INVEST IN YOUR FUTURE TODAY WITH A USDA LOAN.
USDA or Rural Development Loans aren't just for farmers or agriculture professionals. This loan type can help families without adequate housing finance the purchase of a home in a rural area and help make the dream of homeownership possible.
WHAT IS A USDA MORTGAGE LOAN?
A USDA loan, also known as a Rural Development Loan, is a government-insured home loan backed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and is designed to promote homeownership in low to moderate-income rural and suburban areas.
This type of loan requires no downpayment. Additionally, they offer competitive interest rates and can be used to purchase a primary residence.
WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS TO GET A USDA LOAN?
- The borrower must be a U.S. resident, noncitizen national or permanent resident.
- The property being financed must be in an eligible rural area as defined by the USDA Rural Development.
- The property being financed will be the borrower's permanent primary residence.
- Borrowers must have an adjusted gross income of no more than 115% of the median income in the area and must show that they have a stable income and can afford the monthly mortgage payments.
- Typically, a credit score of 640 or better is required.
USDA Loan Program Advantages:
- No downpayment is required.
- Lower interest rates compared to other loan types.
- Most borrowers are eligible to apply.
- No PMI is required. Instead, there are two other minimal fees borrowers will need to pay: an upfront guaranteed fee that is paid once at the time of closing on the loan and an annual fee that is usually rolled into the monthly mortgage payment.
