VA & Texas Vet home loans for Uvalde County veterans

For Uvalde County veterans, the road to homeownership runs through two programs worth knowing well: the Texas Veterans Land Board and the federal VA loan. Combine them and you get a state-discounted rate with no down payment required. Pairing the VLB loan with your VA benefit means a discounted rate and zero down on the same home. Whether you're buying in Uvalde or elsewhere in Uvalde County, a local specialist can map your options.

Already have a VA loan? The IRRRL is your fast lane

The VA's Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL) lets you drop your rate with usually no appraisal, limited paperwork, and a reduced 0.5% funding fee. You'll need 210 days and six payments on your current loan, and your costs must recoup through savings within 36 months — a built-in protection that keeps the refinance honest.

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.

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

Do VA loans have monthly mortgage insurance?

No. VA and Texas Vet loans have no monthly PMI, which can save you hundreds of dollars a month compared with a low-down-payment conventional loan.

What is full vs. partial VA entitlement?

With full entitlement there's no VA-imposed loan limit on a $0-down purchase. Partial entitlement (if you have another active VA loan) caps your zero-down power at the county conforming limit — $832,750 in most Texas areas for 2026.

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.

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.

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.

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.
