Occupancy: this is for your home
VA and Texas Vet purchase loans are for primary residences. You'll generally move in within 60 days of closing and keep the home as your primary residence — they aren't for investment properties, though you can buy a multi-unit home and live in one unit.
Texas property tax breaks for disabled veterans
Texas rewards service with property tax exemptions that grow with your VA disability rating, up to a full homestead exemption for veterans rated 100% disabled. On top of a discounted Texas Vet rate, this can save thousands every year you own the home.
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.
