.

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.

How big a tract can the VLB land loan finance?

At least one usable acre, currently up to $200,000 with as little as 5% down on a fixed term — and the 30%+ disability rate discount applies to land loans too.
