Our Promise

No Minimum
Credit Score

The VA sets no minimum — and neither do we.

VA Guidelines As Written

While most lenders add 620+ credit score overlays, we follow the VA handbook exactly as written — focusing on your residual income, payment history, and overall financial health. We've approved veterans with scores below 500.

  • No Credit Score Minimum — We follow VA guidelines, not bank overlays
  • $0 Down Payment — 100% VA financing available
  • BAH Counted As Income — We gross up your tax-free housing allowance

Debunking Fort Sam Houston PCS & BAH Myths

✕ The Myth
"My BAH isn't enough to qualify near Fort Sam Houston."
✓ The Truth
BAH is tax-free and lenders can gross it up — most E-5s and above with dependents can comfortably afford a home in the Converse or Windcrest area.
✕ The Myth
"BAH is different at Fort Sam Houston than at Lackland or Randolph."
✓ The Truth
All three JBSA installations share the same San Antonio Military Housing Area — your BAH is identical no matter which JBSA base you're assigned to.
✕ The Myth
"Older homes near Terrell Hills and Alamo Heights won't pass VA appraisal."
✓ The Truth
Many do — but our team flags Minimum Property Requirement risk on older housing stock before you write an offer, so there are no surprises at appraisal.
