Credit matters less than you think

The VA sets no hard minimum credit score. Lenders often look for around 620, but the program's residual-income test — money left over after your bills — is generous, which is why many veterans qualify when conventional lenders say no.

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.

Using your benefit on a brand-new home

Buying a completed new build from a builder works seamlessly with the Texas Vet and VA programs — same $0-down, no-PMI structure, plus a one-year builder warranty on most new homes. Building custom takes a VA construction loan or interim financing, and a VLB land loan can hold your homesite while plans come together.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do I have to move into the home?

VA and Texas Vet purchase loans require owner-occupancy. You'll generally need to occupy the home within about 60 days of closing and keep it 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.

Can I buy a barndominium with a VA loan in Texas?

Often yes — the home must meet VA property requirements and the appraiser needs comparable sales, which rural Texas has more of than most places. It's a lender-by-lender call worth confirming early.

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.

What are the VA funding fee tiers?

For purchases: 2.15% on first use with less than 5% down, 1.5% with 5-9.99% down, 1.25% with 10%+ down, and 3.3% for subsequent use with less than 5% down. The IRRRL streamline refinance is just 0.5%. Veterans receiving VA disability compensation are exempt.

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.
