The Texas Military & Veteran Difference

Texas Military Service Members & Veterans, Underwritten
The Way You Earn.

Texas runs one of the country's strongest hero-specific DPA programs (TSAHC Homes for Texas Heroes — built for firefighters, peace officers, EMS, teachers, and veterans). Most national lenders don't have wholesale access to it; we do. Combined with TDHCA's My First Texas Home, Texas military service members and veterans have more layered DPA options than most states.

⚠️ Lender access varies — we verify wholesale channel availability before quoting.

This page is for Texas military service members and veterans specifically — buying or refinancing anywhere in the state.

Texas Programs You Qualify For

The Doors Open To
Texas Military Service Members & Veterans.

TSAHC Homes for Texas Heroes

30-year fixed mortgage with a DPA grant OR second-lien option through the Texas State Affordable Housing Corporation. Built specifically for teachers, teacher aides, school librarians, school counselors, school nurses, peace officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, corrections officers, and veterans/active military.

TSAHC Home Sweet Texas

Broader DPA program for eligible Texas buyers who do not qualify under Homes for Texas Heroes. 30-year fixed + DPA grant or second lien.

TDHCA My First Texas Home

Texas Department of Housing & Community Affairs first-time/veteran/targeted-area program with low-interest mortgages + DPA.

TSAHC Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC)

Annual federal tax credit (up to $2,000/year) for eligible Texas buyers, stackable with the above.

VA Loans In Texas

Zero down, no PMI, reduced funding fee for disability-rated veterans. For military service members and veterans who served before joining their current field, we structure dual-eligible files that often clear closing with $0 out of pocket.

FHA, Conventional & Non-QM

For files that don't fit a DPA program — 3.5% down FHA, 3-5% down conventional, or non-QM bank-statement loans for military service members and veterans with 1099 side income. Every Texas service has one.

Why Most Lenders Get Your Income Wrong

A Texas Military & Veteran's
Real Income, Counted Right.

BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing).

BAH is fully countable as qualifying income when documented on your LES. For active-duty service members, BAH is what makes the VA loan math work — your tax-free housing allowance counts dollar-for-dollar toward your DTI. Most civilian lenders don't even know to ask for it.

Disability-Rated Veterans & Funding Fee Waiver.

Service-connected disability rating of 10% or higher waives the VA funding fee entirely — often a $5K–$15K savings on a typical purchase. We confirm the rating on the COE and structure the file to take full advantage.

Dual-Active VA.

Married service members with two VA-eligible entitlements can sometimes structure dual-active-VA financing — two zero-down purchases. We've placed dual-active files where the math beat any single-VA approach by $40K+ in lifetime interest.

PCS Moves & Bridge Financing.

Active-duty PCS moves often mean selling one home, buying another, and timing both around orders. We coordinate the sale-and-purchase together, structure bridge financing if needed, and prevent the 'two mortgages at once' problem.

Reservist, Guard, and Surviving Spouse Eligibility.

VA benefits extend beyond active duty — Reservists with sufficient qualifying service, National Guard members with title-32 federal time, and qualifying surviving spouses (often with funding fee waivers) all qualify. We screen the eligibility ladder on every file.

Texas Military & Veteran FAQ

Questions From The
Texas Service, Answered.

Can I use BAH as qualifying income for my Texas VA loan?

Yes. BAH is fully countable as qualifying income on your LES. For active-duty service members buying in Texas, your tax-free housing allowance counts dollar-for-dollar toward your DTI calculation. This is one of the most underused income types because civilian lenders don't always ask for the LES — we do.

I'm disability-rated. Do I still pay the VA funding fee?

No. Service-connected disability rating of 10% or higher waives the VA funding fee entirely. On a $400,000 purchase, that's roughly $9,000–$12,000 in savings depending on whether it's a first-use or subsequent-use VA loan. We confirm the rating on your COE and structure the file accordingly.

Can my spouse and I both use VA loans at the same time?

Yes, in many cases. Dual-active-VA is one of the most underused strategies for married service members. We document both COEs, separate the entitlement, and structure the files so underwriting clears both purchases — often resulting in two zero-down purchases or a primary + investment structure that beats any single-VA approach.
