For many Texans, the dream of owning a home has felt just out of reach—especially when saving for a hefty down payment. But there’s a game-changing strategy gaining momentum across the Lone Star State: buying a home with $0 down.
At Betenbough Homes, we believe homeownership should be within reach for everyone. That’s why we’re thrilled to share how this zero-down option is turning home dreams into reality—without years of saving or sacrificing.

What Does “$0 Down” Really Mean?
In simple terms, a $0 down payment means you can purchase a new home without putting any money down upfront. Traditionally, buyers are expected to contribute 3–20% of the home’s price as a down payment. That’s a big barrier for many families, especially first-time buyers.
With our preferred lenders, a wide selection of 0% down assistance programs, and Betenbough Homes' use-it-your-way cash, that upfront cost can be removed—while still giving buyers access to brand-new, energy-efficient homes.

Why It’s Catching Fire in Texas
Texas has always been known for doing things big—and that includes home buying. Here’s why the $0 down strategy is gaining popularity here:
- Affordability: Many families are looking for budget-friendly ways to own, and this option keeps more cash in your pocket.
- Growing cities: Communities like Amarillo, Lubbock, Midland, and Odessa are booming—and so is the demand for new homes.
- Smart lending partners: Lenders familiar with Texas markets are offering tailored programs that support this strategy.
- Strong local builders: Builders like Betenbough Homes are working alongside lenders to create a seamless, low-barrier path to homeownership.

Who Qualifies for $0 Down?
This strategy isn’t limited to a select few. Many buyers—including first-time homeowners, families, and even college students—are eligible for zero-down programs. Our team can walk you through options like:
- USDA Loans (for qualifying rural areas)
- VA Loans (for eligible veterans and active-duty service members)
- Down payment assistance programs
- Builder incentives
