Texas Veterans Loan Programs

Did you know that Texas has special programs for its Texas Veterans? I am proud my native state of Texas offers this program to its Veterans. My very first Real Estate transaction years ago about 1998 was helping a Texas Veteran, a Marine with a purchase through this program. The Texas Veterans Housing Assistance Program or VHAP is available for Texas Veterans. I really like the Texas General Land Office’s VLB or Veteran’s Land Board website – glo dot texas dot gov. It is so true that since Texas was a Republic in the 1800’s, Texas has supported her veterans. Historically, some in my family received land for military service in the Texas Revolution. Nowadays, the Texas Veterans Land Board or VLB provides special loans for Texas Veterans, both for houses and for land. The VLB also holds forfeited land sales. The Texas Veteran’s Land Board website also lists Veterans Cemetaries and includes photos of the latest cemetary in Corpus Christi.

Texas Veterans National VA Loan Programs

My VA Specialist lender team can help you understand the VA program the United States government offers. My VA Specialist lender team is led by a United States Marine Corps Veteran! I am proud to have helped many Veterans buy and sell property with this VA program. The VA loan to purchase a home offers no downpayment and no MI or Mortgage Insuranse. The VA also offers a streamlined VA refinance loan.
