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.

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a minimum credit score for a VA loan?

The VA itself doesn't set a hard minimum, though many lenders look for around 620. Strong residual income and a clean recent history matter as much as the score.

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.

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.

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 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.

Do disabled veterans get a Texas property tax exemption?

Yes. Texas offers property tax exemptions that scale with your VA disability rating, and veterans rated 100% disabled may qualify for a total homestead property tax exemption. This is separate from the loan but a major ongoing savings.
