Stacking the VLB program with your VA benefit

You don't have to choose. Many Texas veterans pair the VLB program's discounted, weekly-set rate with the VA loan's $0 down and no PMI — getting a lower rate AND no money down on the same purchase. The right structure depends on your situation.

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy a condo with a VA loan?

Yes, if the condo project is VA-approved. Many Texas projects already are, and lenders can request approval for ones that aren't — just build extra time into your contract.

Does the VLB offer a home improvement loan?

Yes. The VLB home improvement loan can finance repairs and upgrades on your existing primary residence with fixed terms. Some project types are excluded, so confirm scope eligibility before signing contractor agreements.

Can a VA loan finance a manufactured home?

Yes, if the home was built to HUD code (June 15, 1976 or later), sits on a permanent foundation, and is titled as real property — in Texas that means a Statement of Ownership filed with the TDHCA.

Can I use my VA benefit more than once?

Yes. The VA home loan benefit can be reused, and your entitlement can be restored as you pay down or sell a prior VA-financed home.

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 a friend or partner co-borrow on my VA loan?

A spouse or another eligible veteran can co-borrow normally. A non-spouse civilian co-borrower makes it a 'joint loan' needing prior VA approval and usually a down payment on the civilian's share — possible, but plan ahead.
