USDA Loan

What Is an USDA Loan?

Without over-complicating things, a USDA Loan is very similar to a VA Loan, but with different qualification requirements.

The Section 502 Guaranteed Loan Program assists approved lenders in providing low- and moderate-income households the opportunity to own adequate, modest, decent, safe, and sanitary dwellings as their primary residence in eligible rural areas. Most importantly, what does this mean for qualified borrowers? No money down for those who qualify!

USDA Loans include:

    • 0% down
    • Low monthly mortgage insurance
    • Primary residence eligibility only
    • Qualifying income restrictions
    • Area restrictions

What is an eligible rural area?

Utilizing the USDA’s Eligibility Site, you can enter a specific address for determination or just search the map to review general eligible areas.
