Texas VLB Official Account for the Texas Veterans Land Board | Land, Home, and Home Improvement Loans, Texas State Veterans Homes and Cemeteries

Texas has always supported her Veterans in return for their military service. In 1946, Texas created the Veterans Land Board (VLB) to administer benefits exclusively for Texas veterans. Since then, the VLB has funded more than 200,000 Veteran loans. If you're a military member or Veteran, then you may qualify for special benefits provided by the State of Texas. The Texas VLB operates under the Tex

as General Land Office to provide Texas military members and Veterans land loans, home loans and home improvement loans. VLB also brings long-term care to Veterans in nine Texas State Veterans Homes located throughout the state and honors those who served in four Texas State Veterans Cemeteries.

Earlier this month, Anthony taught a special VLB TREC course to a group of REALTORS dressed for the Kentucky Derby.

It was a great class where he was able to help them learn about our VLB programs and how to better serve their Military and Veteran clients.
