Understanding your financing options

Conventional loans

Typically require higher credit scores and a down payment starting around 5-20%, with no upfront mortgage insurance fee.

FHA loans

Popular with first-time buyers — lower down payment minimums and more flexible credit requirements, with mortgage insurance built in.

VA loans

Available to eligible veterans and military families, often with no down payment required. Jose has experience working with veteran homebuyers.

USDA loans

Zero-down financing for eligible rural and semi-rural properties — worth checking for many South Texas addresses.

This is general information, not financial or lending advice. Loan eligibility and terms depend on your individual situation — talk with a licensed lender to confirm what you qualify for.
